Natalee...second Celtic Cross reading...
I did this one right after the other one I posted...and asked, "Where is Natalee Holloway's body?" I used a different RWS deck for this reading (different from the first reading). This text was also cut and pasted from an email to a friend, so...I was thinking/piecing together the cards/information as I was writing it. Please forgive its length, but I'm usually very wordy...when thoughts jump into my head...
Here's what came up:
Card#1...Eight Of Cups....the situation: Leaving a situation behind....walking away. Natalee was left behind....discarded apparently....and based on the setup of the cups...it looks like one is missing (a literal reference, possibly). Pictorially speaking, notice the idea of land-water-land..which will play out in subsequent cards in this reading.
Card#2...Four Of Pentacles... crosses or obstructs...and it is a guy with money...who's conservative and holds on tightly to what he has...doesn't want to lose all that he's worked for. This could be the perp. holding onto what he has built materially and reputation-wise. This could also be a possible reference to the main suspect's father who wants to be a judge, etc.. He could possibly have the means to "hold on to" his empire, wouldn't you say? This is about security (of the perp.) and once again, it obstructs what was left behind; IOW, these individuals are possibly obstructing the finding of what/who was left behind: Natalee
Card#3...Ace Of Cups...what is below; subconscious influence....intuition, peace of mind...love and compassion
Card#4...once again, the Seven Of Swords...the receding past or past influence...lying and stealing...sneakiness...deception while others are oblivious. I think this could be our man, the perp., getting away with you know what. Not to mention...using a different deck, the Seven Of Swords came up in the PREVIOUS reading on Natalee! Uncanny....
Card#5....Ace Of Pentacles....what is above and in the conscious realm...prosperity, practicality, being grounded in the material....this one had me thrown. There are 4 Pentacle cards in this reading....money, groundedness (earth-element). Ok....maybe I'm seeing something now...in the two-card dynamic of card#s 3 & 5 (subconscious vs. conscious influences)...we have TWO Aces; one (card#3) could be seen as intuition and is a water sign (one of the four elements); the other is about centeredness/being grounded...and is an earth sign. I think what we're seeing here is opposing forces. Deep down (card#3) we want to find this girl...by whatever means necessary...we can feel that we're close (intuition). On the surface, someone else's goal (card#5)is to make sure she's not found. Not to mention...if she's not found, then the perp. remains free and retains his "security." Also, the theme of water and earth/ground will play out again in card#s 7, 8 and 10 below.
Card#6...Two Of Cups...immediate future, approaching influence...at first when I saw this card...I immediately thought, "Two people, holding cups/drinks...and there is a Caduceus (sign of medical)..." I thought of the possibility of Natalee having "meds" (a pill) put in her drink...and what would've happened afterward. Or is someone working in "cohoots"...a partnership of sorts...to keep things balanced in the perp.'s favor?
*Card#7...Six Of Swords...subjective viewpoint...a boat, crossing a body of water...with two passengers...and many problems. Well, pictorially speaking...this speaks volumes, doesn't it? Like, she was possibly transported by boat somewhere....
*Card#8....Queen Of Pentacles...external viewpoint....another card which initially had me thrown...But which eventually came to me (while emailing a friend this reading)... Pentacles=earthly things....and I've seen this card referred to as "Mother Earth," so...I gotta be wondering if this is referring to a possible burial. In the picture, the queen ("mother") is sitting on her throne in the middle of nature... And, if you look closely in the background, there are TWO bodies of water..with a body of land in-between (an island?)! This is very similar to the pictorial reference in Card#1.
Card#9...Ten Of Pentacles...hopes and/or fears....this card is about family/generations and inheritance (security again?). Well, I think it refers to the perp. again...his heritage and its opulence...and the protection of it. Their hope is to retain their heritage...keep the perp. outta jail, etc..
*Card#10...Ten Of Swords....outcome.....this is a nasty card....it's about being pinned down....end of a cycle....dark clouds hovering, but breaking. The body is partially covered in the pic....with swords all up and down the back. The body is on/in ground...and water is visible, too. In fact, the body in the foreground is on land, then there is water, then beyond the water, there is more land. So, it's....land--water--land....which may go along with the idea that she was ferried somewhere across a body of water...to another island/piece of land. Interesting...
***Now....looking at all the SWORDS cards (swords=strife; problems; issues) in the reading....they all seem to refer to what would've befallen at the hands of the perp.: We have Seven Of Swords...showing sneakiness, stealing/lying; We have Six Of Swords showing crossing a body of water with problems/issues in-tow (i.e., Natalee?); And finally we have Ten Of Swords....pinned down, overkill...partially covered...in the dirt. Water is visible between two islands or tracts of land.
Ok, so..I gotta wonder if Natalee was moved by boat somewhere....and buried in the ground. In fact, since Card#7 is the moving-by-boat card...and it is supposed to be the subjective viewpoint..I'm thinking the last thing she may have remembered was being on a boat(?). Later on, from veiewpoints outside of hers (i.e., the perp. or perps.), she was buried. I wonder if there are some secret, out of the way islands where she could be looked for, you know?
I wonder if anyone has done a reading and maybe studied the numbers a little more closely...and come up with possible coordinates (latitude/longitude)?!?!?! Just a thought...
