Injury!

Hi Everyone-

Sorry I’ve been absent, I was working hard to go through boxes in my garage and consolidate, when I wrenched my shoulder… I’ve been out of commission! and on pain killers.

Hope to be back asap………..

As an update to my last post- it wasn’t my eldest son…he happily got word that he has successfully bought his first home! hooray!

My other son, on the other hand, has definitely had some delays with major paperwork/red tape in trying to get everything in place to transfer out to BC…..just can’t call it whether he will get to go or not! right down to the wire.

Missing my blog!

(21)Mountain+(30)Lily+(13)Child extra card: (27)Letter

I am having difficulty stringing this one together, to be honest. It looks like there will be obstacles and delays (Mountain) for my male child…. I looked at Lily as showing “masculine”  & older…so this would be one of my sons. The obstacles are around a document. This could be around either one of my grown sons! lol  my eldest (which is probably what the Lily is pointing to) is trying to buy his first home in the states, and is waiting to hear if he got it or not.  My other son, who is 19 and a mature adolescent, could also be represented here, as he is waiting to hear if he has gotten residency at the school he plans to go to–

Now funny enough, as I write this, 2 things come to mind: I did a playing card reading on my 19 year old, asking whether or not everything would fall into place in time for him to make the Fall semester, and it said “no” it would be Winter.  Looking at these cards in that light, they show delays (Mountain) until Winter (Lily)…  He thinks he’s leaving in about a week and a half, even though everything is still up in the air financially, and we don’t even have plane tickets!! I’ve still got a sneaking suspicion that there are delays around him, sorry to say.

I will update-

Reading using Madame Seaqueen’s trigger layout~

 

PAST               NOW             IMMED             SOON

This morning I did two Trigger layouts; one for my husband, and one for myself. My husband’s reading was over-the-top positive! money coming, success, recognition blah blah blah

Mine was the complete opposite! but for good reason. I’m dealing with a personal issue that has knocked me sideways, and is forcing me to deeply think about how I view myself, my life, and even womanhood. I’ve agreed to an operation this Fall, that I have spent alot of time and energy resisting for years. So, here are my topsy turvey cards:

Trigger row: Book+Woman+Tree+Coffin -  The Tree +Coffin combination really cuts to the chase on this one; it’s describing a  woman who is either deeply depressed, or who’s life force is seriously low. I’m afraid that I can identify with both at the moment. My medical problems have left me continually struggling with severe anemia. I think the Book before all this is saying that it’s a bit of a surprise that this woman is so deeply depressed! (I am the positive thinker of the family, always pivoting and finding the silver lining in every situation…. I have not been able to do so around this matter, and I have surprised my family, I think, in being quite down! they don’t know how to respond!)

Past, or leaving: Sun+Book+House- none of the combination meanings that I’m familiar with really fit in this case, so I read it singly. There was success, joy, optimism, victory (Sun) that came as a surprise (Book) for the family (House). Actually, this is true! We just won a court case after 6 years of fighting- that was definitely a surprise victory!

Now: Cross+Woman+Clouds - Unfortunately, I think this describes how I’m feeling right now. I am filled with grief and pain, and an awful lot of uncertainty. I just haven’t gotten my energy aligned yet with having this surgery, and yet I know that the time has come…it’s my resistance that causing me all the pain.

Immediately: Birds+Tree+Tower-  The Tree+Tower represents the hospital at the moment, and I am due to go in tomorrow for tests. I thought I was going to go on my own, but the Birds may be saying that my husband is going to want to accompany me. The Birds can represent companionship/couples, as well as talks, meetings, etc. It’s possible that we have a deep spiritual conversation while we’re there. (if you knew us, you’d know that things like that happen in the weirdest of places! lol)

Soon: Mice +Coffin+Heart- Well, this was a promising end to a not so nice week or so The Mice+Coffin is saying that there will be a calming down, relief, no more stress….and with the Heart, it’s just expanding it to say that my emotional pain will be relieved in some way. The trauma I feel, will lessen. Thanks for that!

