Welcome to the Daily Cast

The daily cast is a three coin cast. Every day (well, almost every day) I randomly pick one oracle coin from the pouch. Than I take the two structural coins (Axis Mundi, the green one and the Sirius coin, the red one) and cast the coins. My interpretation of the result is presented here. 

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1543: Don't Wait For Others

Something needs to be done and we don't want to wait around for somebody to help us. And we don't need to: today's cast assures us that we've got the skills and we've got the insight to do this! So no need to wait around for friends, family or co-workers to lend a hand, we might as well just go ahead and get it done.

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1542: Enjoy the Simple Things

We need the Sun to warm us and make our crops grow. Which hemisphere we live in doesn't matter: either the Sun is returning to our lives at the start of our summer or the Sun is greeting us briefly in a season of coldness, either way we welcome it's life-giving warmth. So let us use today to celebrate the simple pleasures in life; the sun on our face, the song of a bird, a glass of clean water. Don't over-complicate life, just try to enjoy it today!

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1541: Let's Do It!

Oh how we would like to start anew, to begin a new project or to change jobs, to move house or to go on a long trip. But something is holding us back. We might feel obligated to persevere out of loyalty or we might fear to choose uncertainty over the relative stability we enjoy now. Let us look into ourselves to find what it is that prevent us from altering the status quo. Maybe we can change that so we can choose to renew what we really want to be different. Let's do it!

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1540: Community Efforts

Today is about community. Whatever challenges we face or whatever job we need to get done, today is a good day to involve our neighbors, our friends or our family. We might need their help, or they might need ours. Many hands make for light work and by striking a healthy balance between our own needs as an individual and the needs of the collective we are a part of, life becomes easier for everybody. So let's enjoy our social circles today and be an active part of them.

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1539: Leave Me Be

Sometimes we just crave some solitude. We need to time to be on our own and to get on with things without having to explain ourselves all the time. So let's tell our friends to just let us be for today, no drama, no worries, just some 'me-time'. We'll be social again some other time!

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1538: Free Up Your Mind

The Crystal Skull is warning us today not to get stuck in antiquated ideas. Just because an idea is old doesn't mean it is right! So let us do some soul-searching here; are we holding on to convictions that have outlived their usefulness? Do we allow principles from the past to stand in the way of our future? Time to unstuck ourselves and free up our mental capacities to embrace new and useful ideas!

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1537: Magic Is All Around You

The world is a wonderful place, full of possibilities. All its opportunities are limited only by the limits of our imagination. The fairy is here to encourage us to open our eyes and our hearts to new ideas.  We owe it to the inquisitive nature of our spirit to let it roam free from time to time. That we may become filled with wonder and awe, and that we will forever see magic in our world.

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1536: Be Uniquely Yourself

Nobody is exactly like me, and nobody is exactly like you. Let that sink in; you are absolutely unique, even if you belong to a set of 'identical twins', than still you're not really identical. If we are not sure what our unique talents are, today is a good day to think about that. What is it that makes us uniquely us?  We don't have to develop a trait or a skill to be unique; it is already manifested, we only need to find it and learn how to treasure it.

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1535: Healing Takes Time

The Cave coin is about taking time for ourselves and about healing ourselves through resting and introspection. With the opponent on the table however, it seems that we are not paying enough attention to this part of life. We need to slow down a bit a make sure that we take enough time to rest. Let's cast our alarm-clock aside and take the time we need to heal.

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1534: Knowledge is our Friend

Sometimes we really need more information about an issue before we can even think about solving it. So let's not get pressured into making half-cooked decisions. Whatever the issue is, it can wait until we know enough of the matter to take steps towards the solution. Knowledge is our friend today, let gathering it be our pleasure!

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1533: Crowded Mind

The Sun coin in the Raven Coins Oracle can represent thought processes and intellectual enlightenment in the right constellation of coins. But just like too much sun might dry out the earth and leave her parched and barren, there can be too much activity in the intellectual realm as well; 'overthinking it' is a well known expression to illustrate how the very process of thinking can be taken to such an extend that the process loses its value and prevents us from taking action. Our natural instinct is to think more when we can not solve a problem. Let's try to think less for a change. Let us give our brain and our overstimulated mind a rest before we start pondering our challenges again. And in the meantime we can actually do something about them.

Raven Coins Daily Cast - 1532: Quiet Times

It's the weekend, for most people the best part of the week. We are enjoying some rest, a little time off of the hustle and bustle of daily life. Let's not cram our weekend with activities and obligations; we could do with a pause. On a deeper level this cast invites us to look at our lives: Are we living it the way we want to? Maybe it is to busy, to chaotic to thrive. The cave invites us to retreat in order to re-energize. Let us find some quiet time and contemplate our life.
