This feather brings you a message as sibilant a whisper. Soft as an opening between the worlds. A gossamer strand eading you back out of the maze, a bread crumb on the trail toward your true self. When the paths ahead have become obscured, when the checks won’t clear and the wolves are at the door – how do we know the difference between time to keep the faith, and time to seek safer ground?
With what language does the part of you that knows the subtle
answer speak to the part of you that’s out pounding the pavement hustling to make it all work?
A Sibylant Sister will often find that important messages come through the soft feathery whisper at the edges of things. A lyric in a song. A book title facing out on a dusty shelf. An opportunity mentioned in passing. A sudden knowing that pads in on silent feet.
This is not the white-knuckled kind of staying the course. Neither stamina nor force create this path. This is a wisdom born of openness. Allowing. An all-encompassing kind of looking and listening that spots the unlikely answer.
If you’ve drawn this card, it’s a reminder that you do know the way. Listen for the Sibylance inside you. Follow the clues left on the trail. You are speaking to you. Don’t forget to listen.
