Introduction to tarot – The Hierophant

The Hierophant tarot card

The Hierophant – Tarot Card # 5

Major Arcana – Tried & True Works

Astrological Sign: The Hierophant is Taurus and sometimes stubborn is good if it takes us consistently down the traditional path that works. Patience and persistence are strong traits that work well within trying to teach and lead others. While some may call it boredom others call it security?

The Hierophant tries to teach us all in the common language of conformity and acceptance within traditional laws and values.He is the negotiator, arbitrator and gives us the message that now is not the time to “Do your own Thing”.

We must heed his message that the common good may in this circumstance or situation be more important than our own agenda. Therefore, listen up, accept and move toward the conventional action and outcome. It truly will be best for all at this time.

Reversed is the double edge sword, you can be creative and unconventional in your approach and it will work well. You can also relish in non-traditional approaches in almost everything and everyone that crosses your path and find many new and creative ways of success outside the box.

The warning that comes with this is that if you always throw the baby out with the bathwater you can spend a tremendous amount of time wasted in re-creating the wheel and accomplishing little in tangible progress or return.

FaerieScopes for March 2010

To find your “Scope” for the month of March, grab your favorite snack and look at the Nutritional Facts, find the calorie count for a single serving and then reduce that number to a single digit.  For example:  A single serving of Peanut Butter is 190 calories, so you would add 1 + 9 + 0 = 10, then reduce 10 down by adding 1 + 0 = 1, so your “Scope” will be number 1 below.  Have fun!

Scope 0 ~ You will be presented with an opportunity this month.  You have a choice whether or not you choose to move forward or stay where you currently are.  The nice thing about this opportunity, is that it doesn’t knock only once, so you can choose to move forward at a later date, if you decide to hold off now.  Spending time near bodies of water would do your heart well.

Scope 1 ~  Music and sound is where it’s at for you this month.  Surround yourself with inspirational sounds.  It may be a CD of your favorite band, but it might also be those wonderful sounds of nature, like the ocean.  Move your body!  Go out dancing.

Scope 2 ~  Learn to use your voice this month.  Speak your truth.  You are completely entitled to your opinion.  If someone does not want to listen to what you have to say, you may want to examine how your relationship is really working.  Rose quartz would be a nice stone for you to carry this month.

Scope 3 ~ Pay attention to your dreams, there is an important message there.  This is also a wonderful month to re-examine your goals, evaluate what is still relevant and important to you.  Adjust them if necessary.  Draw a Faerie.

Scope 4 ~ Remember that things are not always as they appear, especially this month.  Sometimes it’s how we are looking at things, that causes a little distortion.  Spend some time in nature.

Scope 5 ~  March is a time of contemplation for you.  Planning the next step.  Thinking about things, not necessarily, doing.  Try brainstorming. Fill your birdfeeders!

Scope 6 ~ This month is all about tapping into that powerful feminine energy, the Yin energy of the Universe.  Yes, this applies to you men, too!  Love and nurturing is available for you, if you choose to accept it.  Draw with colored pencils or better yet, crayons.

Scope 7 ~ You take on the roll of Sage this month.  Someone comes to you for advice.  Remember, you can only guide, you cannot fix things for them.  You can offer only gentle nudges and choices. Visit a nursery or flower shop.

Scope 8 ~  Don’t be too set in your ways this month.  Be willing to change your mind, when new ideas bubble forward.  Leave a little offering out for our Fae friends sometime this month.  Blow bubbles.

Scope 9 ~ You need to get out of the house and do something unexpected this month.  Something different than you’ve ever done before.  Enjoy the ride, you might just have a really great time.  Plant a flower.

Introduction to Tarot – The Emperor

The Emperor  Tarot Card

The Emperor Tarot Card # 4

Major Arcana – Fathers Authority and Guidance

Astrological Sign: With this cards planet as Mars we are seeing the best in combination energy of Scorpio and Aries. We have courageous, determined adventurous traits dominated by a quick-witted, charismatic and passionate mind. But our darker side can bring forth jealous, stubborn and sometimes a quick-tempered approach. The keyword for Scorpio/Aries combo is STRONG and this can be really helpful or make things extremely challenging.

When the Emperor, Father figure arrives upright in his chair it cautions us to recognize and use all our power and logic in a situation. Then use this logic to master, govern and lead in a situation. When it represents another in the tarot reading you need to listen or seek out advice from an older wiser soul than yours before proceeding.

The information you seek or the answer you feel within may not seem the easiest solution but it comes from a practical and wise space therefore heed the advice, change course if necessary and move on in confidence of success.

This card can literally indicate immanent Fatherhood, successful fertility wishes or needing to take control of a situation at hand and bring balance to it through your wisdom of lessons and experience.

You will need to either find fatherly advice and direction or provide it for others.

When reversed the Emperor represents in you or others a less than flattering view of maturity, stubbornness and weakness in facing a problem or situation. It indicates a lack of leadership and a more dictatorial approach taking place that will not be successful in outcome and may actually bring the situation to an abusive or at the very least an uncomfortable place.

