This month on ChaiBLISS Healing I invited you to answer .. 'Which Oracle Cards are you drawn to for the next free monthly BlissHEALING Angel Guidance Reading? The results were CLOSE, with the winning deck being 'the Girlfriends' ... The Goddess Guidance Oracle Deck.
For the last few weeks of the month of May though, I had become fascinated with ELVES! The back garden at ChaiBLISS Studios had always been, to me, an Elf Zone, and alot of energy was occuring in this area. I looked up some facts about Elves and have this to share:
:: Elves like to be near water.
:: Elves like privacy.
:: They are tall and thin
:: Elves are vegetarian.
:: They are the keepers of wisdom & love history.
:: They are the unicorn caretakers.
:: When an Elf wears a feather on the right side of their hat it means they have free reign of the forest.
:: Elves like oranges and apples.
:: Elves like to trade.
:: They also like skewers of fruit & veg and like to gnaw on the wood afterwards (especially bamboo).
:: Elves LOVE bamboo. If you have bamboo in your garden, there will be elves!
[thankyou Christopher Valentine]
With all this in mind, I decided to go with the deck that is linked closely to the Elves.. the other loving Elementals, the Fairies.
The twist is that I used BOTH decks side by side for a DOUBLE WHAMMY READING !! The first time here at ChaiBLISS Healing!
We have also been 'off with the Fairies' here too ... each day I have been Guided to add a little gift for the Fey at their house. Some fresh, home-grown tiny daisies; some crystals; some organic sugar crystals that 'accidentally' spilt {offered by my eldest son}; some raw chai as I was blending today was also offered (they love seeds too) & a potted about-to-flower zygo cactus.
A coincidental thing is that I have only just recently moved this 'house' from the back yard (the Elves Realm) to the front again. This is when the Elf fascination started.
Other things I had recently changed in the back yard are bird baths (with water!) Yes, there is bamboo in the borders of the veggie patch. It is a very secluded part of the garden and is very private and also offers the rest of the building extra privacy! I love unicorns! I am vegan! Am tall and thin! .. AND last xmas it so happened that the gas ran out inside on the stove/oven so we ended up happily outside at the fire pit roasting our VEGGIE SKEWERS! .. are we a house of Elves ?
Either way :) I look forward to reading the double oracle layout for June. This month is reported as being a little easier than the last energy wise .. a reset after the eclipse season. And oh boy, didn't we manifest then!
SUMMER :: EVERYTHING THAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR BECOMES YOURS IN THE SUMMERTIME :: In this image a bright young fairy girl is blowing a kiss that turns in to pure light. The message for this card is that our words become our lives. What we speak about, comes about. For some this looks also for an indication regarding romance. Summer is bright, the days are long and the message also relates to creating this 'energy' within our daily lives. Create brightness and focus upon what you are attending to during the day. Spend time amongst the realm of the Fairies when you are manifesting.
OSTARA :: FERTILITY :: 'IT IS THE PERFECT TIME FOR YOU TO START NEW PROJECTS, ACCESS NEW IDEAS AND GIVE BIRTH TO NEW CONDITIONS.'
The Goddess Ostara is also outdoors in nature. She shows the cycles of the moon and indicates that this month is a perfect time to harmonise with the moon's signs and phases. This new moon around the 9th is showing up to be a powerful time to choose. New beginnings happen within. They are personal and having said that, can affect those around you. The current situation shows that this time is creating our future.. with the loving help of the Fairies and the Deities of old.
CARD TWO = THE QUESTION
VEGETARIAN :: A NEW WAY OF EATING GIVES YOU MORE ENERGY, GREATER HEALTH, CLARITY AND STRONGER MANIFESTATION ABILITIES.
Have YOU been getting gut feelings, guidance and intuitive nudges regarding your diet? The Angels have long showed that the increase of gluten and dairy insensitivities are due to the human insensitivities of continuing on an omnivorous diet. They say that you can eat more wheat if you stay away from meat. The dairy industry is proving to be more and more murderous as the years go on. Choosing a vegan organic lifestyle ensures great health, karma free living and a sustainable future for the whole planet.
COVENTINA :: PURIFICATION :: 'IT IS TIME FOR A CLEANSING DETOXIFICATION OF YOUR BODY AND MIND."
This image is one of ascension. The rainbow, the ocean, the white bird, the 'cuppeth runneth over'. When we are pure of mind and spirit, there are endless opportunities. These cards compliment each other oh so well. Call upon Coventina to assist in these divinely guided changes. She is a celtic deity of waterways. When you visit a natural body of water, commune with her. Offer her a little leaf boat in which to float away any obstacles to your new found health and energy. When you drink water, affirm that you are in perfect and divine health in all ways.
