How to Read the Tarot

Begin by brewing a cup of tea,
a nervine, lemon balm or chamomile,
this is after all, your future.
A reading at the dark of the moon is best,
before the night creatures crawl
and bad humours fill the air.
Pick a circular deck, with a fairy-tale motif,
and no reversals.
Hold a question in your heart,
shuffle the cards and place them on the table.
Choose only two.
Like the ancient Israelites,
these are your seer stones, Urim and Thumimm,
black and white, yes or no.
Isn't that all you were asking?

I pulled the Hanged One--12--card from the Pholarchos Tarot.

Indeed the world is topsy turvy and often without sense. But sometimes we must turn ourselves upside down and inside out to make sense of it all.

Here in SW Florida the poinciana trees are in glorious bloom with their fiery orange red flowers. I always associate them with Mother's Day as they generally bloom by them.

This mother and grandmother prays unceasingly for my family and friends. So many in sorrow, so many in distress.

Prayer

I think about you
even when I'm not thinking.
I go beyond words
in my spoken prayers
and silent ones
sifting them together
sprinkling them in the air.
Breathing in, there is healing.
Breathing out, there is love.
I know why I breathe.

I wanted to stay awake for the lunar eclipse last night but failed.

I felt the full moon Scorpio energies all day, though.

Yesterday, in the parking lot of the grocery store I heard the loveliest music. Music that made me weep. There was a young, pregnant woman busking, playing electric violin. She had a sign that read, Pregnant, Diabetic, No money. I don't know if it was a scam or not, I gave her money just for the music.

In the grocery store I noticed a woman in the produce section. She was frail, emaciated, literally skin and bones. I continued weeping.

I am weeping for the people of Buffalo and all the others affected by this random hate and violence. I have no answers.

I pulled the Hermit card today. Pholarchos Tarot--The further you would travel out, the farther you must travel in. Discover what is needed and what is possible. Anchor well and let nothing stop you.

We need to travel beyond words, beyond concepts. How do we change the world?

May we all find answers.

The friend soars you up to where spikenard soothes the senses and the sky is piercing blue.The storm is behind now or in the waves far below. 6 of wings--Pholarchos Tarot


Attended a class yesterday--The Jesus Codes--a modality for healing powered by intent and faith.

Learned that all is vibration/energy/frequency and that essential oils hold the highest frequency of living things. Rose oil has been considered the highest, though recently Idaho Blue Spruce is considered to be higher. I couldn't find a frequency listed for spikenard, but as it appeared in my card reading today I purchased some and will begin using.

Spikenard is mentioned in the Bible--Mark:14:3, Song of Solomon 14:13 and John 12:3. The reference in John is to Mary Magdalene anointing Jesus' feet with nard.

Spikenard means "light" in Hebrew and is believed to assist in positive, life-giving intent.

After Yesterday's class I have been a little "spacey" all day, but paradoxically feeling calm and grounded. I am a Reiki Master, and always sense energy in my hands, but the attunements of yesterday seem to have boosted this energy. Myself, my family, the world all need this extra healing energy.

May the blessings of this Sunday in May flow to you and yours.