When you see the Emperor reversed stop, take a thoughtful look at things before proceeding for everyone’s sake.

Introduction to Tarot – The Empress

The Empress tarot card

The Empress – Tarot card # 3

Major Arcana | The Time is Ripe for all Things

Astrological Sign: Taurus and Libra are both within the Empress through the planet Venus. With the strong Warm-hearted and loving patience and determination of Taurus she can then balance the reversed Empress that can bring in indecisive and gullible Libra mindset that can leave yourself and situations at a standstill.

The Empress is “Mother Earth” and represents all that is coming into fruition at this time. The present is right for action, and will bring results of happiness, fertility and contentment.

Upright the Empress smiles upon us and gives birth to many ideas and situations with tenderness and promise of prosperity and much abundance in our outcomes.

When the Empress falls over she feels completely bound and unable to bring anything to resolution or completion. This reversed position often represents problems with fertility, or abundance in any area such as children, crops, money or material.

There are often problems at work and if that is not bad enough then also know that there could also be problems quietly burning on the home fires.

Now is not the time to start, change or introduce any new ideas or life changes. Now is the time to pay attention to your home life before things get out of hand and look carefully at any planning you are doing for any project, watch the details or things can fall flat.

High Priestess – Introduction to tarot Series

high priestess tarot card

The High Priestess – Tarot Card #2

The Major Arcana – Trust Your Intuition First

Astrological sign: By bringing in a Pisces/Virgo blend these polar opposites make a perfect balance of emotional and yet analytical reasoning.

When the upright High Priestess appears in a Tarot reading it is “Go with your Gut” time. In her balanced wisdom she is signalling to you that you already have the right answer within your subconscious and intuition you just need to stop and listen to the message within then follow that lead.

Being the essence of the divine feminine she is showing you that the very best of sexual chemistry is in store for you with your perfect mate. If he is not there yet, he is coming into your life soon and if there was ever a time for a soul-mate to appear this is it.

Now, when the regal lady turns she is then not to be trusted. The information she brings can be inaccurate and sometimes even untruthful. So if the Priestess is reversed then proceed with caution because “all to be seen may not meet the eye” and at the very least someone is manipulating the situation and it is probably not in your favour.

When the Priestess appears either way pay attention to your first guess and go with it.

Affirmations…. The Power of Positive Thinking!

An affirmation is a series of positively stated words affirming your health, strength or wisdom.  The affirmation is repeated again and again while in a relaxed or meditative state.  Affirmations enable you to transform negative thinking habits into positive ones.  They require energy and effort.  Affirmations help cultivate wholesome/healthy states of mind in four ways.

We all have some positive thoughts, feelings and beliefs.  Repeating affirmations encourages the continued growth of these states of mind such as love, generosity, abundance and peace.  Affirmations protect and further develop the strengths already manifest.

  1. Affirmations enable those positive thoughts, feelings and beliefs that are latent within us to emerge.  We choose to call forth these qualities through the power of sound, speaking affirming words.
  2. Affirmations help us to let go of limiting feelings, attitudes and beliefs.  We do not give energy to these thoughts.  When a limiting thought arises we notice it and then choose to create and affirm a healthy thought.
  3. As we work with affirmations we gradually become aware of the people, situations and attitudes of mind that foster healthy qualities.  We make clear choices to stay away form situations that encourage limiting thought forms.  For example, we choose to spend less time in places or with people who encourage the abuse of alcohol or drugs.

To create your own affirmations think of qualities you wish to affirm in yourself.  Then state these qualities as simply as possible.  Always state them in the present tense.  In that way the unconscious mind understands the goal and will work to bring it about.  Say, “I am strong, energetic and competent” rather than “I am going to grow strong, energetic and competent”.  The latter puts the situation in the future and the mind won’t respond to it.  Your power is always in the present.  State the affirmation in the positive or you will be encouraging a negative mind state.  Say, “I am wide awake and alert”, rather than “I am not sleepy”.  You may want to write out your affirmations and tape them to your mirror or refrigerator – someplace where you will see them daily.  This is an excellent means of reinforcement.

Auras – What are they, and what do they mean?

What is an Aura?

The electromagnetic field which surrounds all things is known as the aura.  This force field may be seen psychically as a fluid, pulsating, oval-shaped ring of light, or it may appear as a swirling pattern of light with several colours shimmering through it.  For some it will not translate into visual terms but will be sensed or felt.  The aura has actually been photographed through the use of Kirlian photography, named after the Russian scientist who discovered the method.

A person who is highly skilled in aura reading may gather information about another’s mental and emotional state, as well as information concerning his/her physical health and spiritual development, by observing the aura.  Metaphysics teaches that the aura consists of seven interwoven rings of light, each revealing a different aspect of the person.  The first ring reveals his/her state of health, the second ring is emotions, the third his/her intellectual make-up, the fourth is the higher mind (imagination and intuition), the fifth his/her spirit, or link between the individual and the cosmos, and the sixth and seventh reveal cosmic aspects.  These last two are not usually visible on most people.

