Intention is everything. The reasons behind our choices shape the outcome more than we realize. This morning, I pulled the "Temptation" card from The Good Tarot deck—a powerful reminder of how easily overindulgence and excess can pull us off course. When our actions stem from a place of lack, from trying to fill a void or soothe an unmet need, even the most healthy things can become toxic. The desire to escape discomfort or mask emptiness can lead us down a path that ultimately harms more than it helps.
But when our choices are grounded in love, in joy, and in genuine pleasure, the same actions can become life-affirming. The energy behind the act matters. Indulgence that comes from wholeness is very different from indulgence that tries to repair a wound. So the next time you're standing at a crossroads, ask yourself not just what you're choosing, but why. The intention beneath the action is what determines whether it becomes healing or harmful. Choose accordingly.
