Signs point to enlightenment - 12/7

Book of Shadows Tarot cards. "As Above" deck.

I decided to ask the Book of Shadows Tarot a question and it gave me a pretty interesting answer. My question was: What do I most need to know today?

I guess when you ask the right question to the right tarot deck you get quite enlightening answers.

4 of Earth - Stones and Crystals

This is all about power, resources and energy that has been collectively stored for future use. It represents a sense of stability and that feeling of being grounded to the earth. It says that now is the time to save, store and conserve these energies.

XIV - Ostara - Temperance

Balance and grace, flowing easily in the world. Being at ease with life. Being in the right place at the right time all define this card.

Maiden of Fire

She lights a single candle and gives as a gift the first spark of inspiration.

3 of Fire - Venus

Venus is equated with love and romance, but she also governs creativity, talents of all sorts and art. The nature of the thing desired or value may be revealed at this time.

2 of Air - Pendulum

This signifies clear guidance represented by the clear crystal pendulum. All the necessary info is at hand and it is time to make a decision. The truth of the matter is clear if only we open our eyes to accept it.

3 of Air - Scrying

Finding the truth by looking at something with different eyes or from another point of view.

IV - The God - The Emperor

This is the male aspect of the Divine when it was split into two parts. The female counterpart is the Goddess energy represented by the Empress. This is God in this prime, strong and determined. It speaks of strength, stability and certainty.

I also decided to pick two more cards from the top of the deck. They are not depicted here.

XVI - Omens - The Tower

Maybe I should have left this one in the deck. LOL! This card is a warning. Traumas, disasters do happen and we may not understand why. But sometimes we are given a portent, a warning, so that we may be prepared. Trouble is ahead. Sudden and unexpected event happening.

9 of Air 

Promise of great wisdom is ahead for us but it comes by great sacrifice and suffering

My Take...

Energies that have been stored are coming to the surface right now. And we are in the right place at the right time to accept them. This energy is the energy of enlightenment, inspiration, wisdom, creativity. And it is a gift for us. It concerns talents we all have inside of us that are now coming to the surface and revealing themselves. This is clear guidance for us in order for us to make a decision. The truth is at hand. And we will find this truth by looking at this with a new perspective. And the new perspective we will receive has something to do with God, the Divine. We will have more strength, stability and certainty once this energy comes in.

But...

There is a warning. This wisdom, enlightenment does come at a price. We may have suffering, strife and unexpected events ahead of us but this dims in comparison to the wonderful enlightenment that waits for us on the other side of this. It is a promise of great wisdom. This is the wisdom of your Higher Self, your soul, the True You. You will gain the wisdom of all the lives you have lived, and then find yourself moving out of the energies of density and into the higher realms of love and hope.

I hope this inspires you and does not give you pause. 

Great things await us.

Have a wonderful day.
