Ok so I did the dream focus last night and I remeber a few things from my dream.
Basically I was in a class. But I wasn't the student nor the teacher or I was both. I know I sat amongst the other students but I also helped them with lessons. The classroom was on a boat of some sort and it was almost like a retreat. You know like going on a cruise. I'm not sure what the lessons were on I don't remember the topic of discussion. I just saw myself helping others in a classroom. When the session was over we all left the boat to return home. I remember the ride home in a van. My gprandparents picked me up in their van. When I got home there was a big deal about my return. I had lots of stuff I took with me and had to unpack. Bags of clothes. That's all I remember so far. If anything else comes to memory I'll add it.

I wasn't able to remember clearly the dreams I had last night. I will try again tonight though.
Ok here is my thoughts on the Gilded Tarot Magician Wise, Talented, Skilled, Focused, Serious, Mysterious.

My "Magician" is the High Priest in the Sacred Circle Deck. I will also post about my thoughts on the magician in the Gilded Tarot as well later. Once I've had time to reflect on it a bit. Wisdom, Knowledge, Learning, Oneness Edit: I made a mistake on which card represents the magician so I modified to fix it so there will be no confusion later.

Very nice spread. I have read about a similar spread in a book I'm reading. It just doesn't go into the questions asked. But I think that makes a lot of sense and helps you focus on the inteded goal of the reading.

Oh you made perfect sense I see the connection you speak of now. Thank you for helping me with that. I'm glad I could offer my dream to help the study. I usually remember dreams but you know when I "try" to or "want" to it's harder. But this one was completely different very vivid.

Ok so I studied the fool before going to sleep last night and thought of what this card means to me...I did have a dream which I remembered.
Me, my mom and my brother were traveling somewhere and we all wanted to stop at a particular place. I think it was some sort of museum or something. Tours were being given throughout the building. The three of us went off on our own. We were "looking" for something although I'm not sure what. I think we were just looking around to see why we all had the urge to be in there. While walking I was actively looking for clues pertaining to my father (he passed away several years ago when my brother and I were young). I kept looking for pennies in particular and looking for any clue on the penny from my father. I found two pennies which didn't seem to be anything of importance. We then went into a room where a a janitor was. He was cleaning up (sweeping) some papers on the floor. I was still looking for pennies and I saw a desk drawer slightly opened so I opened it more to look inside. The guy got upset and started to say something. Before he could finish I told him to listen to what I had to say. I explained what we were doing...I said, "ok before you get all pissy and throw us out hear me out. Don't speak until I am completely done because what I am doing is important and a little confusing to those who don't understand. We were drawn here by me late father for some reason and I am looking for pennies that might give an idea of why we are here. If you are mad that I open the drawer that is completely understandable, I just want you to know that I (we) never intended or ever will intend to take anything. Now some people may think I'm a bit strange and others think I am completely crazy but I have a reason to be here and I'm not leaving until I'm done" (I know I said other things but can't remember it all). All the while he was writing in a notebook. he started to say that we had no right to.... I didn't like where he was going with that so I took his notebook and tore the pages he was writing out and tore them up. We left that room and went back out to the lobby area on our way out of the building. In the lobby there was a large group leaving that just finished with there tour. I would have to say that there was at least 30 people in this group. On the floor (where the group was walking) I saw two pennies. One of them wasn't special but the other one had a bust of a female on the front and the lincoln memorial AND the buffalo on the back. It was like one was printed over the other but both were clearly visible. The female bust was like that of a cameo charm or something. I kept it satisfied that this was what I was there for. On the way out of the building my mom said that she was proud of me and what I said back there. She said a few of the things I said hit her hard but were true. For some reason it felt like a major weight was lifted from me. When we got outside it was dark and raining, she forgot where she parked the truck but I knew exactly where it was. So we were able to get in without getting too wet. Then I woke up.
I have no idea how this pertains to the fool if at all. But this dream felt so emotional to me. I felt on a mission of some sort and didn't even know what it was. I don't think my mission was what I originally thought it was (finding that one penny). My mom absolutely loves cameos (which was on the face side of that penny). We are all still shaken up about my father's death even though it's been almost 20 years. My mom and brother both still have a real hard time with it during this time of year. For even more background...my father battled cancer for a while. He was in and out of the hospital all winter before finally passing on Valentine's day. All three of us didn't celebrate Valentine's day for year and years (actually this past year was the first year I didn't feel empty inside on that day). But my brother is still having a real hard time with that. In fact I just had a conversation with him about it last week. I told him he needs to stop mourning that day and celebrate it for his family. I told him that dad wouldn't have wanted us to do what we have been doing. I told him my personal experiences through life with dealing with it and told him that it's hard but we all have to move on.
Those are the only things I can pick up on in this dream at the moment. I'm sure I'll make sense of it in time.

That's exactly what my deck encourages Ronni. Meditating and provoking dreams with the cards. I have done that with a few other cards before but I'll try it for this one. Hopefully I'll remember tonight and actually be able to remember the dream.

The Fool or in my case the Greenman (from sacred circle deck) All encompasing...the circle of life....balance....man is as much of nature as the tree itself.

