Dream Clarification - Sort of?

6/28/2018

This was a great spread - but I am going to need to really think about how it meshed with my dream this morning.

First the cards:
Justice - Fairness-Rewards-Punishments
Justice is best served by a fair and impartial judge. Weighing both sides and finding balance. Now it's time to get what you deserve but will it be a lollypop or a wooden spoon spanking?

The World - Achievement - Dreams Realized - End of a Stage or Journey
You have got it all now, no more keeping up with the Joneses, they have to keep up with you! A goal has been realized or a stage of something has been completed successfully.

The Knight of Pentacles - Ambition - Reward
This is a busy guy. A go-getter who keeps nose to the grindstone and pinches his earned pennies. He can afford the best life can offer but those tastes can keep him working overtime.  This can also mean a reward that is long overdue is coming your way.

So, for a past/present/future or even the mind/body/spirit - this spread bodes well. I have weighed all sides, gotten to my goal and now my reward. Nice!  But how does this even help me with my dream this morning?

I dreamed I was with someone I don't actually know, I think he stood for a goal or something I would like?  I am working on that part.  He took me to his place, I think it was overseas, and then disappeared.  I had little money and no idea how I was going to get home or where I was going to stay.  I managed to get one hotel room but the cost was $300 a night so I could only stay one night. I was in this strange mall/airport area - and I kept trying to call him to ask for help and wtf... for some reason I had 3 phones, they seemed old, like the old razr flip phones.

Whenever I got him on the phone he either ignored my pleas for help or changed the subject and said he was going on a trip and wasn't that awesome? I was so frustrated and upset and abandoned feeling. (which is a common theme I have with ex type dreams)

I finally threatened him by saying I would tell? Something like that because I had to leave that hotel room and didn't know where to go next.  He did call back but said nothing. So, I think I went to someone in that mall area and asked for help.  I was trying to get my parents number out of all those phones but they wouldn't work right or I kept looking at the wrong one.

I think some sort of police came to help me... they arranged my flights and what nots and I think I finally got my parents number and that is about where I woke up.

I need to think about this one further and I really need to start a dream tab because lately they have been really good reads and helpful to boot. I just wanted to get this down now so I can analyze it.

Pixie's Astounding Lenormand Deck

I have seen the Lenormand cards all over the place on Instagram and LOVE the look of them - so I decided to give them a try.  I haven't really delved into them yet but they are a smaller deck, 36 cards and this particular deck is based on Pamela Colman-Smiths Tarot Art. And I adore Pixie's art.  

While I have no idea how it works, I think I am going to like the system.

The Hermetic Tarot

Now I know Tarot.... well, I am always still learning but I have the jist of it and I think this deck is going to be a challenge.  I have been wanting it for a while and it finally came back in stock again. I adore the art - symbols based on The Golden Dawn, and has all sorts of things going on.  It might take me another 20 years to even get a handle on this one deck but I am very excited about it!

The Fool's Journey -  The Superconscious - The Final Line - Completion

The final line of the Major Arcana

15 - The Devil
16 - The Tower
17 - The Star
18 - The Moon
19 - The Sun
20 - Judgement
21 - The World

This last line concerned itself with the superconscious, the development of a spiritual awareness within us.  This goes beyond just us, as these last 7 cards depict confrontation and then unity with the great forces of life. 

These ideas often seem kinda "out there," to some people because as a society we aren't really taught that these are important ideas.  So, this last line can often be uncomfortable and understanding the cards and ideas might be harder for some but in the end, we are rewarded greatly!

We started with the Fool and as we travelled through the cards, we integrated the lessons of those cards as we moved forward. Becoming more whole, more ourselves. Keep learning the lessons and integrating what you learn. It is a life long journey but a very fulfilling one.

Thank you for joining me on this journey with this Vice Versa Tarot deck. I really enjoyed the extra layer these cards added by having 2 sides and I hope you enjoyed it too!

The Fool's Journey - 21 The World- Learning The Tarot

Fool's Journey Day 22

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 21- The World

This side: A laurel wreath looped with gold rings forms a portal between worlds and through this opening a dancer emerges, veiled in purple, the color of wisdom.  She is ecstatic and free from all constriction. At the corners of the wreath are images representing the 4 fixed signs of the zodiac: Aquarius (angel) Scorpio (eagle) Leo (lion) and Taurus (bull) as well as the 4 elements and archangels.  

In a reading: Completion. This is the last card in the Major Arcana and the 4 divine beings are here to see that a cycle has reached its end. The dancer (from the back of the Death card,) and her pose evokes joy and spiritual surrender. Life has triumphed and the soul renewed. You did it. Now get ready to start the next cycle!

That side: Now, the wreath is an ouroboros, no beginning and no end. The snake eating its own tail represents eternal movement and regeneration. Energy that is consumed and renewed. The  cyclical nature of all things, starting over after it ends. 

In a reading: If you are not feeling any sense of completion think about things as cycles instead of a straight line. Everything is linked but we need to mark milestones. Acknowledge the achievements and be joyful.  Don't hurry onward - everything is happening just as it should.

The Fool's Journey - 20 Judgement- Learning The Tarot

Fool's Journey Day 21

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 20 - Judgement

This side: A man, woman and child stand on barren, cracked earth, looking up at the angel of resurrection. They come naked and without shame, hiding nothing.

In a reading: A time of spiritual awakening has arrived. Now you are being asked to look over your past and atone for any wrongs you may have committed. It is time to ask forgiveness and offer forgiveness, to others and to yourself.  This atonement is not groveling or self-loathing, it is accepting human failings - a gift and opportunity to wash your spirit clean.

That side: We can see that the people have been called from their graves to be judged. The man holds a skull to show the transitory nature of flesh. The woman holds a golden egg that contains the Universe and primal creative power. The child's hands are empty as he has nothing to prove and has a clear innocent conscious. Horus the God of the Rising Sun soars above them.

In a reading: Time to consider what you would bring before the angel of Judgement. What do you understand of your life so far and what can you offer as you move into your next phase? What do you need to do to be as lighthearted as the young child?

Fool's Journey Day 20

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 19 - The Sun

This side: The Sun child, innocence and joy, is wearing a red tunic, a symbol of action in the world. His horse companion ready to carry him wherever he needs to go. This child only knows goodness and like those sunflowers behind him, always turns to the light.  One of the most positive cards in the deck, The Sun shines for all life that flourishes in its warmth.

In a reading: In any reading this card bodes well. No matter your own doubts or worries, success is assured here.  The Universe is in your favor now and if you have been waiting for the perfect time to start something, now is that time. Let your joy shine - all will work for you now!

That side:  The Sun has set here leaving stars, also small suns, in its wake.  The horse and child give comfort to each other knowing the sun will be back.  An obelisk to the Sun God Ra rises before a walled fortress. Sentinel's stand guard at the borders of the child's garden.  Mountainous lands look challenging in the background but the optimistic Sun Child will still go forward to share the light.

In a reading: The Sun card is positive on both of its sides. The difference now being that your doubts or fears are justified.  Be aware of challenges and be prepared for any troubles you think may come. But like the other side, all will be well. Always keep moving forward - just be sure to have a plan for any contingencies that may be in your path. The morning will always bring more light!

The Fool's Journey - 18 The Moon- Learning The Tarot

Fool's Journey Day 19

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 18 - The Moon

This side: The full Moon rises above the sea, its face masked, for its secrets are unknowable. Two towers form shimmer portal, windowless they seem to have no purpose other that to create a frame for the Moon.  Two dogs, red and white, symbols for passion/purity, instinct/intuition, moon gaze while drawn by the tidal pull, a crab rises to the ocean surface.

In a reading: Have you ever noticed that everything looks different in moonlight? Or maybe we just look at this differently in that silvery blue glow. The deep waters of the subconscious cannot be navigated by rational thought and your lunar awareness (intuition) is heightened now. Listen to your dreams and make a ritual in your life that places importance on sleep and the dream world. The Moon rules intuition and instinct because there are things you need to see, that can only be seen by moonlight.

That side: The Moon has put the sun in full eclipse here and the stars now seen show Cancer, the crab,  above. The back of the towers here are open, much like the Tower card, but here there are no bits of rubble or any sense of destruction. The imagination is able to flow freely here in this place of dreams and visions.

In a reading: This is a feminine energy place with feminine power, as the Moon's cycles reflect those of Women.  The woman here is the dark side of the High Priestess and she is offering a choice between a bowl of water and a glowing orphic egg. Which are you most drawn to and what does that tell you about your psyche?   Always remember there is no rational solar thinking here. The moonshadow has turned day to night.

The Fool's Journey - 17 The Star- Learning The Tarot

Fool's Journey Day 18

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 17 - The Star

This side: A lovely woman pours water in the starlight from two vessels. From silver she pours onto the Earth and from Gold she pours into the Universal Consciousness.  An 8 pointed star shines above, radiating cosmic energy. The 7 smaller stars are The Pleiades, sister stars that sing in harmony as an Egyptian Ibis flies away from his perch in the acacia trees (overcoming death/resurrection.)

In a reading: A card of hope even if you are in deepest despair. The stars will always be shining above, giving you light and hope. The ibis and acacia are signs of healing and overcoming. Renew your faith and trust - your destiny is written in those stars and remember, you are stardust.

That side:  The sky is filled with falling stars now and they announce the presence of the Cosmic Man, a life force born of desire. He is a symbol of Osiris, a god resurrected from the acacia tree and at his arrival, a red rose of passion grows in the water weeds.

In a reading: A breakthrough is on its way to you and it will be more powerful than you could dream of. Everything is coming into place and harmony is restored. Receive these blessings in thanks and remember when you heed the call of your highest self, you can expect such miracles.

The Fool's Journey - 16 The The Tower- Learning The Tarot

Fool's Journey Day 17

With The Vice Versa deck the original side is called This Side and the added side is called That Side. There is no good side or bad side or right side and reverse side. It simply another aspect of the card.

The next step on our journey is 16 - The Tower

This side: A bolt out of the blue hits the Tower and knocks the two people out of it. They thought it would be indestructible. Whatever illusions they held about their own power and permanence was wiped out with one bolt as they tumble to the waters below. A dove, the holy spirit, does assure them that they haven't been abandoned but they probably cannot hear that at the moment.

In a reading: No matter what you do, there is no way to prepare for a Tower Moment in life. You can prepare as best you can by looking for weaknesses in your own foundation. Where are you vulnerable and do you have the inner and outer resources to deal with it when it happens?  It is a very alarming card to get but it is also a great wake up call. You need to pay attention to what is happening here, no more denials. You need to deal with it.

That side: Here we see that The Tower was only a facade.  Notice that the Chariot's sphinxes are swimming away from the empty shell and the Chariot itself is crashed upon the rocks. Each of the sphinxes are going in different directions now because there is no will, powering them to drive in the same direction. A huge vanity mask hangs from the top of the Tower and from that pile of rubble grows one tiny green tree.

In a reading: That broken mask my seem familiar as it is the same one from behind the Hanged Man's gallows. How did the Sphinxes get there anyway? Now you need to look back over your life choices and the events past that led you to now.  Did you trust your own intuition? Or did you rush down the wrong roads not paying any attention to what was going on? Learn from you errors and move forward more carefully.
