Good morning!
I do hope you had a good weekend?
My days, weeks and weekends are just becoming a muddled blur of trying to keep up with my day-to-day work (ebay and amazon orders and running my own business) and basic household chores, while helping and supporting my Mum, visiting my Dad in hospital as often as possible, and trying to find out more information on Dad's progress and prognosis... it's not easy and I don't know what I would have done without Richard's help and support these past three weeks.
Dad was in good spirits yesterday, and he is eating and drinking a little more, but he still has no feeling in his hands. He had to have another MRI scan this weekend and we have to wait a couple of days for the results, before the doctors decide on what to do next. The main thing is to get the infection in his spine under control, but it does seem that Dad will be in hospital for quite some time yet :(
All we can do is carry on as best we can, taking each day as it comes, and be grateful that he is doing as well as he is, improving a little every day :)
Well, it is Manic Monday, and there's no rest for the wicked, so I must get started on my orders!
I am using The Wisdom of Avalon Oracle Cards this week :)
Whatever your star sign - have a good day!
Brightest Blessings,
Kaz

My personal card for today:
The Bard - music, poetry, myth, history, the enchantment of storytelling.
Divinatory meaning: This card represents music; storytelling; and the passing of truths, myths, and legends from generation to generation through the spoken word or song. In ancient Avalon, the traditions and stories of the people were gathered on leaves that served as letters in a living alphabet and were tended in vast, long houses. Here the Druids and priestesses came to read and weave the stories of magic and the sacred relationship to the God/Goddess and the Mystery.
Those schooled in the art of music and storytelling were given the task of informing their world and keeping the stories of their culture alive. They were given the name of Bard.
When the bard appears you're asked to seek answers in your own personal history. Go back into your own story and find the threads of the patterns in your reality and trace their length to the present. Perhaps you'll be surprised by how much of your past, or that of your ancestors, still weaves its influence on you today.
When the Bard appears he asks you to retrieve the stories woven in the past. Perhaps you need to learn about the history of someone, or something important in your inquiry. The seeds of the future are always hidden in the soil of the past. It's time to dig a little to find the clarity you need. Don't be afraid to learn the patterns of history. The only way to honour them or change them is to know them.
Perhaps it is time to listen to music and allow yourself to be carried into the land of memory and listen for its messages as the strings of your soul are strummed by the hand of the Divine. Remember that the Bard appears to help you stay in tune with All-That-Is. You are music, and your story is sung in the heavens.
Today's cards for each of the star signs:
Due to lack of time, etc. These are the 'quick reading' messages - for the full reading and meaning of the cards you will need to obtain these cards for yourself - or get someone else to buy them for you as a gift!
Aries:
THE GOBLIN - the wounded human ego
Quick reading: When the Goblin appears on your path, your plans are, or are about to go, awry. It's time to stop what you're doing and check your motives. Are you coming from an ego-centered place? Are the circumstances in your life triggering unresolved past issues that still need healing? Now is the time for self-evaluation and taking inventory, before you take another step.
Taurus:
MOVEMENT
Quick reading: This marker reminds you that all things change as part of the cycle of life. This may portend a physical move, or it heralds a release for restriction and waiting. Rejoice, for change is in the air and new things are about to enter your world. This marker is always an omen of change for the better.
Gemini:
THE QUEEN - woman, fertility, feminine power, sexuality, friendships
Quick reading: Fertility, beauty, female sexual energy, earthly pleasures, and friendships among women - the Queen summons you to bestow her gifts upon you so that you can revel in the beauty of life. The Queen appears to remind you of the importance of self-esteem, self-worth, and holding your head high. Now is the time to set boundaries with others with gentle authority, yet try not to be isolated from them in the process. The Queen knows how to delegate authority when she needs to. Summon your inner Queen and ask for what you need.
Cancer:
THE MERLIN - alchemy, justice, balance
Quick reading: The Merlin is the messenger of initiation and alchemy and is both the Magician and the High Priest. The Merlin says "You have all you need to move forward. Rejoice that all the elements you require for success are indeed present!" You are given notice that, when it comes to your life and it’s purpose, the magical aspect of the Merlin can be summoned to help you find an answer within you. Remember, all signs and omens sent by the Merlin are but reflections of that which is within you already.
Leo:
THE RAVEN - magic, coincidence, synchronistic events.
Quick reading: When the Raven appears, it's a sign of magic, where coincidence and Divine synchronicity bring surprising elements together. The Raven reminds you that on the path to wholeness, the magic of Avalon appears and all things become possible. Believe in magic and you cannot help but see it. Magic lives within belief itself! Expect the unexpected and prepare to be amazed.
Virgo:
THE SPIDER - creative projects
Quick reading: You have within you the gift to create meaningful, purposeful work. Within you is an artist waiting to be expressed. Whether you see yourself as an artist or not, you're always co-creating with the divine. You are the architect of your own happiness and fulfilment. What life are you building? Don’t just sit there - this is your time to create!
THE EAGLE - spirit, integrity, connection to the angelic realm
Quick reading: When the Eagle appears, it is a true signal of your connection to the angelic realm. With your angel's help and guidance, you can soar above life to see the larger vista. The Eagle helps you to make your choices accordingly, with integrity. When the Eagle appears, it’s also a signal for prayer. It’s time for a moment of conscious contact with the Divine. Remember that you’re always protected and Divinely directed if you follow the guidance of spirit as it appears in the form of the Eagle.
Scorpio:
THE BEE - luck, industriousness, sweet victory
Quick reading: With hard work and a firm commitment to building your dream, a sweet outcome is assured. The Bee is a symbol of luck, so expect miracles and your life will be victorious and sweet. The Bee is an industrious, busy creature that’s always making honey. The Bee “gets busy,” and that honey will soon be yours. The Bee is always a fortunate omen.
Sagittarius:
THE DEER - gentleness, diplomacy
Quick reading: When the Deer appears, it’s a reminder for you to step gently on the path, for you’re walking into a time when gentle movements and diplomacy are required. It’s important that you be gentle with yourself as well. Blend your personal energy with Deer's energy of gentleness and diplomacy. Walk softly and the way forward will be smooth. And remember... never mistake gentleness for weakness in yourself or in others.
Capricorn:
THE WASP - anger, retaliation, jealousy
Quick reading: Be mindful of how you address the world when Wasp appears. If you’re not careful you may sting or be stung. Don’t waste your stinger on a petty quarrel. Are you jealous or envious, or the victim of someone who is? Send love, light and compassion, and stay clear of the sting. The Wasp sends an omen of warning to protect yourself as well.
Aquarius:
PERCEPTION
Quick reading: This marker requires you to contemplate how you look at the world. This is the time to slow down to observe from all angles. This calls for objectivity and a willingness to examine your life and others' through a neutral pair of eyes. Perception is everything. Once you have shifted your perception, you may find that this was all that you needed to do!
Pisces:
THE STAG - pride, leadership
Quick reading: Take pride in all you do. Be the leader and hold your head high and others will follow by your example. Always ask yourself "what is the highest good for all?" The Stag leads you into the kind of pride that reminds you that you’re always in service to the God/Goddess in every step you take. You may already be there, in which case you should be proud and happy. Look how far you’ve come! Rejoice, for the Stag always leads you to a higher place with a sure and steady footing.
