Satori
I pulled out my trusty ol' FO and was talking with my faeries about the newly released Heart of Faery with it, and I'm sort of embarrassed to tell you all this story, but it is truly what happened and I think you will all understand. I asked my funny little Troops what they were thinking about the new kid in town HOF. I wondered if they liked them, and would they all play nice together.
I pulled the Piper. I immediately knew this was business as usual. I mean The Piper pipes...no big deal. And for me, in my deck, he isn't about a big announcement usually, he sort of stays in the background all the time. His is a gentle and sort of dependable feeling...so I knew that this was just no big deal. Next Fae up, Unity. And then the next one up after Unity was Losgunna.
As these realizations were hitting me, the Piper was playing and I think that embedded in the music was a lot of the message, and that part of it was keeping me relaxed. I'm a singer and so music is important to me. It is like food, need music to live. The Piper sort of falls out of my deck and I think, ok put something on that is True Music, something Soulful.
And it hit me. This was only a new thing to me, and to my pals on AT. These faeries well they all knew each other!!! They've known each other since the beginning. I was the one trying to learn how to fit the "new" ones in with my old buddies, and well, truth be told my new buddies already knew about me too. I was the only one out of the loop.
Boy did I feel stupid. But that didn't last long, because I was having my DNA rewritten, literally.
Unity was the one doing the talking here. And boy what a lesson. I was being given Unity as a new tool. Unity is a Talking Stick for me now, a Shaman's Talking Stick. Because this was a rite of passage, a special time for me, I was being allowed to see Unity in a new form. The ball of light at the top of the Wand was now looking like two hands cupped around the light. I saw thumbs there at the front of the ball of light, and the hands were there holding the ball and I knew that this was me holding Unity in a new way, learning about the Fae and myself in a new way.
Unity was explaining that now that I was ready to meet the larger community I would need Unity as a sort of partner, so that if ever there was a breakdown in communication, my holding Unity would put me in a space where I would be able to Hear the Fae and find my way through the Voices.
I will see the path through the Forest.
And, gulp, if I were ready, I could sort of hold Unity in my own energy field, and the Wand would sort of become part of my spine....and the ball sit in my head like a new chakra, and the horns my new horns....gives me the shivers to think about it, not sure I am ready although Losgunna says I am.
Losgunna being here is a comfort to me. She has this sort of readiness to move forward, she is almost tired of waiting for me to get on with things and really immerse myself in the Gifts I am being offered here. She is pretty much telling me that this should have happened a long time ago. She says that I should have looked further into the deck for her friends, that they've always been there if I had only taken the time to see. She is going to be showing me some things with the HOF, and she has some kind of urgency to get on with it, but says she'll adjust to my pace, and Unity is pretty much the boss with Losgunna my tour guide. (Interesting to note as I went through HOF the first time I was very aware of Losgunna with me. Very strange, and I am dead serious here, but I kept thinking of Losgunna.)
What I know now is that my Troops are sort of my honor guard and the HOF are more like runners who will be doing work and showing me deeper ways to connect with the information, which is why they don't tell their names right up front. The attunement for Faery happens with the FO and the HOF are a different kind of fae, sort of like a more active principal....can't quite put into words yet.
Perhaps the most profound reading I've ever done myself, bar none. This was a big reading for me. I'm still a little bit shaky thinking about it, and about how it felt.
