Amulet Readings by NanLT

This week, I began a new stage in my life. I have been doing Reiki healing for a long number of years and over time have self-taught myself in intuitive Reiki. Now, I have been given the opportunity to take this knowledge to a higher level, and at the same time learn Shamanic healing methods. I have held an interest in Shamanism for as long as I have been a Pagan.

Our first class was last night – and I received a message which was verified soon after when another course participant did a journey to discover what I needed. I spent today contemplating that message and wondering where things will lead after I have finished this course – absolutely I intend to finish it.

Contemplations lead to ideas. Ideas which I am letting percolate and choosing not to share at this time.Ideas which will come to fruition in the next 5 years.

However, I did a reading to ask the amulets if I am on the right track in my thinking.

This particular reading shows how sometimes the meaning within the reading is not always the meaning within the pages. Not fully in any case.

My Question: Is ________ the Path I am to be on?

The response from the amulets:

Frog – Speaking out

Nightstar – Fulfillment

Comb – Sef-reliance

Inanna – Self-transformation

Eyes – Inner visions

The first amulet drawn  is telling to to find my voice and speak out. More than that though, this is the frog symbol of Heket. Egyptian Goddess. As midwife of the Gods, she was called upon to aid women in labour – her priestesses may have been midwives, and she was called upon at the time of death to aid in the rebirth of the dead into new lives.  In this regard, it refers directly to the question I have asked.

Next comes the Nightstar – here to tell me I am looking the right direction. Powers are at my control and my dreams here will come true.

Then the Comb – telling me that I am the ultimate controlled of my destiny. I alone am the one to decide if this is what I am to do.

Inanna, Goddess Queen who made the descent to the Underworld. Here again, Her message is very – if I am to pursue this vocation (for a vocation it must be), then I must first make the Descent into the Underworld to retrieve that which is lost just as Inanna did.

Finally, the Eyes – Inner Visions. Not much hidden meaning and symbolism here either. Inner visions are shamanic journeys. And the changes which will come in how I perceive everything around me as I continue on this path.

Am I on the right path? Yes – but it is also my choice on whether to take this path. Or another.

I have been doing work recently learning about the Shaman Path and sought words of wisdom from the Amulets. This is what they had to tell me.

Where do I look to learn to live a more Shamanic life?

To walk the path of Ecstasy (Dancing Bird Goddess)

you must – Listen (Sow) to hear what is not being said

you must – See (Owl) through the darkness to what can’t be seen

you must – Look through your Inner Visions (Eyes)

and Trust (Whirlwinds) what cannot be seen

Whirlwinds - Trust the Invisible

Can you guide me to my Spirit Helper/Guardian?

Dolphin – playing, laughter, fun

Inanna – Journey to the Underworld

Spider – Discover my own creativity, look inside myself

Sprouting Seed – the process has been started, new beginnings

Laussel Goddess – Moon time, cycles, let the Spirit Guides come to you in their own time.

Inanna - Journey to the Underworld

Who will guide me as I journey to meet my Spirit Guides over time?

Night Star – Fulfillment

Universal energies are at my command.

I have asked the Amulets – Where should my Mystical focus be now. I have been looking at different areas and actually am feeling just a bit pulled in different directions.

There’s my focus on the Amulets. My focus on Paganism and witchcraft. My focus on Reiki and energy healing.Where does it need to be?

These are the 5 Amulets which were drawn for this question.

Nile River Goddess

She is telling me to look at what I have accomplished thus far and to celebrate my successes there.

I have created blogs on 2 of these focus areas. Each is slowly pulling in a following.

Willendorf Goddess

This ancient Mother Goddess tells me that my focus is needed in each other these areas. I have things to share and much to teach people. She also reminds me of the interconnectedness of each of these areas.

Temple

I am on the verge of making a big step in my life. I am standing at the threshold. I need to find the balance between each part of who I am and pull them together again. I am the part of something much bigger than myself alone.

Inanna

Ask the questions that need to be asked. What would happen if…? Why? I am questions the path I am on. Let each question generate new questions and follow them where they might lead.

Gorgon

The sense I am getting here is not that of anger put passion. Let my passion for these subjects shine through.

So – where should my focus lie? Where it is now. It is right and good that I am focusing on these areas individually, but I also need to work on pulling them together and integrating them as each is connected to the others. Instil my own passion for these topics into my writing, and ask the questions that need to be asked to guide me to where I need to be.

Self-Transformation

Inanna is a Goddess who was worshipped first in ancient Sumeria.

Self-Transformation

The story, “The Descent of Inanna” consists of more than 400 lines and was inscribed on clay tablets in cuneiform writing approximately 4,000 years ago. It’s possible this same story could have been repeated for over 1,500 years before that in oral teaching traditions.

Inanna was called Her Awesome Queen of Heaven and Earth by those who worshipped her.

She was the Goddess of plants, animals, and fecundity of all living things.She was also a Goddess of War.

Meaning

This amulet signals that a time of self- transformation is coming.  The time is coming to face core inner issues. This can be done through asking questions, and listening for the answers.

Like Inanna hearing something from the Great Below.

From the Great Above Inanna opened her ear to the Great Below.

In other words, she heard and she listened.

Let your questions guide you. The answers to each question will lead to new questions. Follow them to where they might lead.
