Co-Creative Mandalas have a vibration that anchors, activates specific qualities, and represents something about ourselves, the natural world, and the energy in the universe at a particular time. This year the mandalas support Aligning with Wisdom,
within ourselves,
with the natural rhythms in nature,
and with the Great Mandala.
May 1st (Beltane in Celtic tradition) marks the heart of spring, the mid-point between spring equinox and summer solstice when the earth is alive with possibility, promise, and potential. Throughout the next few weeks nature is inviting us into a magical time of flowering and growth.
According to a post on the Emerald Lotus website, the name "Beltane" is thought to originate from the Old Irish words Bel, meaning "bright" or "brilliant," which refers to the Celtic sun god Belenus. And tene, meaning "fire."
In traditional Celtic traditions, this day is associated with rituals that promote abundance, embrace love, encourage growth, and celebrate the return of summer.
You're being called to open yourself to life's beauty and potential, much like a flower turning its face to the warming sun. This is a wonderful time to celebrate the joy and pleasure of being alive.
This is a powerful transition in nature's cycle. The slower beginnings of spring are blossoming into full expression - trees are showing green new leaves and vibrant blossoms, flowers are showing their colorful blooms, and the air is filled with the softness of spring showers. This is nature's most expansive time, when creative energy flows through all things and life force surges in every branch, stem, and root.
May is here to help us ground, get intentional, and remember our most expansive self. This energy, and vibrant growth is also happening within...our innate power to bring our visions for the year into reality, even if you aren't aware of it. Because the energy is so vibrant and powerful, this time also offers an opportunity to remember to ground, reflect, and reset as we co-create this month.
We can experience the magic that is happening now when we stay present and open. I invite you to connect with this potent seasonal energy through this Co-Creative Mandala Oracle card reading. This is a powerful time to get creative, try new things, and begin envisioning what’s next.
This Co-Creative Mandalas Oracle three card reading for the collective taps into the energy of the month so we can navigate the weeks ahead with grace and ease. This month is all about connecting with your creativity, with abundance, with who you are and who you are becoming, and aligning more closely with nature's sacred rhythms.
This card reading supports you to Align with Wisdom, receive guidance as you grow into your next chapter, and discover new ways to bring Integrity (the mandala theme for May) into your life. Come back to this reading whenever you’re feeling stuck, seeking clarity, or ready to Align with Wisdom--within, in nature, and with the Universe.
How will you emerge, blossom, and reconnect to what matters to you this month? How will you harness the vibrant energy of the season and move forward with clarity?
Before I drew the cards, I asked:
What do we/you/I need to know about Aligning with Wisdom in May?
The first card, the Focus Card, anchors and grounds us this month.
GOOD FORTUNE
This mandala is from a photograph of Centaurea cyanus (symbolizes hope) and poppy (symbolizes resilience) and is associated with the solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye and crown chakras.
It reminds you that success is on the way. You have done good work and the Universe is rewarding you. The seeds you planted or will plant are bringing well-being in all areas of your life.
Be patient and allow new ways for achieving your goals to emerge. It's safe to ask for support.
Affirmation:
I feel optimistic about fulfilling my vision and living my purpose. The Universe is blessing me with good fortune at the right time and in the perfect way.
The 2nd card supports the Focus Card.
What do we need to know that supports us to Align with Wisdom?
ATTRACTION:
This mandala from a photograph of pink species rose (symbolizes gratitude) is associated with the root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, and crown chakras.
At the heart of all inspiration and growth is love.
This mandala reminds us that tenderness and love are always available. The love, compassion, and self-acceptance you give yourself attract love (in all its forms) to you. This is the time to notice opportunities for new connections or for deepening current connections.
We are connected to heart energy when we release old, toxic relationships, thoughts, and beliefs that no longer serve our most expansive self. We are worthy of attracting love.
Affirmation:
I deeply and completely love and accept myself. I attract love in wonderful and unexpected ways.
The 3rd card supports our next steps.
What will help us Align with Wisdom throughout May and beyond?
SPIRITUAL GROWTH:
This mandala is from a photograph of Himalayan blue poppy (symbolizes spirituality) and is associated with the root, sacral, solar plexus, throat, third eye, and crown chakras.
It reminds us this is a wonderful time! You are in tune with your soul's purpose, you live your life with integrity, and you trust yourself and the universe.
You are moving forward in the right direction on your path and are expressing expansive energy.
Affirmation:
My mind and heart are open to Truth. I trust that my inner guidance shows me the way.
The beginning of May invites you to enjoy playful exploration of new ideas with a spirit of curiosity and wonder. Let yourself experiment without pressure or expectations. Through this gentle exploration, you'll naturally discover which possibilities truly light you up and deserve your precious energy.
Take time to immerse yourself in spring's sensual delights - the scent of blooming flowers, the warmth of sunshine on your skin, the vibrant colors painting the landscape. This deep connection to life's pleasures enhances your own creative power.
This is the perfect time to plant the seeds of your intentions. Like a mindful gardener selecting seeds with care, take time to connect with what you truly want to grow in your life over the next weeks and months. What dreams and visions are ready to be nurtured into reality?
I invite you to open yourself to the energies of abundance, growth, love, creativity, and authentic expression.
Wishing you moments of self-care--to reset and realign, and moments of creativity that move you forward with clarity as you allow yourself to dream and co-create!
Blessings of good fortune, love, and growth!
