Readings and Meditations for Guidance. In the 'Ash' story the reading was for help in a situation that was felt to be difficult. The Medium [me] needed to talk to someone in the spirit world who was in authority on a subject that we knew nothing about. Just as on the platform the guide comes in as requested, it might be that the medium knows them or not, for instance the philosophy has a regular guide and perhaps another helper that will change or pop in and out as needed, this is not particularly important at the time. The point I am making is that asking for help and getting a reply is a bit more difficult for oneself, and a good way of doing this is a Reading using for example the cards. There are many kinds of cards and not all are Tarot by a long shot. Just a small point here, the purpose behind the reading is all that matters – not the cards themselves, the cards have no influence as they are inanimate objects, but as we know it is possible that the imagination of the film makers can tend to put silly ideas into impressionable minds! Just to be clear in case you have not read about the difference between a 'Card Reading' and a 'Sitting' or consultation. Definition: A Private Sitting or Consultation is an interview with a third party - the medium - who ‘tunes into’ the spirit world, but usually not using any physical aids, like cards flowers, or crystals for example, for that is only what cards etc are, visual aids, and they are often more for the client's assurance than the medium's assistance. A ‘Reading’ on the other hand uses all or any of the above, because the Clairvoyant is ‘reading’ the cards or whatever, but only as a guideline on subject matter, and as an indication to what spirit wish to say, i.e. suggestions to the medium from spirit of a memory or incidence taken from the clients past, just as the communications / clairvoyance works on the platform, or in the Open Circle. The cards I use for anything in the nature world are SHAMEN WISDOM CARDS and they have a website which is on our Web List under the heading of ‘Fun’. There is a leaflet inside that will go into all the details of each card, and I advise you to read it - but not try to memorise because this is not the object of any card reading if you are a Spiritualist, only if you are a psychic and want to rely just on yourself. Layouts are indicated as needed for each occasion, and again read all the different ideas on what can be used and wait to see what ‘pops up’ in your mind at the time. Examples could be a General reading as for Tarot e.g. the Celtic Cross. Or my own ‘Flying Ducks’ for two directions of decision-making. A circle in the style of a clock also is good because each card has meaning in each circle moving outwards. [See lessons 'Readings and Sittings ' for that diagram.] But beware of going on too long – I advise to put each card on the table face down and turn up each one as you ‘read’. With the CIRCLE Layout only put ONE CIRCLE DOWN AT ONCE, so only what spirit need is provided – or you could go on all day! Now go to the Lesson "Readings and Sittings" for more instructions...OK?