Thanks. I was quite surprised at how easily it came to me after so long of not doing any readings at all. You know the funny thing is...Before I even started the reading...while I focusing and gathering my thoughts and energies to do the reading I got a call about my business. Then not half an hour after I got another call about my business for another party. That made all the cards really fall into place for me with my understanding of them

I broke down and did a reading for myself today. I decided to do the Celtic Cross spread so it's pretty long... As usual I will give my interpretation of each card then an overview of the entire reading.
My Focus: Since I'm pretty much just starting out in my business I focused on that. Position: You Sense of longing. Searching for whats ahead. In this card I see the figure (me) leaving behind that which does not satisfy me and preparing to move forward. Position: Crossing I see opposites here, but also harmony. I feel a sense of union and partnership. Position: Foundation I see the abundance of emotion and feelings. With the different faces of the moon showing, I feel there are different faces of emotion showing. I feel the eye is watching over all the intenseness. Position:Past I see focus, determination and an intense sense of being right. I see a fiery temperment which must be controlled. Position: Present I see love, joy and companionship in this card. "My cup runneth over" with happiness. Position: Future I see resources in the way of money, or material things in this card. I also see the the weasel representing greed. Position: Your Self (image) I see passion, determination, and softness here. Ready to take action, but can let her gaurd when she chooses. Position: Environment I get a sense of past times from this card. Times when things were less stressful and more joyful. But I see the cat warning me to not infatuate on this. (be ready to pounce on that which gets in the way). Position: Hopes and Fears I feel power, control of that which I desire, and determination. There is a lot of focus in this card. Position: Outcome I see balance here. Particularly balance of physical things and balancing with ease. There is also a balance of other matters represented by the other elements (rainbow-fire, dolphin-water).
Overall: I see this reading telling me I have the tools, gifts, and power to do what I wish. I only need to focus my given skills and move towards my goal. I am getting that I should not be afraid to use my skills and power. Now is not the time to sit in my comfort zone, it's the time to take advantage of what I have. How this relates to me personally: Yes I am overwhelmed with ideas for my new business. I am finding it hard to focus on any particular thing at the moment because I have so many ideas concerning this one thing. Yes I am afraid that all this is going to make me turn and run away from it. I have done that in the past, I get so caught up with a mass of ideas that I can't get anywhere and therefore I run away from the whole thing. Even with all this about I get the feeling that the cards are telling me I need to take some time to enjoy those around me. And I do, I have been so caught up in everything that I have found myself feeling guilty for not spending time with my husband. I have learned to MAKE myself take time to spend with him. I know I have the power within me to make anything possible, that is what scares me sometimes.

Spread:3 card Deck: GT 1. Mind: 7 cups I am everything. Be wary of distractions and choices/opportunities present 2. Body:9 wands Pain, loss. Withdraw to heal and evaluate situation then try again. Don't give up. 3. Spirit:5 wands Practice. Helping others experience something helps my own growth and experience. Summary: I am everything that I want to be but I must be careful of my choices. I must stay focused and keep site of what I want for myself. If I feel I have lost I must step back and evaluate the situation completely and know what caused my failure. Then not to be afraid of trying again. In order to experience everything to the fullest I must share my experiences and knowledge so that I can help others experience. This is how to go about helping myself.

Awe thanks DB. I really apreciate your input. I have been wanting to talk with her about it for a while but I never get the time really. Either she's not available or we can't say too much around her husband. I really don't want him invloved at all (I don't trust him, never have and never will, it's a bad vibe thing). We don't live as close anymore so seeing each other it hard. But I think this just gives me more incentive to move forward with it.

Wow that clarifies a lot. Thanks a bunch. I always felt that a mundane job would never cut it for me. I have had a few and I never thought the money/job was worth my energy. I have been thinking of self-employment a lot though. Acutally I was thinking of asking my mom (she has a home based business selling stuff) if there was a way I could branch off of her business. I don't want to work for her doing the same thing but have a more specialized and focused inventory. I do have a lot of ideas, well at least a few, I guess I'm just afraid I'm going to fail so I don't give it 100% of my energy.
I'll do another reading for further clarification. Maybe I'll finally come to that realization where it all just clicks.

Q: What career path should I follow? 1. what job is best for you Upon first glance this card speaks mischief to me. 2. what job is worst for you Well I see the obvious:strength. As well as courage, Confidence, Pride, and control. 3. how to achieve this job I feel a sense of longing here as she looks out over the water holding her cup. She looks concerned for one reason or another. I also am drawn to her right hand laying on her stomach as if she were expecting or wishing for a child. 4. outcome of card 3 I see reflection and a time to think about past as well as future actions. I do not see any action taking place in this card, either the action has already taken place or is about to. Ok at first I thought how is this reading going to make sense relating to what career path I should follow. With the first card speaking mischief to me and the second relating to strength it almost seemed as if the cards were out of order. My rational mind wanted to believe that but as I read on further I let go of my rational thoughts. I see this reading as telling me I should follow something I'm not used to. Something that goes against my comfort zone. The only thing I can get out of this reading is motherhood. It's something that has crossed my mind but I'm afraid to approach. I make up excuses as to why I'm not ready and believe that I'll be able to work that into my life at the "right" time. I have gotten many cards that give this impression to me and have had several dreams where that is the main theme. The thing that throws me off with these cards is the two swords the guy left behind. Is this saying that my thoughts are too hasty? Will I see those two "forgotten" swords later? Will they come back to stab me in the back when I least expect it? I hope someone can give me a different perspective because honestly if that is my "calling" it scares the heck out of me.
