A Little Waratah Wisdom
Anyone who has spent time beside an Australian creek knows that the most magical moments are often the unexpected ones.
A flash of blue from a kingfisher.
A dragonfly landing nearby.
A platypus appearing briefly before disappearing beneath the water again.
The bush teaches us that wonder cannot be scheduled.
It arrives when we are paying attention.
Waratah Witch Reflection
What is your intuition trying to tell you?
What idea keeps returning to your thoughts?
What dream have you been quietly carrying within your heart?
The Page of Cups invites you to listen.
Not to the loud voices of fear or doubt.
But to the softer voice of possibility.
Your heart may know something your mind has not yet caught up with.
Trust it.
The creek is flowing.
The moon is rising.
And something beautiful may be waiting just around the next bend.
