Lifestyles  |  Lammas: Where Did It Come From?

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

The excitement of the harvest season has permeated the fabric of history since the agriculturally based societies were first established. Having weathered the delicate beginning of the planting stage and found mercy from the myriad catastrophes that could befall the crops, Lammas heralded the onset of the time of tremendous work met with equal reward. Wheat is thought to have been the first grain to translate out into deliberate agricultural production and the festival of the wheat harvest was of great significance.  […]

In my last energy update, I discussed the numerical signs and synchronicities that confirm you are aligned with and entering the 11:11 portal. Such signs included seeing 1111 on license plates, 11:11 on clocks, any repeating numbers, as well as ascending sequences, such as 123, 456, or 789. These signs indicate that your inherent spiritual impulse has been initially awakened leading you on a journey to return into full alignment with the light and embody your  soul as an anchor of 5D unity consciousness.  […]

Indigenous Zodiac Correspondences

Animals are an important part of Native American culture and there are representations of just about every animal imaginable in the symbolism of Native American horoscopes. We’ll focus primarily, in this article, on the animals most closely associated with birth months, in other words, the zodiac of Native American tribes. Similar to the Greek horoscopes that we use today, Native American tribes held the belief that the time of year a person is born into will directly affect a person’s personal characteristics. Similar to the animal symbols of the modern horoscope, the Native one is also represented by animals. Here is a list, by month, of the animals and their traits. […]

Card of the Day – Knight of Swords – Monday, July 30, 2018

As we approach month’s end, I am sure most would say that recently life has felt like a veritable sh*!storm, full of obstacles and challenges, and all you can do is keep battling your way through the energies. The month will be ending with a void-of-course Pisces Moon, so, while you may be chomping at the bit to move forward, it looks as though you may need to wait until August 1 when the Moon will be in impulsive Aries. Any sudden moves on your part, without forethought now, are likely to be met with more obstacles and challenges.

Considering how badly  you wish to move forward, and are willing to rise to every challenge you meet, you may need to hold back, at least until tomorrow. Remember, everything changes and nothing stays the same. The Knight of Swords has a tendency to do things first and just run headlong…

Card of the Day – 9 of Cups – Sunday, July 29, 2018

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

Hmmmm…seeing this today makes me wonder a bit, and prompts me to say be careful what you wish for. The 9 of Cups has long been considered the wish card of the Tarot, and, while everyone loves to see it show up, I do feel it should come with a caution today.

We are on the flip side of the longes Lunar Eclipse of the century, and currently have six retrograde heavenly bodies with which to deal, so making a wish may not be exactly the right thing to do at this time. I do not feel it is possible to make an informed wish, if there is even such a thing, since the energies will be fluctuating until early September. That does not mean that a wish can’t come true today, and I sincerely hope for everyone out there that one does, and it leaves you feeling pleased as…

Card of the Day – King of Wands – Friday, July 27, 2018

Full Moon blessings, everyone! Today is the Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse at 4° Aquarius, otherwise known as a Blood Moon, and this one is being touted as the longest Eclipse of the century. Our amazing King of Wands comes to us today, courtesy of Erik C. Dunne, of Lo Scarabeo fame, and this deck, Tarot Apokalypsis, is nothing short of spectacular; it is my go-to deck for intense readings such as those involving eclipses.

The King of Wands is the “boss man”, not one to be in the trenches side-by-side with the underlings, rather he leads the pack, and for good reason. He possesses that uncanny knack to know what needs to be done, how to delegate the tasks involved, and any other leadership qualities of which you can think. Remember, this is a powerful Eclipse, and you are being called upon to make changes in your life, hopefully…

THE GAME OF PERCEPTIONS

Camelia Elias's avatarTAROFLEXIONS

I have a weakness for the Japanese because I find that they are crazier than myself. That is, I would say that and think that, if I played any identity games – which I don’t. But others think I do – which is amusing.

Let’s see a couple of examples:

As it happens, while I sit on top of a mountain in Norway, a whole shipload of Japanese stuff is being prepared for me, so I can get it by the time I’m back in Denmark in September.

