Just to be different, and I have never been one to worry about that, I ask the cards, this morning, how today's lunch will go. The reason I ask is because I am having lunch with my FAMILY, and 'tis the season, for all the relatives you have not seen for a nice while, to show up and it can turn into quite an entertaining venture. And since I am a believer that our family and friends from "the other side" tend to show up at any gathering, no doubt for entertainment purposes only (!!!) it can be rather interesting. So, I ask my cards, today I used the beautiful Guilded Tarot, how our lunch will go, I got great cards (suprisingly!) the 9 of cups, the Ace of Wands, the 6 of Cups. Something I have been wishing for, manifests today, one person stands out, is highlighted, happily, and this is a great time and a very happy memory. Background info: I have not seen my father for some time, he lives a distance from me and he and his wife will be here, meeting with me and my 3 renegade children and 2 darling grandchildren, for lunch. In great anticipation of this, I franticically scavenged the family archives for every old photo I could find, to make my father the coolest Family Scrapbook, as he claims to have no family pictures (there could be a good reason for that, a shredder perhaps?) So, I am anxious to give him this much laboured upon gift. So, this Ace of Wands stands out, I am a believer that the Spirit world is all around us and often show up and make themselves known, and love the family scenero.Cheap entertainment at our expense? So, I ask, WHO is this Ace of Wands person, and I lay out several cards and I get not 1 person, but 3 in Spirit that will be here today. The Ace of Wands, and the 4 of Pentacles come up together: My Uncle Leroy, he was an Aries, fire sign,his birthday had the 4's in it, born April (4)-14-of 1924, and the next male energy, Ace of Swords, with the 8 of Pentacles, another male, My Grandfather, Roy, he was an Aquarius, born Jan. 28, 1894, died when he was 80, ( hence the 8's) and then the Chariot comes in with the 5 of Pentacles, and another ace, the Ace of Pentacles, female energy, my grandmother Tashie, on that card I drew the Magician, someone with long silver hair holding 4 things, she had long silver hair and had 4 children, my father the baby, he and a sister Rosella still with is. The Sun card popped out by these cards...she is happy and was always the Power source of the family, very independent and enterprising woman, that actually rasied me, so she would be a source of 'warmth and talent' for me. The 5 of Pentacles had shown up, and I lay out another, I get the 5 of Cups, then the 5 of Wands and the 5 of Swords....All those 5's make me nervous. Fives can mean conflict, difficulties, separation. I lay out another, and get the 9 of Pentacles and the 6 of Wands. So, this would mean it wasn't easy for them to be with us today, and this is one of those moments in time, that we will always remember, very special. It was not easy to get this branch of the family tree together, maybe we had some help from the other side? Oh, and I almost forgot, Uncle Leroys daughter Diana will be here, maybe that is why his energy comes through first and bringing the others with him. I may even take a picture and post it here, and see if the energy comes through in the picture. We shall see...I shall make note to tell you later what transpires, should be interesting......
