Lotus Tarot, Judgement Day





Coming To An End - Judgment Card

Hi Jennifer bagley. There are times in our lives when we must accept inevitable change and allow things to come to a natural end.

The Judgment card is often referred to as a time of resurrection and awakening, a time when a phase or period of our life comes to an absolute end making way for dynamic new beginnings.

It may be that a long-term relationship or marriage has had its time and whilst it may feel painful to accept this finality, the Judgment card is saying try and accept that this is a time of fast-moving, positive change and action for you.

Whether it's the end of a career, a time when your children have flown the nest, or a turn of events that make you wish your life was different, this card represents karmic change and it indicates that bigger and better things are yet to come into your life.

Quite often, fantastic events and opportunities follow sad and difficult challenges and this card can represent any events that may feel like 'Judgment Day' has come. Changes that may be indicated upon the appearance of this card can be significant, so this would not be a time for regret and fear but a time for courage and rejoicing in what you have achieved and what you are yet to achieve.

Your life may well pick up a pace when this card appears, so whatever future possibilities are indicated in your reading, these events may happen quite quickly.

If the Judgment card comes up in a reading about legal issues, it is a positive sign that any ruling will be in your favor. However, if this card is surrounded by negative cards, it may indicate legal battles ahead and the possibility of having a ruling made against you.

In general readings, if this card is surrounded by negative cards, it could be that the swift conclusions foretold by the positive aspect of this card may be delayed. This can mean that you are fearful of such significant change and may be ignoring opportunities that may well promise a brighter future.

I also feel that when this card comes up, it's important to use your own judgment wisely and not to judge yourself too harshly. It is a signal for you to open your heart and mind to accept that all things come to an end and nothing lasts forever, yet for each ending there is always a new beginning.

Embrace such significant and inevitable change and a whole new world of opportunity can unfold for you – the Judgment card is a calling for you to be all that you can be.

Respectfully,

Right Mastectomy



I will be adding a a YouTUbe video as soon as I upload it to my computer, having technical issues with transferring from SD Card to my computer.



I am 6 days post right mastectomy. I am still pretty sore and tired. I was feeling really good in the beginning. My body doesn't like the drain that is in my chest. I remember back in December when I had the Axillary Dissection, I had a drain for about 2 weeks. By the end of those 2 weeks, my body hurt, my joints hurt and I was very tired. I hate having the drain in my side. It hurts so much when I move.

But I have to look at the bright side of things.....I don't have to worry as much about having a second breast cancer return. Before I had an increased 25% chance of having a second breast cancer because of the Lobular Cancer. My decision was made. I don't really want to do this again in 5-10 yrs. Once in a lifetime was enough.

I am "cancer-free" (though there is a very small, tiny doubt where there may be some cells somewhere that are abnormal). But I'm not going to think about it. I am positive that the Chemotherapy and Radiation killed all cells. I had 3 of  10 Lymph nodes positive for carncinoma. It has all been removed from my body.

I have changed since having breast cancer. I am being PROACTIVE. I'm not gonna hide in my shell like some  breast cancer survivors do. They think that once it is over, it's over. IT'S NEVER OVER. Your life as you knew it has changed. PERIOD. I am going to help others that are going through it or gone through it. Whether you are a 1 month Survivor or 30 + year Survivor, I will invite you to the Support Group.

I will be starting up a Support Group at the Newport Cultural Center, Breast Cancer Survivors. Open House on April 21st. If you are a Survivor, or know someone that is a survivor, have them email me or contact the Cultural Center. my email is     jbagleyfnp@hotmail.com or send me a message via Facebook.

I will start a FB page for the Newport Breast Cancer Survivor Group. Open group.

I am working on a Volunteer app for the Caring Connections and the Y in Bangor so they will be backing up my group.

I want to thank everyone whom has helped during these last 10 Hard Months for my family.

