When I received the answer for the first day’s card, without yet knowing the card for the second day, whenever I caught myself arguing, persuading, proving something, and reacting to internal and external stimuli, I immediately focused on Myself, on the sensation of ZiS, in the presence of my body in space. At that moment, it occurred to me that when I focus on Myself, the inner dialogue falls silent, I feel a surge of energy, and bliss envelops me. The card for the second day confirmed that I should rely on Myself, my Essence, and the Wisdom within me.
Day No. 3
Card 13 — Death came up.
Thank you, Teacher, for the reading .
The completion of a stage—very symbolic for me.
Summary of the reading:
“What takes away my energy?” — the 5 of Swords came up: inner struggle and memories of the past.
“What fills me with energy?” — the 9 of Wands: I have experience, but I lack self-confidence.
“How can I strengthen my energy?” — Major Arcana 13, Death: the completion of a previous stage and the beginning of a new one, i.e. transformation.
Namaste, everyone!
Day 3. The Queen of Swords Arcana suggests that the path to awakening my inner Strength may lie in gaining clarity of mind, wisdom, and the ability to distinguish what truly matters among the multitude of thoughts and circumstances. I will definitely follow the Arcana’s guidance in defining several key priorities and letting go of unnecessary information noise!
The entire three-day spread looks very interesting and logical:
1. What energy is spent on — the Tower Arcana already suggests that profound renewal is necessary, since a significant part of my energy is spent maintaining the familiar order of things and preserving old ideas and life structures!
2. Source of energy — the 10 of Wands Arcana says that my resource lies in the ability to bring what matters into reality!
3. Symbolic guidance on how to reveal and direct this Strength toward constructive change — the Queen of Swords Arcana offers precisely to set priorities correctly, highlighting what is important!
Super! I am very happy that I was able to take part in such a wonderful Intensive!
Om Shanti, thank you for providing the opportunity to participate in the Intensive, for the RA spread and the informative interpretations! Thank you to the Intensive team and all the assistants and participants!
Reflections, day 3. Arcana 2, the King of Wands, and Arcana 3, the Queen of Wands. The energy of fire that arrived in its masculine and feminine aspects is very interesting. It is especially interesting that I wrote Arcana 3 almost accidentally, by mistake. So, choosing a global goal that will lead the way, with a sequence of events unfolding behind it. The Queen of Wands is creative energy that paves the way through its embodiment (creativity). It is the big, complete picture in which the current goal makes up only one aspect of its manifestation. The realization: energy is given to accomplish a task, not for fear. Creativity has been breaking through me for several months in the form of writing and playing the piano, which brings pleasure and completely sincere joy. Intuitively, in moments when the feeling becomes overwhelming, I play, and it gets easier. Connecting the three Arcana, fear takes away strength—fear of the future, fear of “what if it doesn’t work out,” and an attempt to control what cannot be controlled. Where is the strength? In the Strength Arcana, in feminine gentleness, relying on inner experience of overcoming difficulties, and trusting in Strength; giving up pressure, choosing a positive scenario, and once again, not rigid control but gentleness. Where is the resource? In creativity, in expressing what gives birth to joy and brings pleasure in the process. In staying in my own state and allowing myself to express who I am. The global goal requires a little more awareness. Wands are an earthly category, but for me, the global goal shouldTo unite both the spiritual and material planes. Perhaps the key to understanding is that the goal must ignite something within you. Everything comes together into a single picture; the direction has been set. Thank you for the reading and interpretation of the arcana—it was very instructive, and the intensive helped me better understand my feelings and the situation.
Day 3. Card 1: Queen of Pentacles. It confirmed that my life is developing in the right direction. I am strengthening my connection with the earth, creating beauty around me, listening to my body, enjoying life, wishing wisdom and awareness to all people, and blessing them. Thank you, Om Shanti, and all the intensive participants!
Day 3 – card 5.
In the second day’s reading, the selected card 7 highlighted and reminded me of where my strength lies and what fills me up—everything was spot-on. And the signaling card 8 nearby was “asking to be held.” It’s amazing that it, too, matched what is. Thank you! I’ll try not to forget this.
