Thank you so much for being a part of Our Daily Ritual!

Today, our theme was the fourth Pillar of Coherence, Philosophy which manifests as Values.

We pulled the King of Pentacles and The Hierophant, which reminded us of evaluating life’s order of operations. Philosophy, values, and other inventions of the human mind exist to serve us. If those structures are not longer productive, it is not just okay, but beneficial, to evolve or shed those paradigms. Philosophy is a pursuit, not a thing to be finished or a box to be checked.

Our mantra today is, “I craft my philosophy to serve my growth.”

If you want to implement this into your day, identify a belief that no longer serves you. If you don’t know where to begin, this reflective process can start from identifying a feeling that you want to process or get to the root of, and then explore the underlying beliefs that fuel those negative emotions.

Unfortunately I cannot find the exact moment of Alex O’Connor discussing the Sabbath passage I mentioned, but you can find his work, and a few other resources to explore this concept, below. Alex O’Connor:
