Seeing Through the Veils – The Art and Practice of Divination

˜ ˜ ˜

I found this fantastic article written by Carol Proudfoot-Edgar that I would like to share with you. Carol was very kind and she gave me written permission to publish her article here. I am sending her and her husband many blessings (she will know why)! Hope you will enjoy reading.

(for a workshop given, May 31 – June 4, 1996)

I am seeking, I am seeking
in the drum, the water, the sky,
I am seeking, I am seeking
In the Earth, the air, the chaos and the starry sky
In the seas, the fields, the rocks and mountains high
The truth is coming, the Way revealed..

Invocation for Divining

We stand around in a Circle and suppose
While in the middle the Mystery sits and knows.

Tarot art – The Fool 2.

One more interesting Fool. It is more Jester than tarot Fool, and I miss some symbolism, but I kind of like it. The author is djrbennett  on DeviantArt.

So the deck I’m using the most is Thoth. It is really important for me that cards I’m doing readings with are somehow clear, without distracting illustrations. If, for example, wands are fire element, it is logical that wands will be reddish, so when you look at the spread on the table you can see which colour/element is dominating, and that  is important for reading, isn’t it? There are so many decks that have beautiful illustrations but they are not usable, not for me though. Illustrations can be very rich and somehow disturbing so they can have opposite effect – they can block my visions.
