Justice and the Peace

Posted on by

Time for a tarot oracle card reading !
Fallen Angel deck by Nigel Suckling.
One card draw to determine energies.
Spirit card at the bottom of the deck.
Intent –  best direction on the path for the most benevolent outcome for all of us~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amon : Element, Air / Planet, Moon
Seek peace from a position of strength, Amon can see the path of the past and future which is helpful in making decisions.  Amon is a great warrior if need be, but also an excellent diplomat reconciling those at odds with each other.

Botis: Element, Earth / Planet, Mars

Short term pain leads to a lasting and just settlement.  Botis bears a sharp sword of justice, cutting through confusion to reveal the root causes of disputes.  He gives the courage to make difficult choices that bring pain in the short term, but reconciliation and peace in the end.

cave of winds

Posted on by

Hello, lovely people…
Today’s reading is from The Shaman’s Oracle by John Matthews and Wil Kinghan.
It is activated when you read it, with the intent of guidance on the path towards highest possible good of all.

Now a bit about this great deck…

The midworld, our reality, is represented by the palm of the hand.
 Five cards are drawn to represent the five caves (fingers of the hand) or gateways to the spirit realm.
 These cards are based on the symbolic language of petroglyphs and the shamans vision quest.

I will give you the meaning of the caves (position of cards), and leave the meanings printed on the cards, and the petroglyphs to speak for themselves.
Note: most of the cards I pulled are energetic, expressive dancers- symbolic of the energies world-wide
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dancers = energy and expression, dancing to express emotions and raise the self to a more spiritual level

Ancestor = holders of primal wisdom, the whole tribe, Earthkinds source of wisdom through the ages (this includes animals and Gaia)

Shaman = messengers of becoming, the walkers between worlds

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cave of Ice/Spirits : manifestation, blessings, purification, forces that will not be stopped.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cave of Winds/ Shamans : Beginnings, the place of unrealized possibilities, transcendence

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 Cave of Hearthfires/Dancers : Home, protection, magic and gifts of spirits, transformation, power and it’s dangers, the present.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~|
Cave of Rivers/Hunters : Emotion, boundaries, time passing, shifts of emphasis.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 Cave of Earth/ Ancestors : Entrance to the otherworld, trial & challenge, initiation, power that can manifest in the seekers world.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Message from spirit (card at the bottom of deck)

Strength squared

Posted on by

Hello lovely people !
This tarot card reading is from the Soulcards deck by Deborah Koff-Chapin.
Another sign, as I post this I see not only is today an 8, but this post is numbered 2222, (8) which is strength and regeneration.
Blessings to all ~ find your brace points in love.

My question was loosely based on the principle of micro/macro energies for us and our world during these times of Uranus square Pluto.  This reading will reveal what is UP with our lives, and the lives of all of us collectively.
I placed them in a group of 3, the last card being the message from spirit at the bottom of the deck.   My other parameters being the most benevolent outcome for all my readers whenever they stop by to read it.
I love these cards because they are subjective, what YOU see springs out of your personal experience.  Enjoy~

On a personal note, I am on vacation so if posts slow up for a week or so, do not be alarmed, I am working, but on other things.

be at ease

I pulled these cards for my readers, with the intention that the reading will deliver guidance on the path towards the most benevolent outcome for all.  This reading is activated when you read this post.

I call this layout Foundation of Strength , the bottom two cards are the foundation; the resulting strength is indicated in the single card above.

 IX- Aloneness
befriend your quiet stillness, listen to what your heart whispers teach you, unfold the divine wisdom within, fully embrace your aloneness…
‘ Be a light unto yourself ‘ – Buddha 

< Slowing Down
let go of attachments and illusions, be free of expectations, find joy and beauty in each moment, each breath of life.  The essence is at ease.

