A TAROT READING

A TAROT READING is like being introduced to 78 people, all with different characteristics, views, ideas and personalities. They are being introduced to you to give you guidance along your path in life.
It is up to the READER to communicate with the QUERENT, the one who has requested the reading to interpret in the best possible way what each card represents and hence help the enquirer to think about this card in relation to their own life in the past, present and future, to form their own opinion as to what the message is for them therein and how to best use this interpretation to benefit their current situation.
Generally people want answers to their Love Life, their Work Situations, their Financial Status and their Health and Families and Friends.
They question what is around them and how to get the best out of their life.
The consultation with the Tarot cards often opens up channels of thought that they may not have considered until then and gives them insight and possible paths to follow always being the decider themselves as how to best live their lives.
The Reader should guide the questioner in this way...a path to resolving and understanding of their problems, mistakes, successes, events and people around them and make them think about which way is the best way for them to follow so they can continue to live a peaceful, happy and balanced life.

(4) THE EMPEROR

GOLD - MARS - ARIES - TZADDI
TS-TZ come from the original form of Language and found also today in words such as Caesar, Czar, Senate, Senior, Signor.
This card represents Dignity and Integrity, Government..A Crowned Male Figure.
Aries the Ram tamed by authority.The posture typifies SULPHUR, the fiery element of the Universe, the swift creative energy, the initiative of all being, the RAJAS of Hindu philosophy...Paternal Power - Government established. Stability, Conquest, Victory, Power, Ambition, Energy. Sulphur is also a symbol of domination of spirit over matter, hence the significance..The material world ordered by Spirit.
The symbol of Sulphur is the Triangle over the Cross, the TRIANGLE stands for Will, Male Energy, Manipura Chakra. The CROSS written like a four = Jupiter, the planet of benevolence and altruism.....The combination of the two, shows strength of will coupled with a very humane approach to the establishment of structure.
Number FOUR - A number of New Beginnings but independant of all that has gone before.
This card signifies Creation by Power and own Will without weapons..there is a shield of protection..Four sides to a building give stable structures in construction.
The EMPEROR has laid the foundations for further building. A highly motivated passionate nature, fully disciplined, educated, physically active, sensitive to beauty, a leader through example and having personal mastery.
This card in a reading reminds us of AUTHORITY, RESPONSABILTY and ACTION

She is light and the body of light, the truth behind the veil of light, the soul of light..She is Huntress and hunts by Enchantment.
Card interpretation would be - Focus on stabilising the inner world, pay attention to dreams and let intuition be the guide, keep balance and don't rock the boat.
Time for Meditation will bring revelations and rewards.

DUST DEVILS (Book of Lies) Falsely called...

In the wind of the mind arises the turbulence called I.
It breaks...Down shower the barren thoughts.
All life is choked.
This desert is the Abyss wherein is the Universe.
The stars are but thistles in that waste.
Yet this desert is but ONE spot accursed in a world of Bliss.
Now and again travellers cross the desert.
They come from the Great Sea and to the Great Sea they go.
And as they go they spill water....
One day they will irrigate the desert, till it flower.
See ! Five footprints of a Camel !

The card of the Magician..The Juggler..Le Bateleur..Il Mago..Mercury..Beth
The messenger of God - Creative Force in Action.
A strong card in the Tarot Major Arcana..It represents..A knowing on a deep level maybe not conciously..almost like a sixth sense..The word of creation whose speech is silence..It stands for Skills, wisdom, Potentials available, Intuition, Power and Opportunities unfolding...Inner guidance prompts Development and Fulfillment to one's true potential. It is Action in all forms and stages.
The Magician is the fluid basis of all transmission of activity, he is that electric charge which is the first manifestation (Number 1).
He juggles with the Four Symbols of the elements..He controls them..the Four elements of the Tarot..The Wands..The Cups..The Swords and the Discs.
The GNOSTICS would have related him to the first electric charge, the first manifestation of the ring of the ten indefinable ideas, a "Chain of Ten Aeons".
He is THOTH in the EGYPTIAN Tradition - Ibis - Concentration.
He is in a position of enlightenment, the great circle of the self..His energy passes down to earth from a higher level.
He is Mercury and in GREEK Mythology the parallel of Mercury was HERMES,the agent of Divine Will..
The Magician has vision.His influence is felt when we feel that all life is interconnected and existence is holistically linked.
SHAMEN call this the WEB OF POWER which touches all aspects of our lives but we are really not aware of it.
The Magician appearing in a reading should make us aware of our Communication, Skills and Creative Imagination.

