everybody this is %HESITATION Erin and Liz the creators of the Grateful Dead tarot deck and the reason that were %HESITATION releasing this on a Monday as opposed to like a regular Friday interview episode is what we did here with Erin and Liz is we all sat down and we did a terrorist thing for the year to come for the entire no simple road family and %HESITATION I just thought that this would be a good Monday episode for everybody and %HESITATION yeah I mean we use the Grateful Dead tarot deck obviously because Erin and Liz are the creators but this deck and if you listen to the show

the energy that we have all spent our lives following around loving and listening to and so this deck speaks really loud and %HESITATION we thought that it would be super rad actually Mel had this

ours and ours alone there also for you and I would hazard a guess to say that when you listen to this you're gonna find some synchronicity isn't strangeness and wonderful information and I'm super

love it ladies would introduce yourself to everybody so they know what's going on okay I am I am the author of the Grateful Dead kero %HESITATION I am an astrologer and tarot reader I'm a dancer because yogi mother and we don't know what else I live in Maine and I love the the Grateful Dead no love live music usually in the morning and your good friend yes Sir that in there that's nice I do try really do she's a keeper sorry I agree yeah I say yeah I am Erin and I'm the co creator of ritual that Ciara I the product designer and illustrator I'm not and L. I'm currently I am the head textile designer for any brand called the hippie shake and %HESITATION do a lot of other site art projects and am moving back in June ze now legal cannabis space because I kind of got kicked out by the D. eight years ago some other news Asaram Yang add the Grateful Dead Charo and the website is that over the years since we last spoke with you listen I did two courses are six classes each one in the minor arcana and then one in the major and we have added all those videos there's downloadable add journal pages and some and late last those are now available on our website as well and you can either do the whole she bang up once or we do have like a payment option on those and then the big news is that for those of your listeners you have already purchased D. box set or those who have been waiting to purchase said we have made the decision that future %HESITATION she care version of the Grateful Dead tarot deck will not be a box set and so we've heard from the community like lots of people love the like luxury product and that was the point of making the box that was to have you know really high end luxury collectible yeah I I we also have heard feedback that not all members of our community feel like they can truly afford it so we have decided to make this version of the Grateful Dead box set limited edition %HESITATION well that's it know more about that no more keepsake box rear end table %HESITATION the Buck of course we'll still be as robust as it is with all of this is writing but we made move and shoot paperback versions that the bug the current book is hard cover perfect storm bound with like a ribbon marker and it is in the liner notes that its first edition so %HESITATION and then even the deck itself probably as we move forward you may make some changes to that to really really make sure even if it's just color changes are or maybe change the back designed just to make sure that the people who do you invest in the box set that you are merely light that's it limited edition my sold out it's sold out and we're over halfway through the session yeah well you know it's it's we've said this melon I like we have done readings for listeners and stuff and and this isn't a sales thing this is real like this deck is it I after thinking about it a bit I I think it's because of our connection with the music N. our connection of with the energy of the Grateful Dead and and its iconography that this deck speaks louder than any Pterodactylus with like I worked with the toss that for really long time and the writer weight and I'm even a member of the O. T. O. select the top deck mental lot to me N. N. I had a lot of connection to it but I never experienced that deck speaking quite so eloquently as this one does and and like this one kind of cuts to the heart of the matter really quick where other stuff can be kind of ephemeral you know what I mean other decks can be ambiguous Sir lofty there's a lot of interpretation this is just like boom it lays it down for you in a in a really beautiful kind of away sorry about that something that I know of a raisin in my %HESITATION mindset as I I'm like what is I was not a professional energy healer or reader prior to creating this stack I mean I've read Charles for myself and friends since I was a teenager I was well versed in what it all meant or whatever but as I've nearly trial by fire because Rony just decibels in concerts and just reading for strangers over and over my concept %HESITATION our work shows like quantum physics it's like every thing in the world is swimming in the same energy Pullman breakdown every solid thing that you see to the smallest particles were all just made out of the same stuff including the back including us and the only thing really functioning is energy and so that is why you know why have these wild experiences at concerts where the singing route card will come out that day and then like the next day it'll be a different cards for multiple people like Beyonce as Jackson and so I kind of wonder if one of the reasons that I don't know if you read off some other debts as well but both or all of the creators of the judex you mentioned are kind of long past even though their energy is still present in the world because energy doesn't disappear Liz and I are not only very much alive right now part of your community well maybe you know maybe that has something to do with the all of that is that you're grabbing me mill crossing who are you currently I think that's a super interesting thought Erin I hadn't actually thought about that what's that not not only the connection maybe the music but %HESITATION the connection to the community itself right into like us as being members of that community and the way that that translates to I don't know maybe like a more adequate one essay interactive but that's what's coming through I like make up more easily accessible like energetic more alive yeah a lot quite literally what's up you know what what got you over Clinton it felt like truth when you said that and I was thinking alike you're right like there's this incredible piece of art that you both put into this world and since we had you on the show we've met you we've hung out with part of seeing each other at the show's met your kids and stuff like there is a deeper meaning for us having these cards three of us then just we bought these decks because we thought they were cool we are literally supporting our sisters and like feeling the energy that they put into these cards every time we pick them up and then since Erin and I have been reading together for some of our listeners eight it's never hit me the wood lake we're doing you know readings together which we've done that before but it's not a thing we have always done so it's these messages are hitting it like it's helping us speak better as a couple to the the reading better the the like the deck is it's helping us to like get our point across or a not our point but like our %HESITATION interpretation so much easier and and hit like really strong and you saying that Aaron really just made me like you are very much alive and well and that the prime of your lives and have so much to say and still experience and do and to have something like this M. as a companion for you lake like I'd look at her %HESITATION deck like a like a scarf that you don't late leave anywhere you bring with you all the time and that's what it's been for me and it it just like east like again you saying that just really hit home for me that that's that's it we're sharing your energy and your so vibrant and so it's so loud and it also going back to what you said about everything is energy and if you break it down to its smallest part like everything is connected and it's all kind of the same suit I said that exact same thing to the last person we listen to we we read for almost word for word what you just said and that right there is testimony to the power of the thing and the reason I said that to the person that we're reading for was to they had never had a terrorising before and I could tell that they were a little bit we've not weirded out but like it was spooky you know what I mean apprehensive not upper hence it just it was spooky and like I wanted to demystify it immediately like there's no who do going on here this is energy that we're talking about this is there I mean you know what I mean I didn't not I no early signs I mean I've been using that as a way to like rope and there's a certain demographic that seems to never want to take the free one card all and I tried to %HESITATION you know make them a little less nervous and then I also say you know there are people out there and you know I'm not gonna deny that they truly believe it that I can speak to the data that can see other rounds and they do use tarot cards and I'm sure that it becomes an even more powerful tool in their hands but like anybody can read tarot because we're all in this energy and it's really not a %HESITATION description of the future it's like you're on a pass at every moment of every day of your life and every moment that passes couldn't tree branch off to the left or the right or straight ahead and the tarot is a snapshot of that fork in the road right now right right right now if you decide to not try to listen to some of the underlying things that are happening and you decide to just stay straight I had called these are probably some of the things that might happen in the future but if you want to say %HESITATION well if I keep you know trying to manipulate these people around me in this relationship you know that maybe that's not a good idea then you know you're going to take some some of the advice or objects that are being presented you know grab a left hand turn and change the path that you're on and that's what Charles ballot it's kinda late here is a snapshot of that here and now and because you have a snapshot you can see a probable outcome but if you decide to make a choice with this new information you know how you can change the path you're on while that's that's really well said that's really really cool and I love that like making it more scientific to demystify stuff I am all about magic I love it it's my life but there's a time and a place there's balance and being able to see both sides of it and have it be as Wu and and cookie as you wanted to be and to be a scientific as you want to be there's a very there's a there's a middle point there that middle road that like that encompasses the whole thing and that's not is moving towards magic magic gives moving towards science the more we learn the more we realize that like everything is like so magical lakes you now geometric patterns and flowers and stuff like that shit is crazy magical but it's also a sign I saw this is this is stupid but I saw a picture of this guy like bent over like the letter C. looking at his phone and somebody laid the golden mean over it so that perfect spot just everything you know okay it's everywhere you can't escape even the dude leaned over looking at this phone so what were you ladies thinking about doing with our decks tonight I thought it would be fun to do it for a year to come for two thousand twenty three name down let's do it my thoughts would be you know we all have our tax so we can maybe take turns shuffling the playing cards and just trust if we happen to pull the same car we can just kind of work with that and you know when we pull card we can go around and and just for maybe a few minutes on each card and talk about %HESITATION what insights we have and then maybe at the end of it piece it together and that was two thousand twenty three look away okay like you hold January hello where we all pulling for January like it could get expensive yeah I think so yeah let's let's go around and and and one person on the January and someone else would be February before we get started one shuffling because that they were it yeah I would just want to say that thank you again to you ladies because this is brought this back into my life and it really hit home what Erin said about the connection at that all those other doll the other dacs have been around for a long time those people are around the created out of that just dawned on me when he said that it's like I got to meet you both on the line in our online world first and then get this into my hands and then meet you in person so it really has much more Vereen and life to a and everything and I just that does that thank you for what you created for the world and for me to bring this back into my life I'm still dabbling I just do it for myself I haven't done it for anybody but it's a concert sits on my on my table in my room all the time and never gets put away and it's it's that just that that connection that when Erin said that it's like it's like wow that is another part of this this is from this is from our sisters there are very much alive and very involved in this world in this community in the scene and our lives yep so yeah and it's telling that the archetype of the universe right which hello things like the writer Winnie %HESITATION but this is you know unless it's like a to stop the latter from that it's like we we we have that strong foundation and incredibly strong like story that was put together by those you know brilliant creators on and not informed that's a long winded the brilliance and magic and mystery that was grateful that that is a great look at the next election cycle tree keeps putting out these beautiful branches yeah I feel like we're just so honored to be a single branch on that treat your knowledge this is communicate just keep everything back and giving back and giving back throughout my life I mean it's insane I just started out library forum here and what stock about grateful that Jarrell what you know what is what is grateful that I have to give a Caroline this that and the next thing and the woman who introduced me was like you know I'm a dad had to I saw them a bunch in like the seventies she's like but unlike Aryan they didn't change my life bye it really sounds like they changed Aaron's life and I'm like did that really honestly my whole life it's just from buying like skeletons in the closet like thirteen or fourteen years old and I'm going to show in the late eighties and then it's just been all of it even after Jerry died and I went on I don't think I would have never done that if it hadn't been so grateful that even though it's a different band and it's still also frigging intertwined it's insane I mean my husband and my children like really yeah it's it's crazy when you sum it up like that with a little specific things that the dead has afforded you US everybody everybody would be doing this for us but that's why yes Aaron and Aaron whenever you guys Aaron I automatically make way so god bless Mel do you hear the an error that so you want to like start with Mel and work your way around let's take a minute just hold your tax in your hands close your eyes and take a brother to win that I always feel like it's like so important to just really ground into the car and just breathe that in the and I always just make sure I have it sounds weird maybe but a little bit of of the the doctors here it's with us it's it's it's it wants to do this with us right I do tend to think of it as sort of a living living a source of of connection inside and so on and that connection it don't wanna be frivolous or casual too much but at the same time it's not make it heavy or overbearing so I always just check in with that check in with my heart and make sure that yeah this is this is a lion then this is what we're doing tonight it feels good to means one more deep breath together and hail so Max Hey a whenever you're ready Melanie love the idea of starting right you know when you put the card for January I mean reading reversals are just operate do you ever pose a card you decide how you but yeah I mean the the tricky thing with with the cards I could be a whole podcast on its own first my caustic I never read very well okay I don't often with this one the queen of bears has appeared today %HESITATION ready of what do you describe the card for everybody listen okay so the queen of bears that earth card she the queen is standing I'm near a river looks like with flowers and even like a little %HESITATION rabbit besides she's holding onto a bear's hand and it's looks like it could be dusk or early morning and there is a comet or a shooting star behind her %HESITATION visible and the sun is again it's kind of a weird position in the sky so it looks like it could be you know going down or up and then the roses kind of frame the entire card %HESITATION the colors are like pastel league kind of colors like lavender and like of blues and peachy kind of color it's beautiful it's a beautiful feeling card it we are is Biafra jade merchant's daughter from mountains of the moon even also on her on her %HESITATION dress she has the earth growing on her dress so she standing in the earth and it looks like it's almost a bit her skirt is mimicking the earth thank she so part of it that there's really no delineation between earth and her and so to me this and she's also got a bird on her shoulder which I did not mention earlier that's the Kerry and crow so you know to me it yes it would speak in a rooted as she just seems very rooted and she seems like well she's the queen so she's got this little baby bear and she's holding his hand and it just feels like she's you know teaching him the ways of the land and %HESITATION you know she looks very regal clearly she's a queen but she's like her stature is she's not seated she still active so that's another point to you know a lot of times queens are sitting on thrones she's active she's near river there still lots of life happening around her and she's in the midst of it because like I said it could either be day to night or night today and so it just feels that she's kind of %HESITATION even though she's standing still in this picture it feels like there's a lot of growth and motion and movement since so for January %HESITATION well I think what comes to mind for me is is that that self care piece like empowerment %HESITATION taking care of ourselves tending our our our practical realities you know not taking things for granted in life like you know like he's %HESITATION like you said like connecting to the lands right connecting not only to the land of the earth with the land of our bodies and like routing into %HESITATION those practical things assisting yeah because it feels like we with the barely she's like teaching him you know maybe like she's up to me this is like the armored Vella you know the three o'clock in the morning when you wake up and you do your spiritual practices you cleanse you do things again like the the landscape of your body is what you tend to in addition to the earth I feel like in in direct relation to know simple road and the three of us and the show this card is speaking to like paying attention to home yeah I'm nurturing the material stuff that we are going to have time for once summer shows up again %HESITATION this is like paying attention to %HESITATION taking care of ourselves like you said physically spiritually emotionally being home being routed being grounded time to be inside hunkering down with the winter outside like January is a time for us to be together as a family to get our mo Jo right to be able to go back out into the world in the summer to bring the magic that we have as the three of us to the community that makes you know you're not up for me this card sometimes is there's the J. merchant's daughter and there's the marsh king's daughter right right Eric it's time to matter you know and it doesn't matter whether you're the wealthiest one or like you're like living in a in a literal Bach you know there is like something connected there you too being in your place of belonging and being who you are and routing into that comes comes through really strong and mountains of the moon is such a rental of a song in many ways %HESITATION it is time to matter you know it's time that we make the choices that matter you know for ourselves you know her body is for our our inner landscapes I mean I love this card for January for one I had the year twenty twenty three I mean twenty three is such a mystical number this is going to be an important you're asking for my own self I'm not I turned fifty in January congratulations thank you I which is like a big deal and I love this card this is you know the queens are very much the emotional of the court cards used this is speaking to everybody listening right now this is a card of self or someone close to you with the court cards and this is you know an emotional card because the queens are water and emotions and it's also the earth parties the pentacle it is the card of work and home life and this is somebody or party yourself that you need to develop to realize that sometimes the way we show up for ourselves and others is not just always being in the overtly emotional but like president in a way that you are chair taking as well that you know you're a little bit no nonsense this January you know and the other thing I love about this card is the carrying crawl on her shoulder and so it's also a really great courage for ladies who always insists that the Grateful Dead tarot kept coming to her at night like a boss the old crow that when you get out of her head Arafat all right all right yeah it reminds me too of and I know that the queen like that the self but it reminds me of myself with my grandson he's here right now and pounding on the roof above yeah and just realize when you have a grand baby it makes you realize all the things you want to improve on yourself so that you can show them a better way and that's what this card shows me like this joing them how to how to be better always you know like even if you're not there you're in how to be better leading by example by like doing this is simple shit like exercising yes the right stuff yes taking your data with and he'll think tank in your own medicine none of us wanted I want to January it feels like nurturing love coming through trying to get a little real yeah right %HESITATION I. women of the real tough but also like loving yeah tough living yeah I love love a show ratio we moved to February you have your I was great this is fun it is fun thank you for recommending this so much I am excited to do the year to come collaboratively to just hear Aaron %HESITATION I love the queen rooms for February which one is a clean win of rose yeah yeah that was my bottom card when we came down here okay was it yeah we're going to see is already follow and %HESITATION tell us about it all right she is seated in this beautiful what do you call a state not a stump it's the base of a tree that's been formed into a throne and she also okay it's a stump and she has the carrion crow sitting on her while her own as well he is there Chillin her one toe is in the water of the motion and her other foot is firmly rooted on the land and she has the size behind her so she has been at work doing the harvest she is holding a beautiful bouquet of roses in her hand and you can see the tilled earth behind her with the crows back they're doing their job in the fields and also the sky has them in there as well there it's not a completely clear sky in this card there are some clouds in the distance it doesn't look like a storm is brewing but there are clouds on the horizon this card is receptivity empathy and acceptance for February you may receive the medicine that we needed yeah I'm only now she can sit down and have a seat you know the other queen was standing upright and then kind of poison team it's not the carrion crow it's a raisin okay symbol of prophecy and spiritual communication I'm not like that you know they appear similar in the fact that they're sitting on the shoulder like that as well I guess he's on the ground and this is gonna happen that's true and it's the opposite side so we know about this card animals one card is that they were on I I struggled a little to place them because they could have been entered in all winter twenty yeah later that she could have been %HESITATION mountains of the moon and and %HESITATION that means that this is a the wood cutters daughter would have been but instead the wood cutters daughter right we chose to make the clean up process %HESITATION because of our offering to the water in her being like that receiving the water and carrying it to hurt people and offering her silver beads to the stream and and her sort of conscious connection to that that source of water is flowing %HESITATION but it was like a really beautiful %HESITATION connection that the queen of water the queen of roses and so the song is let it grow correct yes %HESITATION starter yeah I think whatever the weather reports he has actually three cards yeah I so I mean if I think about this right like January is that time for like going in word paying attention to and I'm talking about the reading so far going inward paying attention to material needs your physicality your emotional inner world your land your space mmhm February is about the availability of healing and being able to give that to other people M. I. M. I. yeah catching this correctly yeah that's good so the queens are always water but then the roses are water so what you have is W. E. someone order coming into a place where you're really really able to access your emotional space and offer that in an emotional way right last month you were maybe routing your stuff grounding yourself expressing your love by either self care or taking care of others in more of a you know realistic for lack of a better word I'm way but here this is like now you're ready to really show up and you like the emotional work that people meet each you're ready to say I love you you know you're great I'm great you know so February is like a really good month for that I'm an interesting note about that stump thrown that stump thrown actually existed %HESITATION it was on on the lawn of my library here in Woodstock New York and after you just storm this summer I walked by the library I don't know if we got hit by lightning or what but it just crumbled into the earth so now it only exists in the Grateful Dead its energy got released back into the cards why old I think I I thought was interesting is that she has the one foot in the water and then the one foot on the land and then behind her is it clearly looks like she just %HESITATION you know she did some work she told the land but it's kinda looks barren because there's nothing there but in front it's flowing water and she's got a bouquet so this to me also seems like a very balanced like she's there's a balance here she's in the emotion and on the land she's too old and she's got the harvest the birds on the land and they're in the area seems like a very balanced thing that's happening in this car to me yeah do you see that again that same thing if you look for it hello and %HESITATION the major combat the %HESITATION fountain carding you'll see the figure is both on the land and in the water as well as the door white card which is box of rain or the original %HESITATION temperance in which you are balanced you are tapping into your emotional wellspring but you are feeling like you're ready to move forward that you're keeping you know keeping the foot on the ground so you don't get swept away nine I love that plugged in and loose there we go you're welcome the January the queen of bears right which is %HESITATION %HESITATION creating sort of the boundaries that we need within ourselves %HESITATION and then the the queen of roses sort of being the flow right you think of how water is held by like a bass solar pride container and it's like first we have to create the container and then we get to live with what are you doing yeah and elemental Lee it's lighter we had the earth and now we're moving to water so maybe we'll get some spirit here yeah and it's breaking yeah right at like like I'm too strong boundaries can become really like yeah regedit but the water keeps everything a little bit you know I motion accuses adaptable yeah okay sorry apple watch no I let me she's like maybe we'll get did you buy your car yeah you know the little maybe we'll find more out about the water and I pulled the river yeah yeah so and okay hi so now we so far have the card that Arent told when we all first started and the card that I pulled them out faster apple pulled that one yeah I bought the printer apple pulled the queen of roses and that was my bottom card when when they're all looking at the cards when he came down yeah so that was that yeah and then now the river again here so when they have something to yeah your account balance yeah okay yeah I don't know what an end well as he says that there is like there's a policy in the background with a it is it the minute it looks like a representation of the moon and the sun like happening there then then there's a rose in the center of it above the broke down palace with all right well looks like ivy roses grown up around it %HESITATION very colorful %HESITATION the mountains in the background %HESITATION and it still has to be a dark sky like the night time in this in this broke down palace and then in the very front is a skeleton like half like half buried %HESITATION half on earth half full half empty are we want to look at that car yeah and I'm please interpretation what is the song broke down palace bring up for you what does it bring up what %HESITATION I'd I'd say take that takes me back to childhood like broke down palace and Blake healing and like thinking about things that have been broken in hilly numb and seek in seeking fulfillment in the world nowadays and for like kind of putting things that were broke down and passed behind you and stuff and moving on and letting only rebuilding that policy error in that policy out because it's a what do you want to do with the beautiful palace if it's broke down you want to fix it and make it beautiful again to have been invite people in and especially yourself yeah yeah and if it's too far gone you how do you rate be set right how do you let it go and yeah and and allow yourself to flow with what comes next what I'd like but like the skeleton being half you know it's to me that's kind of the half lane how are how are you gonna look at that as a half buried as it happened %HESITATION it's kind of like the glass half full also about making decisions I love that yes loading kind of in the river but he's also is the same thing %HESITATION is you floating you know and that's the struggle of this card in the traditional tarot it the death card it usually scares people but it's not you know like you're going to die like something in your life is gonna die and are you going to fight that change or are you going to get in the river and let it carry you towards the palace you know how are you gonna let it here well you are the water's gonna heal you are they gonna drown you and it's kind of what he's that type like I say that there's a decision like to be made there it's like when are you gonna look at this well you can look at it like he's floating in the river toward the palace or floating your way palace and I think it's completely one hundred percent up to him which way the water is flowing out of that %HESITATION yeah I in relation to the month of March how would we look at this maybe letting go you know letting go of of something there they'll be transitions right there will be things in our lives that now that we've gone through this it sounds like we're gonna be embarking on a little personal healing journey you know again with the queen a pentacle strengthening our interior landscape the queen of roses and using us with emotional and spiritual healing and then and then now we're ready to release those old patterns you know those old stories those old probe that broke down palace that we've all been attached you that's been holding us