most amazing deck so far !
Hi Veronica,
I'm just starting to use this deck, and I find it already very surprising to say the least. I did a first spread (which I have posted here on AT) to see what I could learn from this deck and it really was impressive on how this deck was speaking to me right from the bat.
Then, I did a second reading consisting in a 3 cards layout.
I just asked the deck to tell me something, in order to learn from it.
here is it : (I am not in the reading section of the site, so I hope it is ok if I post it here)
the reading was done in the morning :
2 of wands Reversed - 7 of wands reversed - Cernunnos reversed
first, I wouldn't know what to make of it as I jotted down all ideas in my reading diary. Especially because all of the cards were reversed, it seemed to speak of a very difficult situation. I kept looking in the book that came along with the deck.
right from my diary :
2 of wands Reversed : a released tension which could be considered as a miracle, a sudden change and most of the time a happy one. A decision is taken which resolves a long period of tension.(according to the book).
the cards shows the outline of a character on a mountain.
7 of wands reversed : someone who's not having the upper hand, standing his/her ground fighting people one cannot see in the cards, but who are menacing and threatening.
Cernunnos reversed : someone trapped in a difficult situation (looking at the other cards, not a love relationship to me), abuse of power and reversed along with the other cards it was speaking of release from these bounds ....
Now, before you read any further : does THAT speak to you ?
Now, in the evening, in front of my TV, I had one of those *WOW* moment :
I still could not interpret the spread which I was still looking at, I always do that when watching tv : looking at my cards and studying. lol.
But in the middle of the movie I was watching, there was a news special written all over it.
Ingrid Betancourt has been released from being hostage in the Amazonian Forest where she was kept prisoner for 6 years.
And to add to my stupefaction, the person next to me quipped : oh, you know they put her portrait at the top of the mount Everest ?
So, THAT was the character in the 2 of Wands reversed : her portrait ....
the menacing people, the fighting to get free, the bound, all these trees and forest from the cards and the liberation it all became clear. I felt like I had been hit on my head with the whole deck for not understanding beforehand.
Remember Alice when she has all of these cards flying around her ?
I am definitely going to keep reading with that amazing deck.
cheers
Jayce