I think one other thing to note, is that this reading begins with the Sun and ends with the Heart; so it seems to be reassuring me that this will all pass, and that my heart will be full again…..

update: I can partially update that the Immediate row (Birds/Tree/Tower) came true today- hubby surprised me by wanting to come and be supportive at the hospital while I had some tests done. Ironically, he also brought with him his latest metaphysical-type book on 2012, and as we were waiting for me to be called, ended up in that “spiritual conversation” that I joked about! lol  these cards really fit the bill so hopefully very shortly I will be feeling alot better emotionally too… boy, am I ever trying.

(10)Scythe+(21)Mountain+(12)Birds extra card: (7)Snake

I had a falling out with my mate the other day. It was very unexpected, and left me really perplexed because it became obvious that we weren’t “on the same page” about a certain topic in the way that I had been led to believe. Frankly, I was pretty hurt, and withdrew.

These cards are a reflection of that episode, I think. The Scythe+Mountain can mean “withdraw, slow procedure, something not done yet”; and the Mountain+Birds can mean reconciliation or reconnection.  The extra card, the Snake, combined with the Birds just describes that this is about an arguement/disagreement.

The cards seem to be saying that there will be a reconciliation, but it’s not going to happen quickly, there are things to be ironed out yet.  My entire feeling of being “in sync” went out the window, and it’s going to take some time to feel like I can trust what’s being presented to me. Doesn’t that stink?

update: things are on the mend, but it is taking time. We’re polite, but the closeness still isn’t right yet..most likely my fault, as I am having a bit of a hard time letting go of some things that were said..

(1)Horseman+(10)Scythe+(3)Ship extra card:(5)Tree

It’s been an incredibly slow day, computer-wise, as I’ve been stuck being forced to save data to dvd and to an external hard drive. No viruses or anything, but just clogged up with too much info! (probably like the way my brain feels lately! lol couldn’t resist)

I’m featuring the elusive Novosibirsk Lenormand, which I have digitally but not physically- if anyone knows where you can get your hands on them, please let me know! (Please click on the cards to get a close-up of the cards)

I did a series of 3 card draws, with different types of decks and one thing popped out as being related between 2 of the draws. The other I will post on my sister site, The Card Lover, and see what you think.

In this Lenormand draw, it seems that I will be receiving news of an accident, or surgery (Horseman+Scythe) from a distance. A distance for me, means overseas usually. OR (and this is important!) the Scythe + Ship combined could be referring to a car accident or mishap of some kind, and that’s not necessarily at a distance! hhhmmmm…

I pulled another card, as I wondered if this was a “decision” being made at a distance instead, but when I saw the Tree card, I am pretty certain that this is a medical/health issue.

Now, whether or not the other drawing really is related to this lenormand draw, I can’t be sure, but it was kind of strange that it seemed to echo it…. I will update.

Another layer to this draw, could be that the Horseman+Scythe refers to “shocking news”. That came to me in the middle of the night! lol I’ve never thought of it that way… Shocking news coming from a distance….either about health or a spiritually based matter-

The latter has come to pass, but I still think this is one of those draws that has many levels of meaning.

(23)Mice+(14)Fox+(32)Moon extra card: (22)Crossroads

I didn’t relate too well to this draw this morning; I keep getting cards to do with people I know, and not necessarily about me! I find this annoying at times! sigh…it’s all good, as long as I know what it’s about in the end…

The Mice and the Fox describe either a stressful job, or a stressed employee. The Fox +Moon could be describing a psychic or spiritual counselor or an artist of some kind.

So maybe I’m picking up on someone I know who might be one of these things and happens to be stressed out!

With the Crossroads being last, this person is being presented with a choice in which direction to go next.

Twice, I have picked up sonething about either a psychic, or spiritual counselor, and twice I kind of discounted it (!#$%!) only to have such a person contact me within a day or two and make the draw correct! So I will trust that this has some meaning, and wait and see………..

It’s so important not to try to make it fit something that you already have in your mind; that blocks what the intuition/and cards are trying to tell you. Although sometimes it really does just pop out at me and “I know”.   I have friends who continually do that without thinking about it, and I’ll try to take a step back and read it more generally just to get a different perspective  on it. When you try to force it into a certain meaning, you usually get it wrong! lol

Here’s another scenario: the Moon+Crossroads could be talking about emotional choices being made. Now, the Mice+Fox could be stress around work for us, or it could be describing a deceitful, manipulative individual (I can think of one!!) who happens to be stressed out because they have to make some choices they don’t want to make, and it’s making them very distressed!! (mice and moon)…considering this person likes to present herself as a “spiritual counselor” this may all be about her!!! LOL   oh….I hope you’re really stressed

update: this came to pass the next day. It reaffirms to me that I must just trust what the cards are telling me, and not try to pigeon-hole them….it’s getting better and better!

