Trusting the Current
Can I trust what I feel — or will it lead me astray?
What This Might Be
A flicker of instinct you ignore.
A wave of sadness you push away.
A surge of anger you don’t want to believe is yours.
You’ve been taught that emotions are chaos.
Unreliable. Dangerous.
But maybe they’re just currents — not right or wrong,
just alive.
Maybe the danger isn’t feeling.
Maybe it’s disowning your own compass.
Graceful Reflection
Many of us were taught that logic = safety, and emotion = risk.
So we second-guess, suppress, or shame ourselves for feeling too much.
But emotions don’t demand obedience — they ask for listening.
They’re signals, not scripts. Invitations, not orders.
This card invites you to explore:
What would it mean to trust your feelings — not as facts, but as real?
Soft Places to Land
What feeling keeps returning, even when I try to silence it?
How have I learned to distrust or dismiss my emotions?
What small evidence do I have that listening to my feelings helped me — even once?
Gentle Grounding
The Compass Check-In
Close your eyes.
Think of a recent feeling you judged or ignored.
Now ask:
What was this feeling trying to show me?
Did I feel pulled toward truth… or away from it?
Can I thank it, even if I don’t act on it?
Let your body decide what “true” feels like.
Not loud. Just steady.
Closing Whisper
Emotions don’t need to be perfect to be true.
You don’t need to follow every feeling —
just let them show you where you’re not numb anymore.
Trust isn’t about control.
It’s about connection.
