Today’s card
is the Sun from the Druidcraft Tarot. We see a boy riding a horse on a summer's day. The sun is directly behind
his head so we can only see its rays. This card is about everything joyful and
happy we can think of. It's also about
confidence and vitality, about having the courage to put yourself and your
talents out there, so everyone can see how
magnificent you truly are. But too often we don’t; feel like this and we are tempted to chase this illusive happiness in the outer world. We buy things, we eat things
and yes they do make us happy, for a while, and then we have to hunt for more.
So my question
for the Celtic Lenormand was: where to find a more lasting joy and I was quite
surprised by the cards I pulled:
Lily + Cross
+ bear
In the
center there is the cross; for me the card of spiritual beliefs and faith. In this
context I see the lily as a symbol of harmony and inner peace. The bear is all
about strength and courage and standing up for who you are and what you
believe. These cards tell me that instead of chasing happiness, I should turn inside to my spiritual
beliefs and find there the inner peace and strength to bask in that sunlight
which is a beautiful symbol of the Divine light shining from without and within every moment of our life. (whether we are aware of it or not)
He does seem to radiate from within, doesn't he? And what great Lenormand cards to pull to reinforce that message!
ReplyDeleteYes it is a distinct difference from the Rider Waite version with the sun looking down on the child.
DeleteWhat a lovely message you received in answer to the Sun card. I love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you A. I was quite happy with it myself too :D
DeleteI like that Sun. And the radiance does appear to shine from the rider instead of shining down on us as in RWS card. So take your glorious self and ride on out there. Explore the world from your divine perspective.
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn! Often it is easier said than done but having the right mindset is very helpful :D
DeleteThose 2 decks work together beautifully! That Cross card is gorgeous, as is your interpretation. What a wonderful message :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Carol and yes, they do indeed. I've waited so long for this lenormand deck to be published.
DeleteWhat a beautiful reading, Ellen! I love the message to look inward, to your sense of faith and your connection with divinity. I also see that peace comes from finding joy, even as you show the strength necessary to live through life's many (and sometimes challenging) lessons :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Chloe! It felt so good to play with my lennies again and I was quite surprised by this message