back for so long you know as a collective I want to say something about that about collective if you're listening to this right said that this isn't just for us this reading is for you to you are like we were saying at the beginning of this everything is energy we are all one community and we're all basically reflections of each other and so we are standing in for you the listener having this reading done for us for you to is applicables this is to us I guarantee you that guys that are listening will find parallel and synchronicity in what we're talking about two and that isn't you trying to find meaning where there isn't that's dhistech speaking even through us the way that it does so if you're listening be along for the ride too this isn't you're not a spectator your participant and I know I know speaking for Erin and I we would love to hear like if you have a really beautiful experience with %HESITATION the cards or you know this reading we went we would love to know yeah one thing I do love about this card is that you know we just mentioned it could be floating either way but the way that the palaces it looks like it's decked out in like party favors the weight the roses and the like the vines it looks like confetti or some kind of %HESITATION AV site ma'am but then also too early downstream yeah like balloons and crumpled up your whole body leave this broke down I mean that's inside of the darkness and the light that's reflecting on the skeleton from that sun just leads me to believe that it's in constant motion this card it's just not static death is not the end yeah I need to look like a nineteen seventies black light poster %HESITATION %HESITATION %HESITATION yeah okay only and I was like well I'm gonna make the skeleton neon blue and everything super bright that's the first thing that jumps out on it all right mill it's going on no I thought yes yeah sorry I think the other thing that's coming up for me with that card %HESITATION I'm completely drawing a blank now that I thought that %HESITATION you know what it is it's still there at mama mama many world I've come since I first left it's ME each go through so many incarnations ourselves we have to we're left living and dying every moment %HESITATION you know and and so it's tuning into that process of water we now ready to release right it's like what world are we are we now entering its me let go of this Old World without my got it which brought leads you go next that was the problem all right let's see I'm gonna go back to we had a difficulty everybody I apologize we are going back to April page a bowl right the page of balls right so the pager falls is is a core card court Carter people often sometimes ourselves and sometimes there are other people will bring this energy into my life %HESITATION the page is the energy of the earth the element of earth but it's also the energetica of childhood of new beginnings of starting over a bowl is is representative of the fire and so we have a lot of passion with this card we have a youthful figure leaning on a very large bowl and there's flowers in bloom around her and light and it's all very dynamic energy %HESITATION the card the song that goes with this card is ramble on rose which is a very like one goes up one goes down take you to the leader of the bands right she wants to move she wants to experience all that life has to offer the good and the bad but because of that not even see that comes with childhood there is an energy of %HESITATION it'll too trusting or little to %HESITATION just like wet behind the ears maybe that's a weird way to say that but it's like %HESITATION we're testing our wings for the first time so we've we've created this new container of ourselves we've written release the old story and now is the page comes in in April we are super ready to like launch pad into life and yet it's important that we honor that the earth all the men of the page and remember to to stay grounded right %HESITATION to not necessarily leave before we look we're definitely gonna love we're not going to leave but we want to do that we want to look too we might have a little bit of a plan it is %HESITATION read Risi this is nuts so April is the beginning of festival season okay this is the beginning of us so like January February was all about like you here nurturing working on ourselves that then you know working through the letting go and now it's time to move back out and this card falls literally in the month when we are physically moving back out into the physical world with no simple road right and it's raining the earth comes back thank you now right spring and our opportunities past I I'm not gonna say we I would say yes to everything I'd be like yes we'll go yes will be at that festival yes we'll go and when everything would be done at the end of the season we would be burnt right and we have had a conversation between three of us this year of like when these opportunities come up this year we're going to talk about it we're gonna pick the ones that we all feel like we want to do it do you know what I mean the most we're not just going to do it because we can we're gonna do it because we want to and so I think that's exactly what this card is representing for us yeah you have wild that changes balks her name yeah I mean most of the pages there like you know there's four stages of the court cards and so on Liz said you know this is kind of like the early childhood but if you notice in the cards the figure is standing and she's kind of daydreaming she's leaning on that well she has this massive so the bolts are creative manifestation and it doesn't mean like artistic manifestation of what can I mean you could be an accountant and that could be your creative way of living right that's your manifestation and so she doesn't have that ball in her hand but when you see the other three bolt court cards they all have to bolt in her hand in some way she's leaning on this massive buildup of creative manifestation and she's maybe a little on right she hasn't quite decided where she's taken that gold and which direction she's going and so that speaks really well to kind of like what you were saying like it's an opportunity to kind of for everybody to reflect and a lot of people's lives %HESITATION moved into a more active space kids get out of school all some people don't have work in the summer where people like to plan their vacation days or whatever it is so you know this is a great cards for April sh the kind of really be like I have all these things I want to do let me get so best you know let me let me get that pulled into my hand and decide which direction are moving on I mean fire is about harnessing the wheels are missing your desire you know what it what are you putting out into the world like what force with India are you channeling to create he's asking you gotta get grounded through that page energy you know for a child it might feel like you're on you know the parent was like no you can't do that no you can't do that for us it's more like how do you know how we meet the demands of the world while simultaneously you know following our creative instincts often yep she does just fine on the way April yeah okay so I love this car forward this is great this is a really nice little reading we have happening I just called the seven of the bears again bears is %HESITATION are packed into cold it's the earth element it's work I'm and I am trying to remember this song it is the pride of Cucamonga quakes it is an interesting song you know it's a little look at the emerald triangle of northern California and what what they're doing up there right and and so in this card we see a bear and the thing looks a little tired %HESITATION they've got a site cursed back %HESITATION apparently filled with seeds and they are planting the seeds and be right behind the Barrett you've got some sprout laying spend some bigger flowers and then surrounding the bear in the background JYJ garden of sunflowers with all these tiny little happy there he says and there's a radiant sun in kind of a hot pink and orange in the background and the bear is blank not paying attention to any of back end so really like the message of this card here is like seven is like a leveling right it is the number of extension and when we get this card it's a little bit I will not warning that kind of like a lake Hey there little bear you're working your butt off and you have a she this beautiful garden in your life through your work and you're not taking the time to realize that you have leveled up you're still working no one's asking you stop working but we are asking you to turn around and appreciate the things that you have brought into your life your home or work aspects so it's kind of a great great card to follow %HESITATION you know how old the bolt the pager bolts in which you know you're a little I'm focused you're kind of like where am I putting my energy and may is saying you know what we want you to I appreciate where you've already put your energy name %HESITATION return to the earth element you know we started in January with earth now we're revisiting earth element interesting about that card is is the way that bear had his back turned to the harvest also kind of reminded me of rose Ramblin rose in the age that page of balls in the way she was leaning on the ball and nonsensical supporting her right now it's like the speaker of the bear is like doing all this work right it's like a lot more out the earth is a less active element you have to move it you know whereas fires like super active in and of itself right I know Hearst that he's pulling those seeds out of has the ball on it yes I %HESITATION same coloring yeah that sprinkle it into the ground and is totally ignoring like all this great sunflowers that have come into his life because of that all right happens like that you suggest that it's maybe a little warning card right it's like a kid like mine take us back to what you want to create yeah I think when we get further into the year we lose sight of like we're happy we made it through another year we're excited about a new beginning now it feels like we're in the year again and we got all the stuff that we had just gone through and all the things that we planned that are now actually coming to fruition said this is a good heads up like look you have done enough you don't need to keep going you are going to keep going clearly because he's got this person he's got his seeds but take a look around you know my my son is twenty and he just moved out N. he actually is the the reason that we're doing this podcast thank he bought me a microphone for father's day was like you guys should do a podcast and then this happened N. or a he said something to me my daughter and him both said you know everybody we know like is talking about starting podcasts and like it's so hard