PYRAMIDS AS PATHWAYS

This is the first in my series of lessons into the World of the Wisdom of the Ancients which took me on a different path in my life, a path of more in depth understanding of the mysteries we encounter in our lives.
My path began at the pyramids on the Giza Plateau in Egypt in 1985, whilst sitting there all alone one night in preparation for the Evening Spectacular of the Son et Lumiere show held there regularly for tourists. I sat alone, smoking a cigarette and feeling very at peace with the world and myself,I had been to Greece and visited the Temple of Apollo at Delphi where ancient peoples consulted with the Oracle there..I travelled the seas and visited the beautiful islands of Greece and saw the wonders around Athens..Without realising it I had started a sort of pilgrimage for myself..I travelled alone and kept to myself during my travels..and on this evening I also kept away from the people who had already arrived and were settling behind me. I wanted nothing between me and those mysterious pyramids that had drawn me so close to them, they felt magnetic...I looked at the sands that spread about them and shifted in the evening breeze as the winds played with them..I breathed in the clear dry air of that night, that air so clean and imbued with so much history and mystery..
It only took a split second...
Suddenly and totally unexpectedly, I was transported, transfixed in the shape of the Great Pyramid, it appeared as a Golden Road leading into the heavens above, it drew me along it and upwards and I felt like I wanted to keep going and reach the end of that golden road. My desire to get there was enormous.
I was reaching for that distant golden point in the distance in the heavens but couldn't reach it when I heard a Deep, Resonant, Clear Voice in my head saying..
It's not time to go all the way yet, do not worry about what is at the end of the Golden Path, return and live each day as it comes to you one day you will come this way when it is time...
I don't know how long this took, but when I came back to my senses and pinched myself to make sure I was still alive and in the same place I was when I was transported away, I felt a shaking all over my body and wanted to cry and did for quite a while.
I felt as though I'd left my body and then gone back to it..I didn't want to go back to it, I wanted to follow that Golden road..it drew me to a beautiful place but only tempted me with a vision of what is there but as yet unattainable..
It was painful, I really wanted to go back there, it was such a special place, nothing at all like what we know here on earth..that voice I will never forget.
I moved very slowly after that and remember none of the Son et Lumiere show that I had come to see...When I went to meet the guides from the hotel who brought me there, they looked at me strangely and asked if everything was ok because I looked 'different' my eyes looked different, my face looked different...
I didn't answer...there were no words to explain how I felt, how I had changed,how I now felt and how I now saw the world..I believe now that what I had been initiated into was an Enlightenment, a special gift which then I couldn't explain or understand, but it made me question many things.
The message was brief and resonated in my ears for years to come, but it was not only that, it was what had happened inside me, it was how I felt and now saw things.
I questioned and studied for years after that and many explanations were offered, but none of them satisfied me so I had to continue to question..
My studies took me into history books and all types of books..I learnt about Shamans, Gurus, Priests, Religions, Psychics, Buddha, Egyptology, Gnosis and so so much more.
I became more interested in the origins of Freemasonry, the Rosicrucians, the Templars and then delved more in depth with the TAROT...
All this study opened my mind even more and I followed the trail...I still follow it.
The feeling I was given at the pyramids has never left me, nor do I want it to as it confirms in me that there are powers outside of ourselves that we cannot see and we are limited in our understanding because we are human.
It gives me trust in my everyday life that really all will be as it needs to be and since then I have tried to give this gift of inner peace to others as well through my Psychic and Tarot work...I hope that I have succeeded in helping some people along the way to be more at peace within their lives.
I strive to do my best in all I do and try to serve others for my time here on earth.
I live and love in peace.....
