Another Look at Ukraine

We look again at Ukraine with intuitive eyes. We look beyond the media smokescreen and gaze at what is really happening there. We see a new structure and a new society being created out of the old. The corrupt ones are on the outside of this structure and not involved in the day to day running of the new society any more. There is a different face in control, an unknown person. And it is not a young globalist leader, or anyone under the dominion of the evil ones. The new elements are being put in place under the smokescreen of the so called invasion. This was always the intention. It has been planned this way. Like a rotting yew tree ... the new tree is growing inside of the bough structure of the old tree. It is not on view. Limited media presence in Ukraine ensures the areas that are being changed are out of sight. The reversed images reveal that the bio labs and the other nasty enterprises are being destroyed ....
 

A Look At Ukraine

This is our first 'look' at the Ukraine 'event' by way of intuitive means. We see the crazy notions out out there by the elite owned world MSM on the far left of the spread. Next is a perfect representation of the 'actor cum comedian' leader of Ukraine. The reality of the situation is represented next with the two individuals surrounded by the swords ... the world's general public being forced to choose between the character 2nd left or the character who is fourth from the left, which ironically is a perfect representation of the so called villain of the piece (Putin). The middle card is perfectly located trapped between the two sides of the media spun cover story.

The card on the far right is the advice to take ... turn it all upside down. Read the opposite to the spin being forced on everyone by the elite and their media monsters. The truth is an total inversion of the lies being peddled. The leader of Ukraine is a Nazi scrote, and not the good guy being portrayed. Ukraine is not in the distress being peddled to the world. Putin is in truth the good guy of the tale. Its hard to believe with the story after story published in the media. Its a total fabrication and a mass brainwashing exercise to hide what is really going on ....the great rest is dead in the water and the last strong hold of the psychotic elite just happens to be in .... Ukraine.

We will get to that in the next spread.
 

5 of Cups - Tarot Card of the Day

None of us should feel too good when the 5 of Cups, The Lord of Disappointment, turns up in our readings. It almost always means that somebody somewhere is going to make us feel let down or sad about something. And often when that happens we can end up giving ourselves a hard time, and hurting ourselves unnecessarily. But there's one important thing to consider when we get disappointed - we feel that way because an expectation we had is not fulfilled, whether by ourselves or by somebody else. So if you get this card coming up often, it's worth taking a good look at your expectations. Are they unrealistic? Are they geared to the abilities and characteristics of the person you hold them of? Or do you expect too much - this is an attitude we tend to apply most viciously to ourselves. Are you expecting more than you have a right to? Are you expecting things that the person in question -yourself or somebody else - is simply not able to provide? If the answer to any of the above is yes, then if you change your expectation, you'll stop being disappointed.

When this card comes up, it warns us that either we have failed to resolved an old difficulty, or that - realistic or not - our expectations are about to be disappointed. Often this will happen in an emotional situation (because this is a Cup card) but can happen elsewhere in our lives too, because disappointment itself is an emotion and therefore belongs to Cups. Aside from locating where the problem lies, there's rarely much that can be done except preparing ourselves to accept the inevitable consequence of being alive - into each life a little rain must fall etc.etc.

One thing that is always worth bearing in mind with a card like this is that the feelings which arise when it occurs often scare us into failing to take another risk, failing to make another effort, hiding away where we can't be disappointed again. (Angel Paths)

Daily Merlin for Week Ending 17th July 2016

The central issue this week is insecurity and instability. Be resolute and determined,do not let any negative perceptions control your thinking. What you think this week will be manifested into your life path in the weeks that follow.

Work situations need to be the focus of attention. As one door firmly closes, what is the new one that opens? There has to be one, but it is not evident. Frustration must not give way to panic. Remain creative and humorous. Do not give way to the demands of the Emperor intellect. Do not let your inner critic rule the roost here.

What has been taken away suddenly can so easily be given back. Be patient and read the signs. Take the only option you have and do not be concerned about any temporary situations.

Remember life is an illusion. Your surroundings will only react to how you are reacting to your surroundings, They are a reflection of what is going on inside of you. Use this mirror this week to assess where you are in you life and what adjustments you need to make - Matthew James

Tarot Card of the Day: The Magician

Traditionally, the Magus is one who can demonstrate hands-on magic -- as in healing, transformative rituals, alchemical transmutations, charging of talismans and the like. A modern Magus is any person who completes the circuit between heaven and Earth, one who seeks to bring forth the divine 'gold' within her or himself.

At the birth of Tarot, even a gifted healer who was not an ordained clergyman was considered to be in league with the Devil! For obvious reasons, the line between fooling the eye with sleight of hand, and charging the world with magical will was not clearly differentiated in the early Tarot cards.

Waite's image of the Magus as the solitary ritualist communing with the spirits of the elements -- with its formal arrangement of symbols and postures -- is a token of the freedom we have in modern times to declare our spiritual politics without fear of reprisal. The older cards were never so explicit about what the Magus was doing. It's best to keep your imagination open with this card. Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by evolutionary forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul.

