Tribal Message and Reading for the New Moon of October, 20ll

“We are here. We would ask you to be Here with us. This is the only way you can begin to transverse the coming light changes. The influx of energy, life, Earth changing vibration that will shake you to your core. This is not a negative vibration. It is as a glass of spring water where the aspects of earth have fallen to the bottom of the glass and you must shake the glass in order for the Earth sediment to rise up and combine with the clear essence. We hope this metaphor will work for you. The combining of Matter and Spirit is the Great Work that you are doing here on Earth at this time. Instead of ascending, away from matter, you are bringing the light of spirit into matter just by your existence. You are a receptacle. A conduit. This is what you came here to do. You do not have to understand. This is beyond human comprehension. Only live your life on a larger scale. Open. Open until you feel stretched to the fullest and then open more and find the ease of alignment with light. Swim in the moment , in presence Spend time in this place practice swimming in pure being. You call it meditation. We call it Being who you are. We appreciate all you are doing. We appreciate all that you strive for. We ask for less Striving and more just Being. You are We and so you are asking this of Yourself. Listen

We are as always, your servants in light"

Tarot Reading for the Tribe for the next 30 days.

This includes the portal opening of 11.11.11. Some say this is the shift to Age of Aquarius. Some say the Mayan calendar ends on Friday. Whatever the label, this is an intense time, a time of great opportunity.

A card for the spring water of our essence Two of Wands

This card, in the Thoth deck, is a card of pure force and fire, of pure beingness. It is force with no agenda or focus. It can be overwhelming and needs a container to be able to create. We are the container for this is fiery Divine spirit

A card for the earthly sediment of our humanness Queen of Pentacles

The perfect container for the fire of the Two of Wands, this very grounded, earthy Queen contains the fire as a slow burning intense life force with which she nurtures herself and so the Earth. This is about loving ourselves and so the Earth, for we are of the Earth.

A card for the action of shaking to combine the two. Queen of Swords

The Queen of Swords, in the Thoth deck, can no longer hide behind her persona and has taken off her mask. She says it how it is. No more white lies, no more skirting around the issue. The action needed is to be completely authentic, clear, honest, vulnerable and always aligned with Divine Will. This is a wonderful symbol of what is sweeping the country with the Occupy Wall Street movement.

What will be swept away, released, surrendered as we come into our Being?

Death Universe or World Ten of Wands

We must release our fear of Death, for we are already dying into a new humanity, the Universe card. We are releasing our sense of separateness into the whole and this is fearsome to many who feel that they will be swallowed by the whole. Americans, especially, are fiercely independent and don’t want to think of themselves as dependent or part of something greater. We must release the structures that have held down our fire (10 of Wands) and allow the shifting of the energies of Nature and Humankind. The old Aeon is dying into a New World never seen before. We are creating this together and can only have control when we give over to the Cosmic Will and begin to work as One.

How to Be instead of striving? The Hanged Man and the Ace of Cups

So perfect. The Hanged Man hangs himself upside down on purpose in order to be still enough to allow his transformation, to allow the Death of the ego. This is a card of allowing and surrendering to what you came here to do, part of which is to open up to the Love pouring in from the Universe (Ace of Cups) This influx of Divine Love is here to transform humanity. Meditate. Allow. Sit in Gratitude for Being here, upside down, out of control. Envision what you desire for yourself and the world

Advice from the Universe for next 30 days when we open the Portal to the New Age on 11.11.11 Ace of Pentacles

I love it. Aces are beginnings, raw energy straight from the cosmos. The Ace of Pentacles is about the vision, the idea of the New Earth that is being dictated to us through Light. With Aces all you can do is open to the energy. It is big. It is unfocused energy that WE are here to focus. We can create whatever WE want.

This month meditation and reflective stillness are a must. Do not ask why or what, just open, release and surrender to your circumstances. Be a Queen, that is, confident in your greatness, in your ability to withstand whatever comes, confident of a positive outcome. On November 11, spend time in meditation envisioning what you want for yourself and the world.

As always I encourage you to do this reading for yourself personally and I welcome questions and comments.

I asked for a message for my Tribe for the New Moon of September/October

"We would speak to you of your words, words like: shouldn't, couldn't, won't, and can't. These words are the key to opening the door to an inner vision of what is truly real, what exists beyond what you are experiencing. The idea that: "This won't work." "This can't happen." "This couldn't be true" is a resistance to what Is. Sitting with what truly Is, is the first and most important step in the process of evolving your language to a positive vibration, so that you may attract a better world for yourself and others. This is why we suggest meditation as a practice for sitting with yourself accepting whereever you are, accepting your circumstances. We are sure you know that nothing can truly move on or change until there is acceptance. This is where your idea of forgiveness comes from. It is a forgiving of the circumstances that will enable you to swim upwards to a more expansive view of the situation, helping you to find answers to your questions. You have limited yourselves with your resistance to what is by holding on to hate, the past, what was and even by holding on to what you think is true, thinking that the reality you are experiencing is all there is. Very limiting. You are leaving out so much that could be utilized for you and other's happiness and peace of mind. We ask that you spend a few minutes each day just Being, practice accepting all your circumstances and then watch the miracle of acceptance transform with the freeing up of your vision of what is possible. When one is saying, can't, won't, shouldn't, one is literally blind, at a dead end. This is the perception of your three dimensional world, all these endings, the idea that there is nothing more. Oh, my dears, there is so much more. Practice opening to More without knowing what that More is. You do not have to Know anything. Just open up to Possibility.

We leave you with Love, the key to this opening."

From Carolyn: This message is so much the message of the The Star card in the tarot. In this card a naked woman kneels on the earth as she channels source energy. Her vulnerability is the resullt of the Tower card, a card of destruction,so the Star card is about the place we come to when we feel we have lost everything. But, by losing everything we gain ourselves, for we are now free to connect our larger, Universal Self. So the card's key words are Faith, which brings Hope, which allows us to Accept, which open us up to gifts we had not been able to imagine before.

Reading for the Tribe at the New Moon of September/October 2011

1. As we head into Fall, into darkness again, what will warm us in the colder days to come? What positive energy is arriving? Three cards

Queen of Cups /eight of Wands / Three of Swords

Circumstances will force us within to Feel on a deep level, thinking from our Hearts which will connect us, literally change our brain waves(Eight of Wands) forcing us to look at our deeper psyche(Three of Swords) and clear, clear, clear the pain and struggle in our hearts. A great gift which will make more room for light and expansion.

2. How, when our world seems to be getting darker on all fronts, how to stay connected to the light and love available to us so that we can be a bright Star to ourselves and to those who are feeling afraid and lost? Three cards

The Devil / Five of Swords /Nine of Swords

We need to share our own difficulties with others, our pain, our struggles, but not through telling our stories of pain and struggle over and over again. The need is to witness ourselves, observe the ego voices in our heads, to listen to the old messages (Five of Swords), look at the shouldn'ts, the cant's, the won'ts, to see how we are limiting ourselves (The Devil) with our attachment to our stories of suffering, of doing it right, following orders, disallowing, not accepting, and self-cruelty (Nine of Swords). This self-flagellation is not helpful but only keeps us safe from our growing pains. Get it all out in the open. Be vulnerable. Stop hiding behind the pain.

3. What will challenge us as we continue to open? What might limit our opening?

Ten of Pentacles / Two of Cups / Three of Wands / The Universe

Our continuing need for material security(Ten of Pentacles) is wearing us down and we need to be traveling light for the journey ahead. Our focus needs to shift from the material to loving relationships, practicing a pure heart space(Two of cups) so that we can begin to imagine and bring in the divine plan(Three of Wands) of becoming our complete Selves(The Universe). The complete Self is our divine self living in our human body creating heaven on earth. (-:

4. Advice for us in the coming days?

Six of Swords

This is a very different sword card from the fives, threes and nines of the reading. In the Six of Swords, the mind is being used for its original purpose as an instrument of Divine mind, using our minds to create and solve and bring in higher wisdom. So the Universe is asking you to center yourselves in your hearts, think and speak from your hearts and listen to your Divine Self.

This reading is about becoming more authentic by first allowing ourselves to be where we are without pushing or beating ourselves up, then to listen to the messages we are receiving from the ego and begin to separate and listen to our higher Self so that we can begin to relax and be the beings of light and love what we truly are.

Try this reading out for just yourself.

I welcome comments, questions, as always
