The talking point I have chosen to look at relates to the tarot, oracles, and other forms of divination. And here’s a little something, I don’t use tarot cards. I’ve never really gotten on well with them. Sure, they seem to be a popular system of discovering future trends, but I found that when I try to use them ego gets in the way and I become biased in my interpretations.
I found that I had the same problem with other oracle cards. I don’t however, have that problem with the Goddess Amulets. With these I find that I am not able to inject personal bias into the reading.
A bit over 2 years ago, right before my world came crashing down around me, I did an amulet reading on trust. I recently came across this reading again, and thought I would share it with my readers.
This particular reading was one of the first that I did by combining shamanic journeying with amulet reading. I do this by first travelling shamanically into my Sacred Garden and then while in that space drawing 1 amulet at a time and “speaking” to it.
The Sacred Garden is a space I have created that exists outside of both normalworld time and otherworld time. I go here at the beginning of any journey before being met by my Spirit Guides or Animals and taken to where I need to go. I finish a journey in this same space before returning to normal world time. I also go here if I want to meet with one of my Spirit Guides or do personal healing work.
Journey into the Amulets on Trust
6 May, 2012
What are my feelings about trust?
Inanna
Inanna – Journey to the Underworld. My whole message is one of trust. Release that which is holding you back. Let go of your fears. Journey with me to the Underworld. Heed my call. I have been calling and you have not answered. Journey to the Underworld. Pass through the 7 gates, releasing a part of what you don’t need at each gate.
Transformation – fear and trust. You cannot trust when you will not release fears.
Need to make a long journey into the Underworld. Into the realm of death. Trust I will be there with you and for you.
Do I trust myself completely?
Comb
Comb – It is not trust in yourself you need to worry about. It is trust in others. Because you do not fully trust, you cannot fully trust in yourself.
Release doubts and fears.
Know your own power.
Self-doubt = mistrust in what you can do and are about.
Is there a situation or person challenging my trust right now?
Temple
Temple – Balance. Walk in strength and power. Call to where your power dwells and show what you are about.
The only one you need to work on trusting is Us. Journey to Us.
Come through the gates to speak with Us.
We will guide you, but you need to trust Us.
What do I need to do to heal issues relating to trust?
Nightstar
Night star – Embrace your power. Make your wishes.
Do your work. Take time to be with us and stop making excuses.
We’ve given you what you need, now use it.
Do you have any other message for me?
Laussel Goddess
Laussel Goddess – Moontime.
Things will come to be within a moontime.
This is when you will begin to fully underatand what it means to trust yourself.