The aura is superimposed over the etheric, which is the invisible double of the physical body and is shed along with the physical at death.  The etheric is the animal force of the body. It may be observed as a bluish haze around the body.  Its thickness is determined by the health and vitality of the individual – one-half to four inches.  The etheric body has the function of drawing in life energy from the atmosphere and distributing it along the system.

Once the physical body is shed at death, the etheric is shed also.  However, it may take a while for the energy of the etheric to dissipate.  It is something like turning the electric stove burner on so that it gets hot.  When you turn it off, it will remain warm for a while.  Often what people think of as a ghost is really the etheric energy of the person.  It has no consciousness but follows the habits and patterns of the body to which it belonged.  People who die suddenly, in an accident for example, may leave behind a strong etheric that will take some time to dissipate.

Most people can be taught to see auras; the first ring emanating from the physical etheric body is the one usually seen.  It is not necessary to perceive the individual layers of the aura, or to distinguish the aura from the etheric, in order to gain information about the person you are observing.

When first observing auras, the colours are sometimes not perceived.  Only a halo-shaped yellowish or whitish glow may be apparent or the colours, when observed, will be seen with the inner and not the physical eye, so that you may only feel or sense the colour.  With practice you will be able to perceive the colours visually.  Although colour is usually thought of as an absolute, it is really very subjective.  Because of this variation and because the aura is continually pulsating, two people observing the same person may pick up different colours.  every emotion leaves its trace in the aura, so the colours fluctuate with your moods.  Often, however, one or two colours will remain predominant.  As you observe the aura for colours, allow the awareness of the colour and its meaning to rise anew with each aura you observe.

Aura color meaning

Here are some common colour associations:

RED – energy, strength, courage

BRICK RED – anger

DEEP RED – sensuality

CRIMSON – loyalty

PINK – cheerfulness, optimism

ROSE – self-love

ORANGE – joy, vitality, balance of mental and physical

YELLOW – wisdom, creativity, spiritual

GREYISH YELLOW – fear

GREEN – ingenuity, compassion, growth

PALE GREEN – healing power

GREYISH GREEN – pessimism, envy

BLUE – spiritual, idealistic, imaginative, intellectual

GREYISH BLUE – melancholy

ICE BLUE – intellectual

PURPLE – spiritual power

ORCHID – idealism

WHITE – highly spiritual (rarely seen)

BLACK – depression, death (rarely seen)

BROWN – earthy

DULL BROWN – low energy

GREY – fear, boredom, repressed anger

GOLD – pure knowing and intuition

SILVER – similar to gold, very developed psychically

How to see auras

To observe the aura, you need to look with soft or blurred eyes.  If you wear glasses, it is often easier to see the aura without them.  Visualizing auras does not require the kind of intense focus needed for reading or driving.  You need to relax and allow your self to perceive it.  The aura surrounds the entire body, although it is more easily observable around the head and shoulders.  It may take several attempts before you see the aura.  You may see it at the first attempt but not trust it, feeling that it was only an after-image, or that your eyes were playing tricks on you.

Why not give it a try for yourself and see what colours surround those closest to you ….

Scope 4 ~ You need to get moving.  “I like to move it, move it, move it,” should be your mantra this month.  No rest for you.  Go out dancing.

Scope 5 ~ Check your records, is it time for a “tune up?”  This could be you or it could be your car.  Check both.  Better to do that routine maintenance, rather than wait for something to go wrong.

Scope 6 ~ For you, it’s all things in moderation this month.  Balance is the key.  Don’t over indulge, but don’t restrict too much either.  Go ahead, have that piece of chocolate, but just one!

Scope 7 ~ You have a project that needs to be shaken up, take it back down to the foundation and begin again.  There is a solid base to rebuild from, it will be better this time around.

Scope 8 ~ There is something you’ve been contemplating for quite sometime, but are choosing not to act on it.  Let it go.  Once you do, you will find a new door opens up.

Have a Faerie filled, fun month!

Introduction to Tarot – The Magician

The Magician tarot card

Tarot – The Magician #1

The Major Arcana – Making our own reality

Astrological sign: The Aries sign brings with it the unconquerable, determined energy of success of your own creative power and doing.

When the Magician appears you will see your ideas turn from thought and planning to reality right before your eyes. Sometimes almost effortlessly we are able to create our own reality into something tangible and with great success.

In a reading it tells us that something wonderful in our lives is being created and we are empowered and have the motivation to do this ourselves. When you see the Upright Magician don’t be afraid, change is already coming your way, it’s inevitable and usually it is already a success – at this particular time action is our friends as we hold the almost magical power of manifestation.

When the Magician is reversed, like standing on our head we are feeling Topsy – Turvey or out of control of outcomes. We are only half engaged not doing our best and not believing wholeheartedly in what we are doing or what the outcome will be.Don’t get half into the game, get in or get out and in the reversal position the best decision is to temporarily get out.

We are being told that our current efforts are being blocked by negative thoughts; you are not ready to walk onto new beginnings. Study the situation and wait for a more opportune time.
