This is the vibrant Archangel Power Tarot Cards deck. Some of you have already experienced them and received your own individual Reading and image via Facebook when they first arrived. I'd like to continue with that theme and add the individual image to each card placement.
As you may know, I read the Tarot a little differently to others. I am self taught and through many differing styles the Celtic Cross Layout really resonates the most with me. It is different however to what is in some books, and even in the guidebook for this actual deck. I am confident with my Angelic Guidance and continue with this format/layout AND also choose another card every time a Major Arcana is drawn.
The journey of the Major Arcana is that of the Dreamer and each of our Spiritual Stations along the train tracks of life. They are common themes that we experience on a unique and individual level. (like we all have Mondays, Tuesdays etc)
I also add the 11, 12 & 13 cards. These help again to FINE TUNE the often generic themes we encounter with the Tarot (a little like exploring your personal Houses instead of just the generic Sun Signs in Astrology)
Deep breath... here goes ...
CARD ONE = THE CURRENT SITUATION
STRENGTH [11] ~ (MAJOR ARCANA) ARCHANGEL ARIEL
This card speaks to us about gaining physical strength in the Earthly Realm. By working with the Angels, who know us inside and out, we are Guided for our perfect conditions.
The number 11 also refers to going through to the next level and this can be enhanced by joining forces and trusting others going through the same process. Relationships offer so much energetic support and care.
Work together this month and offer your unique insights.
(FINE TUNING CARD) PAGE of GABRIEL
The Archangel Gabriel/Gabrielle represents the Element of Fire in this deck. Fire in the tarot is all about passion, action and creativity. It is a doing card.
Pages mostly represent those under the age of 22 in traditional tarot. So could it be that you are following through on something you thought up when you were younger. Or is it that you can band together with the younger folk in your life. You could be assisting them, and they can be assisting you..
A you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours kind of opportunity.
When we read these two cards together, it really reinforces the working together theme and the strength that goes with it.
CARD TWO = THE QUERY
THREE of RAPHAEL
As this card represents any questions we may have this month, and Archangel Raphael represents the realm of the emotions, we are able to read this card for our current conditions (in other placements it will mean something different).
Three is a number of expansion & growth. So the question really pertains to out emotional growth at this time.
Are we ok to rest on our laurels a little over the holidays? Or do we utilise this more intense time to hone our spiritual skills garnered over the year? Either way, growth will ensue so focus upon your own inner emotional clarity and all will sort itself out.
CARD THREE = THE DESTINY
SEVEN of ARIEL
Here she is again! She really is the Archangel of the Month.
This card relates to Earthly things ... finances, gardens, sustenance, shelter.
Archangel Ariel is the Archangel of Nature. Her message is to get outdoors as often as possible to work with the elements of nature to help you manifest your Earthly requirements.
The number seven is a very spiritual number so this card resonates with Earth & Spirit, combining and harmonising together. *Physical Manifestation from Spiritual Support. Looking at all those flowers in the image, the large crystal and the co-author of the Flower Therapy book and oracle deck... this is a very Fairy themed Destiny!
CARD FOUR = THE PAST
THE MAGICIAN [1] ~ (MAJOR ARCANA) ARCHANGEL RAZIEL
Here we find our Dreamer has moved forward in his evolutionary ascension path.
The Magician discovers the tools of manifestation; aligns his chakras; focuses on gratitude and honour his Spiritual Toolbox.
This card represents our past, so it is good to see we have made progress with a wholistic flair.
KING of ARIEL
The Realm of Earth.
This card and the Magician merge to represent our yang qualities. What we can do with our gifts. What we can offer others.
The number [1] of the Magician implies that we must first gain our own power by rediscovering our divinity and then we may move out and help others like a good King of the Earth.
This may also represent some father healing.
Ultimately the energy is of doing and caring.
CARD FIVE = THE PRESENT
THE EMPRESS [3] ~ (MAJOR ARCANA) ARCHANGEL GABRIEL
We are definitely moving through some major themes together.
The Empress with Archangel Gabriel and the number 3 honours GROWTH, EXPANSION and our ACTIONS (fire).
The Empress honours her Spirituality and all else falls in to place. She is the feminine counterpart to the Emperor and some fiery energy could be relevant when she is around. The Divine Spark gives insight into all that is to be revealed. Call upon the archetype of the Empress and Archangel Gabriel when you are creating, communicating and connecting.
TWO of ARIEL
A steady, Earthy, Ariel energy with this card.
As Lightworkers and Earth Angels we are often 'ahead of our time'. This card reminds us of our Guardian Angels and their constant companionship. As we tread the Earth, they whisper in our ears along the way.
This card feels like a 'stop and smell the roses' kind of opportunity. Our actions affect the whole and at this time of the year the whole world seems to speed up. Slowing down, going within and creating your own timing seems perfectomundo!
CARD SIX = THE FUTURE
SEVEN of RAPHAEL
Ahhh,,, emotions and spirituality. One of the most emotive cards of the tarot. Go with the flow. Feel the feelings. Act accordingly with spiritual awareness. Do you feel the fine tuning taking place on a very personal level. We have raised our vibrations, moved upward in ascension and the opportunity to smooth over those funny little traits we may have acquired along the way is with us. Water is going to play a part in our futures. Drinking it, bathing, fresh fresh feelings. In ancient spiritual cultures, water always plays a part in cleansing, calibrating and clearing. Just being near a body of water will prove very soothing.
