The above video is the intuitive reading portion of this article, and this article will cover the more theoretic aspect of the reading, as well as offer a recap of the major points covered in the video. The video was recorded on September 1st and then posted to YouTube around Labor Day. Let’s make the most out of the last 10 days of this month. These energies are very present and it would be a shame to not make this post. Especially when next month's circumstances rely so heavily on how we handle this energy now. Since Mercury went retrograde I have been having difficulties reading letters. As in, I will see a letter, and then the word doesn’t make sense, and it turned out to be another letter or even a number. But my vision was clear at the time. First time for everything, if it persists after Mercury goes direct I will get it checked out. What else can you do? Freak out? That's not very helpful to me anymore. I know that this happens when your Third Eye is open and you inadvertently look through it instead of your physical eyes. Reality shifts. Instead of seeing the 3-D plane, all of the sudden you are looking at the 4-D plane and because they can be similar, you can’t tell things have shifted just slightly until you shift back. This actually brings me to the major energy of the month, which is The Shadowdance card. This card represents The Devil in the traditional Tarot deck. In this deck, the Journey into the Hidden Realm, the Shadowdance card represents knowing your limits. Specifically when it comes to physical pleasure or indulging in the seven deadly sins. In the traditional Tarot the Devil card represents the sign of Capricorn and the concept of deception. It is quite fitting that I’m experiencing slight shifts in reality that I typically don’t experience. Like tiny illusions. Other illusions I am aware of include those on Tik Tok. I don't have an account or have any plans or desires to open one. Yet people keep sending me links to Tik Tok videos about “incredible, unexplainable, and amazing things!” I’m not impressed or taken by any of these. This is not the time to believe a perfect stranger that is trying to impress you. I do get the irony in this as I am a perfect stranger to you. Though I am not trying to impress you and my best advice is always check in with your own intuition. I offer energy healing sessions to help people connect to their intuition quicker. I also offer advice on how to do it should you choose to learn on your own. I’m also beginning to see this deception with AI videos. If an amateur creates it, you can see where the image glitches or how it is fake in the movements. Though you would have to know how to look for imperfections in graphics to see them too. Take someone with some experience and give them enough money to create something so real their life depends on it and they will fool anyone who isn’t tapping into their own intuition to decipher if this is real or fake. What I’m saying is, there are illusions in the atmosphere this month and have been for a while, anyone who is awake knows this too well. The Devil also represents material reality over spiritual practice. When I bring up the idea of someone being paid enough to not lose their life, I have to ask: What life? Their physical body or the life they've been living or both? I'll just leave you with those philosophical questions to ponder on. The Energy of September 2022 - Lies Coming to the SurfaceSeptember gives us the energy of The Devil and The Lovers. Through the Major Arcana of the Devil I got a sense of lies that people had either told or received from a specific person. This can also include self-imposed lies. The Devil card represents Capricorn and deception. It is highly possible that someone out there is discovering the lies a Capricorn person has told them or alternatively, lies about success or how to go about success and achieving your dreams. The main reason I saw lies within relationships coming to the surface was to purify the area around the heart chakra. This chakra allows us to put ourselves in other people’s shoes, gain empathy, feel compassion, give/receive forgiveness, reach acceptance, and find peace. I saw that both male and female individuals are looking and needing a real connection between them. One that is gentle, loving, and healing. When it is blocked there is a repression of love and emotional instability. Through this card I also saw the balancing of the feminine and masculine energy within all of us. To explain this better here, we all have both energies within us. This is not a matter of gender. It is possible to express the stronger energy depending on the situation at hand. When both energies are balanced, it is easier to choose which one needs to lead in the situation. It is more often the case that people live their lives through the expression of the strongest one and don't think about balancing both but rather look for that one person who expresses the energy they feel they are unable to tap into. What is Feminine Energy?Feminine energy is the one that allows, it is the one that goes with the flow. It compromises to make things work, and works gently and persistently, much like water carving a stone. It is also connected to the emotional, intuitive, and creative world, and uses this connection to make decisions. An overly feminine energy can be very confusing and experience erratic emotions much like a riptide. The danger unnoticeable from the outside but very dangerous when you get too close. What is Masculine Energy?Masculine energy is the one that forges ahead and is more obvious due to it’s outward expression. Masculine energy represents the strength, control, logic, and direction. This energy is often associated with fire, when it is balanced fire can bring us protection, and show us the direction in the darkness. Masculine energy thrives on doing and being active, rather than being passive, much like a flame, always moving, bobbing and weaving in the air. An overly masculine energy can be akin to a wild forest fire, out of control, taking out everything in its path, and overtly visible to many. Instead of offering protection, it makes others feel they are in danger. In this way, this month we have the opportunity to balance these energies within us and explore the dichotomy between materialism and spiritualism represented through The Devil. Bring balance to the expression of either our inner or outer world depending on which side we’ve leaned too far into until now. The Devil energy brings this type of illusion. Things appearing perfectly ordered on the outside when on the inside you are falling apart; if you want a movie example of this idea watch American Beauty. If you are ruled by masculine energies, you might have been called to chill out this month in one way or another. Possibly, even against your will. To learn to find strength through your inner balance instead of relying on physical stability while ignoring your creative, intuitive, and even patient side. Showing up everyday to do something eventually creates that something, like I said, water carving a stone. The Connection to The Lovers in September 2022One of the major discoveries I had while researching The Lovers card was the misconception that it represents making a choice. Yes, for some it can mean that, if it fits the situation use it. In my studies and practice, I was not able to connect with The Lovers card and therefore I used the associated meaning of making a choice in my readings because I didn’t have another way of connecting with it. In doing the research for this article, it has come to my attention that the occult meaning of The Lovers card, as explained by Paul Foster Case, is a representation of listening to the Divine, in this card we see Archangel Raphael at the top, offerings healing and advice to both sides. In the Journey into the Hidden Realm it represents the male and female faeries holding unto each other. This is where I get the idea of balancing the feminine and masculine energy. It is the female or feminine energy that is aware of the Archangel, through that introspection and inner world exploration. The outer information is being given by the male or masculine energy in this card, unaware of the Archangel. In a way this card can represent consulting in silence with the divine before making a decision, and to consider the spiritual aspect of a situation instead of relying on only the physical clues. The following message came through from the Archangels as a deepening message of The Lovers card. Recap for September 2022
I have continued to receive messages about this “domino effect” vision as it has to do with a major world event that will affect us all. As such I will be exploring this message further through a recorded tarot reading which will be available on my youtube channel later.
