Seeker, you might enjoy learning how to read the Tarot -- there are three great volumes under the title "78 Degrees of Wisdom" by Rachel Pollack that I started with.
Manipulating the symbols of the cards is a very wonderful way to hone your skill in focus, flow, and love. It's not about predicting the future; it's about opening yourself up to your intuitive impressions, based on the energy that flows through the archetypal pictures. There are all kinds of different decks and each reader feels drawn to a deck for a particular reason -- my favorite is the old standby, the Rider-Waite, probably because it's featured in the 78 Degrees series.
Whether you read for others or only for yourself, you might find it to be a lovely way to be quiet and tune in. You can actually start using your intuition right away, rather than reading a book first. |
