35 Quotes On Boundaries

#1

“To me, self-care does not mean going to the spa. It’s learning to say no. It’s knowing yourself so you can make choices that are an expression of you.” ~ Tracee Ellis Ross

#2

“The hardest part about setting boundaries with people, no matter who they are, is not feeling confident in our authority to do so. As long as you realize that setting boundaries is necessary for healthy relationships, you will feel better defining and keeping them.” ~ Tamera Mowry-Housley

#3

“Givers need to set limits because takers rarely do.” ~ Rachel Wolchin

#4

“Poor boundaries model a narcissistic and codependent dynamic. They can be toxic – lead to power struggles and manipulation. They can also lead to cognitive distortions. For example, people-pleasers tend to feel objectified by others and commanding personalities are often resentful that they “have” to hold all the responsibility. It is often the case that the intentions are good but the boundaries are poor. Obligation, expectation, demands, guilt, fear are all on the list when explaining how the “wrong” thing is done for the “right” reasons.” ~ Ishtar Gonzalez

#5

“I swear to God, the second I learned how to say ‘no,’ I felt that was the best anti-aging I could do for myself.“ ~ Gabrielle Union

#6

“Setting boundaries is a way of caring for myself. It doesn’t make me mean, selfish, or uncaring (just) because I don’t do things your way. I care about me, too.” ~ Christine Morgan

#7

“I encourage people to remember that “No” is a complete sentence.” ~ Gavin de Becker

#8

”Healthy boundaries are not walls. They are gates and fences that allow you to enjoy the beauty of your own garden.” ~ Lydia Hall

#9

“Families living in dysfunction seldom have healthy boundaries. Dysfunctional families have trouble knowing where they stop and others begin.” ~ David W. Earle

#10

“Being able to say “No” is a necessary ingredient in a healthy lifestyle.” ~ David W. Earle

#11

“Compassionate people ask for what they need. They say no when they need to, and when they say yes, they mean it. They’re compassionate because their boundaries keep them out of resentment.” ~ Bren Brown

#12

“No” is a complete sentence.” ~ Anne Lamott

#13

“Boundaries can be a measure of a person’s self-worth and they can also be an empowering means to rectify any self-deprecation. They assist us in showing up in the world with overflow rather than from exhaustion. They are the tools with which we practice assertiveness, self-acceptance, and, most of all, increased trust.” ~ Ishtar Gonzalez

#14

“People who violate your boundaries are thieves. They steal time that doesn’t belong to them.” ~ Elizabeth Grace Saunders

Quotes On Boundaries

#15

“Close some doors. Not because of pride, incapacity, or arrogance, but simply because they no longer lead somewhere.” ~ Paulo Coelho

#16

“Boundaries are a crucial starting point. They do not beget separation as one may assume; instead, they invite unconditional self-love which ultimately can translate into authentic intimacy as we learn to be accountable for ourselves.” ~ Ishtar Gonzalez

#17

“The first thing you need to learn is that the person who is angry at you for setting boundaries is the one with the problem” ~ Drs. Cloud and Townsend

#18

“Honoring your own boundaries is the clearest message to others to honor them, too.” ~ Gina Greenlee

#19

“Personal boundaries are an essential part of creating and upholding a healthy self-image. When a person has strong personal boundaries, it communicates to the world that they exude healthy self-respect and self-worth. Hence, creating boundaries makes us feel good about ourselves and preserves our personal integrity.” ~ Mateo Sol

#20

“Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves even when we risk disappointing others.” ~ Bren Brown

#21

“Boundaries are the lines we draw that mark off our autonomy and that of other people, that protect our privacy and that of others. Boundaries allow for intimate connection without dissolving or losing one’s sense of self.” ~ Amy Bloom

#22

”Liberation from taking on external expectations and finding balance with the heart’s desire are the gateway to healthy boundaries which lead to conscious relating.” ~ Ishtar Gonzalez

#23

“Your personal boundaries protect the inner core of your identity and your right to choices.” ~ Gerard Manley Hopkins

#24

“Boundaries: The key to confidence, calm and self-control.” ~ Rokelle Lerner

#25

“Boundaries help us take care of ourselves by giving us permission to say NO to things, to not take everything on. Boundaries draw a clear line around what is ok for us and what is not. While some behaviours clearly cross the line for almost anyone, we all have different comfort levels when it comes to everything from intimacy and privacy to lateness. When someone behaves in a way that doesn’t feel ok to us – that crosses our line, we need to take care of ourselves by letting them know and making that line much clearer.” ~ Ida Soghomonian

