Life Review

Card: “Life Review”
From: Archangel Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue, Ph.D.

On the card: “Archangel Jeremiel: ‘Take inventory of your life, and resolve to change or heal anything that is imbalanced.’”

Well, this is the third day in a row for an Archangel card to be chosen randomly. Coincidence? No, not a chance, since I don’t believe in coincidences when it comes to tarot/psychic guidance cards. They are telling a story. And their timing is directly related to what’s going on in our lives.

So, Life Review. Most people at the beginning of the year and also around their birthdays take an inventory of their life, and where they are in it. So now is a perfect time to look at one’s life.

Have you accomplished everything you wanted to get done within the past year? Is there anything that you have started that could be moving along a little faster? What about the things you’ve yet to start?

There is also the physical inventory of our ‘stuff’. I’d say that most of us have too much ‘stuff’ in our lives. Is now the time to release some of our excess ‘stuff’?

Perhaps make a list of what you’d still like to get done. It’s important not to get down on yourself if you think you are not where you would like to be. Keep it upbeat and positive, and know that you are capable of doing a good job. You are doing a good job. You’re doing the best that you can.

Perfectionism often keeps us from achieving our goals, since we feel if we can’t do it perfectly at this time, then ‘now’ is not the right time to do it. I’m always waiting for the perfect time. Are you? Could now be the perfect time for taking on an imperfect task? And in the end, when you complete the task, if it’s done – is it really imperfect? If it’s done, it’s done. And if it’s done – that’s ‘great’! So should we be striving for greatness rather than perfection? I think we might be onto something! Are there ways in your life, where you’d usually be going for ‘perfect’, but that you can strive for ‘great’ instead? Is it easier to be ‘great’ than to be ‘perfect’? And are there various degrees of greatness rather than just one degree of perfection?


Today, instead of just looking at what you haven’t done yet, look at what you have accomplished and thank yourself for being so ‘great’!

Have an awesome day!
Love,
Val ♥
