Week of August 1st: Six of Swords: Don't Tip The Canoe BB (eps.142)

Welcome to August, mystics. 🌟

Rest, Receive & Ride the August Currents

In this week’s episode of It’s Giving Mystical, Kirsten invites you into the tender energy of the Six of Swords... an archetype of divine protection, sacred transition, and permission to rest your over-efforting self.

Fresh off a soul-rich, seven-hour (jkjk) August Energy episode (if you haven’t listened yet... go treat yourself), this shorter transmission offers a moment of calm reflection and gentle guidance as we move from July’s intensity (Chariot + Tower) into the dreamy, devotional waters of Strength and the Star. ✨

What if strength wasn’t about gripping, but about being of joyful service?
What if power looked like resting in the arms of the divine?
What if your only job right now… was to not tip the canoe?

This week, we explore:
💫 The Six of Swords as the minor arcana of the Star—a call to receive protection and ease
💫 How to recognize safe passage and let yourself actually be supported
💫 The difference between necessary action vs unnecessary efforting
💫 Why obsessing over the big question ("Should I stay or go?") is often a distraction
💫 A reminder that August is a month of manifestation—so move gently, and let it come to you

Plus:
⚔️ A sneak peek at this month’s Mystic Rising archetype: the Warrior. We’ll be working with the energy of righteous focus, sacred fight, and graceful discipline. Our first call is this Tuesday—join us if you're ready to claim what’s worth protecting.
🌿 And an exciting update: Shaman School is almost full! We may have room for two more beloveds. Reach out if you feel the call to this life-changing journey.

Take this episode as your cosmic permission slip to slow down, receive, and trust the tides. Let August love on you. You’ve earned it.
