Good Morning, Witchy Loves ❤️ Many of you will know that I work with past lives and the Akashic Records, and I haven't really applied that to my work or readings on the page for a while - so today, this one is based on the Akashic Records.
This will not apply to everyone - but if it resonates, you will feel it vibrate inside your soul.
I've drawn the Four of Swords.
When I see this card and apply it to a connection with the Akashic Records, it immediately tells me about a deep need for rest and retreat that you've been carrying forward. In a past life, it's very likely you were a warrior, a leader, or someone who faced relentless conflict, adversity and confrontation.
And this wasn't just a physical battle, either; it was a constant mental and emotional struggle.
There was, without a doubt, an immense pressure to always be ready to fight for what's right, and to carry the burdens of others without a break. There was no true peace or chance to put down your metaphorical sword and truly heal. The justice sensitivity around you is real, and it stems from a past life experience.
This old energy shows up in your current life as a hypervigilence and a real struggle or total inability to relax. You might feel guilty for taking a break, or you might find yourself constantly planning, worrying, and preparing for the next challenge, even when there isn't one.
The Four of Swords shows that your mind is still caught in a cycle of overthinking and mental exhaustion. Remember that you do not need to be the load bearer or the one to fix everything. This isn't any form of karmic punishment - it's a pattern of behaviour that you have learned, perfected and carried forward from an old reality. Your soul is still holding onto that protective, but ultimately draining, instinct.
The advice to clear this karma is right there in the card itself - rest, reflect, and retreat. You must consciously choose to put your sword down, uncrossing those in the image, and clearing the energetic flow.
This isn't about giving up - infact, it's so far from giving up or defeat - it's about surrendering that need to always be in control of everything or on high alert at all times.
It's time for a real break, not just a few minutes - but a day or even a week where you do nothing but recharge your mind, body and spirit.
Disconnect from technology, find quiet moments for meditation or just to be still, and give yourself permission to do absolutely nothing without guilt.
The karma is cleared by intentionally disconnecting from old energy, so a form of severance, and creating the peace that your past-life self never had.
By embracing peaceful rest - you teach your soul that it is safe to relax, and in doing so, you can finally heal the energetic exhaustion you've been carrying for so long.
Will you still feel hypervigilant? Maybe. Some people learn to welcome this as a skill to recognize patterns, or analyse things, find mistakes or weak spots. Could you still experience a need for order, structure, routine, and expected outcomes? Perhaps. People again can use this to support in roles in which they can prepare, organize, manage or supervise.
It's the severity and frequency of which they cause you challenges or distress, the unhealthy relationships with these skill which change - not the skills themselves.
✨❤️✨ Peace & Love ✨❤️✨
