The
Star
XVII – Here
in the Star we see an Angel pouring water on both
the land and back into the creek or river. This saying
here is “as above, so below” in indicates
that what actions we take on the outside can reflect
the part of us that is connected to the God source
or our inner self.
In
the Star we see what life can be like when we follow
the path of our true and original destiny. It is the
connection to the super-subconscious and the idea
that we can take the path that we were destined to
make when we decided to come into this plane of existence.
That through our being we can reflect the light of
God in our actions as well as in what path we chose
for our destiny. The lesson is to give ourselves up
to our destiny and be one with that part of ourselves
that connects to the God Source, or the super-subconscious.
When
this card appears in an upright position it indicates
that the path you are on is the one you were meant
to take. This card often indicates that the client/recipient
has been asking whether or not they made some bad
decisions or choices in their life. We all get to
that place every now and then where we are suspect
to our own decisions, but when the Star comes into
play in the upright position. The cards are telling
you that you are indeed on the right path and the
right decisions and directions have been taken.
In
the case of the Star, the cards are telling you that
there is something that is not quite right yet, that
somehow the client/recipient has gotten of on the
wrong track. It may be that something or someone is
not ready; it can also indicate minor illnesses or
physical issue when in the reverse position. The thinking
here is that if someone is not feeling well, they
are not ready to move forward. In one situation someone
had back trouble, well, back trouble is also an indication
of not moving forward in one’s life or growth,
thus this would be accurate.
In
meditation this card can help guide someone to the
path that is best for him or her. It is a card that
can help us get in touch with our inner self, that
part of us that connects with the Universe and bring
back what it is we find there. It is a card that can
help us to accept our destiny or our promise. It can
help insure us that we are in keeping with that original
purpose or plan so that we might be the best person
we possibly can, and that the work we accomplish be
of the highest intent.
