Soul Retrieval
Hello My Steem Family!
This may be a bit too deep for some folks, so bear that in mind if you wish to read further. This is actually a topic I have been contemplating for myself lately, so it also comes in line with my own self awareness.
Sometimes life can take a funny turn and we may not be who we thought we wanted to be or who we thought we were. Maybe we have allowed bitterness or harshness to become a part of our personality, or lost a part of our sense of humor. It can get a bit deeper and we may feel we are downright hard on life, or don't even realize that some of these negative traits have taken over. Well, this reading is for those that would like to get that back.
All of my readings are geared towards a healing; breaking through mental, spiritual, or emotional blocks that will assist us in overcoming every day obstacles.
If this is your first time swinging by, my Medicine Card Monday initiative is my positive intention to pull a card of healing or medicine for the community. This is different than tarot in that the cards I use are on the medicinal aspect of humanity other than the most common cards found in a tarot deck.
The decks I use are The Wild Unknown - Animal Spirit, Mystical Shaman Oracle, and the Chakra Wisdom Oracle. The cards will assist in helping those interested, find comfort in things going on in our community and the world we are now dealing with. Namely, issues around the world, astronomical, or overcoming health issues of all sorts, etc., maybe just something out of balance that we are feeling on any particular day that needs guidance.
By pulling a card for Steemit this will in turn assist with my Medicine training, give back to the community, and help those seeking answers. I will take some of the reading from guidebooks provided with the cards, but primarily give intuitive and medicinal words to help our community. We all have days when we need encouragement, inspiration, and comfort.
The card I picked for the week of June 11, 2018, is as follows:
The Card
Starting in a sacred space with a clear mind and body I pulled Number 49 the Soul Retrieval card for the Steemit community from Mystical Shaman Oracle deck by Alberto Villoldo, Collet Baron-Reed, and marcela Lobos.
The Reading
Let me begin by saying that some people would like to tie this into a shamanic experience, and as you may know by now I do not prescribe to that way of teaching. I've said it enough in other blogs that I do not feel I need to repeat my feelings about that form of teaching.
What I will share is the way to reconnect with a part of our self that need to be reconnected. One thing that is interesting about this aspect of who we are is that we never lost it to begin with. If anything, it was just placed in the background so we could grow and learn other aspects of who we are. This may seem like a very simple explanation, but most things are very simple but our human brain makes it much more difficult that it needs to be.
So how do we reconnect ...
The Essence
Soul retrieval is a practice that helps you recover a part of your self -- your energy, your enthusiasm, or your innocence -- that you have lost. At first, we'll use soul retrieval to recover from our hurts and heal our childhood wounds. Later, we learn to journey to recover our original nature -- that self that never left the Garden of Eden, who still speaks to the rivers, to the trees, and to God. When we return to Eden, we are whole again.
The Invitation
You are no longer fragmented; you are one with Creation. You have healed the cause of the pain you feel, so you do not need to dwell on it any loner. Really, it's true! If you are still hovering over an old wound, find a new flight path. Don't be distracted with the little stuff you've already mastered. Go for the big one, the journey back to Eden.
The Medicine
When did you compromise what you truly believed in to be loved or accepted by someone? Think back over your life and find the time or times when this happened. Vow never to compromise your integrity again. What have you agreed to in the name of love that you know is deeply wrong? Make it right this instant.
Do we perhaps see others and want to follow their lead on Steemit as if we are back in high school? Do we find ourselves doing things that might not exactly vibrate with our soul whispers? What about writing things we do not believe to be true or follow the lead of someone for big upvotes or recognition?
Now is the time to get back to who we truly are and listen to what our soul has been telling us. If you have not been listening to your soul or have no idea what I am even suggesting here, then go to a quite place and meditate. Find your center and listen to that voice from within, what did it say ...
More often then not, that voice is guiding us to live truth and light. Bring the parts of your soul back to your center and reunite what you have kept hidden in the shadows. Peace.
I hope you liked the reading for this week. If so, please leave a comment below. I'd love to hear what you think (but not if you think it's all BS!) That's typical Eagle Spirit humor right there.
If you would like a personal Medicine Card reading:
Send 2 STEEM or 2 SBD per card (STEEM preferred).
Choose a deck and spread: Animal Spirit (1, 2, 3, 4, or 13 card spread), Chakra Wisdom (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 7 card spread), or Mystical Shaman Oracle (1, 3, or 4 card spread.)
Each person is given a special one-on-one healing energy session with a reading sent from a Reiki Master Teacher (that be me), and a Native American ceremony is included.
