LOVE IT ALL LIGHT AND DARK



Through love we conquer fears and free self to experience a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Often times people believe if only they met the right person, a person to love and hold them as a jewel in life, they'd find happiness. It could happen.
As a tarot reader when people see the cared The Lovers, they think that is it! He or she, their lover is going to fix it all. That's really not what the card's symbolic message is about. It's about the love of self and  love of one's uniqueness.
The opposite of love is self-loathing caused by a false belief we are unlovable -in the tarot The Devil (number 15) represents that and our fears - whereas The Lovers (number 6. 15 = 6) is how to love fully, self and othes.
Looking at the two cards side-by-side: Both form a triangle with a powerful being on top (devil or Pan) and in The Lovers, archangel Rafael. In each corner stands a man to the right and a woman to the left; the man gestures with his hand to the woman (his need to connect to the female energy) and the woman (the emotion/psychic self) has two reactions: in the Lovers she’s open handed – accepted what the man offers or inviting his offerings and opened for guidance from the angel. In the Devil both hands are not open. Between them is a pull, in the devil the pull is cardinal. The man is enflamed by the force of the devil; perhaps thriving off chaos; the female  by the fruits of desire, but she doesn’t look to the devil, rather stares out to ? nowhere? Whereas in the Lovers she looks to the angel for guidance and connects the spirit with the conscious mind.
While the Devil represents the lower form of humans – the downfall of cardinal desires –the Lovers represents living with a higher or spiritual form of purpose. In the Lovers behind the man is the Tree of Knowledge; the woman, The Tree of Wisdom. She looks to the higher self to connect  the knowledge attained on the earth with inner wisdom to a greater purpose, thus the triangle of self and/or the balance of purpose or life.
When have you used and/or are using your knowledge (education) wisely to satisfy your needs materially and spiritually? Doing so is to live your authentic self through the positive use of your unique talents and abilities.
To live wholly or fully  is a balancing act of accepting the shadow-light energy or the  yin-yang .
Free yourself from the chains of your fears: prejudices, phobias, judgments and lack of self-love. LOVE YOUR SELF as in the Lovers.
Looking at the two cards makes a lot of sense for they represent us – the good, the bad and the ugly. You can transform your fears into a higher purpose.
I recently did. I have had a cherished goal but believed it would take too much time and money to accomplish. I meditated on The Devil  and realized my fear: I wasn’t valuing my talents. I wasn’t investing in myself as I invested in caring for others.
Meditating on the Lovers, I realized a balance place. Release certain responsibilities and people to focus on what brings me joy. I’m following a Higher Voice of Conscious and learning to write a potentially successful screenplay.
What is chaining you to the darkness of chaos, unhappiness and/or stagnation? How can you love yourself and life more so? Tell me what you did today to move beyond your fears into the love light.

THE DEVIL GOT YOU BY THE TOE?

               Devil got your tongue?
Chained to the Devil?
Stuck in time? Stuck to responsibilities? 
Can't move along to a happier place in life?


What a little devil you are.
  The devil made me do it.
 I"m going beat the devil out of you.
What else has devil done to you?

 In the tarot's twenty-two major arcana cards (the pathway to enlightenment.) The Devil (Ryder/Waite deck) symbolizes Pan, the Greek god who generates chaos.

The Devil's message is a reminder of how our thinking can create a feeling of being stuck to a person, place or thing thus we create a behavior and beliefs that keeps us from living peacefully.

When our thoughts become chaotic, our fears and doubts become bigger than a solution, when our mind is muddled and we lose clarity we feel powerless and there are no choices. We become immobilized by our fears and doubts and become apathetic, angry, crazy! And in our state the victim of circumstances. 

If you notice the chains around the man and woman are not tight. They can take them off. The man (the mind) is fueled by the fire of greed, lust, gluttony or any of the seven deadly sins.

 and thus becomes chained to the material world (the cube.) The woman (passion) feeds  off his desires, creating deceptive fruits (addictions). They are stuck to earthly needs. Their spiritual self is dismissed for cardinal rewards.

There's a bit of the devil in each of us; could be a big piece, and at certain times, with specific people and/or situations, a strong part of us. It could be a small thing - like a moment of wanting beyond reason which brings  disappointment, confusion and panic––a once in a while experience when we need to leap with faith and break free from the chain keeping us back.

The Devil is a reminder to us to examine what is holding us back from being fulfilled, keeping hope, and feeling positive. 

What hold you back from a dream come true?  What are you stuck to, chained to or afraid of that keeps you from realizing a more fulfilling and positive life?

As a life coach my clients and I examine what chains are holding them back from achievement.