N. you guys have fucking killed it like five years you've done the show and look at all the stuff you've done and just like laying it down because they see the other side right that nobody gets a seat right of like how hard I but I'm working and and how what we're all doing and all of it and it really like rung my bell it was today and it made me like stop in and be like holy shit the I've achieved what I set out to do already it's here like I'm in it and I wasn't seeing it fully like of course I have moments you know what I mean but like to fully be aware of it as it's happening that's wild and it's all because of my kids saying that to me today was like wow and and that's the hard at right now which is kind of cracking me up because when we first started the podcast I don't know if you're recording or not I was like holy shit look at your studio last year when we came out and talked you just picked up a lot in the back room Alex like neon and dark blue LED light artwork so look at your studio look what's happened no you know what what's a I think we all go through different phases err you know of really like oh my gosh we're doing something incredible %HESITATION but one of the things and people %HESITATION log on with us to resume and they're like they're almost always the first thing is like nice studio guides and it's you know it's not about like you know Pat on the back it's like you know what you just said Erin like we were her in this tiny ass room making it happen and having fun and learning and doing great but to to recognize it %HESITATION yeah and we do have a studio now and it's beautiful and like this amazing fish piece that we have with group gifted to us by the artist them himself and like just all the little things are beautiful graceful that tarot deck from our an S. R. family the the big beautiful collector's box and like all these things are are from what we've created and that is it doesn't get old so there's that this card is is extra poignant N. M. the message is really loud and clear okay it's time for it and there is something in it that speaks to me about like when %HESITATION you know you have that flash of inspiration you're so inspired you can't wait and it's going and then and then at some point there is a show where it's like I love this minute you know becomes a little more work in a little more work in that she kind of grinding yeah you know we all have those moments it's like I'm doing what you love at some point when when you turn it into your check Bob Blake it's still a job where yeah and I think that I think gives me that's kind of that's coming up for me is like okay we've we've initiated this new reality right we have you know and now we have to actually kind of put our money where our mouth is and keep going and keep keep plugging away because we might not see the results yet you know the results are there but they're behind their kind of unconscious looking at you know we see them in our our field ahead of us we have to trust that the seeds that we're planting are growing you know and so we have to be aware %HESITATION you know to me of like a negative mindset it's really easy to fall into that like the look on their faces like oh my god the client I'm winning it myself I've been guilty as charged %HESITATION but it's like I mean I think I think that's maybe maybe it is like we we we really have to be aware now of the process that it takes to reach a harvest not just put the seed in the ground will not plan we have to turn that shit we've got to work with us and yes they're growing but they're growing in in the background as we continue to do our work that's not yet harvest but we might feel emotionally and energetically like nothing's happening you know so at some point in the month of April are we in April or may may forest tourist season you know we're gonna have to we're gonna have to kind of put some faith in put some faith in that that the seeds we've sown are riding and we're gonna wanna keep ten we are in Iraq it I don't want to like down play any other time in history but we're in a really active time right now to just overall as far as like the energy the planet and everything that's going on there we are in a very like active if time is fast like things are moving and so what we're planting you got to pay attention you got to you got a ten that garden because it's stuff is sprouts and dies and sprouts and dies it it you know breakneck speed nowadays so I I hear you loud and clear and you keep it up so when we reach when we reach the month of may we're gonna want to keep hang in there okay Lang and those up for you I've got you we're halfway through the year now hello well the queen of roses came to join us for the again is that a lot yeah %HESITATION I don't know why he's three times now during this reading she's appeared but we had her for the month of February and I shuffle my cards thoroughly but between this site we trust you %HESITATION %HESITATION so water of water again %HESITATION I mean it so now we're in June we're halfway through the year wait a minute go ahead but you can't make this shit up I shuffle I shuffled my deck twice since so all three of you have now called the queen she sitting on the bottom that's where she started on the bottom wow okay that yeah non statistical energy weirdness and so people listening we're talking about three separate dax thirty different people at the beginning and February and now in June have all called the queen of roses seven day cards in each of these decks like I mean it well okay clearly we're gonna have to take you know midway through the year is also another time for reflection you know eve you have like the rest of the year ahead of you but you've also gone half of the year and so %HESITATION like I mentioned earlier about the balance I mean you know we're like I said we're right in the middle she's got this balance and it just feels more and more like I'm sitting here she's in an enjoyment phase with her work done seeded enjoying her like she's just looking at the roses she's looking and holding an it it doesn't look like she's giving away or keeping them it just she's like tending to the low yeah created and and you know the bird almost even seems to be in motion they're talking or singing so and think about the song is let it grow again and I just think of like if I'm at a show in the reprise let it grow thank that messages coming through a hardcore at this point like in case you didn't catch it the first time or the second with the love is always busy with cutters daughter to me Ron U. S. so we'll have to get your address like it looks pretty doable well yeah I see now that we you know there I know there I realize they're different flowers right now she's holding the flowers in her lap she's admiring that Sean from lake this is a grind to now I can sort of receipt yeah ours pretty much about receiving and it's also about giving so now we've entered a place where we were able to take the abundance that we've worked so hard to you know what to do it with love right and like this is the problem of like hostile culture we stop what we do because it creates it creates scarcity because when we need what we create you know to provide for us rather than just loving it for what it is right each going back to the why we originally started in the first place so like it seems like this the middle of the year is that kind of reflection place like look he just had this festival and Erin and I will by then we'll have gone to several things fish Mexico Mexico and roses North Carolina like there's lots of things that are coming up so it's here it's like you vote look it's halfway through the year pace yourselves enjoy what you did sit down and look at the smell the freakin roses that's what this is Mel the roses you know it back a little yeah look back give it back talking about like the grind and and losing focus there's a weird thing that happens with no simple road like this show is in agriculture the the the %HESITATION spirit of it is the thing that is independent of the three of us and like all have moments where I've lost my focus and I'm grinding and I'm like why why are we even doing this like nobody listens to the show like what whatever my fucking weird head trip is and the show will come to me and speak through the listeners to me %HESITATION out legitimately like I'll have these moments of just complete out and I'll get five emails in one day of like this episode really turned me on %HESITATION thank you guys so much for doing what you're doing you bless me I was having a hard time to and I'll be like six of them one day an inmate that's the show like literally speaking to me or like will meet somebody at a show that comes dozens just like in two years thank okay I hear you loud and clear yeah I mean so those those moments of of %HESITATION doubt or when I'm lost in the grind this thing has a way of like coming and making itself known it's really cool you know you're doing your soul or so all right July hello sh the big month sunflower yeah and like an auspicious year there have been a lot we've earned it you July is the peach festival month for us so sunflower is well it's the top half of the card is dominated by this amazing sunflower %HESITATION on a blue sky background there's the two characters it's it's the what's the character on the on the left that is %HESITATION there's China cat sunflower in her come on now right and and then on the other side is crazy cat cartoon from the nineteen twenties and his little side I don't remember the master's name right now but crazy cap you can throw laced bandanna instead I have that crazy cat kind of peeking through a tab of acid with the third ice on it I mean that's like our we stand down our right sure and they're standing on them and all of the thirteen point bowl with it %HESITATION darker green and lighter green and then a tower with sunflowers growing all around the outside of the copper down to Lodi and %HESITATION the wall is man made and brick and shows that there is a part of %HESITATION what is so this car is all about kind of like auspicious ness about coming into your own and grasping the magic of your life right so when the original %HESITATION rider Waite deck which is you know so masterfully illustrated that almost all terror attacks play off of that Dagmar Mayer another you have two children dancing in a severity ranking on the ground so this delete armed or the bald circle is kind of like the fairy ring that crazy cat and the China cat are dancing and on the walls symbolizes that the work that you've done to bring this into your life and those other some flowers are kind of representative of again just like the seven of bears the the some flowers that you have grown that there the things that come out of the work that we do and yet the one sunflower is turned back to the sign