I have taken the unusual step of keeping this post back, waiting for the second half of the year to begin before posting it. Although I could have begun to interpret it at the start of the year, as I have done many times before, instead I wanted to see how things had progressed and then do the reading much closer to the time of the events that are being predicted here.
Lammas
Princess of Cups
“No matter what age you are and how challenged you have been by life, the Princess of Cups asks you to open your heart and welcome in tender feelings. Now is the time to let warm and loving heart-felt burst through the dam of fear that you may have built up within you to keep yourself ‘safe’.” (source: DruidCraft Tarot blog)
As the harvest is scythed and the fruits picked from the tree, she asks us:
Are you prepared to cut down your old pains? How can you be more loving in the world? Are you ready to open your heart?”
• Brigid emotional connection
• The power of the grail to be in tune with the coming autumnal change
• Sign of Taurus and the moon signify the time to work
• Between moving and still water
Autumn
The Moon
• Moon shows a path to a portal
• Two guardians – use sound to sing their song
• The sign of Cancer shows the way from water to air
• The 18th is a significant date
Samhain
Princess of Swords
• Another (3rd) princess card!
• The will of Brigid strong this time of year – I am bound to her cause
• Wisteria, bluebells and primroses
• Bringing the air (sky) to connect to the earth
• Significant time is when the swallows leave
Winter
Ace of Wands
• Homage to the returning sun – a ceremony at the solstice this year
• Bridging the gap through the use of my staff
• By the power of Cernunnos/Custennin making a leap of faith into more new learning (birch)
I will now see how that all relates to the quests and outing in the latter half of 2017.
Chris.