There is an answer, another path, and a move forward when you are willing to remove the chains and find balance. The opposite card of The Devil is The Lovers.

REACH A GOAL: DREAM, VISION, AND ACTION



A dream is a vision is a for real is a goal is work - need patience and faith. When have you had a dream of what you wanted in life? Then from that began to day dream about it until a clear vision began to be a thought of how am I going to get that? I have them all the time. Some dreams fade away with time, some tuck away and show up later. My latest dream - vision - goal recently manifested. A new novel. I did it. I wrote it, labored over it, had to be patient and believe and try again, and again and again.

It feels good. I did it. I'm getting better and better at this manifestation thing especially if I take it step-by-step and be willing to believe it's all happening.

When did you 'Do It!'?

Spooky Old Haunted Castle Fun


Haunted House: the words always catch my interest. Let's go and "feel" it out.  Hubby took me on a date to a haunted castle.  Check it out
 I've done a lot of ghost busting and many seances over the years - sometimes fun but alas usually more sad for those seeking news from the departed. I've worked with the police on missing people (and a child) and that communication is no longer for me.  I can and do decide the spirit and entity coming through. I've been where I won't return too as the energy is too dark. 
     The castle tour though was a fun treat!  It is Pacifia's historical McCloseky also known as Sam's Castle. In one room I felt a presence. But with the many visitors and staff, it wasn't easy to be with the spirits. The spirit I picked up most clearly, I later learned, had been sighted there. 
    There many docents waiting to impart glory and tittering details of the castle's extensive history.  At the gate visitors are greeted by a kiltie (man in a fine kilt) with a most beautiful Irish wolfhound. Before entering a small bit of what to expect is given.
     Built in 1908 by Irish immigrant, Henry Harrison McCloseky, for his Scottish born wife after the San Francisco earthquake destroyed their city home. The wife wanted to return to her childhood castle home in Scotland hence the castle in Pacifica to keep her happy.Then Pacifica was way out in the boonies from the City! After a period of time and a tragedy, the castle began its long history of owners with a very lively roaring 1920's history! Speakeasy, brothel, and it is said, an abortion clinic. Well, I think that's goes along with the booze and night life. 
      Besides the history and more so importantly, the art within the castle! Art deco statues, old late 1800's and early 1900's furniture. Every room was filled with most beautiful piecees. This statue is one of my favorites.
     The home's restoration is a unique period time, wallpapering, chandeliers and Indian carpets. In every room is a docent or two more than willing to share the history, some as though they are the "ghosts" of the former residence now in spirit.  The view of the ocean is incredibly beautiful for the majority of rooms.  Downstairs in the dinning area delicious homemade desserts, coffee and juice and an small table to purchase something like a good book with greater details and stories. 
   I offered to conduct a seance there with all donations going to the castle. They were thrilled with the idea. What have I got myself into now? Truly a fun place for ghosts to be - A HAUNTED CASTLE!
  Do you like to visit haunted places? Can you "feel" the spirits? What are your thoughts about ghosts and spirits?

Yee Gads!

Busy making up a story:

Thunder and lightening galore.  Hubby says it's God taking photos. It's a real photo shoot! Snap, snap, snap.  Now that reminds me of the opening of my new novel... here it its.... & read more about my next soon-to-be novel...  www.juneahern.com   

CHAPTER ONE
Chowchilla State Women’s Facility
Chowchilla, California
1984
Snap, snap, snap. The rapid sharp sounds of the inmate’s bubblegum ricocheted around the waiting room.
“Brenda Rose!” growled Officer Sue DeLosa between clenched teeth, followed by a threatening glare. Brenda Rose Browne, or BR as she was known at Chowchilla’s Women’s Correctional Facility, scowled defiantly at the stout officer and continued rotating her jaw like a cow chewing cud. DeLosa widened her stance and casually placed a hand next to her billy club. The prisoner rolled her watery blue eyes at her fellow inmate, Liz Mackay, sitting opposite on a matching plastic chair.
Liz ignored both women and fixed her eyes straight ahead on the blank wall. The gum chomping and snapping didn’t irritate her as it did the guard. She’d learned to live with many irritants and restrictions over the years she’d been incarcerated.
What did annoy Liz was the escalating stale odor emanating from the women’s bodies in the cramped windowless room. The space was more of a wide corridor with three doors. At one end a door led to the cellblocks and eight feet away opposite it, another led to offices and the outside. Behind the third door in the middle, the board conducted hearings to determine prisoners’ lives. The three women had been waiting for almost an hour while the parole board settled in and reviewed their cases.
