It has been a long time since I last took them out for serious reading. Couldn't sleep so got up and brought the cards out. Glad that it has made my night calmer and my view clearer. When no one else is in the right position to help, they are always there to aid me. *__* And thanks to lijuan who lent me her room cuz my roomie was already asleep and I couldn't read them in the dark. Thanks.

THE TAROT'S DEATH CARD, key #13 of the Major Arcana, does not mean physical death. Rather, the Death card portrays symbolic death-a change or transformation. Often, it heralds the end of a familiar or more comfortable mode. It conveys a release which is necessary for growth and expansion. Perhaps it even brings a whole new set of principles which will guide you spiritually, emotionally, psychologically or financially. Joseph Campbell, author of A Hero with A Thousand Faces, describes times of personal change as periods when "The familiar life horizon has been outgrown; the old concepts, ideals, and emotional patterns no longer fit; the time for the passing of a threshold is at hand." The sunrise depicted in the background of the Death card holds the promise of the transformation which is about to take place: the death of the old self, but also the dawning of a new day. The Death card is a cue that you are at a "threshold"-a crossing into a new phase, unbounded by the past.
If you are casting the cards in a Tarot reading for another person, as a sensitive reader, you should always address this card immediately when it appears in a reading, and then go back to the rest of the reading. The "Seeker" (who is receiving the reading) should be reassured that the "death" being depicted here is symbolic and transformational, not literal. You might even encourage the individual to discuss his or her reactions to the card, relating it to events that may be occurring in his or her life. The white rose which the Death figures holds is the symbol of rebirth. It also portrays the mystery which surrounds death and transformation. Since there is no Tarot card that specifically portrays birth, we may wonder: Is the Death card really the birth card? The cycles of life, especially birth and death are mysterious and paradoxical. Such mystery is embedded in the Tarot's system. It is meant to challenge you and allow you to explore the meaning of life on a deeper level and from a broader perspective.
When this card appears in your reading, it may be an invitation to embrace change and transformation, especially as it refers to your consciousness or past lifestyle. As such, it represents the quintessential example of "letting go." It's appearance may encourage you as you are clearing out the old and making way for the new. You can even meditate on the Death card in a creative visualization process, allowing its potent imagery to infuse your unconscious with its implied invitation to trust the process of transformation and release. The Death card can assist you in dissolving any negative forces which, knowingly or unknowingly, have taken root in your unconscious mind.
At other times, the Death card may appear in your reading when there are changes which you know you need to make but which you are resisting. The potent Death imagery may serve to remind you that the more you hate something and the more you run from it, the more you are bound to it. You are caught by that which you seek to avoid. Resistance leads to persistence and sometimes that resistance to a problem or situation may actually help to maintain it. The Death card may help you to release resistance. As the symbolism makes contact with your deep mind, it retrieves the more elevated doctrine that shows the meaning of death in a broader context. You can never know what miracles, what healing, what insight or growth might come to you through the difficult times of your life and as you face life's challenges. It is likely that the Spirit flowing through your periods of change or difficulty will bring an expanded life, a greater self or a greater good. The symbolic death that follows may allow you to move forward. For example, perhaps you are holding onto friendships that are no longer supportive or nurturing. Perhaps your career or job is no longer satisfying. The Death card's appearance in your reading may be inviting you to deliberately address the issues at hand regarding these changes. Perhaps Death asks, "Is it time to let go and move on? Can you trust that some greater good will come to you as you surrender to the change?"
It can be one of life's greatest challenges to know when it is time to let go and allow "death" to claim whatever is being embraced. Meditation on the Death card may allow you to discern if, and when, it is time to let go, to mourn and grieve if necessary, and prepares you to be open to whatever is next. The Death card may guide you through a loss or sorrow so that you will not dwell on it excessively.
If you are in the midst of a difficult life challenge, the Death card may also represent the process of spiritual purification in which you gain a deeper understanding of the love of a higher force. That is, often during times of adversity, you may be called to turn to a higher force to guide and sustain you. The Death card challenges you to expand your spiritual beliefs, allowing more of Spirit to touch and heal you. It also holds great hope-the hope that you can start over, embark on a new journey. As we are purged of the old, we are lighter, more receptive-we are freed of the past, ready to start on a new course.
The darkness of winter is upon us; we have pause to contemplate death's message. As we hunker down into the chill, Nature reminds us that death is part of the cycle of life. All the signs of winter, the bare trees, the raw cold, the barren terrain may keep our spirits at bay. But we can keep Death's emblem of transformation in our hearts, allowing it to remind us that there is a sunrise in the horizon and it holds the promise of a new dawn.

我以为《一公升的眼泪》只是感人罢了,就叙述了一个患有小脑脊椎变性症的女生勇敢面对自己的病症,一路走到最后的故事,也没什么真正和我有关联的地方,应该不会有太多感触。今天看了第五集,在思敏的电脑前不停地哽咽,一下子就哭了。唉,尤其是看到那个女生的日记,写着她心里的内疚和不甘连累身边的亲友的心情,心酸哪!
还记得那时才中三,象个白痴似的满脸带着羞愧到陈笃生医院去复诊。每次去的时候,心里都很沉重,很害怕会在医院遇到任何认识的人。复诊的部门不在主要的大厦以内,而是在旁的其中一个小屋里。每次坐在小屋里等待复诊的时候总会看到装上假肢的病人,一步步辛苦地前进着。有的可以自己行走,有的连别人帮助也没办法,只好坐在轮椅上。
小屋里总是异常的安静,坐在轮椅上的完全不说话,其他的干脆到外头去抽烟解闷去了。而我总是满脸羞愧的坐在那里,一动也不动。医生为我做了模型,要我每天上学都穿着它,就连上体育课,也只能把它摘下一下,过后就得重新把它穿上。医生说情况已算不错,有些人还得开刀动手术呢。在班上坐在我后边的男同学不久也发现到了,就问我到底为什么会拿个大包包来回厕所换衣服。很丢人很丢人。可是还要装着一副乐观表情向他解释。
妈咪为了让我方便一些,就买了一个超大的蓝色NIKE运动袋让我在学校把模型装进去。在买包包的时候,我仍是红着脸。妈咪为了要确定包包的尺寸够大,竟然在众人面前把模型拿出来量了量。很讨厌别人的那种眼光,可是我却逃不了。
全家人也无端端也被我连累了。家里的人开始指责对方,说是谁谁谁的错,基因是谁谁谁的。听了心里很难受。
那年的大年初一亲戚唯一讨论的八卦问题就是我身上那个硬邦邦的肉色模型。很丢人。我很生气爸爸妈咪把事情告诉了他们,于是摆了一副臭脸,却被小姑姑骂,说什么不应该这样子对父母。大家对爸爸妈咪的眼光好像也不一样了。那年初一我们很早就离开了阿妈的家。那天晚上做了恶梦,梦见亲戚们排着队,要在我身上敲敲几下,笑话我,小姑姑就排在第一位!我起来的时候哭得好厉害。这应该是人家说的那种无法忘记的梦吧。
照了无数次的X光,复了无数次的诊,丢了很多很多钱,换来的只是如此。
我叛逆,不再在身上穿着累赘,也不去复诊了。因为背后偶尔的痛不比心中的痛来的深。
如今仍是如此。

掉落深井,我大聲呼喊,等待救援……
天黑了,黯然低頭,才發現水面滿是閃爍的星光。
我總在最深的絕望裡,遇見最美麗的驚喜。

就一句话:我们都在成长,不要在这个时候让我们的无知伤害彼此。
能成为朋友的人很多,能永远保持朋友关系的很少。小小误会总是难免的,尤其是在这个成长阶段,更是如此。
坐在篱笆上看着一切,有好多话想说,可是想了想,还是让他们顺其自然自己去搞定吧!
呵呵!青春哪!

被逼着放弃理想,被逼着离开家里,被逼着跟不喜欢我和我不喜欢的人接触。
被逼着背负着一些完全不属于我的责任,也被逼着背负着完全属于我的责任。

These are 2 excerpts that I got from the book "A Piece of Mirror and Other Essays" by Sensei Daisaku Ikeda, the President of Soka Gakkai International. Labels: 我的成长教室
"Whether it be your boyfriend, husband or friends... why are they attracted to you? I am sure it is not because of your looks but because of who you are. What they find in you, the beauty of your mind and your personality. No matter how pretty a woman is, if her attention is only in her physical looks, I do not think the appeal will last, but rather fade away with time. True, lasting attraction to another human being comes from an inner beauty and a confidence that shine from within.
For me a woman's true beauty lies not in her appearance, but deep within her heart. A woman who makes all-out efforts and who exerts herself wholeheartedly in her field is beautiful; she really shines. She looks sharp and focused and full of confidence. This kind of radiance will always outshine for me any external beauty related to what a woman is wearing. In fact those who are aware of their inner beauty do need need to seek borrowed beauty from outside. And. sadly, those who care only for their physical appearance are often spiritually impoverished and trying to conceal that lack with exterior trappings."
"The most important thing is not to give up on yourself when you are young, giving in to negativity or cynicism. Do not compare yourself with others. Be true to who you are and try to cherish and feel content with your irreplaceable life. Even if you are sometimes laughed at, or people let you down, keep going forward and never let yourself be defeated.
It all comes down to you. I hope you will not rely on others or wait for them to do something. Try to develop such a strong sense of responsibility that you can stand up to the fiercest storms, confidently proclaiming," I'll do it! Just watch me!" Please confront reality, look it squarely in the face, and with guts, wisdom and strength, challenge everything that lies ahead of you."
I can't agree more with Sensei's words! We should really treasure ourselves even before others were to take the effort to treasure us and make us their friends! ^_^ Be more confident and SHINE!
我在某天读到了某某有名编辑主任的部落格。标题很简单,六个字。整篇的文字就短短七行而已。 Labels: My Voice 我の声音, 我的成长教室
信心,靠别人给。
哇。好强的六个字哦。才几个字嘛,竟然能让我心虚起来。
…… ……
唉。

