Yoga Headache Context
Hi, you can tell that I made the most of my exercise yesterday because today I have a yoga headache, sore shoulders and a very low tolerance for stupidity and loud noises. Sometimes, if I haven’t been active in a while, I get a headache following exercise.
If I don’t catch the headache early enough, I’ve come to realise I shouldn’t consume headache tablets except in the beginning before it “sets in”. Consequently, my blog today is limited to the analysis, and even that’s probably going to be very light on when it comes to information.

The Cards - Yoga Headache Analysis
Carryover Cards
One card carried over from yesterday; Schizophrenia moved from Influence to Others’ Views.
Cross
Harmony in the Distant Past could represent the joy and peace I feel when I get a class that challenges me to improve. In the Recent Past is Participation and reflects me partaking in the Bonfire Yoga class.
The Goal when I attend the Bonfire Yoga class is Transformation; physical, mental and emotional. However, in the lead up to the moment on the yoga mat, I get inexplicably nervous.
The class designed to help me and work with me is perhaps intimidating because of my perception of the regular “perfect people” Maybe it’s just that it holds up a mirror to my desires for healthy living and constant exercise. Although, I can do without the yoga headache, or any type of headache, really.
Future Energy has Integration, suggesting I might find a way to make some of my aims a reality.
Base
When I go to a session, and I haven’t drunk enough water and begin to realise it, I feel like The Fool embarking romantically on the endeavour. Or I could think like The Fool for giving the class my all.
Others’ Views when I’m attempting to be diplomatic might see me as suffering from Schizophrenia, unable to decide what I want to do with my exercise regime.
Regardless, my Hopes & Fears are Aloneness. I fear that classic FOMO, wanting to be somewhere else, is loneliness, not Aloneness. On the other hand, I hope while practising, to be entirely in the now, comfortable and alone but not lonely.
Finally, Possibilities open up my frontiers in the Outcome position. In summary, there’s a bit of darkness hanging around with the Guilt card, but that’s external. On the whole, it’s looking good.
