Message from the Mythic Forest:
Today is February 1. 2010 , day before Groundhog day. It is snowing.
You all know, that during my free time this winter I have been studying the Greenwood Tarot and its images, lore and legends, its Mythic Forest.
Since almost the beginning of this process I have been "visited and instructed" - in dreams and in trance journeys, by a “Deer Woman”
She has Huuuuuge antlers very much like the ones I know from Scythian artwork and Tu’van tapestries. Her dress is mad up of green “Buxbaum“, purple and white blooming Heather and twigs of Mistletoe, with its ripe white berries. She smells Great!
So: Last Friday was Full Moon, beautiful and very bright. After an enchanted snow shoe hike through our forest and snow covered wetlands - by -23 centigrade - I was all set for my monthly private Full Moon ritual. I did my prayers, drummed and chanted and went on a journey to find some answers to solutions of / for 2 of my clients, who had requested I do so.
At the end of the journey, when I thought I was returning to the here and now, the “Deer Lady” appeared - in my living room!! Only - it was daylight, sunny and bright. !
Oh! Maybe I was not “back” yet after all!
The Lady of the Forest went over to our calendar at the wall, ripped of of 1 day, so it now said “Sunday, February 1” ; then she went to the radio and turned it on. Its clock, - - that never works(!!!) showed 3.05 !!! Listen, she “transmitted” wordlessly and you will know the truth about Mark...... “ Mark who”? I was wanting to ask, but she had dissolved and I was standing at our Family Altar in the living room. It was still just after 1.30 am now Saturday. Ok, I thought I will listen and on Sunday the 1st at 3.00 I turned on the radio. I thought I could do some “10 of Wands” work, namely sow in a new zipper into one of my winter jackets and just listen....The zipper quickly zipped out of my mind;
The program that came on was “ writers and company” and the lady interviewed a man that had just written a book about England in the 11th and 12th century and the legend of Robin Hood - AND had done research in all the relevant historical records and revealed, that Robin Hood was in truth a rather nasty villain of ill repute...... He had then written a sort od historical / fiction novel about the real “Hood“.
What kind of a message was that??
I since went onto the net to see, iffff I by chance can find out more about the author and his book. So, look here:
