Sometimes I have to wait for the right information to come my way to have a dream make sense…
The Justice card of the Robin Wood Tarot was prominently featured in a dream I had this morning.
This morning, I had a dream that began with appearance of the Justice card, specifically the image from the Robin Wood Tarot. A mantra that I could hear being repeated with the appearance of the card was “stand up for your convictions.” Then, a woman, one that I worked with many years ago, asked me to do a reading for her and to put it on her “tab.” After the reading, I looked at a sheet of paper that was a record of her tab. The new total of her tab, with this reading included, was $46.
I woke up from the dream, and recorded it in my journal.
The Justice card didn’t show up in my daily draw, as has been the case many times when I would have a dream that featured cards (playing cards, Tarot and Lenormand) so vividly.
I figured I’d go about my day, with the hopes something would happen to make the dream “click” for me…
History in the making: The dream of marriage equality for same-sex couples comes true when the Supreme Court rules in making it legal throughout the United States.
Well, I just received an e-mail about the news of marriage equality: Today, same-sex marriage is now legal throughout the entire United States, in a historic Supreme Court ruling.
And then I read further: “Equality for LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered) Americans has come so far in just half a century. It was 46 years ago, almost to the day, the gay rights movement began with the riots at the Stonewall Inn, when its patrons fought back during a police raid on the bar.”
A line about the Stonewall Inn–and its place in the history of the gay rights movement–in an e-mail message helps me understand my “Justice” dream.
The dream suddenly made sense when I read that line. Justice. The “tab” (especially since I don’t drink, but my only association with a tab is in a bar). The number 46.
Since I don’t read the papers or watch the news, the Universe has to get creative when It wants me to be in the know…
Today, for many in the LGBT community, a dream comes true—the dream of marriage equality.
For me, it’s a dream of Justice—and getting to witness such history-in-the-making progress being made in my lifetime…
Wow! You have some great dreams, James – how simple but powerful this one was. I love all the symbols in it. I find that dreams often bring up time issues as money. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Kristen! I knew there was something to this dream just by the way the Justice card was presented, along with the number 46. Also, the woman–the one I worked with–that was so long ago, and I haven’t seen or heard from her in ages, and hadn’t thought of her or talked of her recently–I knew that was another piece, as she was part of my “history.”
I think every dreamer has to learn his or her dreaming “style,” which is like what you and I do every time we work with the cards. We take the time to “learn the language,” if you will.
And speaking of time, I like that you have discovered the “time is money” (OMG!–I love that–boy, does that resonate!) connection. I see time and money as being the same: both are valuable commodities, that we both invest and spend.
Thanks for taking the time (couldn’t resist!) to read the post and share your thoughts–I appreciate it!
