Hi bec
This rounds reading is here for you:
I did this reading at a place called Jenolan Caves. These are beautiful crystal caves, filled with stalagmites and stalegtites, chambers of unbelievable beauty. They have names like the Cathedral, Imperial, Orchestral … mother Nature has been working away for 345 million years to create such splendor, and walking through this amazing monument I drew your cards.
The first I drew was at the entrance of the Caves, the second was inside about half way through, and the last card was drawn at the near end of the journey. Least to say, it was an absolute joy to read in these caves, and secondly, it was one with the purpose of giving you the energy and the beauty in the reading. I hope you enjoy and it brings some special meaning and insight for you.
Blessings

Card One:
The Unexpected Joy – this card indicates what the joy may be.
LABRODITE
Labradorite is a soda lime feldspar and can be found in crystals and crystalline masses. Considering I am in the oldest caves know (365 million years old) and they are lime caves, it doesn’t surprise me to find this card coming up for you.
The Labradorite pictured in your card is Bluish Green, and has a rainbow reflected from a fracture in the crystals face.
I am led up many stairs through a thin tunnel of rock, winding and dark, I suddenly come into the light of day. I am standing on a rock platform, which has opened like a window high above a flowing pool of crystal turquoise water below. From this perspective I can see out and beyond and below – the view is spectacular and breathtaking…
Interpretation:
The Unexpected Joy.
Drawing this card for your Unexpected Joy is a wonderful card. It means that what you have put out to the Universe for, is on its way. This is the Lucky Stone, and one which connects you to your higher intuitive self, more-so than just a level of awakening, it denotes the ‘gift’, and intertwined with that is that of contact with the ‘voices’. You will receive messages from the other side – it is attuned with clairvoyance and intuitive messages coming through.
Your ‘unexpected joy’ relates to ‘connections’ and reconnecting with that which was lost. PS: I just thought about your computer LOL!! Maybe there's a new one around the corner, or a better connection and installation coming
Any fear which you have held, regarding the situation around you, is about to dissipate, and you will see that life becomes something that you can look forward to, and strive on with, with joy in your heart. There is a breakthrough coming, you are about to come out of that dark and winding passage of time in your life, and see the rainbow, the beautiful view all around. Spirit asks you to enjoy the view and breath deeply. See how Life looks so much different once you have reached the summit and are giving a glimpse of what the journey was about, and the potential in store from this point onwards. Realizations are coming, messages from above are being delivered to you, it is not just hope, it is true and real, and you will smile and be amazed that things turned out as they did. You would never have thought like this … but the caution here is not to be complacent, or feel that it is all good to be true and it will just all disappear anyway, its not too late. Be open to accepting and embracing the Joy which is now bestowed upon you – you own it, it is yours and you are a deserving recipient – you may need to be kind to yourself to see this for what it is – it is not a gift, but ‘the’ gift you have been waiting for.
The fear will reside, the gift will be given, it is a time of being connected once more to that which gives you the means and the way.
Card Two:
A Contributing Factor.
This position indicates something significant, which will be tied into the Joy factor! It may be influenced by, or come to them in the form of a person, a letter, something, which the Querant did, a gift, a turn of events, out of adversity, a new job, a move, a decision, a surprise etc.
YELLOW CITRINE
Citrine is a member of the quartz family, and can be found naturally, but is rare. Natural Citrine is pale yellow and very beautiful.
I was standing in one of the Chambers called the Orchestral Chamber, a massive cave which is 900 feet high. Within the Chamber is a series of flow-stone formations which start from an opening in the roof of the cave, which was above. Over the millions of years Mother Nature has created what looks like, a series of small waterfalls. They are 90% calcite and are transparent, and once light is put behind them the minerals in the calcite are awakened, the natural orange and yellow warm color shine through.
A ladder descends from the opening in the roof to the floor. In the late 1800’s, people would ascend the ladder to get out of the cave.
