Astrology-Sign:

Gemini Rules 

“Holding hands is a big deal”

Gemini rules hands, arms, lungs and shoulders. these are all pairs that must operate in unison, if the body is to be well coordinated. Also, we use our hands and arms to express love by touching and holding. Many people cannot communicate effectively without the use of their hands. Domestic life is your highest priority this month and will find comfort in the home, or in home related activities.

Tarot Card of the Month 

June represents (Key 6) The Lovers.

The Gemini Twins card is an obvious reference to partnership and marriage, while signifying equality in relationships. This card is saying that in any relationship scenario, be it love or friendship, you must regard any upsets as a challenge to be overcome not just as a barrier. ~ Step by Step Tarot. Terry Donaldson.

Tarot Card Symbology

The tree behind Adam symbolises the signs of the zodiac. The flames on the left of the tree trunk represent the five senses and those on the right symbolise the body and the original planets. Behind Eve, is the tree of knowledge. The serpent in the tree, the kundalini force, giving them power to create. 

This Explains It All  

The connections between numerology, astrology and the Tarot have been tested through years of research and application.

IT ALL ADDS UP

There are no coincidences. There IS an order in the universe and here is a key that can put your world into logical perspectives. Numbers are also synthesised with Tarot keys, planets and signs and decals of the zodiac.

THIS IS A BRIEF PROFILE ABOUT:

Pamela Colman-Smith

NUMEROLOGY:

In numerology  Pamela’s birth path represents: ’33’ ~ The Spiritual Avatar.

MEANING:

‘The Spiritual Avatar’ is considered to be a love vibration raised to the highest level “Compassion’

’TEACHER OF TEACHERS’

‘33’ as a number is the versatile, creative, resourceful and imaginative. Although it may require self sacrifice and sometimes martyrdom. Otherwise known as the ‘Teacher of Teachers’ It is the number of the reformer with a strong desire to make the world a better place in which to live. 

Although, there are risks in living up to such a high vibration. In the negative ’33’ can be emotionally unstable and will sacrifice themselves for any cause. The danger is, becoming a doormat for others.

ASTROLOGY-SIGN:

Pamela was born on 16.2.1878 under the star sign of Pisces.

The Original Tarot Card as illustrated by Pamela (Pious Pixie)

 

THE TAROT CARD

I think that the tarot card, that relates mostly to the spirit of Pamela would be: 

THE EMPRESS

Pamela was a self confessed lover and creatrix of beautiful things.

(Key 3) The EMPRESS  card symbolises the sub conscious mind.

It is a reference to that memory which produces growth through the imagination. The Empress card shows that the way forward, is to develop and put to use your own creativity. Your own ability to make things grow. ~ Step by Step Tarot. Terry Donaldson.

The EMPRESS ruled over Pamela’s own personal creativity. It is directly related to the emotions in which this creative potential is rooted. Without our ability to see, feel and to experience the different emotions of love, pain, fulfilment and rejection, we would all be dead as doornails, at least as far as the EMPRESS is concerned.

The real challenge is to learn to accept all of our feelings.

 

THE EMPRESS CARD SYMBOLOGY

Look closely at the card. The trees, dress and wheat symbolise the ripening that takes place in the intuitive mind. The stream is the life stream, the stream of consciousness. The twelve stars on her crown are the twelve zodiac signs or the twelve months. thus representing time itself. In the same vein it takes time to bring our desires into manifestations.

We live in a society in which the EMPRESS is heavily repressed.

I believe that this reading sums her up to a ’T’

Good Heavens

GOOD HEAVENS 
You mean … that happened back when?
but why didn’t she say something?
… when he said nothing then?..  

Each vibrant painting depicts a symbolic story,
bestowing kingdoms of good treasures and glory.
She began with a word and the word was emotion,
each illustration, imbued with a spiritual potion.

The colours, the liveliness, the right actions,
each story holds human divination satisfaction.
From morning to night, creating from source,
each card, a contemplative signpost for cause.

As genius in the design of costume and arts, 
a deep symbolic wisdom, is held in each card.
Many have walked within her graceful steps,
the Empress of righteous thoughts… she kept.

Today all praise her eyes and ears of truth, 
however, back then, her talents were rebuked.
Rider and Waite held copyrights to her fame,
what a pity, they never testified of her name. 

Incredulously. He, had been her best friend,
embarrassing, is how the ‘Rider Waite’ fate ends.
PAMELA COLMAN-SMITH; Artist of esoteric mysteries, 
aka *PIOUS PIXIE, the designer in tarot card history. 

In memory of her work in faith and labour of love, 
in patience, her talents, elected from heaven above.
In dedication, as I hold my hand on my navel,
I shall bow to her prophecies of mystical tales.

ALONE - 
Alone and in the midst of men,
Alone 'mid hills and valleys fair;
Alone upon a ship at sea;
Alone -- alone, and everywhere.

O many folk I see and know,
So kind they are I scarce can tell,
But now alone on land and sea,
In spite of all I'm left to dwell.

In cities large -- in country lane,
Around the world -- 'tis all the same;
Across the sea from shore to shore.
Alone -- alone, for evermore.
~Pamela Colman-Smith

OUR SPIRIT. KNOWS 
She stood. In contemplation there.
She would. Feel it in the brisk of air. 
She could. See beyond stars in sky.
She knew. A change had come nigh.

The light haze. As sun shone through.
Trunks of gums. Shadowing purple hues.
Rough ground. Covered in brown bark. 
Humming of insects. Listening in. Hark. 

She walked about. Scrubland bush.
Listening deeply. To the seasons hush.
She saw. The Pelicans. Migrating flight.  
She saw. Native flora. Sprouting to life.