CARD SEVEN = HOW WE SEE OURSELVES
SEVEN of MICHAEL
Awwwh! This card in this placement makes me very happy for us all as a group! It is the first Air Element card of the Reading .. representing our thoughts. This card pretty much says 'I see myself as a spiritual being with Archangel Michael by my side.' So great!!
I have included the images (because I can) and so you can see that reading the tarot is a very intuitive thing. It is NOT about reading what is on the card each and every time. It IS about looking at the images. Looking at the messages offered and seeing how it fits in each different situation. A very individual process.
When I first began discovering tarot, I read every book I could possibly find. I learned the basics so well that I can now read even a deck of normal playing cards. The images are relevant sometimes.. there is always something wholistic about reading any cards. Sounds you hear while reading, feelings you get, songs, scents ... all go in to the Reading. Working with the Angels ensures that you are getting messages from a loving source. From a source of kindness, empathy and understanding. It is always a unifying experience that honours the known, unknown and what is to be created.
CARD EIGHT = THE ENVIRONMENT PRESENTED
EIGHT of ARIEL
Just like Astrology with predominant planets affecting one's chart, so too do tarot layouts have predominant themes. This Reading is most definitely being Guided by Archangel Ariel and the Element of Earth. The fact that she appears again in our Environment placement really enforces her presence in the Reading.
The number 8 is super special. It can relate to finances (strengthened in the Element of Earth) and also Unconditional Love. That loving Source Energy we are all here to emulate while on this home planet. This is a Heaven on Earth kind of energy we are dealing with here. We may be asked to create this energy further or we may be being offered this energy... probably BOTH!
CARD NINE = OUR HOPES & DREAMS
KING of GABRIEL
Our second King of the Reading, this time the Element of Fire. Do we really believe in a Heavenly Father? Are we still under the rule of a patriarchal society AND religion.
Spirituality is about the All. I sense we are completely ready for the real truth. I predict that many will openly share their insights to a greater audience and it will be very very healing. Patriarchal society is on it's last legs. Just like a cockroach when the light is suddenly flicked on.. they scatter and hide. The immense amount of truth, loving light that has expanded on planet earth in the recent decades is the switch, and patriarchy is blatantly and obviously 'stuffing up' all around the planet in an effort to be noticed. In reality, it is leaving the planet to be replaced by loving masculine energy that has always been here.
It is the kind, funny man. The nurturing, protective, honest government. It is the community spirit that honours diversity, integrity and doing good in life. Our hopes and dreams are in a good place!
CARD TEN = THE OUTCOME
THE HIGH PRIESTESS [2] ~ (MAJOR ARCANA) ARCHANGEL HANIEL
So, how do we achieve this Heaven on Earth energy?
With BALANCE.
Here the High Priestess steps up to show the way. She shows how an honest integrity allows for all to align effortlessly. There are no order of difficulty with miracles. Love heals all. When we honour our own inner High Priestess by connecting with the movement of the seasons, the planets and eat healthful foods and think loving thoughts, we enable others to do the same.
We are all changing. Honouring the Divinity within all things. (Do you recognise this High Priestess... relentlessly speaking her truth in a constant and loving manner.. thankyou!)
FOUR of ARIEL
A very steady number 4 energy teamed with Earthly stability are the outcome for this Reading and this year as a whole.
We have learned so much this year. Really! Congratulate yourselves for the amazing and diverse intensity we put our hands up for.
This card honours the strength and stability we have made as a foundation for ourselves and our loved ones. We have cleared. We have re-established boundaries. We have created an equal and balanced platform for the next phase.
Bring on 2014!
CARD 11 = FINE TUNING CARD #1
FIVE of RAPHAEL
This card is one of Emotional Healing.
It reminds us that others may not be at our level and that we can offer emotional support. It reminds us that we may require some emotional support moving forward.
It is a process card. A card of movement, of change, of grace.
Calling upon Archangel Raphael before sleep is a wonderful habit to get in to. His healing energy works all the way through to the physical level, healing the emotions that started the ailments in the first place. Archangel Raphael's energy also assists with relationships and romance. He can also clear obstacles for future travel and aligns you with helping Earth Angels along the way. Yes please!
CARD 12 = FINE TUNING CARD #2
SIX of MICHAEL
Rounding off an ultimately very wholistic Reading with the Air Element.. our thoughts. Six in tarot represents our home, our creativity and nurturing and sustenance. So ultimately this fine tuning card shows that we are thinking of these things. Working from home and having a nurturing environment to rest and play are paramount as we look to begin a new year in a new paradigm. Working with Archangel Michael constantly is already established. (YAY)
The card itself reads '.. the light at the end of the tunnel.' So double yay! A nice celebratory end to the month and the year. A year well-done!
CARD 13 = THE UNDERLYING ENERGY
SIX OF ARIEL
Hahaha, we get it! Archangel Ariel is EVERYWHERE this month. Her loving Earthly Energy is reinforced in the home and our creativity. This is a super nurturing card. It's actually even very 'xmas' ... 'Giving or receiving with a grateful heart.' Angel Santa ;)
Look at heart felt homemade offerings this year. Potted herbs. Organic fabrics. Organic food. Simple. Clean and 'of the Earth' sustenance.
... and maybe a K.I.S.S for NYE. (Keep It Simple Sweety ;)
What a fun ending!
Thanks for your supportive comments through out the year.
Enjoy your Solstice in your hemisphere.
Om Shanti
