• Reality Check for namere

  namere

  There are three columns to this Tarot spread:  challenges and/or obstacles on the left; resources and/or benefits on the right; realities, things that currently are, down the middle.  Levels, from the top down, are spiritual/creative, mental/emotional, and physical/material, with a tenth card at the base giving an overview of this slice of your life.  Except for one card, the only major trump that came up in this reading, I will synthesize the rest and write only my interpretations, not each individual card and position.

  In your physical, material life now, in matters of health, finances, domestic arrangements and/or employment, you’re hovering, hesitating to bring one phase to an end and make a change.  I think you know it is necessary, and it is all but done, yet some doubt or denial, or a few loose ends, are keeping you from making the final decisive move.

  There are some emotional strains and unhappiness for you now involving the absence or loss of a beloved young person of mercurial character with a love of winning and glory, generous with everything, right down to the blood in his veins.

  You have also lost a benefactor and caretaker, someone who anchored and supported you.  You remain in somewhat of an emotional crisis, but the worst of it is past.

  Your emotions are beginning to heal, leaving you in the depth of a spiritual crisis, with doubts and questions that nobody, nothing in your life experience or the world around you, can resolve for you.  You have hit upon an idea, a thought, of someone else’s recorded or encoded ideas, that you think will elevate your spirit and bring you peace, but it is a spiritual detour that can lead only to a dead end for you, a road better not taken.

  The base card in this spread, the overview of your current reality, is The Way Shower, also known as The Star in older symbolism.

   

  It says that ultimately your choices are up to you, and your most reliable guidance comes from within, from your own spiritual resources, symbolized on the card as the white light shining from above.  Gold symbolizes truth, and a massive amount of it flows down one side, the left, inner, unconscious side.  On the right, the conscious, outer, reality, is a city, symbolizing society, culture, the world around you.  The cup of gold over the city symbolizes each person’s individual “truth” which all are willing to share (as indicated by the upturned position and full flow of colors from the cup).

  Those colors include some gold, but the truth you get from others is not the whole truth and nothing but.  It is always filtered through the awareness and experience of the one sharing his or her truth, flavored with their bias and distorted by their misconceptions.  Your primary need is to tap into your own Spirit, listen to your Spirit Guides, and make your own way.

  You have mastered the masculine, active, expressive, aspect of creative inspiration.  Now your challenge is to realize the receptive, feminine side of Spirit.  Meditation is one way.  I know another that many people find to be easier than traditional Eastern meditation:  The Shamanic Path.

  Let me know if I may be of any further service to you.
