Our Divine Download for Sunday May 3, 2020 is Take the Next Step Now and Parental Care from the Butterfly Oracle Cards for Life Changes. Take the Next Step Now is an action card. If you have felt stalled or stuck, this card is offering you a solution and taking that action is the solution. Even small steps are still steps forward. You heart will lead you toward your next steps. Hearts will never pull you backwards, they will always push you forward. It may also be timeto take a leap of faith and allow your spirit to soar in doing so. If taking action feels daunting or overwhelming in any way, or if you really truly cannot see what the next action step may be, break your goals down into tiny lil steps and focus only on today and the present moment instead of worrying about or thinking about what must be done tomorrow, next week, or next month. There is an element here of needing to nurture yourself too. Yes, it is possible that the Parental Care card could be referring to your actual parents or people in similar roles for whom you care deeply. However, it is far more likely that this card is asking you to parent yourself in a way. To put yourself first and give yourself the nurturance that you need in order to move forward in unrestricted ways. We see readings or receive guidance from time to time encouraging us to mother ourselves, but we never see much about potentially "fathering" ourselves. It's just not a thing and there are some odd connotations there. But masculine energy is all about taking action. It's about taking meaningful, guided action - connected action. And we can connect to our divine parents, i.e. the Universe, in order to connect into our Universal guidance and wisdom. That is the nature of the parental relationship that needs to be nurtured. Connection to source. Communion with the Divine. Through that connection, all limitations are removed and the resources that you need to take the next step will come to you exactly as you need them. It's all a matter of putting one foot in front of the other.
