Why the topic of relationships here at Create The Leap? There is no escaping the importance of relationships if we are to grow, prosper and build a business.
In working with the cards, the topic of relationships kept coming up for my clients. Besides using the yearly forecast for planning and navigating each year, my clients wanted to understand why certain people were acting as they were, or why their relationship was having issues.
The unique thing about using this system is that within all the many cards we have in our yearly forecast (we can have as many as 68 cards at play during our year), some represent the people that will be a major influence on our year.
The best way to explain this is with an example from one of my clients.
She was approached by a friend who asked her if she wanted to do some part time work for someone. She said sure, and went to meet this person.
There was an immediate connection and it quickly went from her doing the part time job, to managing the part time work, to becoming this person’s personal assistant. Then it jumped into a business partnership. It grew fast and seemed odd to some people who knew her.
It could’ve been a disaster. It wasn’t an easy job or relationship and much drama ensued. But, she knew his birth card. He was her Ruling card. As well, his card was in her forecast as her “challenge” card.
Because he was her ruling card, they were mirroring something to each other that they themselves needed to see and deal with, or stop suppressing. And, in knowing that he was her “challenge” for the year, she could handle things from a higher perspective.
She could see what he was teaching her and what she needed to teach him. There didn’t need to be drama that was hurtful or a long, drawn out relationship with issues. It was a temporary situation that gave both of them an opportunity to grow, have, be and do something they needed.
And because she knew what his birth cards were, she knew how he thought, what motivated him and why he did what he did.
They parted ways when the time for their relationship came to an end – easily and with no harm. There was acknowledgment of what had been a successful time working together.
It could’ve been one of those stressful, hurtful, insane, crazy-making relationships. Instead, it was productive and a part of soul-growth for them both.
Regardless of who we are dealing with in our life – spouse, lover, sibling, parent, child, co-worker, friend, neighbor…we are being shown something that can benefit us. We are being shown an “aspect” of Source in each and every person we encounter.
Our relationships come in a multitude of ways: as lovers, partners, friends, family, community and work.
As a Creative, we must understand the relationship with ourselves, our creativity/muse and with our fans/clients.
There is no escaping the importance of relationships if we are to grow, prosper and build a business.
I decided to make the topic of Relationships a priority here at Create The Leap for all of these reasons. It is a large part of my work with the cards and ‘relationship connections’ is a large part of building a platform as a Creative. It is what marketing is really all about.
If we are to have a mindset for success, we need to have a healthy relationship with our self, our Self, our creativity and Source – because, really, all of those are one and the same.
I also have a confession to make. I’m a romantic. I love the topic of romantic relationships and how to make our relationships better. That said – I’m adding this aspect of relationships as well.
After all, we create the leap to all the things we love and desire, yes?
Therefore, I’ve added a new category to my blog posts and I’ll be adding this topic as a resource for my Soulmancing Inner Circle tribe and as a significant part of my Readings and work with the cards.
