As Im so EAGERLY awaiting the new Transparent Oracle to come out (oh when oh when will that be!) I thought I'd get used to playing with cards transparently with the TT. Its been ages since Ive used it for reading, and its been neglected and only gets brought out to show people how Tarot is a very exciting world, i mean, see through cards! Thats revolutionary!
When I was shuffling I was hopeing to keep the cards all in one order, so that I could turn the cards and have them all facing their proper ways, no flipping or whatever, but that didnt happen. The cards went ping out of my hands, they wanted to be mixed around so they are. I wont go into detail of the MI or the flipped images or not, but let the composite speak for itself.
OK so 3 card draw with the TT and a Plant Guide from the DPO..
Mind (mental) 6 of swords
Hmm looking at that boated figure, and I guess so far today my mind has been drifting like a boat on some still water. Just floating. I got really inspired by a friend of mine who asked me about tarot and Jesus, and that started a whole new train of thought from what I have been previously thinking.
A floaty day isnt a bad thing though, because Ive let ideas come forward that I havent really let forward, like using the TT and spending all day cleaning it lol.
Body (physical)High Priestess
Maybe its the doing what I feel inspired to do. This morning I had no inkling to open up my TT and play with it, but I felt the urge to go cleaning, to find my TT and think 'it could do with a clean' and from that sparked a very interesting conversation.
I suppose the floating free mind and listening to what my intuition just said to do has really given me surprises and new insights that I thought of before.
Spiritual -5 of swords
Hmm this I dont understand. I feel very positive and upbeat about my spirituality. I do my bits and pieces that are important to me, rituals, observances etc.
Theres an idea in the TT book that Em wrote 'it is a reminder that there is no need to fight those who do not understand or agree. The only person who needs to acknowledge and embrace your beliefs is you'(p161 TT book).
Now, that is an interesting idea, as even doing the TT in a reading today has made me wobble about what my DPO PDR is really about? Can I blog about it? Should I do it secretly on the forum and hope no one notices?
Ya know - Sod em.. its my blog LOL. And, I still have my DPO for reflection :)
Together the composite image of my TT draw today is interesting. The figure of the 5 of swords is lost in the words of a book, does it matter if Im inspired by books that I 'shouldnt' be? Or do I have to do things 'by the book' but who wrote the damn book in the first place? Me I think LOL. I do worry a lot about being a hypocrit, but if its my own rules I break it means Ive outgrown the ones I originally made.
Hey, why am I justifying myself? I only need to acknowledge and embrace this! But its nice to share :D
The 6 of swords is like its just on the edge of the cave entrance made by the cresent moon of the HPS. Is it going in or out? Sometimes I think I think too much lol
Its a nice composite.

And the DPO card? Meadowsweet again..
Hmm that same message is echoing around the place. Interesting... And I wanted to share the message that I got from last night, but you wouldnt believe me if I did tell you ;)
And if I overlay the TT composite with Meadowsweet I get a very interesting image. The cards seem to follow the plants stem in the card, from bottom right to top left, and theres the HPS moon that seems to sever the plant and the 2 minor cards. Its like theres a message - I need to march to the beat of my own drum.. not to worry about other people, to have an open mind to get the odd whisper from the Gods.

Funky stuff!