because it is looking towards the future for the things that are still coming and the connection to the divine well I. can I also see it as like what was idea in the beginning of the reading and planted and then grown has like disconnected into the realm of spirit and is the thing that's actually illuminating everything at this point right the idea I can route and is now the engine right I love that and the way that the the ball is on the on the ground you know and now it's reflected up and stretch and you see like if you look hard time you know now that bear gets to turn around anything and he gets to relax and surrender %HESITATION and I see I love the structure here because it brings me back to the element of earth that we worked hard out in January to create some boundaries and create some structure like this the film it doesn't come without the work that we've done without what we've put into it you know without the solidity that we've created within ourselves it's not knowing yourself you know and now and and really %HESITATION yeah really reaping the harvest not just like money you know or like reward but like hi I see myself in the world the way that I it's like we've worked on that broke down palace and he asked for yeah I was just about to say that apple there's very few %HESITATION truly architectural representations aside from Jeremy it's in these cards and show of the cards that have that is the broke down palace the castle in the broke down palace card and now you've got this temple the copper domed bowtie and so you've gone into that power and created a spiritual temple for yourself well on that note %HESITATION what their dancing it also looks like it could be a ritual like us they've created a circle around them they've got the floating either they're already using their magic and the China cat has a galaxy dress on she's got a mood on her sleeve and they are it almost feels like they're defying %HESITATION the dead to find material and they are in a spiritual plane with I'm wearing a galaxy dress and you're a weird cat man and you know what I mean like it just feels like whimsical and look and you know %HESITATION appropriately light properly fund yeah and if we're talking about getting outfits definitely that on although about the clothes yeah I know Aaron I love all that stuff too yeah one three I am that was one of the finest cards to write in one because it was like I knew where it said but like how do you pull arrest those lyrics in any meaningful way right especially because I was the additional puzzle of not being able to use literal actual so it it just became I don't remember what I wrote at the bottom of the box but it became like a you know like do your own property jingle that it was like funky integration of it that I was hoping to capture the Wimsey place you said so let all the colors of your midnight kimono jingle like pearls three of your silk violin don't worry about what anyone else thinks hello well he's let China cat sunflower was one of my top top top top songs from the Grateful Dead and %HESITATION right doing this card with the dad made me revisit I mean it was one of those songs back when we had C. D.'s and there was an internet and you could just look up the R. X. that you would stop the CD every first so you could memorize exactly what they were saying because it was also kind of like a tsar and like psychedelic and like you know like doing this card it made me realize that even though none of us know what these lyrics need what I need to step to the grateful dead's music we all know exactly what isn't all right apple apple Europe man August August all right no not that one no separate packages already decided if I pull the case you don't okay this one's in the eight of roses hello okay getting the readers like yes okay so okay this this one is a trip also you've got your in the forefront of the card you have your eight roses some very and full bloom are couple hanging in the back not quite they're still growing making their way this also appears like it's kind of like in a ravine %HESITATION at the end of a ravine that it's hard to tell for me on this one looked at this one before whether this is a ravine that's dry it looks like it's partially dried up but there is still some water flowing in in the middle yeah and then there's this bill leasing it is a Skoll moon sign like hybrid happening in in the back of this the let him all my left side looking at the card is the moon the described with it looks like you know you have like the north star and some other things garnered stars going on back there and the moon and then on the right side is like the blaze and sign and the daylight and it is very much blazing arm I did this car I don't know just looking at this now it it to me it's kind of it kind of looks like a tire where where and what now this is August in say August late Laker Hey brings might look like a time for decisions like choosing a path kind of indicts varied split to me lately it's representing day and night this river is it ship of fools no that would have been a good card that so superfluous is probably my single biggest song that I didn't work in okay so I love that song in its dark sable but there are a few %HESITATION very very beautiful great quite make the cut thanks Chad going down the road feeling bad %HESITATION okay mouse tell yeah then open for interpretation that so we look at this as the garden that we've been tending right those those bare flowers and then the the ones that the queen was holding on her lap and then the beautiful sunflower now they've become their abundant right but we've also become perhaps a little bit contact number yeah there's the tangles up you know to me what I always think of what this card is is that this sort of represents the comfort zone the world we're familiar with it's you know other all the roses are red all the forms hope you the same kind of way and yeah there's this whole other part of the world in a place that remains as yet unexplored and it's important to leave the familiarity that we've created behind in order to embark on something new and stretch our comfort zone so that we can create what what that says is so powerful and so dynamic and it speaks of duality and it speaks of life and it speaks of tension and also creation %HESITATION this whole card to me represents a whole journey all in one from everything we've created a floor is %HESITATION R. eight is is to force you know so we have the foundation of the first four and then the second four builds upon that we're really reaching towards something new but we're rooted in what's already been created at and roses are worse the fulfillment of the heart and of healing in our spiritual truth well it's it's almost like really going with the theme that we have kind of been exploring in the other seven months of late what we love start to become a little bit of a stranglehold I always tell people like Liz mentioned the Ford he got two fours think of choosing squares connected at the corner now you've got like an entity symbol right and that energy is moving biofeedback biofeedback and sometimes that's really good sometimes it builds a platform but sometimes it's kind of like a little bit of a live shot you go round looking lower down you know how and so there's nothing necessarily negative about this card because in that our objective red roses really are about true love and there's also a blue roses on our deck that speak to a little bit of the shadow but here they just kind of been come so overgrown you're feeling trapped god you know the one rose that looks like it's about lotus is growing up towards the cliff that goes alongside the dark sea water is always in motion and the tire Jack and this water is dark but there is a cliff to walk along the side of that dark C. and the other better symbology in this card which is dominant obviously the moon and sun scald is that one ever in the tower are you see both the sun and the moon it speaks about the endless potential of the entire universe so you just kind of wanna stick yourself except the fact sometimes the things we love can make us feel a little lunch for acting maybe it's time to go back and find a bit of a new car got it wow yeah it's like we came into our own right with the sunflower like yes here I am but now we have to we have to be willing to grow even farther and say okay like now I you know I can pick up all of it this beautiful like self awareness that I've cultivated but I still have to move forward I can just stay here in this place where I feel like comfortable and content still there's more to it tell us what it is less with regard and %HESITATION in September yes the water I love that car it's truly become %HESITATION one of my favorites and it's in my experience and of course every everybody may have a different one it's become one of the ones that I hold the most often %HESITATION it's one of the more common cards that comes up in reading which to me speaks about %HESITATION a lot of the ways that collectively we're looking for safety you know we're looking for a safe place rather than wanting to arm you know keep doing the work I'm not shitting L. well we access card and I did show thank god way so the longer we're gonna keep we're gonna keep going down the road that %HESITATION September brings more of the same more of the same sort of %HESITATION healing this is a deep journey though you know to be fair like this is not you can't short cut life right you've got to do the work that's kinda shows shows up for me yeah you don't you don't get through the shadow in a month no no no yeah that's so yeah that that looks like a hell of a journey I the river to the river hard of late where do we how do we need to ensure that water in the you know tell us two October who will be employed again really refinance the rest of the year so now you right really go deep on the thing that you love are you leaving at where are you going the world is full of endless possibility is and it's bringing us your October which is another bear cards so we've got a lot of bears and a lot of Rosedale in that stat and I've told the three of bears and this card is when I paint my masterpiece all right now the card shows a skeletal hand holding a paintbrush and he's painting a painting on an easel and there's three little bears and each of them is holding a difference to one's got a bald ones gotta scald one's got a rose and this card is really about the fact that like everybody's love is different everybody's masterpiece is different is your master piece about intellect and air the skull cards as your masterpiece about creating something with love and relationship and your love life like the roses is it about creative manifestation travels so on and so forth with the ball right we're all like a little bear having to find what we love and are