CARD THREE = THE DESTINY
BUSINESS VENTURE :: TRUST AND FOLLOW THROUGH ON A NEW BUSINESS IDEA OR CAREER OPPORTUNITIES.
In Doreen Virtue's 12 card reading for 2013, this month's card is from the Angel Tarot ... the Major Arcana card, the MAGICIAN with Archangel Raziel. The message is YOU ARE READY. All my recent Angel Intuitive Readings have indicated that THIS IS THE MONTH to go for it. We all have a talent, a unique flair that is connected with love. Using this, we move forward individually and also as a large collective group. Trust.
APHRODITE :: INNER GODDESS :: 'AWAKEN THE GODDESS WITHIN YOU THROUGH DANCE, SELF-CARE AND APPRECIATING YOUR DIVINITY.'
This harkens back to the energy we were experiencing the weekend of the 24-26 of May. The Goddess message relating to the Fairy message shows that with love we can move forward successfully. When we treat our bodies as the temples they are, all is possible. It gives power to the physical once we have aligned our thoughts with love. Another white bird (dove) is indicated. Purity shall soar over all else. Those who begin their endeavours and offer renewed growth shall triumph over existing 'old ways' bus'y'ness.
CARD FOUR = THE PAST 18 MONTHS
AUTUMN :: IN THE FALL SEASON, EVERYTHING COMES TOGETHER AND YOU REAP WONDERFUL HARVESTS OF ABUNDANCE.
The Fairies LOVE the seasons and anything and everything natural and seasonal. As we are reading for a world wide audience, the timing can be taken personally or generally. (as with summer too) The card image shows an elf boy chatting with fairies and deities. It is a common unity (community) of light workers. When we think back about our past experiences and insights, we realise that we are in constant communion with all things at all times. How many times have you had de-ja-vu or been aware enough to relive a situation you could grow from. Every insight, every action has been a building block in who we are. Worth celebrating!
EIREEN :: PEACE :: 'THERE IS NO NEED TO WORRY, AS EVERYTHING IS WORKING OUT BEAUTIFULLY.'
A tranquil and beautiful card! Such a loving, serene one is Eireen as she holds the child and the symbol for physical abundance, the cornucopia. She stands before a vivid blue sea.. giver of life. Life does renew and replenish. It is the way of nature. Hindsight is our ally and this month it reminds us that it usually 'works out in the end' .. as they said in 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel', it usually works out in the end. If it hasn't worked out, it isn't the end! This is interesting, the Roman's name for Eireen is PAX which means PEACE. Nice.
CARD FIVE = THE PRESENT
ASSERTIVENESS :: STAND UP FOR YOUR BELIEFS, AND ONLY SAY YES IF YOU REALLY WANT TO.
This could well be my favourite image of the reading! Such light and depth. The old growth forest and her powerful deities. I have recently enjoyed listening to Doreen Virtue's podcast, Stand In Your Power, and look forward to her new books about Archangel Gabrielle (the communication Archangel) and Assertiveness for Earth Angels. Assertiveness is an energy of love. It shows your truth and allows it to simply be heard and understood. If you feel like a 'recharge' boost, head to the trees.
DIANA :: FOCUSED INTENTION :: 'KEEP YOUR UNWAVERING THOUGHTS, FEELINGS AND ACTIONS FOCUSED ON YOUR TARGET, AND YOU WILL MAKE YOUR MARK.'
Another moon connection, honouring cycles and timing. This card and placement really reinforces the Fairy's message. When we come from love, are assertive and action orientated.. our focus is achieved. A positive confirmation for the previous cards relating to romance, business ventures and dietary success.
CARD SIX = THE FUTURE 18 MONTHS
HEALING, HEALED, HEALER :: HEALING ENERGY SURROUNDS YOU AND THIS SITUATION.
We have recently just been through an Eclipse period. The last of which is the beginning of a new phase lasting over a thousand years. This card reminds us that the human body is a regenerative being. Healing is going to be the outcome and the theme for the future. We will naturally deflect ill-health and recover quickly as our vibrations continue to ascend with love.
ATHENA :: INNER WISDOM :: 'YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO. TRUST YOUR INNER WISDOM, AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION WITHOUT DELAY.'