A friend of mine, who is a professional psychic & counselor called me about a matter that was stressful to her, and needed to make some decisons on. I hadn’t talked to her in awhile, so wasn’t thinking of her at all …I LOVE THESE CARDS!!!

(4)House+(29)Woman+(33)Key extra card: (18)Dog

I like this House card! (but I wouldn’t want to clean it!) -

OK, what came to me right away was that there is a lady coming to the home, who is either going to be a key friend to me/us, or a spiritual friend…….. (Key+Dog). There actually is a new lady coming to the home shortly, to do her Reiki Master’s Degree with my husband, so maybe it refers to her. We have made some amazing friends through the years that way

or possibly one of those “karmic” friends of the family (female) is going to reappear…?

Woman+Key is a significant female….add the Dog, and it’s someone I already know (hmm), either connected to the family, or is contacting the family… that’s about all I can think of…. we’ll see!

Ahh! I’m going to break with my own tradition and read the playing card inserts for fun! I’ve got the King of Hearts (which is my husband) and the Queen of Spades (probably the lady coming) with the 8 of Diamonds (extra money coming) and the 10 of Hearts (happy and celebrating)!

(15)Bear+(9)Bouquet+(1)Horseman extra card: (2)Clover!

I did this draw on Sunday, and frankly couldn’t get to the computer…. I can understand why some are taking a break during August, but I’m going to keep trying to get here daily, if it’s at all possible!

This draw was so good, that I had to post it to balance the other “not so good” ones

The Bear in Sylvie’s system represent money, financial affairs, financial windfalls….it can also refer to one’s stomach & nutrition. I think that in this instance it’s talking about finances..

The Bear+Bouquet combination immediately said “financial recovery” to me….it’s one of those times when something just pops out, and you need to honor it.

The Horseman refers to soon, and combined with the Clover hints at lucky opportunities coming.

Another way to put these cards together, which would be equally valid, would be to say that the person was going to have a happy encounter, (or possibly a lucky one at that) while dining out at a nice restaurant…    OR

that there could be lucky money coming to a handsome young man I know…now that’s interesting, I wonder if my son will get a last minute reprieve, and get the student loan that he applied for? He has just about ruled out his plans to go to a school over in British Columbia because of all of our personal delays. Maybe he gets a lucky break.  hhmmm… there are definitely updates coming with the Horseman there.

(1)Horseman+(27)Letter+(23)Mice

 I saw these, and almost snuck them back in the deck! My husband, when he’s home, always wants to know what I get for a daily draw (he’s fascinated with my study of the Lenormand!) - but when I saw these, I knew he would immediately jump to the conclusion that it had to do with him…and I don’t necessarily.

The Letter and the Mice combined, describe stressful news, or a lost letter…something in written form that doesn’t make you feel all that great :(…. and with the Horseman card there first, it’s telling me that there is written communication coming shortly that I probably won’t like.

What popped into my head immediately, is that I might get word that there have been complications with my friend overseas from his surgery…he was certain that he would be back online last Wednesday, but I haven’t heard anything yet.

OR… I receive news from a young man that is stressful in some way….

I really should have just binned this one! lol

(12)Birds+(20)Garden+(36)Cross extra card: (3)Ship

I drew these cards this morning, and had a few ideas.

What first came to mind was hearing in conversation about the difficulty that some travellers/passengers might have had on a plane, or some other mode of transport.

OH! twice, that actually happened..a friend just got back from travelling yesterday, and had lots of delays flying.He was telling me all his grief over it.

 The other time was just now listening on the radio about the grief and horror of the Edmonton, Alberta man who murdered and decapitated a poor young man on a Greyhound bus yesterday! I turned on a talk show on the radio, and they were all discussing how the other passengers reacted…very very sad.

Another possibility for these cards is the telephone conversation I just had with someone, who went to a very religious wedding this past week, where prayers were said over everything! He had travelled quite a distance to be at the wedding.