passed in light and so after the deep dive of exploring what it is and where we want to go this is the card that we're really going to start the threes are like one is the very start the thought of that too so you kind of meet the energy of the card but when you get just three you got wind chill when you put a third on top like a little upward arrow and you're ready to like move into action while yes I'm getting back to basics in some way yeah it's not it when I think about this in terms of what we're doing this for I feel like there is something that we haven't even we don't even know what it is right now that's coming I could something a direction or it's interesting focus three bears the three bears yeah yeah it I I feel like there is just this is calling from out something that like I can't eat we can't even see well I want to take a stab at it because I love the fact that the little bear down there is holding the rose and hugging it and loving it and I definitely think that would be me and then the blue bears got the bolts and it's kind of like you know whittling it and holding it and then the other bear with the schools being silly it's on top of his head and it really for I I feel like it depicts the three of us and whatever this hand is painting is this fourth empty spot which maybe it's a more for of all of us and that's why we can't see it yet because it hasn't been create a painter whatever the year his is bringing wow yeah yeah I also love that at the bottom of the easel is this scramble of roses still but they've turned hello and just one of them has made it out of the bramble but it still right yeah right now you're gonna hear it out you're going to get out of that bramble you're gonna leave behind the parts you no longer need it and you're going to grow the one that you do oh boy overall it's a good card it combines the action an energy of three with the stability of the force so it's time to you know it's time to put our dreams into motion it's time to integrate what we've learned September wants us to integrate and wants us to start to create a plan for what comes next %HESITATION I love that there exist the streets are wrong or made a problem you know Rome is this ancient beautiful city and it's all those little little bits of rubble you know the brick by brick Rome was built it like you know you said earlier you know you don't just out of work in a month you don't build Rome in a day it's it's about planning and strategy but it's also about moving forward step by step you know and so we're we're revisiting our foundation here I think you were wanting to make sure everything strong and that you know after the deep work that we've done %HESITATION we still truly aligned it we still treat me like %HESITATION connected to our purpose what we're here to create and also Mel you talk about the three bears representing us they are all on the same canvas so they are on the same page literally with all the lake the rose with the heart and this goal with the the thoughts in the bowl with the energy like it really is pretty telling in November V. oh my god no I stopped I'm gonna you know roses no but no no but you remember it I'm Liz I think you were saying that which car comes up for you a lot what was it the one yeah eight roses I thought I was gonna say what card comes up for me a lot but I didn't because we just kind of got side tracked and this is the car that comes up for me a lot three bolts if I get this car so much I love it it is either in readings or in my own reading I have I have ticked this card at least ten times like it is something that I think Liz well I might have picked it when will that at school yeah when we were at school and %HESITATION but so okay to describe the card it's a big this call is the most prominent thing along with three bolts and the school has his mouth open and he the three Walter flying from his mouth and in the opening up his mouth it's like looks like sky but as it or the like the galaxy %HESITATION space and then as the bolts are out the blue gets lighter and lighter until almost blue white and the school is like hovering above it lets water but it's brown water %HESITATION and there's three ships setting out sailing out and the sun is high up above right up at the top so it's not setting and it's not just gone up it is fixed in the sky %HESITATION and so you know working with the energy of the three that you were just talking about yeah and I mean for the for thinking of this is just like again with that three at me Erin an apple and just being what it looks like to me is like all of us speaking our will into existence and finally coming to a place where we know what it is that we want collectively and individually in that collective does that make sense and also the three bomb ships down in the bottom could be like the the shell of what we don't need anymore sailing off into the horizon and speaking something new into being and also it could be that we are we're on the same C. but also going different ways kind like the bears they were I was holding a rose and whatever whatever so you have these different at lake bolts going out in these different directions but still in the same again on the same page in the same what entities song is this card this is there an interesting note on this card in my now ten year old but at that point eight or seven year old daughter through the concept for a few of the cards and this is one of them she would come in when I was working and say what are you working on what does it mean and she would sit down and do some thumbnail sketches on my little sheet that I had set up an apple times they were just better than what I cool and it and now it's exactly that he is now speaking his manifestation including universities almost ripping a hole in your arm and the very high position of the sun is again kind of like a sunflower cars like the auspicious yes like the sun dot is shining down on you for now manifesting your well and in order to do that you need to start talking about your ideas and at the bottom of the card the C. is brown I'm and it is almost like a bad you're not sure is it a river is in the bay it's surrounded by cliffs and mountains and that often in the terror attack symbolizes difficulties and so you've been kind of do I leave the bay do I not is their difficulties you're almost like stuck in sand that's why the well water is brown and this card is saying now you don't have to be stuck what you need to do is start talking about your dreams to bring that to reality tell the universe what you want %HESITATION I love it it's a three following another three zero and and and anything about the first you know a big chunk of the year we have core cards major kind of cards %HESITATION you know if the the repeat of the eight this really needs to carts kind of bring it back down a little they bring it back to you know connect the basics take your taking action being no practical but like like I and what we're wanting to create right there's an energy of interventions both of those cars right now we're ready that we're ready to like put into motion during his home I'm very excited and nervous right pressure the night of bears %HESITATION bears bears bear so this is it this card in the toss deck is one of my favorite cards come it said knight he is seated on a skeletal horse on in the stack %HESITATION he's got his armor on but his visor is up so he is not in battle he has a little bear sitting in the saddle with him and he's got his arms around him he's protecting him and up in the sky is the all seeing eye high %HESITATION the fiery eyed looking down at him and if it's hard to tell if he is standing in the ocean or not %HESITATION on this card I I kind of like to think that he is and %HESITATION the the color palette of the card is really interesting there's a gradient that from the bottom of the car to the top because we kinda dark and murky looking upward to where the the eyeball is is is orangey and brighter so to me it's it's coming out of some darkness into the light in a in a lot of ways and %HESITATION being able to look to the future to to see the good that's there and knowing that keeping your eye on the prize so to speak and knowing that the universe has your back and is looking out for your best interest at the same time and like I said he's got his arm around he's protected but he's not fighting he's his visor is up so he's his vision is clear he can see where he's going yeah yeah help on the way she I mean really deep and rich lyrics to that song %HESITATION and one this is one that like for me like I I felt like I was still lurk like really I mean there's many parts but that it was really learning as you know I wrote it learning as %HESITATION it developed for the dock learning as I would pull it for other people %HESITATION it has a very start the night of bears has a very strong work at you know and he's he's on a mission there something that he is set up to do in it I I'm I look at him down here and this very much feels as a cold body but up here is this this is like you said the others all seeing iris divine self looking back at him and how can he how can unite with that how can he like reach out of his this material body you know and beyond the confines of that structure in into a divinely center purpose in this this combination of earth and fire you know enough earth to ground the fire enough fired a late push the %HESITATION you know it's it's a really powerful the card %HESITATION I just want to mention that we book ended the year with the way we had the queen of bears for January and the night of bears for December this wonder that in there and did that little bear that has been protected now is sitting on the horse and so you know what it feels to me like the bearer has daydream with the queen through this entire year and is now seeing through that I every lake she told them her story the journey was taken on the horse literally but he's sat there with looking at it through the site and one of the things you did with this deck that I really really love and the cut weight the coloring is so similar to the one I'm most cars with each card you gave I'm for the upgrade and the reversal you gave us like three buzz words board highlight our ads and the three words for this Carter discipline determination and ambition and to me those three words I'm can have negative connotations all three of them right if you're too disciplined to determine %HESITATION too ambitious your an asshole right right yeah so there's a a fine line here that that middle middle path again that we're talking about the workers best yeah this is weird we discovered our purpose we'd like to work and now we know where we're going she I also love the fact that %HESITATION that the last car had read fault that we are supposed to be speaking into the universe and now Erin