我们常常害怕失去,但是更抗拒拥有。 Labels: 我的成长教室
人有个坏习惯。就是总爱往最高处攀去,一路到了顶峰才发现高处不胜寒的感觉难受。
这就是我们害怕拥有得太多的原因啦。
刚刚一边冲凉,一边想了很多事。 墙角青苔总是绿得太快 回忆慢慢慢慢爬起来 煮一杯热咖啡喝一些固执的以为 我们一直到最后才学会哭泣时候谁安慰 而成长让人觉得累却已没有办法后退 Labels: 我的成长教室
腿上那堆红红痒痒的小红点已经慢慢消肿了。我想应该是因为这一整天我都没特意去注意它们吧,所以它们才会有机会专心康复。(我越看就会越想去搔它们嘛。)若是真让我成天这么‘盯着’(=搔着),小红点必定会痒得更厉害!
成长过程中的问题也和这个道理一样~
有些问题越搔就越痒,痒到不能停止搔痒,结果皮破血流,又多了道疤痕。问题却依然存在。
我宁愿不去理它,让一切顺其自然,以不变应万变!嘿嘿嘿。
这就是 WISE TG 的 wisdom~ ^_^
终于承认了不是每一个陌生人都能成为朋友。 Labels: 我的成长教室
即使是把他们丢在一块儿,让他们“同甘共苦”个四五天,一起上高山,下油锅也不一定能让他们投契。
唉,什么博爱精神啊?真是可笑!(-_-)''
唉。就让这五天快快过去吧!本小姐没那么大方,急性子对大家一起相处也不好,早知道就乖乖呆在房里为新学期准备准备,不去管什么复杂的人际关系了。
大人的世界真麻烦!T_T
你有没有试过在情绪混乱的时候上了公车,然后因为心不在焉而下错站? Labels: 我的成长教室
很庆幸的,这回我因为下错车站而看到了不同的风景。
我在Clarke Quay的那段路独自走着,看着路灯亮起,看着人潮慢慢出现。在一片车声喧闹的马路旁,我的心里反而突然觉得很平静。
没有旁人给予我压力,要我在限定的时间内到某个地方去,也没有路人会理会我这个与他们檫肩而过的陌生人。我身上的包袱瞬间消失在眼前的新加坡河内。
真想那样站在那里永远不离开。好不想回到这个复杂的世界里继续演着这一出戏。
这几天总忙着把东西搬进大学宿舍里,身体又是累,心里又是闷。真不想搬,但每天来回四个小时的漫长路程我可没法承受。这么高的车费对穷学生来说自然也成了个问题。只好搬咯。
人忙起来脾气自然也会差些,容易失去耐性与友人起争执。摆了个臭脸谁也不好受,所以只好搭车匆匆离开现场,希望可以让情绪平静下来。
哪知道就这样下错车站,很意外地在这么漂亮的地方找到属于自己的时刻。我把心里的小小感动存放在这段成长的记忆中,希望过后的一切会更好。
我最近好像变得忧郁了。呵呵~
我们都在长大,从一起啃书的日子一直到各自为自己的事情忙碌,对方在心里的位置有没有改变?
当兵的努力当兵,念理工学院的正为着准备毕业作品而拼搏,考上大学的则像无头苍蝇在仅剩的青春中乱闯。
这么不同的命运,它们的主人们却有着共同的回忆。
多害怕它会褪色哪!可能我的位置早已被割舍了也说不定。请原谅我对你们的不信任,我只是……
有些累了。
有空就顺手扶我一把吧。感激不尽。
当时间走得太快的时候,我会害怕。 Labels: 我的成长教室
我会不会随着时间变得太快,再也不是你们认识的我?
…… ……
今天晚餐后的甜品让我深思了片刻。原本疲倦得很的四张黑脸,在爱玲捧着的雪糕前终于露出了微笑。她看着我手机里咱们当年的毕业照片,竟冒出了一句:“我想哭。”
其实,我也有同样的感受。那一刻我确定了在这三年内咱们的友情并没有变质。
尽管外面风大雨大,让我在不知不觉中失去了从前的天真,变得沮丧悲观,你们所赐的珍贵友情已为我披上了足以让我继续向前拼搏的勇气。
感激不尽。
七个月的日子就这么熬过去了。 Labels: 我的成长教室
期待--知足--不满--气愤--不满--知足--期待
原来这一切都只是一个循环。
虽然回到了原点,但在这段旅程的最后,我得到了我不曾拥有的:武装。
这个世界的黑暗刺眼得要命, 我就戴上墨镜,学习视而不见的高超艺术。
他们总是笑里藏刀,我就戴上面具,和他们较量。
这是我在过去的180天所学到的。
2007年的头七个月,失望太多,惊喜太多,第一次也太多了。
虽然有些透不过气,但还是以感恩的心接受了一切。
第一次做了长达7个月的工作,第一次尝到了当女朋友的滋味
(然后又后悔,第一次提出分手)。
第一次从高中毕业, 第一次报读大学, 第一次决定住进宿舍。
第一次用自己的血汗钱买电脑,还有还有……
第一次独自站在刚回到的原点,把它当作另一个起点。
前面的路途遥远,只看到一片模糊。下一刻又将飞向哪里?
有些茫然,又有些期待,好矛盾。
顺其自然吧。希望在这次的新旅程的最后,背包里满是收获。
这就是成长吧?
