The Decks & Cards

Alrighty then here we go.
While in circle last night.......wait. I think it's a wine night. Yep, it is. I'll be right back.

Ahhh a lovely Cabernet Sauvignon (sip) just lovely. And I don't usually do reds in the summer, but I'm all out of whites. (ahem..now where was I? Oh yes..the cards)

The decks that were revealed to me to use were (and I was quite surprised that I was drawn to two decks)
1. The Celtic Oracle Cards and 2. Sacred Path Cards.

The Celtic Oracle were drawn first.  Here are the cards in their order that I pulled:
The Cauldron of the Dagda:
The meaning of the card pulled in a reading is this:
Listen to the message of your feelings, do not rationalize. You will not 'go without' or become impoverished.
(this hit home, because it is one of the main reasons I don't say "GET OUT" to my Dementor, I'm afraid of loosing everything, specifically my home.)

NEXT! (sipping wine)

The World Tree:The meaning of this card pulled in a reading is: A new influence will appear as matters of mind and communication are becoming important. A time of conscious has begun and you must try to get a clear overview of your life. Spiritual inspiration is on its way. Awareness will remove all doubt, fear and confusion.
 (I sure hope so! sipping wine)
Wow..as I sit here typing, I noticed it's getting darker in here, quickly, like the lights are browning down, but they aren't. Above me is a lamp, one of those lamps you see in libraries all the time with the green glass cover..you know a desk lamp. I look up and notice that green 'shade' started to lower itself and move over the bulb so that it covered my light. WOW..weird.

The Summer Queen:
The meaning pulled in a reading is: She indicates personal success, prosperity and well-being along with good luck.  Your plans are reaching fulfillment and your powers of self expression are at their strongest. They will lead to a rich harvest. Look for a mature women to play an important role in this.

Well (sips wine) I can see where this has meaning, especially in 'well-being'..with fruitful results. And sister let me tell you, I can use all the luck I can get! Wonder who the women is? 1 of 5 perhaps?

All in all I was surprised at the cards that were drawn (randomly I might add), they do show what I'm going through at this point. And that I have some good things coming, personal wise. I suppose it says too that the time I have chosen to 'get myself' back is a good one and I'll rise again shortly. (of course writing this all out here does help..sips wine)
Now, onto the Sacred Path Cards (given to me by 1 of the 5 I spoke of in an earlier post..THANK YOU!)

The Warbonnet: The Warbonnet tells you it's time to advance and not retreat backward or stay in the doldrums. I am now able to move on to lifes next mysteries. To take my medicine bundle and charge forward.

(alrighty then! I get this!)

West Shield: The West Shield cards asks you to look at your present goals and how they affect your future. Are the answers you are seeking in life from your 'inner knowing'? Also, the West Shield is the place of all 'tomorrows'. If you are afraid of the unknown, it may be time to clear away the fear. Strength to accomplish this is the greatest medicine of this card. In all cases, the West Shield speaks of ability to complete our goals, to acknowledge inner strength and the power to find and know the answers. Don't let opinions of others limit our ability.

Whirling Rainbow: The Whirling Rainbow tells you to remove any type of discord from your life in order to grow. Don't feed the negativity. Focus energy on creating new beauty and abundance in your life. Do not allow yourself to be caught up in the quicksand of petty tyrants, they are not worthy of your attention and energy. You do not need to take on the issues of others when the discord is due to their lack of unity within themselves.

BINGO again. BIG BINGO on that last one. (big gulp of wine)

The cards were good to me lastnight. All in all they told me I was heading in the right direction, not to fear what I AM fearing, to take my shit and get on with it and to avoid the influence of others as I do so. :) I got it. 

Check ya later..