The acoustics in this chamber are perfect – Dame Joan Sutherland called it the most perfect acoustic space she has ever sung. As the guide turned on the lights of the Chamber, he also turned on the music, and suddenly the cave became alive – violins and oboe’s, cymbals and drums, French horns and harps, in the glow of the crystal waterfalls.
This was a perfect place in which to read this card.
Interpretation
Looking around in the cave, I could feel and see the bounty of nature. Prosperous and beautiful, it was a unique and special treasure. This is the feeling I had with this card. The gift of abundance - something astounding and astonishing. It is closely related to your finances, and once activated, the energy of the Citrine streams into your life overflowing, just as the crystal waterfalls stem from above, so does the good luck and prosperity flow into your life, and made available to you – manna from heaven!
The other aspect of the Citrine I see (related to the Labradolite) are the messages from Spirit, assuring you that there is a connection to the Universe, and a connection to your prosperity. The ladder is in place, and your cries and wishes have ascended to the higher realms, so too will the answers and gifts descend to be placed in your hands. The sound – the messages – will be crystal clear. You will not miss the messages given from above, they
will be given, it will be reliant on you just enjoying the experience, the sounds, and being part of something very special at this time.
Citrine is also related to the sun, and the color of yellows, gold’s and oranges. Although I was underground, there was the light shining through the waterfalls – glowing yellow and orange. The warmth, the color, was coming from within, and I get the impression that there is a growing warmth within you. It made me think of children and happiness, and I wondered - Not pregnant are you?
With whatever is coming your way, it will most certainly help you in many ways, on many levels and in many areas of your life. Allow abundance in – be careful not to block it, or shoo it away - An opportunity awaits you, and you will be very happy with what you receive.
Card Three:
How will this impact on the Querant – the benefit of the Unexpected Joy to the Querant.
LAPIS LAZULI
A blue stone, which is often flecked with pyrite, it was a favored stone used in ancient Egypt for its beauty and connection to spiritual enlightenment.
I drew this card while standing inside a cavern upon a bridge, overlooking deep below, a stunning river which flows through the bottom of the end section of the cave complex. The water was so clear, I could hardly see it. Cold and beautiful, it was 10 foot deep yet I could see the riverbed stones so clearly – I wish you could have been there.
Interpretation:
Firstly, as a benefit relating to your Labradorite and Citrine, I feel that drawing this card releases you in some way, from fears, attachments of getting ahead, and part of it comes from seeing clearly the problems that held you back. There is a new attitude from this new ‘prosperity, luck and gifts’.
I think why the card has come through when I was at the cave river because – internal cleansing and being rid of toxins which are toxic beliefs and behaviors, – which may have been manifesting physically through the blood, lung, upper torso, neck to third eye area.
The benefit sees that the NEW energy has cleared what ever blockages were there. You are a clear and flowing channel, you can feel the release, the energy gently moving and winding its way through you, cleansing and rejuvenating your mind body and spiritual centers.
Lapis also relates to raw natural power, and I am seeing this as your ‘power’ spot. Once clear of many of the things which have plagued you, especially relating to money, work, what you have, what you don’t have, luck, creativity and spiritual gifts, you should feel free and empowered to be able to go ahead and do what you want to do. Forging ahead, released of the pressures, you see and feel the release of the fear-based tensions which have held you bound for so long. You have a renewed faith in life and your place in it.
Lapis also asks you to lead and not follow, dare to be different, and dare to stand up for your uniqueness – communicating this will be helped by having your monetary prosperous backing.
Weather this reading relates to you and your child, your ability to work, have money, live and follow some form of education, expand your family – the cards point towards this becoming possible very soon. The wait is over, and a new journey with a flow of opportunities lie ahead.

Night is gone and the day is dawning, cast off the old and embrace the new ideas and anything, which you have found recently, is for your new path. You have a heightened and intensified time for ‘reading accurately’. Any guidance you need will be given.
I feel that there is a significant connection to the Crysatl carsd of Citrine for this week - as it has connections to the 'Sun' - joy and happiness.
