Mediumship and Beyond

We are now back home from travelling in BC Canada. It is a wonderful place and we had many adventures which included visiting an awesome Buddhist Temple. Much more about this later in the week.

We saw 2 live wild Black Bears in a place on Vancouver Island, named Nanaimo. The first was a very young one who just dashed across the road in front of our car and disappeared into the edge. A little further down the road a much larger, mummy sized bear did the same thing.

Our trip has been filled with exciting things and I will be writing about them on this blog. Keep tuning in.

To all those who have sent in comments whilst I have been away from from my laptop,  I have not yet had time to respond to them yet but will be doing so shortly.

Ribbon readings are a favourite of mine. I have a bunch of coloured ribbons which have been in my possession a very long time now. Though it is not the ribbons, but the colours which I actually read.

I have devised my own meanings and methods for using the ribbons over the years and I get very good results from using them. It helps me to relax by looking at the colours and feeling the ribbons, and the sitter relaxes too.

I usually begin by asking the sitter to choose a certain number of the ribbons, paying particular attention to the colours. I then start my reading by giving meanings for their choice of colours and combinations.

My colour reading always developes into a mediumistic reading, during which I communicate directly with the spirits of my sitter’s loved ones. My own Guardian Angel will come through to assist in the process and we all have a great time.

Like all my spiritual work, this type of reading is very spiritually rewarding. The sitter benefits greatly from the partnership of medium and guide and, form the colour reading.

When I use ribbons in my workshops my students always enjoy themselves and we get great results even from the very new students. They are greatly encouraged by the positive outcomes.

Tarot: a set of special playing cards used for fortune telling – Oxford English Dictionary

I find the subject of the Tarot very intriguing. There are many readers of the cards with many methods of reading them. I have yet to find two the same. Each reader will spend years perfecting their craft, although a simple spread can soon be mastered.

Each reader has their own preference for particular packs. There are hundreds of different ones, from the very old fashioned to the very modern day versions.  If you decide to become a tarot reader you will soon find your own favourite. Most are very colourful and intricate.

There are different spreads to help the reader find the right information for you, according to what kind of advice you may need. These range from a simple 3 card spread to very compicated ones which use most of the usual 78 cards.

There are two parts to each pack. The Major Arcana, of which there are 22, and the Minor Arcana which has 56. Both have their uses, and are often used together, but each Arcana can be used alone.  There are 4 suits to the minor arcarna, 10 plus the court cards of each suit. The court cards are usually the King, Queen, Knight and Page.

Although some packs use slightly differing names for their court cards, they are really the same and have the same meanings and values.

I find that often in a reading the sitter will be able to put all the information given by the reader in context with their present circumstances. I also find that the information can be pre empted by the sitter, or indeed pre determined.

Choose your reader with care and ask friends for recommendations of readers. As always, my advice is never pay out more than you can easily afford and go with an open mind. Never try to live your life on the basis of a tarot reading.