All of the above fit!

(6)Clouds+ (22)Crossroads+(25)Ring

After taking some muscle relaxants for my immobile neck and shoulders (!*!) I’m feeling a wee bit better. Thought I’d try to post this morning’s draw..

I drew the Clouds, the Crossroads, & the Ring.  This seems to be saying that there will be some uncertainty around a decision to be made, or of the choices being presented, concerning an agreement. This again may be referring to an agreement that is in the talk stages with our lawyer.

My other thought with this draw, is that it is reflecting my feelings of confusion and whether or not I’m really committed to going through with the surgery I agreed to yesterday… yikes! I’m not going to think about it today! that’s the only thing I’m certain of!  oh well…

(27)Letter+(1)Horseman+(28)Man extra card: (18)Dog

One thing that stuck out at me was the Man + Dog. He is either a good friend, a partner, or even my husband! Whoever it is, there is some great news coming shortly. I think the letter might do with a contract or papers…possibly news of such coming from our lawyer…OR our partner.

It hits me as being something coming for my husband really soon…and anything but continued waiting, is welcome

(5)Tree+(33)Key+(35)Anchor

I looked at these cards this morning, and was pretty positive that they pertain to what is going to happen tomorrow.

The Tree can pertain to one’s health. The Key shows that it’s important, and that also there will be an answer/solution to a health issue….The Anchor continues that theme, as the Key+Anchor can represent long term solutions.

I have an appointment tomorrow with my GYN, and will be discussing going forward with major surgery. I have let too many years go by, unwell, trying to avoid a surgery, that now looks almost appealing….I think I’m surrendering to the inevitable…

Another thought to these cards: the Tree+Key could be referring to karmic lessons, major spiritual lessons…(something my mate and I have defintely feel that we have been going through this past year); and again the Key+Anchor could mean that there is a stable, long term solution around this….both the Key and the Anchor say “This is it! Success at your door…stability at last”

I think that this draw probably means both…whether health, or spiritual, both are welcome at this point

update: I did indeed talk about a long term solution to my medical problems with my doctor the next day….it looks as though I will be having surgery in October. I wish I was happy about it, I’m not! I cried all the way home…I’m going to need to shift my energy on this subject before I go into the hospital..that’s for sure..

delays….

 I will be posting this afternoon on both blogs-

–please come back to visit– must attend to

banking business in town

 

I have updated the last two posts, please scroll down to see the meanings of these draws!

(17)Storks+(3)Ship+(21)Mountain extra card: (6)Clouds

Today for a daily draw I received the Storks, the Ship, the Mountain, and the Clouds.

Reading them from left to right, I came up with the story that someone moving to somewhere distant, or possibly emigrating (Storks+Ship) are going to find obstacles and delays moving forward (Mountain). This in turn, will cause a bit of confusion, or irritability…or the situation will keep changing! (Clouds).

Now I do know someone who wants to emigrate from the US to Canada, but it’s not for awhile yet, so I don’t think I would have it in a daily draw…

More likely, it has to do with my husband. He is due to fly out tonight from visiting his daughter, and return home! It’s been a long week (it’s tough having time to study cartomancy non-stop!) oops! - I wondered if the Storks card was more hinting at unexpected surprises around travelling (Ship). The Mountain and the Clouds screams 3 things to me: delays due to bad weather, and delays that make everything uncertain as to when he’s actually going to get to fly…and delays that make him cranky! He’s so ready to get back home after sleeping on a blow up mattress for a week! I’ll update….

update: My first impressions about these cards were the right ones. Going with your gut, even when you can’t place it at the time, is the message we continue to get as we study any divination system.

The Storks+Ship, meaning moving away has to do with my 19 year old son. He was due to leave next month to go across country to a new university. He has been so excited, even though he didn’t have everything in alignment yet. He got word that he wouldn’t be able to get a dorm room, they were swamped. This changes alot, as we don’t see how we can swing it, and never mind find a place for him while we live on the other side of the continent. He also hasn’t heard back about his application for a student loan… so I seriously think that these cards are talking about delays for his big plans, and it causing him upset and confusion. I have had at least 3 playing card readings this week showing the same theme, but it went as far as saying that he’d go ultimately in the Winter!
