Hi,

I have recently started an Art of Divination 5 week course and it's brilliant. I wanted to let you know about a useful exercise we learnt when learning to do a Tarot reading. We had to first look into the subject's eyes and note down what we instantly felt. Whilst the subject shuffled the deck of cards we had to imagine them in a canoe and then note the scenario we saw. Then we did a three card reading.

The results were amazing, the girl who read for me saw the exactly the same scenario she saw when visualising the canoe sequence repeated in the Arthurian Tarot deck.

Has anyone heard of any other useful visualisation exercises that help you to tune into your subject?

Would anyone be able to give me a reading focussing on career and love?

My name is Hilary, my D.O.B is 2.3.72.

I'd be interested in the format and technique because I'm still learning - so any advice would be welcome!

Many thanks

Giddy

Hi Giddy, you would find it very interesting to go to the tarot learn forum, as well as using the learn Tarot software.

Blessed be

Hi Payewacker,

Thankyou for that I've checked them out and they seem really useful.

Am working through the lessons they are going to be a big, big help!

Hi Hilary,

You have really asked for two readings there, did you realise that? Rarely is career linked to love.  If you would like to ask a more specific question then I would be glad to read for you on that, but for now I pulled one card for career and one for love



Career, You, The Moon,

The moon is one of the Major Arcana cards of the tarot, and so has significant importance here. The Moon shines down onto three figures, the maiden, the mother and the crone, standing by the water's edge, half of the card is in shadow and half is in light. There is a wolf howling at the moon and a crab climbing out of the water.
The Moon is a card of duplicity, two sides can be seen, one bright and full of hope and one considerably darker and more shadowy. By the light of the Moon things have an eery quality, a magical feel and illusions abound. Sometimes we think thay we are seeing the truth whereas in daylight things look very different and we can easily see that figures and images  were just funnily shaped rocks or trees and that there is really nothing to worry about.
Having The Moon as your career card makes me wonder if you are thinking of changing your job or path? Perhaps things have not turned out how you wanted? Perhaps you have been misled or misinformed and are not happy at work anymore? Perhaps people are not as true friends as first thought?  The three figures can signify the growing or aging of man, the maiden is full of life and raring to go, the mother, begins to worry about those she cares for and then the crone. The older and wiser woman that knows what she wants and knows how to manipulate things so that she is safe and happy. You are the figure in the middle, anxious to grow, feeling trapped and underused, perhaps slightly misunderstood too?
Step back and wait till the sun rises and then things will become much clearer

Love, You, The High Priestess.
Another Major Arcana card, and a very powerful one to have for your love life. The High Priestess sits on her throne at peace, silent and serene. She carries a book of wisdom with her wherever she goes, she has learnt from many experiences and helped many others on their way. She has a dog as her companion, faithful and quiet until needed, always with her somewhere, perhaps in the background you have someone special watching over you? Someone that you tend to ignore and don't bring into your life much but just know that he is there? The High Priestess holds secrets to the past inside her, and will use these to create a happy present and so lead to a prosperous future. When we realise that every act that we make, every step that we take changes out future we start to realise some of the answers that we hold inside. We have the power to make things how we want. No-one is ever given a dream without the power to fulfil it and to enjoy striving towards it. Perhaps you already know what it is you want? Perhaps you are at a crossroads, a change of direction is available but you are unsure how to proceed? You need to look deep inside yourself and decide what your goals and dreams are and then work towards them step by tiny step and before you know it you will be there in the new future you have created.

Hope you have enjoyed your reading, I would love to receive any feedback or comments,

thanks

Meg
