1. A 'situating' card for you, a way to create context for the reading.
THE POOK - 60
Brian wrote about the Pook….”he is a master of the arts of illusion & delusion, holding up a distorted mirror to reveal the bad in the good and the good in the bad”.
Whenever I see the Pook in a spread I always feel the best course of action is stay alert, wait, weigh the situation because there is confusion of some kind around.
In this case it appears there is a situation which is causing or perhaps should be causing these feelings in you.
Whatever it is it probably looks better than it actually is. Sounds too good to be true….theses are the kinds of feelings the Pook invokes.
2. The current life-lesson that you are dealing with.
THE MASTER MAKER reversed - 22
Now I love this guy and call upon him frequently in my life to help with projects. He is a wonderful friend and when he is called he responds in a positive way, right away. See him here reversed caused me to stop and wonder ----what is going on?
I’m going out on a limb here but I feel that whatever job you are involved in is not going as it seems. Combining the Master Maker with Pook above could be the situation at “work/project/volunteer” is not what it seems. I have the feeling there are other forces working behind the scenes and while I think you may suspect something like this you are not fully cognizant of it. People are people no matter what positive or philanthropic situation they are in. It is these lessons in life – the ones that show us how be become disappointed in other people’s behavior. I do believe we know that all people are capable of great things, they talk the talk but walking the walk does not always endure.
This is sounding confusing but here I think you are disappointed in how a situation you believed to be good is deteriorating. Reversed the Master Maker is telling you this situation cannot be resolved quickly. The message here is to wait it out – let it go – and the answer will come. Again the “wait” message.
3. Qualities of the right partner for you in this lesson (and it could be a friend or work partner, not restricted to SO)
FFAFF FFOOTER reversed - 58
Strange – but I have the feeling that the partner is You. You innate sense of the situation is your best partner. Not the intellectual You, but the You, that combines you intuition with your intelligence You. It would be nice to have a partner to discuss situations with, to obtain their take on what is going on, an outside perspective. I am sure the fae are telling you that You are the best partner you will have in this situation, and the most reliable, they say!
4. An approach to making peace with past issues.
LYSE OF THE SHADOWS reversed - 44
Lyse is always here to help the healing process along. She is flighty though and therefore, you have to catch her while you can – opportunity knocks, answer, because it may be awhile until you have a second chance.
Now this reading is getting very heavy here – and probably one of the most confusing Fearies readings I’ve done.
Reversed Lyse says to me that this is all about you again. Are you beating yourself up about something? This reminds me of the “4 am uglies” – those times you wake up at 4 am and the thoughts will not leave your mind and they all seem so much worse at that hour. Something here needs to be cleared up with some past issue, but it calls for a Universal/blanket healing rather than a jury judgment. Calling upon the Lords of Karma, to just remove all past present and future situations of this nature from your life should do it. (Good lord, (no pun intended) what are the lords of Karma doing in a fae reading? Oh well, I write what they Guides tell me!)
5. What you need to find the spiritual lesson you are now learning.
THE OAK MAN – 47
The Oak Man speaks of Wisdom and Strength and Endurance. I am always reminded that the mighty Oak comes to us only through patience, perseverance and loving attention to the process.
The spiritual lesson of the Oak Man here in this reading, is one of relying on your own wisdom to solve/take action in the situation. Again, this seems to be a very solitary reading to me, wherein, you are reminded that you already possess everything you will ever need. You have the power, the answers, and the sense of timing to address this and any other conundrum you encounter in your life.
Your life to this time has prepared you for the immediate and the future. You are a very Wise woman.
The Oak man also reminds me of the Ents in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I loved their story in that book. The are strong, see everything and are wonderful guardians of secrets. Perhaps this is why they are so wonderful to have as friends. Yes, I have been know to hug a tree, ask a tree to remove my stress and take it down to mother earth, to take the notes I bury by their trunks’ and remove any negative energy. I love the many trees out my windows here. The Oak Man is a wonderful friend. I’m glad he showed up in this reading.
Ramblings: In this reading of 5 cards, there are no Singers, and no Guardians.
Master Maker comes on board as one of the Sidhe. While the Sidhe enjoy creating miracles and bring a power & wisdom with their energy, the master was reversed in this reading, so his energy was of a different nature.
Lyse & the Oak Man come from the Help-Line troupe – their presence here reminds us that it is outside in nature where we can find a different perspective to our problems. Take a walk and see if they don’t come by to visit.
The Pook & Footer as the Challengers bring us face to face with our demons. The things we like to forget. Their presence here appears to state that they are the areas that need addressing your life now. No outside help from the Guides/Guardians, no message from the angels – it appears up to you. But the Oak Man reminds you that you have all the answers, now you just have to learn to trust yourself.
Marion: This was very heavy reading – I was surprised it turned out this way. Please tell me if this is way off base & I will do another reading. In fact I almost re-did the cards to start over in the middle of the reading…but didn’t.
I’ll wait to hear from you.
Blessing,
