Surrender

Channeled song: Surrender by Jhené Aiko & Dr. Chill and WTH by Jhené Aiko and Ab-Soul 

There is an art to surrendering. It’s understanding that you are not in control of nearly as much that you think you are. To be entirely truthful, the only things you are in control of are your own actions, reactions, and your body. Everything else is up to God or whatever you believe in.

To surrender is to trust the universe. To trust that everything happens for a reason. To just flow with life. There’s no need to force anything—whether it be a job, relationship, or anything else. It will come to you if it’s meant for you, and you have no control over when it will come. All you can do is get ready for it.

Advice

If you pulled this card in the advice position, then it’s time for you to surrender to the situation. Leave it up to God and just do what feels natural and effortless to you. If something is stressing you out too much, then step back from it. What’s meant for you will feel natural. “Let go or be dragged.” Close your eyes and take 10 deep belly breaths and envision whatever you want so badly floating away and drifting back to you.
