🌿 A Day in the Life of The Stone Burdened

Stone Burdened Oracle Card

I wake each morning with heaviness in my chest, as if I carry more than just my own body. My steps are slow—not because I walk with presence, but because invisible weight drags me down. I feel the echoes of struggles that are not mine, ancestral wounds passed through bone and blood.

Throughout the day, I try to move forward, but each choice feels like lifting stone upon stone. My mind says I should be free, but my body remembers burdens unhealed. Sometimes I hoard responsibilities, grudges, or fears that calcify into heaviness. Other times I carry family pain, unspoken shame, or cycles that weigh me down without my consent.

People may not see the weight, but I feel it. Even in laughter, I sense the heaviness pressing on my shoulders. When night comes, I fall into restless sleep, my dreams filled with rocks and rubble. I long to lay these stones at Earth’s feet, but part of me fears: who will I be without the burden?