just gave us the three words gosh our our right and Jen right I also love you know it I'm you're now wings spread bright spring from the knights of the sun and it's like we're back to the middle of the summer with the sunflower card right for me this card help on the way means so much may I actually have you on my arm which is a knock off of my dad had to which is the stall ripping added the ace of spades and his said born to lose you got it right before you went to Vietnam and that completely blinded by a booby trap bomb became junkie became a psychologist whatever and eventually died %HESITATION and is buried in Arlington and his graves says in the dark cheese sauce so crippled by three I was blind all the time I was learning and my tax year as the eight has a skull ripping out of the ace of spades but there is a third eye blind eye ball coming out of that stall and it says board just say and so this card means so much to me right and he was such a kind of father like he was that night holding that little bear lake you know some while there's a black version of help on the way the Joe Russo did that is etched in my mind I'll never be able to get out and every time I think of it it brings me back to that feeling of of he feeling that song for the for like not the first time but for in the first yeah the first time I felt it and it just for it does something very special to me too and I totally get it like it's not so deep with my dad but it was just like the feeling of like you know what the dead songs do for you manage just pull out went to this time space and put the stamp on it and now every time you hear it again that stamp comes comes to life looks like it's going to be a hell of a year so okay well let's wrap it up let's see what what you all think for now that we've got everything on the table I don't know if you wrote it down but I did if if you didn't and we can kind of set up my view it for us and then we'll okay so %HESITATION January the queen of bears %HESITATION you know we talked about self connecting and %HESITATION making choices that matter %HESITATION and then we went into February with the queen of roses hello Sir with the queen of roses for the wood cutters daughter being a little bit more balanced and then we went into broke down palace with %HESITATION what card was revoked that's right the river where we needed to make some decisions and some to release some old habits and old patterns to continue to move forward %HESITATION and then we went into the page of bolt into that little innocence like a new beginning of you know that life it's Hey but also that strength that we don't even know that we've got she's leaning on this is humongous bold but not everyone can do that she's got proximity to her %HESITATION okay so then anyway we move forward to the seven of bears realizing that we need to acknowledge %HESITATION and appreciate where we already have put our energy and realize that our harvest is waiting to be picked meanwhile we're planting another one so we need to take stock and realize we've already achieved great feats %HESITATION and then in June when of roses okay so there was the queen of roses again and gosh I feel like with the happened twice yeah okay first okay so %HESITATION you know smell the roses sit back and take stock again kind of like I feel like may in June did the same thing that August and September did you know it's a period of time so maybe you know we're thinking of months thirty days thirty one days but this is a season that we need to go through and that's kind of why it's repeated %HESITATION and then sunflower is finally like Haiti kick back you hang you hung out in the ready to party enjoy the fruits of your labor and it's not like you didn't do anything to deserve it you've got tons of things that you can look back on and now enjoy the magic that you've created %HESITATION and then we go into the age of roses which is going down the road feeling bad and leaving familiarity behind and stepping up to something new and realizing that there's endless potential with that sun and the moon and we must move forward you know and move out of our comfort zone %HESITATION and we're still dealing with that in September we're still realizing like it takes a while to break habits and it takes a while to move forward you know sometimes we think that we can just do it because we know it and sometimes knowing something doesn't always equate right action of so then we get to October with the three of Cutie little bears that you know we're you painting our masterpiece and and we're leave behind parts you don't need and putting our dreams into motion and like actually in creation for this %HESITATION and then November with the three of bolts coming into manifestation and speaking into existence that discipline %HESITATION what else was the other one discipline terminate your determination and %HESITATION she my and discipline determination and ambition and random setting about and then we've got the night of bears we he's the help on the way the the circle is complete we started out with the little bear we end with the little bear the story has been %HESITATION gone through every stage and we were never alone we've always been guided and we've always I want to say one thing when you look at all these cards put together the Hughes are all very similar and so it the end looking Adam it seems very dreamlike so a lot of the energy and this is taking place in the earth but is also very ethereal you know so %HESITATION I guess that's as best as I could sum it up H. not a single stall yeah whoa oh you are so right time to put down the sword stop fighting stop trusting get out of the head again your body and in your heart then your passion you know it was a crazy year of other empowerment also reconnecting to balance you know of how do we live in balance how do we balance our passion with our our our compassion right like how do we %HESITATION how do we do that the hard work that we need to do but also how do we receive when it's time to receive you know there's a there's something about this sort of been slow that it feels like within that that keeps moving us toward a sense of being that night on that horse holding this barely looking at our higher purpose being here now in our bodies and %HESITATION knowing knowing the whole kind of the whole picture that it's not you know %HESITATION back to the scarcity also we talked about a little bit it's learning to ride that wave you know that the there's a flow to it and that we don't have to attach to the highs and the lows we can kind of be be in the process of it of it all as as an observer right he really I thank a message of hate like twenty twenty three is your year to discover your not what other people think don't get caught in your head and I love that it started with one of the bear or cards and and it was one of the bear court cards because they're the only court cards in which you kind of do you see this little journey travel like the river the pink and blue and turquoise river or whatever that flows and flows from the page through the night you're the queen and entertaining it connects all four of them and this well %HESITATION bear gets passed from person to person skeleton discovered armed you know and so it's really kind of your fault that it's like the first card is I'm gonna help you find your path in home and then work and then the night is a lie I'm here I got your work and it keeps going forward together we learned what our next thing that we love that we're passionate in the end we laid this groundwork she earned twenty twenty three to do it you know how it was a real spell Baptist is a great reading looking forward into the new year too that's what it looks like you know is indeed looking forward into the new year it's pretty profound I mean I know we went over and we all set a lot but it's there's a lot here still I really hope that everybody that we listened through all of this that you felt what we are feeling because it's special man and I I want to just say to %HESITATION kind of like what you said earlier it Liz and I just want to say if you felt anything through these cards maybe one of all maybe the whole reading reach out to any of us reach out to Liz reach out and reach out to no simple road we want to hear it we're talking about energy we're putting our energy out there we did this entire mystical reading over if you just let us know what you feel we want what we want this one to be interactive we really do we want because it's not to Pat ourselves on the back it's like a confirmation that we're all on the same path and we're on that we're hearing the same message so that's why we want the you know the back now at the throat wanting the listeners to it is like like I as far as all of us here I'm still kind of the kind of that the learner the the student no I know that's what it's going to say I that's one thing I've learned from the beginning of this and talk to you guys are reading the book the forex that this is not one of those things where you have to have any credentials there is no wrong answer it's interpretation it's like the songs it's like the Grateful Dead songbook they mean so many things to you in different ways and book and can mean different things to different areas of your life different seasons everything terrorism Maisie and it's a tool that is open to interpretation and it's just to help you better yourself yeah yeah I happened to get a glimpse of like you know with sometimes life comes out a side ways and it can be scary and throws you off balance and you know the if you have a little heads up prior it's sometimes helpful you know and this is one of the things I'll say about terror was none of it is set in stone it's fluid it's always changing your life is different from moment to moment so just because you pull cards that say something one way doesn't mean that it's like that's it it's written that you face anything you do it's going to happen like that yeah that's not how this works and like apple just said it's open to and I like what you said earlier Erin about it being a snapshot of the path that you're on so you can see fully and make an informed choice I love that you're able to see how much are you well you know it's important to remember that you know we see what Cothran but we can always switch that I also like in a fair way I'm a really bad mom you choose are when I go out to eat and sometimes I'll like get down to two things and the waitresses coming softly but Coleraine my maybe it'll land on heads and it'll mean the burger and by telling me that I'm straight once you have the burger all immediately no %HESITATION I really did want the burger I'll be like oh shit I don't want that I yeah this is what it is that you're looking I'm she now yes I love that I also want to say thanks to you both for spending two
