Tarot Court Cards And The People In Your Life
A psychic might use the Tarot as a tool to ‘fine tune’ into the direction of the energies she sees around you and your question. The court cards in Tarot typically represent the people and personality energies in your reading.
The querent may for example ask the psychic about a certain love interest, or a situation at work. The way I read is that I tune into the question and see a certain person, or people, but then I may also do a Tarot spread to gain more details about them.
If many of the cards in the reading are court cards, it generally means that your question is much more complicated by the energies and presence of other people. For example, if you are interested in a certain new man, I would tune into the guy clairvoyantly and maybe see a man who is very interested in you. This may seem like great news on the surface, but sensing other energies, I might then lay out a love Tarot spread… and lo and behold, there might be two Queens, a Knight, and several Pages influencing the situation!
Easy Ways To Master The Art Of Meditation
Meditation is recommended for everyone. Not only does it offer incredible benefits for clarity of mind and overall well-being, it’s also a powerful spiritual tool to help us navigate our lives. But, getting started with a meditation practice can be hard!
I often hear people say they can’t meditate, or they tried meditating, but they became too distracted. “I can’t seem to clear my mind,” they might say. Many beginners struggle with this idea that in order to ‘properly’ meditate, one must sit motionless, eyes closed, and clear your mind of all thoughts. Failure to do so means that you have ‘failed’ to meditate.
The truth is, meditation is called a practice, because it really does take practice. Actually clearing your mind is not an easy task. I suggest people begin a meditation routine in one of two ways: guided meditation, or nature meditation.
Measuring The Moment
To be present within the moment is not observable – it is an experience. This has to be done by action. I have had to consciously practice this due to the intensity of my work, which requires me to be entirely mindful. I have to always work on grounding, and direct action.
If you have to work with the intellect a lot, you also have to do something that is physically stimulating, or that requires at least some motion as often as possible. All the senses can been heightened, yet without any type of motion knowledge is not useful. This is what I believe causes lack of motivation and a sense of disaffection.
This being said, many of us are always working on something, perhaps always in motion from, or towards something. But would mindfulness be something one could act on? I would have to say it is vital to do so.
I love every breath of the wind, every whorl in its wake. Within the stillness of its vacuum, there within, there is my motion. And within the step of one’s foot, there beneath my physical frame, there lies the earth… sighing beneath me, ready to crumble as I test its simplest structure. And as I go up into my journey’s sanctum… there upon the skies… there are always the myriad of birds. There I can see the sum of my knowledge. Continue reading
The Egyptian Goddess Hathor
Hathor is an ancient Egyptian goddess representing healing, love, joy, and motherhood. She was known as the Mother of Mothers and the Celestial Nurse who presided over women, fertility, children, and childbirth.
However, Hathor is also associated with the dead, as we see in the tomb paintings where she was depicted as the Mistress of Heaven, welcoming the dead into the next life. Hathor’s connection to helping bring souls into the world through childbirth, and helping souls cross over to the land of Spirit, makes her a goddess who bridges together life, death, and Spirit, and her connection to the Great Mystery.
Hathor’s name translates to ‘House of Horus.’ Horus, is the son of the Egyptian Goddess Isis, also known by her Roman name, Auset or Iset, who is recognized for her psychic knowing, and her connection to the celestial skies and prophesy.
There is an Egyptian tale where seven Hathors are disguised as seven young women linked with fortune-telling and the Land of the Dead. They may have been associated with the Pleiades in later times. Hathor herself was known as Lady of Stars, in connection with the star, Sirius. Continue reading
A Symbol To Know The Unknowable
This morning, I ran into one of my friends in our little Spanish town, and we decided to grab a coffee and catch up. I was delighted at how she took an interest in my Om/Aum pendant. She commented on how I seemed to treat my pendant as something rather sacred, and with respect – an interesting observation! She loved the flow of the shapes, and asked if the pendant had any specific meaning.
I had to remove the pendant and study it closely to try and remember what I was taught years ago, in order to give her a brief description to the best of my ability. One by one I tried to connect with each swirl in the design and was surprised that I had remembered quite a lot of what my mentor had taught me. It was a long time ago, when we used the Om/Aum chant in our meditation sessions.
With my pendant on the table I began to explain the meaning of the dot at the top of the symbol, and recalled that this related to the silence after chanting Om/Aum. It represents the Enlightened Self, and is known as the transcendental state of Turiya. Continue reading