#26

“Boundaries are lines that define your self-respect and self-esteem.” ~ David Roppo

#27

“You have to be able to set boundaries, otherwise the rest of the world is telling you who you are and what you should be doing. You can still be a nice person and set boundaries.” ~ Oprah Winfrey

#28

“It is necessary, and even vital, to set standards for your life and the people you allow in it.” ~ Mandy Hale

#29

“Healthy boundaries assist us in remaining true to our intuition and help us define who we truly are and not who we think we should be. Boundaries are the ones that remove the emphasis from what we can expect from others because we are clear in what we can expect from ourselves.” ~ Ishtar Gonzalez

#30

“Boundaries protect the things that are of value to you. They keep you in alignment with what you have decided you want in life. That means the key to good boundaries is knowing what you want.” ~ Adelyn Birch

#31

“Personal boundaries are the mental, emotional, and physical walls we create to protect ourselves from being used, manipulated, or violated by others. These limits help us to clearly distinguish who we are and what we need, from other people and their needs. Creating and maintaining personal boundaries is a key way to cultivate physical, emotional, and psychological well-being.” ~ Mateo Sol

#32

“Boundaries are a part of self-care. They are healthy, normal, and necessary.” ~ Doreen Virtue

#33

“Healthy boundaries are necessary components for self-care. Without boundaries, we feel depleted, taken advantage of, taken for granted, or intruded upon. Whether it’s in work or in our personal relationships, poor boundaries may lead to resentment, hurt, anger, and burnout.” ~ Ida Soghomonian

#34

“You teach people how to treat you by what you allow, what you stop, and what you reinforce.” ~ Tony Gaskins

#35

“Setting boundaries isn’t always comfortable and people may push back if you say NO to some things or try communicating your needs more clearly. People may try to test your limits, to see how serious you are about drawing the line. Or they may be used to you responding in a certain way (agreeing to take on everything), and they may push back when you try to make some changes. That doesn’t mean that you’re doing something wrong. It may just mean that you need to be clear and consistent until people adjust to the new way of interacting.” ~ Ida Soghomonian

— Barbara Ward

― Israel Morrow

Forward Walking choices are rewarded with consequences that light the way to peace, happiness, joy, comfort, knowledge, and wisdom. Backward Walking choices bring to the Two-Legged beings consequences of misery despair, and darkness.”
― Anasazi Foundation

#9

― Ahmed Salah Al-Mahdi

#10

“Those of us who consider ourselves to be somehow involved in the birthing of a new age should discover Gaia as well.

Rabbits, gophers, moles, prairie dogs, wolves, and bears in hibernation all remember and recreate their rootedness in Mother Earth.”
― Elizabeth Eiler

#19

“No man is as wise as Mother Earth. She has witnessed every human day, every human struggle, every human pain, and every human joy. For maladies of both body and spirit, the wise ones of old pointed man to the hills. For man too is of the dust and Mother Earth stands ready to nurture and heal her children.”
― Anasazi Foundation

― Peace Gypsy

#21

“In the Gaia theory air, water, and soil are major components of one central organism, planet Earth. What we typically think of as life – the plants and animals that inhabit the earth – has evolved merely to regulate the chemistry of the biosphere. Humans are insignificant participants, far less important to the life cycle than termites. Even the imbalance that we have created by adding massive quantities of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere may be brought back to acceptable levels by other organisms functioning in their capacity to correct excesses.”
– David Easton

#22

“Earth survived then; it will survive again.
The real question is “will we”?”
― Dr. Darius Singh

― Anasazi Foundation

― Dr. Darius Singh

#27

“Time spent among trees is never time wasted.”
— Anonymous

Quotes About Tarot: 22 Deep Sayings on the Mystical Purpose of Tarot Cards

Published

April 8, 2022

SOLANCHA STAFF

While Tarot cards are usually associated with being able to tell the future, they actually can be used as a tool for understanding the Universal Laws and as a guide to your self-transformation. If you are one of those who know that Tarot cards contain much deeper meaning than just fortune-telling, then this article is for you. Here, we have collected 22 quotes about the Tarot that will inspire you to look into your Tarot deck deeper.