I have long resonated with Athena and her owl xox This card is a reminder that all is known. Not necessarily all at once, but it is all known, all available. It is a wonderful excercise to visit the Akashic Records regularly. For those of you who may be unfamiliar, this is a place where all information is stored and recorded. It is eternal and in itself has healing properties. The nature of love is to heal, inform and expand.
CARD SEVEN = HOW WE SEE OURSELVES
EASY DOES IT :: STOP TRYING SO HARD TO CONTROL EVERYTHING AND ALL THE DOORS WILL OPEN FOR YOU.
It's true, we do see ourselves this way more and more. Ourselves that have 'handed it over'. Ourselves that have 'given it to God.' Ourselves that are finally realising that a relaxed human is a healthy human!
GUINEVERE :: TRUE LOVE :: 'THE ROMANTIC STIRRINGS IN YOUR HEART HAVE PROPELLED THE UNIVERSE TO DELIVER GREAT LOVE TO YOU.'
So this IS about the first card! True love is THE most magnificent energy available. In enables, it encourages, it empowers. We see ourselves as BEING this true love... of being capable of offering it too. When we receive we grow and are able to assist the planet more. When we see ourselves in this light, it naturally is attracted our way. When we combine this message with 'easy does it', we can rest assured that once we have 'placed the order', the universe will provide.
CARD EIGHT = THE ENVIRONMENT PRESENTED
SPIRITUAL TEACHING :: YOUR LIFE PURPOSE INVOLVES TEACHING OTHERS ABOUT HEALING AND SPIRITUALITY.
I have been working with many of you over a few years with mini card readings on the Facebook page, and I can see with all the Angel Therapy you have received along the way, that your auras are bright, you have made positive changes and are empowering others as you do so. Remember that we are all individually connected and all individually unique. This is the theme of spiritual teaching. To connect with the unity and to apply it individually. How we work with one another is also coming up. Our interactions are exactly the opportunity we have in the moment to apply our spiritual teaching... love is the answer to any question.
NEMETONA :: SACRED SPACE :: 'CREATE AN ALTAR OR VISIT A POWER PLACE TO CONNECT WITH THE DIVINE.'
Nemetona is a Celtic Deity who protects sacred groves. She is DEFINITELY aligned with the Elves! She offers the protection of our homes through the use of candles. Enjoy open eye candle meditations regularly to align with this sacred energy. The sacred is necessary in society. Greenspaces, heart-to-heart conversations, looking up to see the cloud formations, noticing signs, honouring beauty. These practices all bring about spiritual teaching by example. When the hundredth monkey level is reached, it simply becomes 'normal' and mainstream, available for all. So shine your light, connect to the sacred, and share it assertively. We will be mirroring each other's stunning growth xox
CARD NINE = HOPES AND DREAMS
CHILDREN :: YOUR CONNECTION WITH CHILDREN IS PART OF YOUR LIFE'S PURPOSE.
This little girl depicted in the image is so sure of herself, so confident of who she is! An expansive pose and a great attitude! This is us! Deep within us, we are there, living. We may have car keys, we may stay in fancy hotel rooms.. we ARE the children. We are the children of love because we CHOOSE it to be so. We admire potential. We are well springs of it. In truth. Lets look at our dreams and wishes this month with new eyes. Are they relevant, have we moved on, are they just waiting. Our dreams and inner hopes evolve as we do over time, with time. Some ideas are happily outdated, others can easily be reignited. Use your spiritual toolbox to tune in to your inner truth and see what is growing within.
ISHTAR :: BOUNDARIES :: 'LOVE YOURSELF ENOUGH TO SAY NO TO OTHERS' DEMANDS ON YOUR TIME AND ENERGY.'
It is important to know that boundaries are movable. What was relevant once may not be any more. Our inner compass keeps up though and will let us know what is ok and what isn't. We receive signs CONSTANTLY reinforcing our path and our 'way'. Simply aligning will do the trick. We have no need of constant questioning. A few deep breaths, a glass of water and a 'reconnect' will always ensure our own boundaries are healthy and in place.
CARD TEN = THE OUTCOME
DO SOME RESEARCH :: YOU NEED MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS SITUATION. LOOK INTO IT FURTHER BEFORE PROCEEDING.
I like it when we are prompted to learn more. It fully honours the process of life. For we are always learning in all ways. This is like a permission slip to go and investigate your heart's desires. Is it a romantic relationship; ask this person more about themselves.. get to know each other more. Is it about your passion for your innovative product; research the market a little more.. find your niche. Could it be a new healing modality you are coining; do a breakdown of the key points and look into registering a business name.. we will all benefit! Continue to 'go off with the fairies' and you will find new ideas, new answers and feel revitalised when you do.
