Fly away

October 20: Maple seeds are hanging in pairs on the tree. They look like propellers. As they mature they split and are carried away by the wind. Where do I want the wind to take me?

Yes! That’s a nice question for me: Let’s fly away! What do the cards have to say about that. I need Strength from the Legacy of the Divine Tarot. In this card the woman is a sensual as the cats in her company. Not an innocent maiden dressed in white. The cats as well as the woman are all a part of me. I identify the great beautiful cats as my inner turmoil; my selfish passions and desires, my shadow. The woman is my higher self, who has become one with her inner cat. She has touched each beast on its forehead and gives them a spark of enlightenment. And that settles it for me: No flying away today. I will fly away in my mind, in my creativity, in my writing, in my books but not physically. I have to control my urge to fly free because I want to take my responsibilities serious. Don’t get me wrong; I know I am where I’m supposed to be and I love with whom I am and where I am. But there's always that dreamy longing…. Perhaps another time or another life but not now, not yet.
Today I am going to do some serious journal writing in Dutch. Being rather absorbed by this blogging thing, I've neglected this passion of mine far too long. Sometimes I catch myself thinking in English J So I let the winds of my imagination carry me to where ever that will be ...

  2. What an inspiring, enchanting image! Strength is often one of my favorite cards in any deck, and this one is exquisite. I really enjoyed your interpretation and comments about your "inner cat." I definitely have one of those, as well as four "outer cats" who allow me to live with them.

    1. Thanks you for stopping by! Your comment has made me think some more about my inner cat. This particularly Strength card suddenly reminds me of both the Egyptian goddesses Bast and Sekhmet which I hold dearly.
      How lovely to have four cats in you house.They "allow you" (lol) They seem like royalty :)
