SoulEssence – Transpersonal Cards

by

The Transpersonal cards of one’s SoulCollageĀ® Deck do not speak with the “I am the one who…” voice.

They are part of the “One” from which the “Many” spring forth.

I already have a Source Card and a Witness Card in my Deck.

A few weeks ago I created what seem to me, to be two SoulEssence cards.

SoulEssence is that divine spark inside of us.

SoulEssence is our purest, most clearest essence, who we each are at the deepest soul level.

Groundhog Day Reading- Surprise!

by

This is one of the cards I drew in my daily reading this morning.  And I’ll admit, I didn’t even realize it was Groundhog Day when I first began this writing.  But halfway through, when I started writing about the shadows, it came to me, “Oh my gosh, it’s Groundhog Day!
Sc56666871
And this card is all about SHADOWS!   Which is what I most especially love about SoulCollage!

I am the one who stands at the open curtain with my lips pursed.  I am the one who is beginning to come out of hiding.  I am the one who is bathed in shadow and light.

I am the one who raises my face to the heavens, to the light and who embraces my light and dark parts.

I am the one who has been behind the curtain and who now is looking out to see where the shadows are coming from.

My message for you today is thisā€¦ hold my hand, stand by my side as I look out this window.  Seeing my own shadows is scary, you know. I donā€™t like looking at the shadowy figures in my mind.

And itā€™s not a coincidence that today is Groundhogā€™s Day.  He is looking to see his shadow.  6 more weeks of winter if he does!  And when he does, everyone groans and whines about more winter.  But for me, I am happy to see my shadow because it means there is more light!  I am happy to see my shadow because it means I am seeing more and more of my whole, real, authentic, beautiful self.

Carrying- Council Suit

by

Sc000111000 I made this card at the annual KaleidoSoul retreat last month and did the interpretation below off the top of my head during a session I was leading there. 

Once again, I am surprised and amazed at how deep this work can take us, and how quickly:

Who are you?

I am the one who carries colorful things on my head.  I am the one who isn’t burdened by what is on/in my head.  I am the one who contains all things.  I am the one who is at all stages of a woman’s life.  I am the one who loves being a girl, and a young adult,, and an older woman.  I am the one who celebrates all the stages of a woman’s colorful life.

What do you have to give me?

I give you color and confidence and the poise to carry many rich and colorful things all at once.  I give you gladness.  I give you the knowing that it is good to be a woman and to “carry” many things.

What do you want from me?

I want you to relax into the “carrying.”  I want you to know that all is good.  I want yo to be proud of what you “carrying.” 

Is there anything else you have to tell me today? We are women. We carry things in our heads and hearts and minds and souls.  It is what we do.  Be proud of this.  Be proud and glad about the many things you are carrying.