Photos will be provided and explained. Please do not share these publicly.
You can find me on Discord under the name Eagle Spirit #4491, or through the group @ifc Marketplace under Eagle Spirit's energy work channel.
Have a glorious week and come back next Monday for another Medicine Card reading! Peace.
Greetings,
Thank you for stopping by to read my blog. I’m a First Nation member of the Hopi & Apache Native American tribes, Medicine woman in-training, first time blogger since November 2017, (right here on Steemit), paralegal, researcher, and writer based in the Mountains of Colorado, USA. I work closely with fellow planktons and minnows in a few groups by helping them adjust to Steemit and curate quality content. I’m especially interested in finding others who love natural medicine originating from ancient practices, gold and silver, energy work, and the spirit world. Additionally, I'm the creator of #MedicineCardMonday, so if you are interested in receiving a Native American blessing stop by my blog every Monday, or just say hello!
See you soon, @eaglespirit
Energy therapy is a natural method of energy balancing, but is not meant as a substitute for medical, or psychological diagnosis and treatment.
Energy practitioners do not diagnose conditions, nor do they perform medical treatment, prescribe substances, or interfere with the treatment of a licensed medical professional.
Energy therapy or any other natural healing therapy should not compete with medical doctors and their treatments. All therapies are meant to complement medical treatments.

Thank you for your card reading @eaglespirit, all I can think about is that since I will be forced to stay far away from my wife I won't be blessed by any soul retrieval.. but this theme is so important, I always say that we have to live abandoning our masks, remembering our true self.. I donnow if it may connect with your thoughts here 😅 All the best!
what does your wife have to do with YOUR soul retrieval? Its not her soul its yours 😳
the mask is not our soul and something we may have disconnected with from within ourself. did you read the message? maybe a language barrier🤔
Sorry, why are you attacking me? I'm not used to commenting without reading. I think that I'm a decent steemian that was starting to be curious about you and your blog. I read your message well, It's quite unpleasant that you ask me that as I was sincerely commenting on something that I enjoyed. By how I write, do I give you the idea that I suffer from any language barrier? Is it possible that I'm trying to contribute and take the whole thing from another perspective... or I'm just a foreign that comments without understanding? About my wife: I feel that my soul is deeply entwined and one with hers and I worked by analogy since you wrote that soul retrieval is about recovering a part that we lost.. well I'm loosing a lot by this distance inside myself. Maybe it's a leap from what you wrote about - since you're talking more strictly about innocence, enthusiasm or our inner child, if I'm allowed to say - but I feel that it should be ok if I feel like extending the concept to something that your words made resound inside me..am I wrong? About the masks, I believe that it's just another point of view as when we disconnect or become fragmented inside our soul we also loose our authenticity, hence the mask. Thanks again for your article.
who is attacking? i was asking for clarification because i didnt understand your response. thank you for clarifying your perspective.
Hey @eaglespirit :) I think so many lose their true selves navigating our 20's and 30's, where we seem to do what others think we should or at least what is culturally expected from us. My wisdom came about in my early 40's with a lot of work, but I found my soul again and have listened to its' wisdom ever since :)
Thanks for another great reading my friend!
hey lynn thanks for dropping by and taking a read. i appreciate your support and comment. i do agree about how it might be human nature to "lose our self" i kind of got a feeling like that too at first, then i dug deep and realized this has more to do with lessons learned that have now been placed on the "back burner" so to speak. pieces of our self that come together in this time and space to make us whole.
i agree about the age thing, and 40s wisdom, this is true with age ...
thanks for the thanks! hehe
blessings,
eagle
That's an interesting way to look at it @eaglespirit! I think we're almost speaking the same language haha, but our younger selves would of course ignore lessons learned or not value their importance...not see the big picture.
young folks dont learn squat 🤣🤣
“ignore, value, importance” ——> exactly
anyhoo this is speaking of when we mature and learn, many people do not. how many people for instance are “awake”? this is along those lines. those that have learnt the lesson to not lie, cheat or steal, etc.
@eaglespirit I am very glad I came across your article and I am one of your fans now. Soul retrieval, this a good meditation theme for me, especially at this time, when I am recovering from a horrobile gallbladder attack, almost got a surgery. Thank you for this interesting read, and looking forward for more!
oh thank you kindly star! :)
i'm so glad you are okay, a few of my friends have had these attacks and i hear they are super painful. self healing is definitely possible; diet, exercise, clean water. blessings to you, eagle
