What are Tarot Cards?

bTarot cards act as a divinational tool to help us to identify past, present and future events, changes, influences and outcomes in our own lives and other people’s. The cards represent these with pictorial energies that provide us with senses, feelings and energies that help us to interpret the cards.

A usual deck of tarot cards consists of 78 cards and these cards are split into two categories; The MAJOR ARCANA and the MINOR ARCANA. The Major Arcana consist of 22 cards whilst the Minor Arcana contain the rest of the deck and are split into four suits; wands, cups, swords and pentacles.

Colors in Dreams and Their Meaning

Author: Daniel Zoleta

bDreams in colour are rarer in comparison to others. The question of colour in dreams has been proved of absorbing interest; and there has been much research into the subject. We often claim to have dreamed in colour but when we are questioned we fail to clearly tell which colours we have dreamed in or what was the colour of a particular object or so. This, to some extent, is because of our tendency to forget our dream once we are awakened.

Every colour possesses its own symbolism for everyone of us. Colours play an important psycho-physiological role in our daytime lives. Hereunder we are giving details in regard to the different colours we see in our dreams and their significance.

Red: Lighter shades of red can be representative of excitement (especially sexually), passion, energy, and life. However, deeper or "weighed down" shades of red may be indicitive of anger and vengence. Notice how the stop sign is red; possibly a hint from your subconscious to cease and desist in a certain activity?

Orange: Orange is considered to be a color of warmth, thoughtfulness, wisdom and sociability. Muddier shades of orange may be representative of pride or vanity, while golden orange denotes self-control.

Yellow: A bright yellow color represents "sunniness," joy, optimism, and intuition and mental stimulation. Muddier shades of yellow may mean blocked intuition, betrayal, treachery, and faithlessness. This color may be used by your subsconscious to help ease you out of depression.

Green: This is the color of nature. It is also the color of development and growth. Lighter shades of green tending towards blue represent healing. Darker, muddier shades of greens represent envy and greed, as well as a stubborn and/or self-opinionated attitude. This color is also representative of money.

Blue: Blue is a cool, calming color, often used for relaxation and meditation. It is a very spiritual color, and is representative of truth, intellect, and justice. Muddy shades of blue may denote depression or moodiness. When this color appears in your dreams, it is probably a message from your subconscious telling you to relax and take things more slowly.

Violet: Darker shades of violet may denote a person who feels misunderstood or has obstacles to overcome. It too is a spiritual color, and brighter shades help inspire and stimulate, especially in relation to dream activity.

Black: Because this color is often regarded as the color of death, its appearance in our dreams may represent the death of old ideas or change. Another possible explanation is that it represents a hidden or rejected aspect of the dreamer. It is the color of mystery, the unconscious, and sometimes even protection.

White: White is often regarded as the color of purity and truth. Seeing this in your dreams may be a message from your subconscious telling you to regard the truth of a certain situation. It is also the color of completeness and innocence.

Pendulum Divination

HOW DO PENDULUMS WORK?

bThere are many theories behind this. However, my personal belief is that small muscle spasms in the hand vibrate the pendulum to allow it to swing and rotate in a certain direction. You are probably thinking “but that just means I am subconsciously moving it.” And my answer to this is yes, you are right! Our subconscious or innerself knows what’s best for us and knows the answers to the questions we may have and we can use the pendulum to communicate with our innerself to seek the answers to our questions.  

HOW DO I CHOOSE A PENDULUM?

You are best trying out a few pendulums to see which ones call to you. Once you know how to use a pendulum, you will be able to test them out to see which ones swing/rotate best for you.

Some people think that crystal pendulums should be used for healing and divination and metallic pendulums should be used for dowsing. However, I have witnessed many different pendulums used in many different situations and all have worked perfectly fine. It is just a question of finding a pendulum that works best for you.

HOW DO I USE A PENDULUM?

Hold the pendulum in the palm of your hand and empower it. Empower it by clearing your mind and concentrating on the pendulum. Speak to it in your mind or out loud and say something like: “I cleanse you of any past energies and wish you to answer and guide me with the questions I have to ask.”

Next, drape the chain over the back of your hand and hold it securely with you thumb, allowing enough free chain for the pendulum to swing and rotate freely. Now you can either place the pendulum a couple of inches above a pendulum mat or over the palm of your other hand. Ask the pendulum to show you yes and the pendulum will swing or rotate in a certain direction. Then ask it to show you no and the pendulum should swing or rotate in another direction. These movements will indicate your yes and no answers. However, recheck frequently with your pendulum as your yes and no will sometimes alter with time.

To get the feel for your pendulum, ask questions that you know the answers to; “Am I female?” or “Is it daytime?” etc. Once you are comfortable with this, you can ask the questions you want to know the answers to.

Some do’s and Don’ts:

DO use a pendulum if you wish to develop your psychic abilities but do not feel you are getting anywhere with it. You will be surprised just how accurate a pendulum can be and how quick it can be to connect with your innerself.

DO say thank you to your pendulum after using it.

DON’T ask vague questions. The more specific the question you ask, the more accurate the answer. For example, if you ask your pendulum “Am I going to win the lottery?” It will probably say “yes” but this means you will probably only win £5!

ADVANCED USES & TECHNIQUES

Once you have developed your basic skills, there are lots of workshops and books that can help advance your technique to include dowsing and healing.

Ouija Boards


bThe two popular questions I am always asked when someone is interested in a ouija board is 1: Do they work? 2. Are they safe?
 
Both questions involve the same answer, it depends on the group of people using them.
 
1. Ouija boards will work if you have a good energy arouind the board (usually 3 - 4 people) and it helps to meditate a little before you use the board to help raise your energy vibrations and connect with spirit.
 
It may take a while for you to get any response from the board, even months, and even when you do, the answers you get may not make any sense.
 
However, if you approach the board as a serious form of mediumship, and you perservere, it should work for you.
 
2. There are so many arguments whether these boards are good or evil, so I am only going to give you my PERSONAL OPINION.
 
I think that ouija boards are like any tool; it is the person who uses it who influences its use.
 
I always say that if you ask a silly question, you will get a silly answer. So respect the board and the spirits who come through and NEVER EVER USE TH BOARD AFTER DRINKING.
 
How would you like it if you were called upon from the Spirit Realms to communicate with the living, to be teased and taunted, or asked stupid things... You would want to say horrible things back no?!?!
 
With this in mind, there are a few CAUTIONS I have for using a board.
 
I was told by a clairvoyant that a ouija board is like a radio, it picks up ANYTHING, so you can pick up more lower, menevolant spirits who want to trick you. Therefore, it is important to raise your spiritual protection and work closely with your spirit guides when using the board.
 
Make sure that you use the board with people that you trust and I would strongly use the board with a good medium.
 
 
My personal experiences with a board have always been positive and good. I have used th board several times and made contact with a spirit guide and loved ones that have passed on. I have never had a bad message come through. However, I have always used the board with people that I trust and worked with my guides to ensure my protection was raised and only those who walked in light and love would come forward.