A friend in Kyoto who has an eye on all things tarot, art, kimonos, iron pots, and other peculiar antiquities, is sending me gifts and other things I ordered myself as part of a collector’s sale.

In the process, Japanese paper gets thrown in, along with the request that I provide my measurements. My work is popular in Japan, I’m told, and…

BRB, wiping the drool away.

Is there anyone on the planet who wouldn’t eat chocolate for breakfast if it was actually considered “healthy”? This Zucchini Bread With Chocolate Sweet Potato Frosting, from the decadently nourishing Chocolate Every Day: 85+ Plant-Based Recipes for Cacao Treats That Support Your Health and Well-Being, seems too good to be true, but it ticks all the boxes: gluten-free, refined-sugar-free, vegan, and packed with hidden vegetables.  […]

A look to the past reveals some of the most important plants used by Eastern woodland tribes – and an inestimable connection to nature.

My adventure into the historical uses of many Native American plants began when Maine native Kerry Hardy, author of Notes on a Lost Flute: A Field Guide to the Wabanaki, presented a program for Western Maine’s Greater Lovell Land Trust, billed as “Native American Plant Medicine” last summer. So many plants and so many uses! I was intrigued to find out more about these plants and explore the wealth of medicinal knowledge from Eastern Woodlands tribes like the Mohawk, Wyandot {Huron}, and Iroquois. From Hardy’s work, as well as from the research of author Charlotte Erichsen-Brown, I enjoyed a glimpse into how these tribes looked to nature for healing – and how early pioneers benefited from their knowledge.

Daily Tarot | Card of the Day – 10 of Wands – Tuesday, July 24, 2018

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

Are you feeling bogged down with too much responsibility? Too much to do? Today’s 10 of Wands is basically here to serve as a final warning of the impending Mercury retrograde which will begin in two short days. Mercury is slowing down now, and Mars is already retrograde, so the chances of you feeling overwhelmed in some area of life are pretty good to say the least.

You always here me say to lighten the load once Mercury enters shadow as it prepares to retrograde. Taking on too much can only create problems in the long run. Maintaining a lighter schedule to allow for Mercury’s shenanigans gives you more opportunity to focus on all of the re- re- re-‘s coming your way. Remember, this is not a time for new ventures. Mercury will resume direct motion on August 19, followed by Mars returning to direct motion in its exalted sign…

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

The Page of Wands has become one of my favorite cards over the past year or so. The Pages are the Messengers of the Tarot, bringing news and the promise of new beginnings. This Page is extremely creative, inspired, and indicative of change; the news which can come at this time can be exciting to say the least, the type of news that makes you kick up your heels and dance.

There is a new path available to you, the question at the moment may be whether or not you wish to take it. This is the most passionate and energetic of the Pages, and may have you looking over whatever comes your way now and how it can play out for you.  The scent of change is in the air, and it is up to you to pay attention and follow through on the message received.

DAILY TAROT | Through the Eyes of Tarot – Sun in Leo – July 22 through August 23, 2018

Turn on your heartlight and let the healing begin. There is a sense of betrayal around your wishes, hopes, and dreams, but that is only for the moment. It is possible that you are feeling as though the Universe is not allowing you to achieve your true identity, but this is only how you feel. You do have everthing you need to create the life that you wish. Remember, that during this time, while the Sun is in Leo, Mercury and Mars are both retrograde, and we will have seven retrogrades taking place at once, for a short while. Do your best not to let your focus to be toward things which did not turn out in your favor, rather turn your attention to all of the possibilities which exist before you with that which remains.

Along your way, there will be surprise events, and revelations as well. You may…

Are you ready for your future? Ready, or not, it is on its way! You can not make it arrive any quicker, but you can prepare for the parts of which you are aware. This is somewhat of a common-sense card at times. Compare it to knowing you are taking a vacation three months from now. Will you wait three months, and then just shove a bunch of clothes in a suitcase? Or will you take the time to research your destination, so as to get the most from the time spent there. Having knowledge of the culture, the climate, special events, and anything else which may pique your interest, is all part of being prepared so as to have the best possible vacation.

Perhaps your future holds more serious endeavors, and a vacation is not part of the equation, there is progress here to be made on your behalf…