Troy, I love you so much and can't wait to go to the movies next week with you. Just you and me like on our first date back in 1994. Remember dancing at Finnegan's? lol soo funny. I love you with all my heart.

Lotus Flower Tarot

Earth Magic Tarot  Cards.

My pick for today is:

Lotus Flower

Unfoldment

The lotus flower sits upon one of its leaves,having risen to the surface as the sun--held in the hand of God--invites it upward to the light. This unique plant is rooted in the mud and muck at the bottom of a body of water, its stem reaching up to the surface, where the leaves rest quietly. At nighttime the flower closes and sinks below the surface, only to rise with the daylight and once again gradually unfold its petals, its stem extending above the waterline three feet or more,

What we learn from this amazing plant is how our own spiritual path unfolds and opens to the light, then at times gently folds in on itself for a proper rest when the daylight fades. This period is just as necessary as the growth, for it allows the plant to integrate what it has gained in nourishment during the day. It's also just as important that it is rooted, and yet another miracle of Nature that something so exquisitely beautiful is formed from the mud and silt at the water's bottom.

Your spiritual unfoldment is occurring whether you are aware or not. The Stem is the grounding wire of your spirituality. Your soul is constantly reaching out for karmic destiny in the light, but even in that process there are periods of darkness and times to rest. It is a natural cycle, one that can not be truly coerced or halted. It has an intimate rhythm of its own, one that is unique to the being that is you. You do not need to strive or be driven by spiritual ambition, it does no good to try to force growth upon yourself or others, for that matter, allowing is the key here. Allow the place in you that naturally wants to follow the light to do so well recognizing that even when you have complete faith, you will face challenges and, occasionally, suffering. Your steady faith and love will guide you on your journey of returning to the light. 

Transformational Tarot Card

Hello Everyone,


I am writing this from my hospital bed. Yes, I had my right breast removed today. I am so happy. Painful but happy. A new Journey.


Ok, so all of you have been following my blogs and know that I am a Reiki Master now. I believe in a Supreme Being, Universal Life Force, and Healing Energy. Along with that I have dabbled in Tarot Cards. I am signed up for Lotus Tarot Card reading. A free tarot card reading weekly. Today, you won't believe the card that got dealt to me. I will attach a copy of the picture, what the meaning is, and what I believe the meaning to be.

"Rising From The Ashes


Hi Jennifer bagley. The Death Card has to be the one card in the Tarot deck that most,if not all, people fear seeing in a reading, and yet it isn't as dark and macabre as one might think, which is why some Tarot readers have renamed this card 'Transformation'.

How would you feel if I was to say 'Oh look, you are about to experience a transformation in your life'? Would you be as spooked as if you simply saw the Death card as your outcome card?

I am in the process of creating the Lotus Tarot deck and I will be naming this card 'Transformation' because I believe it portrays the true meaning of this card far better and without evoking the chills that the title 'Death' card does.


When the 'Death' card appears in a reading, the most common thought is that it is predicting a physical death, that someone is going to die. This, in most, if not all, cases is highly unlikely.


I cannot speak for all Tarot readers, but I personally do not use this card to represent a physical death. For me, the Death card represents an event or series of events or circumstances that may cause great disruption and possible upset, but which make transformation in its many forms inevitable.

I am not a medium or clairvoyant, but I do use the Tarot cards to help give men and women around the world some insights into their own situations and to look at their lives from a different perspective. Let me give you some examples: one of the greatest blows any of us can receive, man or woman, is when we fall utterly in love with someone only to be rejected and left alone. Many of you may have had such an experience and it can feel like your world has fallen apart.


Such incidences can create transformational change within us, changing our outlook and our approach to love and relationships. For example, if someone, who didn't love you, lets you go, it can open up a whole new set of circumstances and opportunities for you.


There have been numerous case histories of people who have been bankrupt and who have lost everything only to change course and tactics and go on to achieve great success


For me, the end of something, whether it be a relationship, job, career or lifestyle is only the sign that it is time for something new to be created. If I am no longer in that relationship, I am free to pursue new love. If I have lost my job, I am free to look for a better one and so on.



