Universal Reading April 20 2010
Wow this one is really interesting. What struck me immediately as I was laying down the cards was the predominance of the grey cards in this spread. Grey cards are all about overcoming duality in the form of judgement. I am just buzzzing with excitement this is huge!!!!!!
One step at a time.....
Looking at the 3 base cards, that seem to be the foundation of the spread. We have Renewal (white card) Avoidance ( grey ) and Closure ( grey). What comes to mind here is that we as a collective consciousness are presently experiencing a massive cleansing around our judgement issues.
The point of focus is around releasing the energy associated with the judgements that hold us bound to living in a cage of limitation. The cage is constructed by dualistic thinking and the fear associated with living purely in the mind. The image says it all really look at that cute little birdie sitting in that cage. Imagine yourself being the bird and all your this is good this is bad, I am good you are bad, this is right that is wrong thinking being the cage. Then imagine the enormity of this when we are all as a collective doing this.....
The beautiful thing is that we as a reflection of the collective can really make a huge difference here by dropping this way of being and moving forward with the inherent knowing that it all just is! Not good not bad just as it should be for evolution learning and the development of faith in how amazing this experience called life actually is. As we will see further along in the reading this chapter seems to be closing and the bars of the cage are disappearing...If we choose to do the work on our minds and ways of thinking I guess.
So moving right along the three columns appear to symbolise the extremities of duality and of course the centre path. I am not going to individually interpret each individual card here. If you own the deck you can read up on the cards in the book. For this purpose here I will give a general over view.
So the Water angel (orange) is present to assist us in healing the emotional wounding that has built the structure of our judgemental state. This is intended to help us make peace ( white ) with ourselves and to put an end to the behaviour associated with seeking external approval ( grey ). What this ultimately means is that we must turn are attention now to complete self acceptance and the removal of self criticism.... Remember our judgement and criticism of others is only as harsh and damning as is our own. If we drop that we are also in the running for far healthier external relationships and of course the deepening of unity and oneness.
In confronting this we have the power to set our selves free. See the confrontation card (grey ) with the birdie now out of the cage and flying freely towards the great mirror of self reflection and contemplation. The act of working on self approval and acceptance will bring with it liberation ( blue ) , the freedom to dance to our own rhythm and to express our selves in the truth of we are. Of course this type of fundamental change in the collective psyche is going to bring great change and upheaval to the construct that is founded on us all feeling not good enough and somehow flawed....Hey hey folks! we are rising up and embracing the freedom to be who we inherently are. This is going to change our lives in the physical considerably and bring chaos ( red) as the structures of what we are living changes to come into greater alignment with this new way of being. So be mindful to do grounding work, be in tune with nature and trust that all of your needs will be taken care of....Fear seems to be really seductive here...See it for what it is.
Now heres the crux of it. The part of us that benefits the most out of dualistic, judgemental living is of course the ego ( yellow ). Letting go of judging is a sure fire way of letting go of the destructive ego. We are being supported with this work so that we can change our lives from being ego driven to being guided by our true selves. ( gold self card ). In doing this work we can come more into alignment with our inner most divinity and use our creativity (blue) to create a world that supports and honours the divinity of all living beings.
Sitting right at the top of all this is the orange key to balance and what this tells me is that we are accomplishing this work. The universal energies are all right in place for us to transcend our wounding, to release the pain of the past and to bring balance through observation and experience of our emotions in the moment rather than judging and suppressing them to become even more emotional baggage and fodder for more self criticism.
This work is the real deal folks...taking us into very deep places. Such profound healing is taking place. If I were to offer any advice it would have to be to not be afraid of what you feel, don’t judge it watch it and let it go. Love yourself, honour yourself and point blank refuse to entertain the negative self speak that is your inner critic. Watch it and let it go but don’t believe it. IT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE!!! You are so much more...dare to discover your divine beautiful true self and be a constructive healing force in the entire universe.
