The May 2022 Reading
If you are here, reading this, then these cards have meaning for you. Enjoy.
Well, here we are in May. You're not imagining it. Time is speeding up. There is a lot going on for many of us. It brings to mind getting thrown in a wash (or riptide??) and just having to go with it because it's senseless and somewhat futile to fight against the tide. You will land safely where you are meant to be, whether you like it or not!
Stay well, stay safe, be kind and look after yourself and those you love.
Share your experiences on The Ocean Oracle Facebook page (if you feel so inclined...). The link is just above, to the right.

42 Sea Heather RESILIENCE
The Story
Her childhood had been rocky. She felt alone for much of it, coming into her life through the kindness of strangers. Those strangers were now mostly friends. They were lifelines to her and came at the most unexpected moments, in the most unexpected guises. Her life now was steady and she was proud of where she was. There had been struggles and triumphs, sadness and joy, grief and celebration. But she had trust and faith in life and that force now shone through her. One of her annual rituals to honor her resilience came at the flowering time of the sea heather. Each summer she would harvest a bunch of sea heather and gift it to someone in her life who had been inspirational to her during the past year. She chose sea heather because of its own resilience - it grew in salty areas, undeterred by the saline conditions. It was hearty and unassuming in its gifts and its flowers were subtle yet stunning. And even after it was harvested and out of its growing conditions, it continued to hold forth its grace and beauty.

The Messages
Do you need to toughen up against your environment? Are you wanting to hide your gifts because you do not feel strong enough? Let your beauty and grace shine through in even the most extreme environments. Do not let your resilience be unbecoming. Use it as a beautiful strength to get you through dark times. Remember that tenderness, grace and beauty reside in all.

New Year Ocean Oracle Spread for 2022
The overall theme for 2022 is that there will be a change to how we gather and move. In a good way! We come to realise that the way we've been doing things hasn't been working and we need to almost go back to go forward.
The first card I drew, that which speaks to the overall theme of 2022, was 37 Dune Grass GATHERER. This felt really good as we are asked to revisit how we look at and perceive our situations. And also what will be more healthy for our ecosystems going forward. There are reasons things work, and reasons they don't. Having an understanding of some of the underlying principles may help us to move forward with clarity and grace, instead of anger and frustration.
The card that came forward as the energy or message to support GATHERER was 41 Turtle PROTECTION. A perfect card of support as it really is all about support in itself. We need to ask for help, and allow help, in order for us to be the best versions of ourselves. If we are to gather and move and flow in the best possible way then we may very much need to trust others to help us do that. We are stronger together. Ask for help. Allow help. Be grateful for the help that shows up.
The card representing the energy which might impinge on us in 2022 was 36 Seagull FAITH. I liked this card in this position because I think it more offers us a solution - draw on our FAITH to move forward. The impingement comes more if we don't allow our faith - our faith in our ability to look after ourselves and ask for what we need, when we need it.
It's a hopeful reading. It's an encouraging reading. There is change afoot and there is support for us moving forward.
So, get your skates on and make the moves you've been aching to make. This year will support you in gathering, movement and flow. 💙
Ocean blessings to you in 2022. Go forth into your heart and journey well!