XXI – Completion
insightful third eye understands the whole : self, life, cosmos, endings and beginnings present in each moment

namaste ~

Check, please

Cardinal Cross time again and how about a reality check.  I need one, it’s been a busy day and more yet to come.  For those of you not familiar with astrology, look for the big red square (each point is in a Cardinal sign) with an ‘X’ in the center.  The ‘X’ lines are oppositions, the shorter red lines are squares.  Squares are inner conflicts, oppositions something someone else does.
Uranus in Aries opposite Saturn in Libra is like trying to hold on to a bucking relationship bronco between self/others.  Mars in Cancer opposite Pluto in Capricorn is walking the tightrope between changing career and herding the family home.


~~~~~~~

Good news (in blue) is there is also a mystic rectangle, which is two trines (easy energies) and two sextiles ( two opportunities) and a grand trine (big blue triangle) and a kite with two more sextiles.  So there is a lot of good energy bopping around too…!
The opposition in the kite is pointing to Mars and Pluto.  That’s action, desires and where we put our energy (Mars) opposite the big transformer, Pluto.  Feels kinda like a big soul shakedown party.  The whole planet, our country and each and every one of us are going through some rapid changes.

So I made a tarot spread so I could have some more info on the energies.
I did this spread using:
the left card as ASC /top as MC/ right as DC/ bottom as IC/ middle card as The Hub.
The card on the bottom right is the bottom of the deck or the ‘message from spirit’ as Donni calls it.

~~~~~~~~~~
ASC= Koala, upright~~~Live in a place of gratitude and generosity, you may have your secrets as long a you have respect for and do no harm to others.

MC=Waratah, upright~~It is only by the dark night of the soul and grief through loss that we may fully understand the unbridled joy of love and happiness.  Being alive is to accept them both.

DC=Southern Cross, upright~~This is a testing period, a period of changes and endings.  What is needed is courage and fortitude – be mentally and physically strong, keep to your discipline and beliefs.  Do not lose hope, for the beautiful new world to come will far exceed your expectations and imaginings.

IC=Willy Wagtail, upright~~This is the time to communicate your spiritual and emotional truth – openly and honestly.  Face changes and the ending of the old by turning your face to the new.  Find your inner strength to deal with difficulties, and seek the friendship of others when you need it.

Hub (Earth)= Black Swan, reversed~~Turn your sight within to find what is holding you back from your highest good.  Adjust your attitude/altitude to find the opportunities present in your situation.

Spirit=Opal, reversed~~This is a very spiritual card that indicates a time of shedding past habits and negativity.   Find the rainbow of energies available within (chakras) to see the value of your presence in the world and the gifts you have to offer with newfound clarity.

All the best~

With the coming of the new moon in generous Leo, I have a gift for you…a free tarot reading !

Activated for my readers at whatever time you choose to read it.  Its purpose being to align us all with the highest good energies for all earthkind~ I was asking for directions; the best path to take for the future good of all, as seen through the lens of astrological energies.

Cardinal= activity, where the action is, self-starters & go-getters
Fixed= stable, building from ideas of cardinals, desires and emotions
Mutable= adaptable, changing, people people, the glue between the two

Cardinal————Fixed———–Mutable

(teacher card/bottom of things)

2 of pentacles (earth, material) in the cardinal position represents the active form of choosing what we value, the act of choosing goals

6 of cups (water, emotions) in the fixed position represents building solid foundations; good relationships with self and others through generosity and kindness

Ace of swords (air, communication) in the mutable position represents logic, and successfully adapting between material and emotional needs

Hangman as teacher card represents the need to see issues from another perspective, slow down and take stock of what you have, need or want.  He can also represent sacrifice for the higher good.

(Hangman is the card of Anglo-Saxon god, Woden / Odin who hung from the world tree, Yggdrasil, for nine days to gain insight which resulted in the Runic alphabet.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What the entire spread vibes to me is the shedding of goals that do not suit the present situation.  If it’s not working for you, change goals.
The numerology of this spread is a total of 3= creation + growth.
All the best~

Foundation of Strength

Posted on by

I’ve been outside mowing, planting and digging in the dirt.  Getting my Toro moon on – good for the soul !

Tonight’s post is actually a card reading for you!
A tarot reading for everyone who will read this post, activated – when they read it.  With the intent that it will result in the highest good of all who choose to read it.

Shall we begin..?
I am using the Robin Wood tarot, my personal fave; you may purchase it here:
http://www.robinwood.com/Catalog/Books/BookPages/RWTDeck.html

The two bottom cards are the ‘foundation’ -of the- ‘strength’ card at the top.  The card at the bottom of the pile (on the far left) is the ‘teacher card’ (what’s really going on, ‘the bottom of things’).

*Focus on the positive; for the only constant in the world is change; align energies to the highest good of all.*
Teacher card: Let go of that which binds or restricts; let go of doubts and fear of change.

This reading could also be summed up by the Mahatma Gandhi quote: Be the change you want to see in the world.

Have a great day all~ Cheers!