MAAT :: FAIRNESS :: 'THIS SITUATION WILL BE HANDLED IN A FAIR AND JUST MANNER.'
Just as Maat is an Ancient Egyptian Goddess, so too is the wisdom ancient that intrinsically KNOWS your fair and righteous actions and paths. This is a card of faith and purity. White doves feature in this image. A theme of our joint card reading. Over all the millenniums, and over all the lifetimes, with all the thoughts and actions... everything is divinely organised and aligned. Phew, right!
FINE TUNING CARDS
CARD ELEVEN
SON :: YOUR SON IS WATCHED OVER AND PROTECTED AS HE EXPLORES HIS WORLD.
This month we are subtly assisting the men of the world. As the Earth stands in her power and the feminine energy returns, the men and boys are looking to the women and girls to guide them through. There is an ancient American Indian saying, 'It is the sacred job of the woman to heal and teach the man. First she must heal and learn herself, then she can heal and teach the man. If she misses out on stage one, we are two down.' Women are subtly more attuned emotionally to men. It is a physiological plan to do with carrying children, menstruating etc. The men and boys have been ascending exponentially over the recent decades, and this little push of support will find us on a much more even scale. A welcome one.
SULIS :: BODIES OF WATER :: 'SPEND TIME NEAR WATER, SUCH AS A LAKE, RIVER OR THE OCEAN, TO RECHARGE YOUR BATTERIES.'
This could well be the predominant card of the reading. Water is a healing healing energy! When we drink it, it hydrates our cells enabling perfect performance and transportation. It hydrates our brain so that when the ideas occur, the little lights can come on. Bodies of water (yes, favoured by our friends, the Elves) are full of negative ions which calm our auric fields and rejuvenate our spirit. Our male friends will benefit immensely with baths, surfing, water filters, journeys ...
CARD TWELVE
ASK FOR WHAT YOU WANT :: LET THE UNIVERSE AND OTHER PEOPLE KNOW WHAT YOU NEED.
Perfect fine tuning card once again! This correlates with the whole theme of the reading. Assertiveness, healing, honesty. Focus! Fine tuning what we thought we liked into what we like now. Trusting the higher power to respond to our thoughts and ideas. Once we set our intentions the universe conspires to make it happen :)
DANA :: HIGH PRIESTESS :: 'YOU HAVE DIVINE KNOWLEDGE THAT CAN HELP OTHERS THROUGH YOUR SPIRITUAL TEACHING.'
This goes for men and women, as there are High Priests as well. This term simply describes a Spiritual Teacher who honours both the physical (Goddess) and the loving thought processes (God) that allow these to occur. It is an honouring of the cycles of life, of love and of choice. High Priests and Priestesses honour the TRUTH above all else. This is an ancient term, and a modern necessity and reality. Awakening our inner High Priest/ess is what we are all about.
UNDERLYING ENERGY
CARD THIRTEEN
PREGNANCY :: THE BIRTH OF A CHILD BRINGS GREAT BLESSINGS TO YOU AND THE WORLD.
Yes, this can mean an actual pregnancy.. it also refers to YOU. Your pregnancy, your conception.. how you began in this incarnation.. in ALL incarnations. This ofcourse also refers to all the new business ventures we are nurturing, the new spiritual integrity we are embracing, the new relationships and the new studies we are embarking on. The underlying energy though does hark back to our beginningness .. our first learned ways of being. How we learned back then might affect how we are interacting today. Love heals all.
BAST :: INDEPENDENT :: 'YOUR INDEPENDENCE IS A FOUNDATION FOR YOUR STRENGTH AND SUCCESS.'
This card was floating around alot while I was shuffling the decks. It was always going to be a part of this month's reading! It reminds us of how we act when we are 'on our own'. Are we in integrity. This is aligning this month with love as the basis. The image of Bast on the card shows many seemingly identical golden leaves surrounding her. Her eyes are almost out of focus as they tune in to a higher source. Each of us is represented in both ideals here. At once a leaf, with their own patterns upon the world, upon the universe... and the focused individual, almost oblivious to the throng of similar in society. We are the ones we have been waiting for. We transform, we shift, we grow, we rest... we KNOW.
I am thrilled with the effects of the combined reading! Very thorough with cohesive themes from all bases. I really resonate with the open eye candle meditation as 'home work' for us all this month. Day or night, a candle is a luxury most of us can afford! (a quote from an old friend)
With loving infinite Angel Blessings of Bliss
