Bodhiseed Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago Thank you Fire cat! I'm in this week with the Tarot of the Orishas paired with Diloggun Cards. I think the Tarot de la Rea is beautiful! Your perspective will either become your prison or your passport. —Steven Furtick Ochosi is the Orisha of the hunt, forests and animals, yet he is also known as a believer of impartial justice and equality. He has a little chuckle at us today, because we've constructed a prison for ourselves made of our own thoughts. Ochosi says, "You stand and look in one direction, seeking resources or a solution to your problem. Can you not look to the left, the right and behind you, realizing there are many other options?" The proverb for Edi (Seven Mouths) reads: "Always being in a hurry does not prevent death, neither does going slowly prevent living." Curiosity is the partner of patience; curiosity heightens our patience by keeping us interested. It grants us time to unravel problems rather than create more.
Rachelcat Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago Hi, all! The best laid plans of finishing up my Golden Dawn decks have been derailed. This week will be a new acquisition, Lessons from the Liminal Space. This is what happens when I’m not busy at work and start browsing decks! I wanted to add an oracle to my “Abstract” category, and I think this will do the trick. (The only other abstract oracle I have is The Secret World of Crystals Journey Cards, which is close-up photos of the interior of crystals, so it looks abstract, but it’s not exactly abstract art.) According to the booklet, the creator of Lessons from the Liminal Space is a magical practitioner and healer with synesthesia. As you see, the cards are abstract paintings with longish key sentences. 46 cards. Card 1 is an affirmation, but the rest are advice and/or observations. It will be interesting to see how the art reflects the words. The booklet provides spreads as rituals and lists and describes liminal deities. I’m throwing the deck into the deep end with a regular interview and then a full moon reading, but I think after that I’ll do one moon phase card plus one Lessons card to make this an easier week. What is your most important characteristic? At times, the healthiest decision is to sit, wait, and listen. Art: Green for healthy. Things haven’t come together yet. The deck is about health and messages to listen to. What is your strength? Allowing yourself to take spaces does not take space from others. Do not let anyone prevent your expansion. Art: The while tentacles are taking space without taking form the other colors. It’s very supporting of individuals over groups. Your weakness? When you stop looking, the right messages will come. Art: We’re in the dark but the light is just outside of it. This is maybe too ironic for an oracle. But I believe it’s true. What can you teach me? People weave in and out of our lives. Receive new friends with gratitude. Art: This is beautiful. Obviously woven threads. Looks like Mondrian. It can teach me how better to receive friends and let others go. How can I learn it? Home is the curation of the many feelings we wish to dwell in. Art: It looks like branches around a nest. These go together well. Friends arriving and departing and what home means. I can learn about friends by reflecting on who I want in my home. What will be the outcome of our work together? Intention is surrender. When intention is clear, so is the path. Art: Looks similar to previous card but more floral. Brighter colors for more active. I don’t find that to be true in my case. I know what I want to do, but I don’t know how to do it. (Similar to just knowing what the problem is doesn’t solve it.) Maybe the deck will help me connect my intentions with my path. Wow, the many cards worked much better than I thought it would. We’ll see if that continues this week.
