Oracle and Tarot Readings: October 22, 2022

 Hi and welcome to Fractal Flowers. It is Saturday, October 22, 2022, and I will give messages from Spirit using multiple oracle decks.  Here is a photo of today's reading and a breakdown of each oracle deck and the card drawn. Several cards in today's reading are reversed. This means that Spirit has either an alignment task for us or is offering a protection message.

Here are today's cards drawn for our Fractal Flowers oracle reading. 

• The Mother (17): The Oracle of the Roses
• Water Violet (34): The Flowers Oracle
• Magical Gateway: Oracle of the Fairies
• Aine (reversed) (1): Goddess Power Oracle Deck
• Brown Bear Spirit (reversed) (9): Spirit Animal Oracle
• Druid: Angels and Ancestors Oracle Deck
•  Straif Blackthorn (reversed) (14): Celtic Tree Oracle
• Sage: The Witches' Kitchen

Oracle of the Roses: The Mother

Today we are reminded of the goddesses that emphasize what it means to be a mother, nurturer, healer, and full of compassion. These goddesses included Gaia, Rhea, Demeter, Isis and Terra Mater. Our rose today is the Old Blush Rose, and it reminds us not to turn away from our roots and see if there are any connections that need repair.

You are encouraged to mother yourself during this time and if you have unhealed hurts from your past, take the time to revisit these. Release forgiveness if needed and then compassion. You may be asked to strengthen or heal relationships with those who have played the mother-role in your life. The mother embodies strength, grace, wisdom, patience and compassion. Exhibit these traits with others as well as with yourself.

The Mother card also asks us to reflect upon unconditional love and how we define it. As mother, we show unconditional love to our children and there are many wounded people who continue to suffer through life because their own parents withheld unconditional love from them. 

Spirit wants us to walk in love as this is our highest calling in life. First, we must show love to Spirit, to others, for the planet, plant and animal kingdom, and to ourselves. Ask yourself what unconditional love means to you and examine your behaviors. Are you an example of unconditional love for others? Are you an example of unconditional love for yourself?

Cybele: The Phrygian Goddess, The Mother of all Gods

The Flowers Oracle: Water Violet

Water Violet is Dr. Bach's flower remedy for

those who have become a bit isolated and separate from others. This may be for a number of reasons but for today's reading and the previous "Mother" card, it appears Spirit is speaking about those who may have unhealed hurts from the past and as a result erected walls to keep others from getting to close. Water Violet speaks of the need to lower the walls, open your heart, and let others in. 

Many of these people prefer their company to others and seemingly do very well by being alone. They are self-reliant, confident, and are perfectly content without opening up their lives to others, but this isn't what Spirit has planned for them. If you are in this situation yet still feel pangs of loneliness, Spirit wants you to know that you are never truly alone. By examining your heart and healing any past hurts, you can lower your guard and find your way to truly opening your heart to those whom you wish to have a deeper relationship with. Not only this, but you will find that your love for humanity will increase and you can enjoy a deeper relationship with Spirit, a more grounded connection to Mother Earth and all of her inhabitants, and find a new connection with other people.

Oracle of the Fairies: Magical Gateway

The oracle of the fairies speaks to those who have been teetering on the idea that fairies are real. The message is to walk through the magical gateway that leads to the realm of the fae. In many areas of life seeing is believing, but when it comes to entering the magical gateway of the fae realm, you must believe before you can see.

 Fairies are an angelic realm that comprises guardians of the Earth. As you begin to see and work with fairies, you will become more ecologically minded. You will find your connection to Mother Earth is greater and you'll view the world in a different way. It isn't uncommon for people to become vegan or vegetarian after they begin working with the fairy realm. 

The key to walking through the magical gateway to the fairy realm is found in your heart. Do you believe that fairies are real?

Today, the fairies ask you to open your heart by unlocking the door and taking a step of faith through the door to the realm of fae.

Simply step outside and spend a few moments in quiet meditation with nature. Ask the fairies to show themselves to you. 

Fairy Whisperers Claim to Be Able to See Fairies

Goddess Power Oracle Deck: Aine (reversed)

In the Goddess Power Oracle Deck, the Irish

goddess Aine comes through with a message about change and adaptability. Known as Queen of the Fairies, Aine could easily shift through any realm. She was also known for the duality of her personality where she was full of love, healing, and all things bright and warm, yet when crossed, could bring wrath and a curse. One of Ireland's most beloved goddesses, Aine's message today is for those who fear change and are scared to move with life's changing rhythms.

 There have been many important changes facing humanity since the start of the 2019 COVID pandemic and many are afraid of what life has to bring. Aine's message is that in order to face life's challenges, you must be fully present and willing to adapt to whatever comes your way. Do not fear the unknown, do not fear the future, and do not fear the changes that face you. You are strong, victorious, and an overcomer. There is no situation, sickness, rumors of war, or even war that can keep you from your destiny. Stand strong and stand in courage. Know that when these things arise in your life, there is no use in trying to fight them. You can change with them, but they do not have to change who you are. Keep your heart of love and light pure and you will find that there is nothing that can overshadow you and plunge you into darkness. 

Spirit Animal Oracle Deck: Brown Bear Spirit (reversed)

Brown Bear Spirit reminds you that there is a time to wait and a time to rest. Because this card is reversed, Spirit is saying that you are rushing or working yourself too hard. This may be physically at your job, or it could be something that you are pursuing. Whatever it is, you are trying to resolve a situation or achieve a desired outcome and you are pushing yourself too hard trying to make something happen. Instead, it is time to take a rest or pause and go within. If you are working too hard, then Spirit is saying to take a break. If you are trying to resolve a situation with no luck, then Spirit says withdraw, meditate, go within, and look at the situation from a different point of view.

Regardless of your exact situation or circumstance, Brown Bear Spirit says to step back and take a break. You do not need to manifest the answer. You just need to go within and open your eyes. The answer will appear at the perfect time.

Angels and Ancestors Oracle Deck: Druid

Druid comes in to let you know that now is

not the time to make any sudden moves or changes. It is best to take your time and stand still. Hold your ground and hold space. Don't let fear of the unknown cause anxiety or make you feel as though you must make a rash decision. In fact, the opposite is true. Spirit is bringing through multiple messages in today's readings suggesting it is best to stay where you are and just wait. Trust that Spirit is working everything out for your best interest and by waiting and trusting, you will soon see things in a different way.

Remember, this is not the time to make any sudden changes.

Celtic Tree Oracle: Straif Blackthorn (reversed)

Many times when we run into problems or difficulties, it is easy to point the finger at others and cast blame. We can then develop a habit of never taking accountability or responsibility for our own actions and falling into patterns of negativity that only make the problem worse. Life is full of challenges and we are all on a journey of growth. Everyone makes mistakes and when someone makes a mistake (whether you or someone else), it's imperative to offer forgiveness. Learn from the mistake, release love and healing, and move forward. 

You may need to hold yourself accountable for a negative situation you are currently finding yourself in. Spirit is saying that now is not the time to make sudden moves to 'fix things.' Make yourself accountable for your part in the situation. Only by owning your mistakes and being accountable for your actions can you truly learn from your behavior and grow. Stand strong and firm and you find that being accountable is the path to true growth. 

Witches' Kitchen: Sage

Shrubby sage, sacred space

I'll purify and cleanse your place

Vibrations raised, no longer stuck

assist, I shall, to bring you luck.

This magic is worked with harm to none

So mote it be. There it is done

 - from the Witches' Kitchen

Sage is all about protection and purification. You may have let too much negative energy into your space and Spirit is saying it's time to clean house. Grab your sage, incense, or sticks and do your purification rituals. You may also use sage sprays if you suffer from allergies or asthma and prefer not to have smoke wafting in the air.

Oracle and Tarot Reading: October 20, 2022

 Hello! It's October 20, 2022, and I have pulled our oracle and tarot reading for the day. Here are the eight oracle cards that I drew. They are as follows.

1. The Artist: The Oracle of the Roses
2. Vine: The Flowers Oracle
3. Abundance: Oracle of the Fairies
4. Demeter Reversed: Goddess Power Oracle Deck
5. Frog Spirit:  Spirit Animal Oracle 
6. Knight: Angels and Ancestors Oracle Deck
7. Uilleand Honeysuckle: Celtic Tree Oracle
8. Chamomile: The Witches' Kitchen

You may see the cards in the photo below. Please take a second to look at the cards and see if they speak to you. What are your first impressions? What is Spirit conveying to you through the images? Please jot down any thoughts, ideas, or inspirations in your spiritual journals.

