Time For Some Alone-Time

Four Of Air – Angel Tarot

Welcome to the Card of the Week for Monday the 15th of July 2024 through which the unicorns step forward from the Angel Tarot by Radleigh Valentine. They are here to remind us that our mind and intellect is a large part of us that we often take for granted – ignoring that it needs rest too. To rest the mind, we need to accept that it is time for some alone-time.

This card came forth in response to my mental state at present where I am feeling very emotionally overwhelmed with life in general at present, and I have no doubt that many others may well be feeling the same. But, in spite of the mental toll that life is taking on us all, it is time for relaxation and rejuvenation of the mind. Sure, we may sleep physically, but the mind seldom stops as it is constantly processing information – especially as we dream.

Traditionally, such a card is the Four of Swords where a knight is lying down on a slab in a state of rest with a sword laid down beside him and three swords in stained-glass windows above him. This shows that he has taken time for him and put his responsibilities aside for a while.

In this instance of the Four of Air, the Unicorn at rest is being watched over by two others indicating a state of readiness though rest is being achieved. The other two unicorns have taken on the responsibilities of the one resting to ensure they are ready to resume their duties at a later point in time.

While we cannot permanently shelve our responsibilities, we can certainly put them aside for a time to allow us to rest and recuperate. Be this a vacation or a weekend away, it is essential to take some alone-time to process life as it is at the moment and in the future. Alone-time is also great for meditating on and making decisions that are essential for your day-to-day life that you cannot always make given the turbulence of life.

To sum this up, it is time for some alone-time to relax and rejuvenate while bringing the mind back to a state of clarity so that concise decisions may be made. Despite how overwhelming life can get, you can do what you need to do for you. So, put aside what you can for now and allow yourself to take some time for you and notice how much better you feel.
