Using Glastonbury Tarot

Feeling inspired to use the Glastonbury Tarot once more, this time undertaking an open channel working to perchance insights of possible significance by way of a different set of "eyes" and of a fresh perspective offered by this seldom used divination aid. I have been aware too that a late friend of mine has moved in close, to perhaps assist me with this working. She was a brilliant healer on the manifest plane, an Irish lass who was a close friend of mine and has been sadly missed over the years.

There is it seems the misery of knowing more but being unable to say more ... this state of mind appears to relate to one of the nine. Not necessarily the state of mind of the one who has recently come forward but it seems to reverberate around the minds of them all. It seems perhaps that the offspring or other such close link to one could perhaps have a close call connection with the direction/organisation in which those who took MM reside. There is the sense of truly suspecting someone but having dismissed the feeling for so long because of connections too close to the personal bone to wish to reveal.

I see clearly an old woman making a patchwork quilt. She is singing quietly to herself whilst she makes the quilt 'over the sea to Ireland; love is fair whilst it lasts, but when its over sometimes tears are too painful to make'.

The sense of guilt relates back many years to a failed relationship for someone. A bad break which really still is being carried. It doesn't relate to the mystery but it relates subconsciously to the state of mind as it is what has shaped the way someone responds to what it is or isnt they could have done but didn't do.

Sore eyes maybe an eye infection or an eye examination put off for too long. Aware that a boat did take the little mite across the water ... the old woman is nonchalant when this is related to me. The name Arthur reveberates from the higher realms. Arthur and also the surname Jackson but the two are not related in anyway. I see clearly a debriefing in some makeshift office ... plenty of line diagrams on a white board ... established intelligence operations stretching out across the Med ... then the order came it seems to let someone slip the net. Observed they were permitted to travel the route of a trade ... and then the scouts followed in the shadows covering those tracks ...

Significant names had in their possession this powerful 'cargo' ... treated like the most fragile of chinaware ... taken whilst sleeping towards an invisible destination. Safe and well. Someone of great affluence had an audience with this cargo ... this timeline appears to have been in the early stages ....

The working has uncovered 'familiar' significators once more ... a new divination aid but the same recogniseable images:-

The Ace of Swords and THE STAR ... the two significators for MM. Within the working are all positive affirmations - growth, acceptance, honesty. But what exactly is the working revealing?

Remember each and every casting of tarot laid in a pattern clearly say 'something' ... it is a profound statement which the sceptical minded might readily scoff at and debunk. But in truth each and every tarot spread is a messenger from the higher subconscious. An array of images which require interpretation.

Commencing with the Ace of Swords let us follow the trail of the ten crystals and unravel what these nine cards are perhaps saying.

The three cards to the left represent the past. What has now become history. The historic nature of these cards relate to the two perspectives of MM. The Ace of Swords is the commodity value that those behind her disappearance relate her to. The reason for her disappearance. The risk of all the planning and all the execution of the steps taken ... not just one person ... but a group of people working together to attain a shared goal.

The other perspective is represented by the Star ... 'the Shining Star' ... the personification of the little princess/the little jewel which is desperately missed by her family. Interestingly, the image of the star in the Glastonbury Tarot is the image of 'Bride's Mound' which is a small rounded hill sacred to the Goddess Bridie (also known as Brigit who is the goddess of fire, creativity, childbirth and healing). Brigit is the Celtic Goddess revered by poets, priests and doctors. She was born in Kildare in Ireland and also founded a monastery in Kildare. She is associated with the qualities of love and compassion ... an apt association with the significator of MM. To Brigit I will aim a special prayer ... perhaps this is the reason why my late friend moved in close ... to deliver the prayer in person and request the speedy return of MM safe and sound?

The 4 of Chalices relates to emotions and it suggests that there is a definite 'opposition' between the two viewpoints of MM. There is a bitterness and a rivalry somewhere and a sense that someone somewhere sometime leaned too heavily on someone else ... the resultant effect was to make MM 'disappear' ... as an act of revenge. MM seems to have fitted perfectly into the mould of someone required like a figurehead and it was this past event which somehow fuelled the choice of MM as the child to be taken.

The three images in the centre of the working represent the present day. That which is occurring at this point in time. Hence the reasoning I feel for the 8 of Vesicas ... its affirmation
is that of patience. MM will be returned ... but the event is not quite yet. Patience is required ... for the return appears to be the next story in the making. The script is being crafted it seems much like the statutes created by the carpenter in the image. Indeed this carpenter appears to represent Pinocchio's creator ... the Pied Piper perhaps? His minions seem to be rehearsing the script ... and planning the screen play as I write? The 9 of Vesicas I feel represents JT ... who has recently reappeared back in the limelight .... a current media article relates to her ... and her attempts to help add to the growth of the latest directions undertaken to find MM. Her announcement of the man seen with the child in his hand ... the flowers she is nurturing in the garden ... the woman in the image is watering. The Maid of Vesicas relates to the emergence of a new way of thinking which in recent times was the anticipated change of tact, from the blood on the wall' and its cruel speculation that MM died in the apartment, to the current media attention relating to 'the abduction of MM' ... indeed at one time the overlap could clearly be seen in one tabloid paper which reported conflicting new's stories simultaneously ... this was forewarned by the crescent moon bridge article many weeks before ...

The three cards to the right represent the future ... from the trail of crystals which lead from the 9 of Vesicas ... the media trail appears to now be heading toward the 5 of Swords and the affirmation of 'acceptance' ... interestingly behind the figure in the image ... where the 5 swords are all in the ground is a piece of cloth which has 'spilled blood' upon it ... thankfully the 'blood' and DNA theories are now in the past ... the image represents the chance now to put that painful spell behind us ... acceptance now that, quote, 'the five of swords represents the ending of a struggle that has been taking place in life. This paves the way now for fresh insights' ... movement now towards a brighter future ... and the chance for K & G and family 'to recover from a past situation of abuse' ...

A phase or trail of honesty will appear it seems in the close future ... the 3 of Staffs appertains to accomplishment due to steadfast application. A blond haired male approaches from the future ... someone to be met on the trail within the mystery. A new face to watch out for .... not a suspect but perhaps a witness ... or a new angle from which to view the situation from. Someone fresh and not linked publically to the mystery before ... appears to come into proceedings in the near future ... a trustworthy source.

Then finally ... between the 5 of Swords and the Hermit are two crystals ... one is the pink of offspring ... seen on the trail ahead. The time of discovery ... the time of 'great relief and joy' ... behind the crystals is the figure of the hermit shining the light of illumination from atop the hill. In the Glastonbury Tarot ... the Hermit is represented by St Collen ... and legend has it that St Collen 'overheard two men outside his home discussing Gwyn (Gwyn Ap Nudd - Lord of The Underworld') and the Faeries. He cautioned them not to pay these demons any attention and the men replied that he had now offended Gwyn, who would seek retribution. Soon afterwards a faery messenger came to invite Collen to meet with Gwyn. Collen refused. ON subsequent days the messenger came until in the end Collen met with Gwyn'. This analogy is perhaps symbolic of what is to come ... where Gwyn is seen as 'The Lord of the place where MM is held' and the Faery are the abductors who took her and made her disappear effectively somewhere in the land of the underworld?

Finally the end of the crystal trail ends at the side of one of the statues made by the carpenter in the 8 Of Vesicas ... I guess therefore that after MM is safely returned, the public will never get to know the real truth ... it will be a fabrication to hide what really went on?
