Your Card for today.  Meditate upon the meaning this card might have for you since it showed up at this exact moment. Not everyone saw this.  Not everyone attracted this message onto their monitor.  YOU DID. There are no mistakes.

MEANING:  The Fool is always an indicator of newness. This is generally considered a positive card, with the caveat that it’s important to take time to be sure that you are “looking where you’re going.”  This card indicates new beginnings that have deeper spiritual meaning – for example, starting a meditation practice or a relationship, as opposed to buying a new pair of shoes. The appearance of the fool can depict an important “fresh start.” Continue reading →

It becomes a different world here in the midnight hours.  I live in Paradise every day but at night is when the enchantment begins. Like right now. It’s a beautiful evening out there, a balmy 76, light breeze, moonrise not for another hour, then another hour+ to make it over the tree line. There’s night blooming jasmine in the air. The nightly parade of critters has begun. For me, this is the time to take a walkabout, then sit and soak up the night.  Each day as I bring work to a close, I review what needs to be done the next day.  Then I leave work at the office. When I ponder at night, it’s more about basking in appreciative thoughts of what magic the day has brought me, or seeing where I stand on any personal issues I may be working through. Most recently, I had 4 close to me pass in the last 3 months. I get waves of feeling grief and loss, all the while knowing there is no death.  Ongoing estate matters keep the topic fresh in my mind. One I lost in March was a friend of 54 years, and my sole confidante. I feel that loss acutely every day. At the same time, it is good to have no one to discuss things with.  It throws me back into myself and sends me pondering in the midnight hours.  In the quiet, in the night, thoughts become more clear. What seems tangled becomes smoothed free. That’s the magic of the nighttime.  It’s the perfect setting to step into the mystic and unravel truth from illusion.  Mysticism is defined as the pursuit of communion with the Source or God through experience, intuition and insight. It is for this reason I typically live a monastic life, as it is conducive to the cultivation of the mystical state of consciousness.  The session work I do with friends depends upon my state of consciousness.  It is for this reason I put my time in to become enchanted with nature, under the stars, listening to what the Universe has to tell me.  It’s where I get my continuing education to keep me qualified for my profession 🙂

My June 2013 horoscope by Barbara Lee reads:  Your relationship arena will be the focus for this month. Stranger things will happen especially when you find yourself falling in love at first sight with someone you have only just met. When endings seem to happen abruptly, know that they have been brewing for a long time and you just have to prepare for a new beginning.

His piece of the pie is bigger than mine – wah! The illusion of Competition. That’s been the topic this week during readings.  No wonder today’s Tarot Card of The Day was the 5 of Wands, about feeling competitive.  What experience has taught me is there is enough for everyone, and we each attract according to right of consciousness: our expectation and belief about how much of anything we think is available to us. And it’s all related, everything.  He advertises more? So what! No one can take anything from you for long. If you’re all caught up in the world of emotions, you’re operating on an astral level. The astral level is where a lot of illusion lies.  As we raise in consciousness, we rise above the astral level so that truths are less and less clouded by illusion.  As we meditate, we are no longer driven by our emotions, we can distance ourselves emotionally from the situation.  When we can view the situation objectively, we see there is never any competition.  What anyone else does doesn’t matter, unless you think it does.  Again, your expectation and belief governs what you attract.

MEANING: The reversed 5 of Wands can indicate open conflict and competition, usually in the work arena. Take one step at a time and think before you act or speak.  You have a real need to believe in and trust yourself now.  Trust your instincts. but be hesitant to escalate conflict or to take irrevocable steps. Don’t be hasty, no matter how angry you get in coming weeks. Continue reading →

MEANING:  Especially in reverse, The Moon indicates that things may seem somewhat confusing to you now and/or to those close to you. It’s important to “sit” with the uncertainty, don’t try to force things or people to do things before they are ready. You are definitely in a more “psychic and intuitive phase” than usual, so it will be important for you to trust your instincts and your impressions, even if you don’t know where they are coming from. However, when you draw the reversed Moon, the impressions you are getting may be less than clear and easily misinterpreted. Continue reading →

MEANING: The reversed 8 of Cups often means that you may be thinking about leaving a situation that seems as if it is no longer working. Receiving the card in reverse, however, points to a need to stop and think about it a bit longer. You may not have given the situation enough time yet. It’s important to keep reminding yourself that good times lie ahead for you. If your “gut” is telling you that you really need to get out of a relationship, job, or living arrangement, trust yourself..but think long and hard, first. Look before you leap and weigh all the pros and cons, if at all possible. Continue reading →

A friend wanted to do some real soul searching on her own and I sent her to this free site of mine Sisters Of The Circle, a free online inner retreat site. How can I best discover what I am here for and what work might be mine to do?  How do our lives  – yours and mine – twine together, how do we fit into each other’s purpose and mission, if we do? I’ve discovered a lot of tips and tricks along the way, many gleaned from insights received during my own personal spiritual development retreats.

I’m often asked to pray for friends and have a healing bench here where I do that daily.  It’s important to remember that modern medicine is amazing, especially in cancer treatment. Anything is possible. Miracle cures happen every day. Prayer works. The belief and expectation of everyone the patient knows can uplift them to a place of happiness and comfort. Holding thoughts or recalling them being well and active and laughing will go a long way in changing the current consciousness of those who think about their condition, for them and for others with it as well.  When the thoughtform changes, the situation changes. This is how we change a thoughtform. A few with focused intent in the direction of a positive outcome is more powerful than a million with scattered thoughts and no intention. We can each perform miracles as we uplift each other and remind ourselves who we really are and what is really possible.

MEANING: The 2 of Cups often refers to romantic partnership even when reversed, but that is not its only connotation. It can speak of balance, friendship, joy, and sharing.  In general the reversed 2 is a card that says that things are likely to be going well but getting real and some course correction may be in order before it’s too late. Be careful that you are not causing problems in other areas of life by over attention to your love life. Continue reading →
