By Michael A. Singer, author of Living Untethered, The Untethered Soul, The Untethered Soul Guided Journal, The Untethered Soul Card Deck, and The Living Untethered Card Deck.
At any moment, you can stop struggling and start experiencing your highest potential. These cards are based on my book Living Untethered. Each one invites you to live your daily life with wisdom, serenity, and the purpose of liberation.
By revealing the workings of your heart and mind, and the effect of blockages on your energy flow, these selected teachings lead to a life of daily awakening. Their powerful messages support your return to the present moment, where infinite potential for insight and wonder awaits. As a daily practice, meditate before pulling a card every morning and evening. Or spontaneously close your eyes and reach for one. Your inner states can keep getting higher as you keep letting go, which can change the world. Just keep practicing.
Conscious Awareness
“Who am I?” is the quintessential question. You can’t free yourself until you understand who it is that’s bound. Likewise, you can’t understand acceptance until you understand who is resisting.
The Outside World
The universe is a phenomenal system of cause and effect. What was, causes what is; what is, causes what will be. Every single thing is the result of every single thing that ever happened throughout time and space. You’re not the doer; you are the experiencer of reality.
The Mind
Nothing is actually personal. But you have chosen to fill the sanctity of your mind with frozen images from your past. These impressions will stay in your mind and will pull your consciousness toward them. That is the power of the personal mind.
Thoughts and Dreams
When you block a mental or emotional pattern, that pattern will not sit quietly inside of you. Anything that ever got stored inside your mind, because you resisted or clung to it, is trying to release.
The Heart
What the mind says when the heart is closed is not you. It’s just the mind expressing the state of the closed heart. You are the one who notices.
The Human Predicament and Beyond
Little by little, as you accept that emotions are a reality of life, they will come and go if you let them. This is spiritual evolution. Just as our bodies have evolved through eons of challenging outer experiences, so our souls evolve through the fires of inner experiences.
