In today class we mainly were doing the I am One Who… exercise, and What I Have to Say To Your Question is… exercise. We gathered in few groups and started with card readings.
Card readings are never done by a third party, but always by the creator of the cards and answering a question about their own life.
A question is formulated and then a number of cards (typically four: one from each suit) are drawn. In this way, a person taps into their inner wisdom (rather than, say, magic) to address their question.
There are also three Transpersonal cards, which are not read from (are not chosen in readings), but which are displayed during readings as reminders of Divine Mystery.
These cards are the Source (Divine Spirit), SoulEssence (corresponding to what many would call the soul) and Witness (one's own "stepped-back" consciousness).
Here are some basic elements to apply when consulting your cards.
- How you ask your question is important. It should be open-ended, not one easily answered by “yes” or “no”. It should be a question that matters to you and be in writing.
- Draw four cards and leave them face down. One at a time, turn each one over. The cards often offer a synchronicity between their images and the question you have asked in that point in time.
- The four cards each offer four perspectives on the question. Each Neter on the cards speaks (using the I Am One Who… exercise, and then What I have to say to your question is… ).
- Then, reflecting on the four cards together as a pattern can often reveal a holistic perspective that provides intuitive guidance related to your question.
Thus, we do not have much photos today as all of us were recording our own reading about our own cards.
Today I read a certain card that indeed is the weakest point of my life. I know that the influences that have made the entire of my life. Reading the card made me feel a little bit release the sadness and sorrow of my inner self.
I am still not really feel ease and I feel that it does not necessary can heal the wounds that had been made. At that moment, the first thought that came into my mind was the picture of the Savior. Yes, Jesus Christ can heal my wound…