She saw. The clouds .Were a scudding.
Grass Trees. And Red Banksia. Budding.
She could see. By the flight. Of ants;

Congratulations to indigenous elder, artist and educator Dr Miriam-Rose Ungunmerr-Baumann for being named the 2021 Senior Australian of the Year.  She has dedicated her life to giving Aboriginal children the skills to navigate western and traditional culture.

‘Dadirri’ is an ancient living practice that supports spiritual well-being. Like the soft underbelly of a crocodile, this is the gentle, quiet, deep spring that is in all of us; where our sense of identity, belonging, purpose and connection is explored, founded and nurtured. As it is in me, it is also in others. It is the Indigenous gift to all Australians’

The Silence Echoes

It is Anzac Day in Australia today.

This repost is in tribute to all the wonderful people and animals

who risk their lives for us

 

LEST WE FORGET

 

Thank you

SILENCE ECHOES

Should I end at the beginning?
Or begin at the end?
Today being a significant day in remembrance
Of our Australians and New Zealanders
Who lost their lives or suffered for their new generations to defend.
 
Was the sound of the “Last Post” a new hope?
Or a reminder of our great loss
A fortunate day now for some
But how many lives have these terrible wars cost?

Conflicts and battles where our innocent women and men,
who were armed and sent in to hell to protect all at home and defend.
 
Today at Kings Park in Perth, a Memorial Service will be held
To commemorate our brave ANZAC warriors
As a tribute to their bravery, courage and strength.
 
The Flame of Remembrance will always be burning bright

Never to be diminished

As a guiding Beacon of everlasting light and life
 
Words can never express,
For how could we ever forget
Those battles that were fought with courage, bravery and honourable intents.
I have no more words… as the silence echoes back
Reverberating along the Whispering Wall
 
Thank you.
 
Lest we should ever, ever forget.

THE LAST BATTLE 
 

 If it should be that I grow frail and weak,
 and pain should keep me from my sleep,
 Then will you do what must be done,
 ‘For this ~ the last battle ~ can’t be won.
 

 You will be sad, I understand,
 But don’t let my grief, stay your hand,
 For on this day, more than the rest,
 Your love and friendship must stand the test.
 

 We have had so many happy years,
 You wouldn’t want me to suffer so,
 When the time comes, please let me go.
 

 Take me to where to my needs they’ll tend.
 Only, stay with me till the end.
 And hold me close and speak to me,
 until my eyes no longer see.
 I know in time, you will agree,
 It is a kindness you do for me.
 

 Although my tail, it’s last has waved,
 From pain and suffering, I have been saved.
 Don’t grieve that it must be you,
 who has to decide this thing to do.
 

 We’ve been so close, we two for all these years,
 Don’t let your heart, hold any tears. 
 

 ~ Unknown. 

We are relieved that Roxy is back at home. Her sister Zoonie has a big smile on her face, wagging her tail happily, for the first time this week. I swear she knows that her sister is back here with us.

Our little gypsy princess is now sleeping peacefully, in our library, which was her favourite place.

#Euthanasia: Is the hardest decision you’ll ever have to make, but because something is hard, it doesn’t mean it’s not right. In fact, some of the most meaningful things we do in life are difficult — raising children, honouring our responsibilities, and most importantly, being with loved ones during their last moments.

Thank you Passing Paws Pet Crematorium and Dr Andrea, at Vet Visits for taking good care of our dear little girl Roxy Healing.

‘The happy memories of her life shared, are what endure’

And so this is our story about the process we went through, with the healing and grieving that led us to peace.

Happy Birthday

Dear Mom, 

Happy Birthday in Heaven

It’s been thirteen long years, 
since you left and went away.
I still love and think about you,
each and every day.

The love that we shared,  
was an unbreakable bond.
I hold you safely in my heart, 
knowing you will never be gone.

Your love, kindness and caring, 
laughs, chats and sharing.
There can be no comparing.

Sadness hits me harder today,
as I remember your birth day. 

  

“Everything is temporary, but love 
outlives us all”

https://justsayins.wordpress.com/ancestry-and-cultural.../

“Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.”― Jamie Anderson

leave your bones, like
salt in the sea; they become
part of you;

Mystic Visions

Our Angel

 Tomorrow, we lay our little girl down to rest,
 in knowing, that for her, we did our very best.
 The joy, the love, the happy moments, 
 memories sweet, to keep our hearts going. 
 

 The best days of our lives,
 were while Roxy was by our side. 
 The greatest love that we shared,
 in knowing that she’ll always be there.
 

 To live, to love, to hope,
 to see her again, will be how we cope.
 

 Sleep peacefully, our beautiful angel

A Bitter Pill
 

    

Cupidity

 ON VALENTINE’S DAY  
 We can dream of a handsome hero,
 like latin lover; Rudolph Valentino.
 Amorous lover, knight on white steed,
 moonlight serenades; ’Oh yes please’.
 

 Having high morals and scruples in life,
 impassioned, to do what was right.
 Sensitive new age man, before his time,
 gentleman of love, passion and kind.
 

 Sexy Rudy won women, with intense stare.
 a mannerism of lust, he had that flare.
 Philosophical and introspective,
 following his own aspirational objectives.
 

 He believed in the possibility of his dreams,
 reaching for the stars, to follow those themes.
 Rudy must have been a great man to know,
 a hot erotic actor when silent movies, were a ‘go’.
 

 We lost him at the tender age of 31.
 but happily, his romantic cupidity, lives on.
 Victoria Healing ~ 14.2.2018
 CUPIDITY  

‘Romance isn’t a science, it’s a heart’

Valentino was a sex symbol of the 1920s, known in Hollywood as the Latin Lover. His premature death at the age of 31 caused mass hysteria among his fans.