Travelling on his way, the Fool first encounters a Magician. Skillful, self-confident, a powerful magus with the infinite as a halo floating above his head, the Magician mesmerizes the Fool. When asked, the Fool gives over his bundled pack and stick to the Magician. Raising his wand to heaven, pointing his finger to Earth, the Magician calls on all powers; magically, the cloth of the pack unfolds upon the table, revealing its contents. And to the Fool's eyes it is as if the Magician has created the future with a word. There are all the possibilities laid out, all the directions he can take. The cool, airy Sword of intellect and communication, the fiery Wand of spirituality and ambition, the overflowing Chalice of Love and emotions, the solid Pentacle of work, possessions and body. With these tools, the Fool can create anything, make anything of his life. But here's the question, did the Magician create the tools, or were they already in the pack? Only the Magician knows - and on this mystery, our eloquent mage refuses to say a word.

The Tower

Angel Paths: 'There are many aspects of the Tower that should remind us of the lessons to be learned within the Death card. All life is change - we can either surrender to this, or fight against it. What the Tower teaches us is that the power of life is undeniable. We can learn our lessons the easy way - by being open and accepting; or we can do things the hard way, clinging to things and ideas that no longer work for us. In that case, life will come along and, like a hurricane, batter us with the winds of change till we submit! So...on a Tower day, we need to examine ourselves to identify the things to which we are clinging that no longer serve us well. We need to be alert to the concepts life itself presents us with. So this day could be one in which people talk relevantly to you, without knowing that they are doing that. Listen carefully for random symbols which will point you in the right direction. When the Tower rules, it is possible that unexpected events will take place that you hadn't seen coming. If so, remember that to resist change is to deny life, and bear in mind that life is eventually going to win this battle anyhow - so lie back, relax and accept. And keep your sense of humour close at hand!...read more>>>...

Tarot Card of the Day "Fortune"

Angel Paths: As the wheel of life turns, and we struggle to get to grips with it, gradually we learn the trick of getting things to go our way. Often we interpret this as luck - though we each make our own luck in life - good and bad! Fortune holds the secret of learning to harness the positive forces in life and to turn these to our advantage. The very first thing we have to accept is that what we send out is what we get back - its form may be slightly altered, but it remains the fruit of our initial seeding thought. The next thing we have to accept is that good fortune is limitless - you don't take it from somebody else by receiving it yourself. There's more than enough abundance to go around in this Universe. And finally, you have to open yourself to receive your share. Often we don't like to do this, for fear of disappointment or disillusionment. If we put our hopes on something and it doesn't materialise, does that mean we aren't 'good enough'? Rather than face that dichotomy, we often shut our minds altogether, with the result that we don't get the things we want and need...read more>>>...

Tarot Card of the Day - "Death"

Angel Paths: I wonder if there is a more-feared card in the Tarot deck? Yet Death is, in many ways, a hopeful and refreshing influence if only we will let it be. It is the major card for change and alteration in the entire deck. Since life itself changes constantly, in order to harmonise ourselves more completely with it, we too must be in a state of constant change - working toward our goals, attempting to fulfil our dreams and developing the quality of our spiritual understanding. When Death comes up as Card of the Day, the first question we need to ask ourselves is - what is it that needs to be changed or finished up? What situations have been lingering on well past their sell-by date? What should we have dealt with before, that this day challenges us to face and finish? Imagine, for a moment, that your life is a plot of land. If it is completely overgrown, covered with unwanted and untended undergrowth, you cannot plant something beautiful and fruitful in it can you? The Death card requires that we spend a bit of dedicated time cutting away the undergrowth, and clearing the debris so that our lives are clear and open, ready for fresh planting....read more>>>...

The Two of Cups

Angel Paths: And here we have the Lord of Love, a card of bliss, deep joyous love reciprocated fully and with great enthusiasm, a card of reconciliations and new growth! Here we see harmonious and contented exchanges of emotion, which vibrate with an ecstatic undercurrent of passion and heat. Because this card is a reflective and receptive one, there's an issue that people sometimes forget when reading it - to be truly loved, deeply treasured, valued highly by others, we must first and foremost strive to feel those things for ourselves. When we work toward loving ourselves, we hold our inner nature in high regard, treating it with deference and proper respect. When we see ourselves in that light, other people cannot help but respond to our personal sense of value. Furthermore, when we work to love ourselves, we release so many areas of self-doubt and uncertainty that we become infused by a new energy - and this we can lavish on others. The 2 of Cups is about engaging in a caring and tender fashion with our own needs, first and foremost. It isn't so much about achieving self-love, as about, in every single day of our lives, striving towards self-love. That action leads us into a positive, self-supportive and accepting approach to life. And also, when we stop wasting energy telling ourselves what's wrong with us, we have lots more energy to enjoy being who we are...read more>>>...

