Choose the Gaia Oracle card that calls to you the most, and then click on READ MORE for the reveal to learn what the week has in store for you.
Card #1: Purification (Fire)
What is it that your heart truly desires? What is missing from your life? In order for you to get the answers you must look inside your heart - but you already knew that. Fear has been holding you back, and you aren't sure if you are ready to listen. You have to face your fear - something in your life is not working out and it is never going to get any better if you don't face it head on. Close your eyes and relax. Picture a flame, warming your heart and soul - and then burning away all the fear that you are feeling. Now what does your heart say?

Card #2: Loss
This card signifies a loss or dissapointment of some kind. Perhaps a hope or dream you have been nurturing now seems destined to fail, a partnership comes to an end or your love moves away. Yet this card also signifies resurrection, so do not lose all hope. Gaia, the mother earth, oversees this whole event, feel her loving guidance. The wheels of life keep turning - life is never still and every transformation turns the wheel a little closer to the starting point. There is no end without a new beginning.

Card #3: Eternal Dance
The lady on this card feels at one with nature. She is in tune to the rhythm of the earth and it's changing cycles. She does not resist the forces of nature, yet sways in the wind.  And though her body sways, she is firmly planted in the Earth - poised, diginified and balanced. She has shown up in your reading today to remind you to loosen up and be flexible. Be open to new ideas, accept that it is natural for things to change. Do not resist life's natural flow. If the path you are on seems all uphill, perhaps you simply need to find a new way. Life need not be as difficult as you are making it!

Card #4: Apprehension
It's time to get going. Nothing to fear! Take the first step and just do it. You will find that it will all work out for you in the end. The longer you wait, the harder it will be. It's understandable that you are unsure of yourself, the first step is always the hardest. You have much to offer, and as you move out into the world you will be able to see this more clearly. Be brave - because even if you make mistakes you will be well recieved. Treat each day as an opportunity to learn. As your confidance increases, so too will your self esteem and success. Do not doubt yourself!
