A reading for a friend
there's two readings I want to mention here.
Last night, I had the energy and the desire to go out and do something, yet it was getting late, and wasn't sure if going out was such good idea or not since I need to get up bright and early every morning with my three young children. So, just for the heck of it, (was bored and wanted to play with the fae) I decided to shuffle and see what came up. Go out or stay in? And guess WHO showed up? LAUGHS...The green woman. The INSTANT I looked at her, she said "go out and play" so I smiled and looked at the time.
Now to rewind a bit here, earlier that night I talked to a friend of mine who was going to be out till about 11. After pulling the card, it was 11. So I gave him a call. Said that he had friends coming up from out of town, and that it wouldn't be a good night. I said ok cool. Decided to just relax on the couch and read for a bit, but I couldn't stop thinking of WHY the green woman came up. Her message was very distinctive, but I didn't feel like going out by myself. I figured all well, maybe she wanted me to stay home and play with them (as I was reading their book). About a half hr later, the phone rings. It's my friend, saying that his friends left (after 5 minutes of visiting...RUDE) and that if I was still game, then he wanted to hang out. So I said cool beans, and headed out the door.
Now for the second part...
I asked him if he wanted to play with my fae with me, he said sure. So I took out the deck and he did the pick your favorite, least favorite and universal card. Now here's where this gets interesting.
He felt it necessary to pick two cards. I can't remember who the first card was, but the second card was Arval the Parrot. This was very interesting, cuz I just had a talk with him less then a week ago asking if he could please communicate to me more clearly as there has been issues arising in my social life that is less desirable that could be avoided if he communicated to me more clearly. (Don't ask..smiles).
Later on that night, we were foolin around playing with the deck, asking the oracle, if so and so was a fae, who would s/he be. (This is really fun, oughta try it sometime. And be prepared to laugh). He shuffled asking who his son would be, and he got The dark lady, but it was more for him then his son. Well, I shuffled the deck asking who my friend's son would be. All the sudden I felt a warmness to the deck and it saying, there's something that I need to tell you feeling. I flipped the card over and there he was...Soul Shrinker. I really feel that SS is a protective fae. I've never been scared of him, and after reading my sisters posts about her experience with pulling SS, it even reaffirmed my understanding of him. So now I'm worried. SS wants to protect my friends baby. I went started shuffling the deck again, leaving SS out, and before I could barely do anything, Arval the Parrot POPS out of the deck. For the second time this evening, Arval the Parrot showed up with my friend. His kind wise eyes and the gentle way that he's pointing to the glowing ball in his throat. Now this is an interesting reading. SS wants to protect his baby, The dark lady being my friend knows (somewhat) what is going on, but he needs to communicate to the mother, as there is more that is going on then what meets the eye...but he needs to approach her delicately so she will tell him.
To rewind a little bit more. First of all, if you haven't guessed, their not together. Aside from that, she at one point was dating this guy, turns out he's very mean, vindictive, stalker type. Very threatening. He's been coming around the mother again, wanting her back. This has been going on for a while now off and on. My friend has recieved numerous calls from her to tell him to come get their son, that the bad person is coming and I don't know what he's going to do. My friend of course does so, but he also has feelings for her, and wants to be there to protect her too, but he does as she wishes, and takes their son to where it's safe from the bad person. In any case, I think something serious is about to happen, and their son is in the middle somehow. I told my friend all of this, and he as very receptive to recieve it. I also know that SS wants their son with my friend, to better protect him, that he knows my friend can offer his son better protection then the mother. But his hands are tied on that issue. Sighs. Poor baby. I hate to see such a young child have to be caught up in the bad things that humans sometimes reflect.
I thought it interesting how the green woman came up to tell me to go out and play, and then SS and Arval the Parrot came up to give my friend a VERY important message. AS well as the dark lady.