Daily Tarot - '9 of Cups'

On a day which is ruled by the Lord of Happiness, we need only open ourselves to the infinite blessings of the Universe, and we will be surrounded by warm happy loving energy. At its highest level, this card reminds us of the completely inexhaustible supply of love that flows continuously about us, and tells us to simply step forward and enjoy! In the hurly burly of modern life it's easy to forget to count our blessings. And in so doing, we lose sight of a very basic spiritual truth - love IS all around us. Beauty springs up in the most unexpected places. Radiance and wonder abound in this world of ours. Yes - sure, there's a lot of pain out there too. Sure, not everything may be as we wish it to be. Sure, we might hear a news report that does not fill us with faith and belief in the race. But we can look up to the sky....and there (no matter what the weather) we will see an image of pure perfection. We can study a flower, and we will see a miracle. We can look at our lives and be thankful for all the things that we're glad are present in it...read more>>>...

Daily Tarot - "The Six of Swords"

The Lord of Science appears in a reading when we have passed through a stormy or difficult time, and into the safety of a sheltered harbour, where we can recuperate, and consider the difficulties which have arisen around us. Often we will have passed through a period of dreadful confusion - and frequently a time of emotional suffering. But this card indicates that, at least for the moment, pressure has eased, and we can try to sort out what we really feel. Frequently we need first to rest until we feel refreshed, but eventually we will be required to assess events and make new decisions for our future. Because we will find ourselves seeing things more clearly, difficult and demanding decisions will be easier to make. We will find ourselves with a more clear overview of the issues we are facing. And we will be able to make choices which bring us peace of mind and happiness...read more>>>...

Tarot Inspiration for Today

Tarot Cards for Today - 'Six of Crescents'; 'Maker of Weapons'; 'Three of Spheres'; 'Seven of Weapons' ... tarot message for today reads ..."the latter part of 2012 now represents a period of action. By keeping your head above water and seeing the way ahead as the observer it is possible to create achievements. The signs point towards continuation of established success with more and more opportunities now being generated from an original concept or idea. Keep pushing, keep trying ..." Matthew James (Servants of the Light tarot deck)

The Prince of Wands

The person represented by the Prince of Wands will be an active, energetic person, with a warm and generous heart, and a good sense of humour. He will have a natural and infectious optimism about him, tackling every aspect of his life with enthusiasm and vigour. He will be friendly, gregarious and open in his attitudes, possessed with a very healthy sense of his own value, but also supportive and encouraging to others. You'll often come across him in working areas where healing, encouragement and development are involved. The apparently easy-going happy-go lucky exterior conceals a deeply rooted moral sense. At his best he typifies the 'shining white knight' principle - always ready to stand up for what is right, and good; willing to fight to protect those who are more vulnerable than himself...read more>>>...

Tarot Card of the Day - The Chariot

This is a card which contains within it great dynamism, strength and power. Often, when it comes up, it indicates a period where we feel we have struggled through a difficult and demanding time, battling against long odds to achieve the things that we need out of life. It does confirm that we have emerged victorious, though we may feel a bit battered and weary. So in one sense the Chariot marks the time of respite and peace after the battle is won. But it indicates something else very important too. After every battle, once we have rested and recuperated, it becomes necessary to begin a new flow of energy - we have to clean up the debris of the struggle, plan our next move, determine the direction we intend to move in now. But when the Chariot emerges it indicates something else as well - as a result of the difficulties and struggles now at an end, we shall need to change some of the features of our lives. So it also indicates big changes, and promises that these will be beneficial and rewarding, bringing further triumph and success with them...read more>>>...

Tarot Card Of The Day - "Lust"

This card is primarily about having a fascination and enthusiasm with the whole life process - delighting in the moment, observing both your surroundings and yourself on a minute by minute basis, engaging with life to the best of your abilities. We can often get distracted from taking proper notice of life....if we are worried, busy, stressed, rushed...it becomes all too easy to forget that our very existence is a miracle. We stop noticing beauty or joy...... we lose our ability to be both delighted and surprised at life. And this is a desperate shame, for life can become a constant and ever-changing flow of miracles, excitement and exhilaration. All that is required here is that we agree to allow it...and then pay right attention. Right attention is a challenging skill to develop but the effort invested pays enormous dividends once you have practised enough for this to become a habit. It means placing your attention in the moment, and then holding it there. By doing this you become infinitely aware, seeing, hearing and feeling things that would have otherwise slipped by unnoticed...read more>>>...

The Lovers

This is a lovely card, concerned with the harmonisation of opposites at all levels of being. At the highest level, the Lovers represents the marriage of the Emperor and the Empress - the archetypal union of male and female. Of course, one of the areas that this card therefore covers is that of emotional relationships. We've discussed often how, for love to grow and create change, it must be allowed to flow unhindered and free. If this is stopped, then love, like the water used symbolically to represent it so often, becomes stagnant and fetid. Ask yourself the question - have you been emotionally honest with yourself? Have you achieved genuine access to positive feelings about yourself? If not, then open up those doors and let yourself really see who you are. You might just get a pleasant surprise. And after all - if you don't like it at all, you can always move on tomorrow!! Affirmation: I love and accept myself...read more>>>...