Oracle of the Roses: The Artist

The Artist card features the full-bodied Rubens Rose, named after the artist Peter Paul Rubens. This card is all about creative pursuits and inspiration. It asks you to tap into your creativity and connect with Spirit in this manner. Be your own, unique and creative self. During this period, let your intuition guide you and lead the way. Do not follow what others are doing. Be your own muse. The Rubens Rose is named so because Peter Paul Rubens painted full-bodied women in the nude, much like the soft-bodied rose. Here is Peter Paul Rubens' painting 'The Three Graces.'

Flowers Oracle: Vine 

The card Vine features a mother walking with a little child by her side. The message speaks about service as well as the responsibility that comes with leadership positions. You can sum up Vine's message with this phrase: Lead with motivation, not domination. Leadership is a position of power and it is a wise person who chooses to lead with positive reinforcement and inspiring creativity, passion, focus, drive, and determination in others. This is the right way to inspire others as opposed to using power, force, and domination to manipulate and control.

The Oracle of the Fairies: Abundance

Spirit has been giving us messages of abundance for over a month now. I certainly appreciate them, especially with a dismal financial forecast for 2023.  In this message, the fairies are telling us to prepare ourselves for incoming abundance. It's also important to understand the power of manifestation and to set our intentions in order for abundance to come.

It's important not to limit the way that Spirit blesses us with abundance. Many times, people only think about money when they see the word abundance. Spirit may choose to bless you with abundance in a variety of ways: health, spiritual knowledge, pregnancy, growing your family, and even adding new pets to your family could all be part of an abundance blessing.

Before you can receive abundance, you must believe that you are worthy to receive it. 

Goddess Power Oracle: Demeter Reversed

There are different reasons why people get into co-dependent or manipulative situations. Spirit is using this card to say that you are involved in a situation with people who are not good for you. They may be psychic vampires, draining your energy, or crossing over your boundaries. It is important that you set healthy boundaries in your life and limit people who have a negative impact on your energy. Demeter says that it is time to set boundaries and ensure that you only surround yourself with healthy, positive relationships.

Don't be afraid to say no to toxic people.

Spirit Animal Oracle: Frog Spirit

Frog spirit tells us that it is time to declutter and make space for the things that we need to keep in our lives. Sometimes we overextend ourselves and may have people, objects, and commitments that need to be removed in order for us to stay focused and complete our tasks in a timely manner. By making sure that our homes and lives are clear of clutter and confusion, we make room for the things that promote our spiritual and physical growth. 

Angels and Ancestors: Knight

The knight tells us to be brave, full of integrity, and stand up for what we believe in. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is the right thing to do. Never be afraid to make choices that may be at odds with popular opinion, when you know they are in alignment with your morals, values, and Spirit's call on your life.

The Knight is a fierce and brave warrior and you are called to be fierce and brave as well.

Celtic Tree Oracle: Uilleand Honeysuckle

This card represents the search for hidden knowledge and wisdom that one obtains from going within. The flowering honeysuckle vine tells us that we must be true to Spirit and true to ourselves and as we continue our journey through life, it is paramount we turn away from things that are false and dark. We must always walk in the light and sometimes when the light is hard to see, we need to go within and find the spark that illuminates our paths. Meditation is key to going within, hearing Spirit, and finding your way out of the darkness and back into the light.

Witches' Kitchen Oracle: Chamomile

Chamomile speaks to us about peace and relaxation. Like our earlier message in Vine, Chamomile tells us to loosen up. Many people are living fast-paced lives and turn to chemical stimulants for energy. Chamomile says it is time to loosen up and relax. Maybe you have been working too hard, or have been leading others in a very controlled manner. Maybe you are dealing with anxiety issues. Chamomile is a nature relaxer, but make certain to speak to your health care provider before using any flower or herb to treat your ailments. 

Chamomile is readily available in the form of tea and has been used since ancient Egypt where it was associated with the sun God Ra. Chamomile is one of the nine sacred herbs of the Saxons and is listed in the Nine Herbs Charm.

You may see a video about making flower essences (such as the Bach Flower Essences that are depicted in the Flowers Oracle deck) from the Florida School of Holistic Living below.

I hope this oracle reading blessed you. Now I am going to give a free, five-card tarot reading for the day. This is a message from Spirit for the collective and it includes the following spread: Situation, Challenges, Solution, Advice, and Outcome. 

I will use my Flower Fairies tarot deck for this reading.