The tale of the Phoenix sums up the meaning of the Death card quite well, where a bird dies in the flames only to emerge and fly out of the fire transformed into something far greater.


So don't fear the Death card when it appears. Take it as a sign that something in your life may come to an end. The transition may be challenging but as the end comes to pass a new beginning will present itself."

Respectfully,

LT 



This is what I wrote to reply but couldn't send it to LT.

Tarot card transformation 

Don't be upset about that card. I am saying goodbye to a journey today that I am glad is over.  

I have been battling breast cancer stage 3 since June, today I said goodbye to that path. It is dead to me!!! 

I had my right breast removed prophalactically today and my porta cath removed because i have been done with chemo. I have endured 3 surgeries total (today being #3!), 8 rounds of chemo, 33 rounds of radiation. 

My new life has started. And will be going home tomorrow!  

I want to thank you for this "transformation" card. It is a time of saying goodbye to my old life and saying hello to my "rebirth".

Merry Christmas Everyone

I want to thank all of my followers and everyone who has followed my blog. I didn't realize how many friends I had until I got sick. I wish it didn't have to happen that way but it did. There is a reason why things happen. I have had a tough journey but I am past the hardest part. I only have Radiation left.

I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. I am very thankful for all the outpouring of love during this time.

I want to thank Debbie and Danielle White (and their hubbies), everyone that donated to the Benefit Supper on Dec 3rd.

Debbie and Danielle, thank you, for everything that you two have done for us. I can express enough for everything. If there is anything that I can do for you at any time, I am here. ANYTHING.

REIKI

I will be taking my Level 3 Reiki Master Class on Saturday. I will be stepping up to the next level of my Energy Attunements. I will also be seeing family from a previous life. Sisters. A feeling that you get, de je vu. Probably spelled wrong.

Jeanne, Charlotte and Joan will be performing the Master Class. I will be traveling to Norway for this. I can't wait. This is an important day. I wish Karen B. was here to finish my Reiki Journey to Master level. She attuned me to Level 1 and 2. She helped me kill my cancer, and speed recovery. Because of Medititation and Reiki Energy, I got through chemotherapy with fatigue only as a major side effect.

My Reiki Guides, my Archangels, My Ascending Masters, and my Guardian Angel Meredith (Thompson) got me through and have healed me. I am CancerFree!

I will be going in for an elective Right Breast Mastectomy on March 23rd. This is my choice since the tumors in my left breast were so aggressive. They say that by the time you feel the lump, it is too late. If you remember, my breast cancer was Stage 3 with 10 tumors spanning 11 cm. (your cervix has to dilate to 10cm to pass a baby's head through!). I had not felt well for about one year before my diagnosis. This is why I am having my right breast removed. ALONG with my Port a Cath!! YAY.

Bright Crystal Blessings,

Jennifer, Crystal Cohort of HMoon.

To My St Joes ED Family

I had to have an MRI today, to get ready for my right mastectomy on March 23rd. Dr O'Connor required this because I had not had an MRI on them before.

I had the pleasure to visit the place I called a second home for more than 7 years. I had lunch with my awesome friend Tonya. Thanks for lunch, by the way. ;). It was also great to see all of you. Gina, Helen, Shandi, Julie, Dr. Buckley, Kevin (whom I saw in the cafeteria), sorry if I missed any names. I have been a little forgetful with names since having chemotherapy!

It was sooooo great to see you all. I miss all of you. Muuaahh. Lol.

I am taking crystal classes right now to become a "Crystal Cohort" or crystal healer. I have my Reiki Level 2 and hpe to get my level 3 in the next month or so. Energy Healing and crystals are my calling. If I can help just one person that has been diagnosed with cancer, it is worth it. All the loving support unconditionally is important.
