As with any system of divination, much of the usefulness of such
a system rests with the abilities and earnest desire of the individual
reader. Any presentation offered regarding esoteric knowledge
will be colored by the personality of the author who brings forth
the work. If there is an earnest desire on the part of the
author to offer such a work as an act of service to the whole of
humanity, my feeling is that the author will be granted access to
the source of knowledge being presented. My desire in offering
this work is that it be as a catalyst to the seeker within.
By aligning with the ideal of 'Seeking the Highest' (or seeking
God), this work may provide a platform from which to understand
the dynamics of such a journey more fully. May you be blessed
in this endeavor.
It is important to remember, the presentation is not the knowledge.
There is no one-to-one correspondence between the symbology that
represents any esoteric science and the presentation regarding the
expression of that science. As an example, Einstein presented
the theory E = mc2. It is a formula that advanced
mathematicians can prove using available mathematical theories.
However, any scientist who offers such a solution will have a presentation
that is slightly different than their associates, and sometimes
quite different. The point of all of this is that, essentially,
the formula remains as is whereas the solving of the formula (presentation)
can differ. Furthermore, it is well known that the formula
itself is far more accurate than any expression describing it.
Any Card Interpreter should be willing to evolve their own presentation.
From my revelations regarding the ancient use of this card
science, it was an art form practiced by the priests and priestesses
(or those seeking communion with God) during the Atlantean empire.
The path of discovery was driven by the desire to know God, or Creator.
As part of that path, they presented their findings along the way
as an offering to humanity, thereby receiving the feedback From
God through the person (or people) present.
Towards the end-times where Atlantis was about to crash, this practice
had become more of a science than an art form, where much of the
presentation crystallized to such a point that it became distasteful
to many adept practitioners. In alignment with this, some
of those practitioners went on to take up service as scientists
of the time.
It was the unholy evolution of that science which set the stage
for the destruction of Atlantis. Many who still practiced
the use of the cards did not quickly enough discover what was to
come because they had become equally adamant about their form of
presentation. A rare few circumvented this tragedy by migrating
to high places prior to the collapse.
Following Atlantis, the gypsies maintained a practical use of the
cards as a form of divination (presentation to the people) but long
was lost the original
desire which was so important to the priestess and priest of
old. Luckily, there has always been--and always will remain--a
permanent connection between these cards and the Creator of this
pack of cards. I believe that, driven by that same initial
desire present with the seekers of Atlantis, we can again partake
in that amazing source of knowledge.
The stage is set for history to repeat itself again, but my hope
is that this time any catastrophe will be circumvented due to the
presentations provided by earnest seekers of this ancient, magical
art. The ultimate blessing provided by practicing the language
of these cards has always been to gain a deeper understanding of
the natural connections that we have with each other as humans.
And in the revelation of seeing ourselves, through each other, we
recognize The Creator behind the form.
Personal reflections and suggestions regarding this work.
The content presented here is largely symbolic. I recommend
that you digest it with an open mind and open heart. It is
important to read through this section with the intention of receiving
the inner guidance that is necessary to do any form of real divination.
A great amount of work has been done by countless authors--both
ancient and present day--regarding the chakras. Note that
there are many inconsistencies in the various references.
I have been working with the chakras for over 20 years and it
has not been until recently that I have been able to put into words
this content. I credit much of the underlying structure presented
here to the works I discovered at kheper.net.
On top of that I have woven the fabric of my own meditations and
insights into a language I use to describe the inner and outer workings
of the chakras. Not only has kheper.net provided a solid presentation
on the chakras, but many other ancient and esoteric teachings as
well. You may note that there are differences in how astrological
influences are presented between this resource and kheper.net, but
it's important to remember that this sort of inconsistency is common
throughout the various resources.
As a rule of thumb, if a topic area is confusing or hard to understand,
you might be well served to just skim through it and come back to
it later. This is especially important when you consider the
amount of content presented here to support the extension of the
original text, 'The Mystic Test Book'. Olney Richmond was
an astrologer, astronomer and mathematician. Some of what
he presented was out of my grasp initially, but quite a bit took
hold. The more I have studied and meditated on this subject,
the more has become available to me.
May you be Blessed with divine guidance as you read through this
section. And as you take this into your task as planetary
healers, may the life, love and wisdom reveal through your voice
your Soul purpose. |