22 Quotes About Tarot

#1

“Remember that the Tarot is a great and sacred arcanum – its abuse is an obscenity in the inner and a folly in the outer. It is intended for quite other purposes than to determine when the tall dark man will meet the fair rich widow.” ~ Jack Parsons

#2

“An imprisoned person with no other book than the Tarot, if he knew how to use it, could in a few years acquire universal knowledge, and would be able to speak on all subjects with unequalled learning and inexhaustible eloquence.” ~ Eliphas Levi

#3

“The Angel Metatron, or Enoch, delivered the Tarot in which the entirety of divine wisdom is enclosed. The Tarot remains written in stone. He also left us the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. This great master lives in the superior worlds in the world of Atziluth, which is a world of indescribable happiness. According to the Kabbalah, this world is the region of Kether, a very high Sephirah. All Kabbalists base themselves on the Tarot, and it is necessary for them to comprehend the Tarot and study it deeply.” ~ Samael Aun Weor

#4

“The Tarot cards must be considered (1) as separate and complete hieroglyphs, each representing a distinct principle, law, power, or element in Nature; (2) in relation to each other as the effect of one agent operating upon another; and (3) as vowels and consonants of a philosophic alphabet. The laws governing all phenomena are represented by the symbols upon the Tarot cards, whose numerical values are equal to the numerical equivalents of the phenomena. As every structure consists of certain elemental parts, so the Tarot cards represent the components of the structure of philosophy. Irrespective of the science or philosophy with which the student is working, the Tarot cards can be identified with the essential constituents of his subject, each card thus being related to a specific part according to mathematical and philosophical laws.” ~ Manly P. Hall

#5

“We hold a universe in our hands when we pick up a deck of tarot cards.” ~ Lon Milo DuQuette

#6

“Once upon a time, tarot reading was about discovering what your future held. These days tarot helps you craft exactly the future you desire.” ~ Sasha Graham

#7

“Some people believe tarot cards are a form of black magic or senseless new age mysticism but for me, they are a practical way of talking directly to the universe.” ~ Toyah Willcox

#8

“To make the Tarot speak is our objective, but the arcana only speak to those who have learned to understand them.” ~ Oswald Wirth

#9

“The Tarot embodies symbolical presentations of universal ideas, behind which lie all the implicits of the human mind, and it is in this sense that they contain secret doctrine, which is the realization by the few of truths embedded in the consciousness of all.” ~ A.E. Waite

#10

“The true Tarot is symbolism; it speaks no other language and offers no other signs.” ~ A. E. Waite

#11

“In the Tarot deck, the Fool is depicted as a young man about to step off a cliff into empty air. Most people assume that the Fool will fall. But we don’t see it happen, and a Fool doesn’t know that he’s subject to the laws of gravity. Against all odds, he just might float.” ~ Richard Kadrey

#12

“You are the Secret. Let Tarot explore you.” ~ Shweta Tarot

#13

“Fear is dangerous, not the tarot. The tarot represents the spectrum of the human condition, the good, the evil, the light, and the dark. Do not fear the darker aspects of the human condition. Understand them. The tarot is a storybook about life, about the greatness of human accomplishment, and also the ugliness we are each capable of.” ~ Benebell Wen

#14

“If you want to understand your emotions, the rationale behind your words so that you can treat the source of your struggles; Tarot is the solution.” ~ Anujj Elviis

#15

“Tarot Cards are your guidance cards.” ~ Nikita Dudani

#16

“The tarot is a perfect representation of the Tree of Life. The ace of each suit represents the top sephira and the two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten of each suit represents its respective sephira on the Tree.” ~ Lon Milo DuQuette

#17

“Tarot helps us look within ourselves to understand our emotions, the reasoning behind our words and conduct, and the source of our conflicts.” ~ Benebell Wen

#18

“The Tree of Life – this figure must be studied very carefully, for it is the basis of the whole system on which the Tarot is based. It is quite impossible to give a complete explanation of this figure, because (for one thing) it is quite universal. Therefore it cannot mean the same to any one person as to any other.” ~ Lon Milo DuQuette

#19

“It is the province of the tarot reader to move backwards, forwards, even sideways in time.” ~ Sasha Graham

#20

“In every deck, the Fool is in a precarious position. Think of all of the idioms we have for taking chances. “Going out on a limb.” “Winging it.” “Break a leg.” “Going for broke.” These all sound really painful, but what they’re about is deciding that being still is not for you. When you see this in a reading, you’ll know it’s time to jump.” ~ Melissa Cynova

#21

“Tarot Reading is an art based on intuition, interpretation, and perception.” ~ Nikita Dudani

#22

“Tarot is storytelling. It’s what we do when we read the cards. Telling stories imbues us with supernatural power – the power to change our story.” ~ Sasha Graham

They asked,

“How can you love so deeply?”

When we know that our heart is a magical kitchen, we are always generous and our love is completely unconditional.” ~ Miguel Angel Ruiz
