Document Future by Caroline The Curly

November 11th, 2007 11:26 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Document an instance of the Future.

Document the future: well, what better way that divination?

anyways, here's picking the card, I'll report back tonight to tell you how this was the future.

later: well, I suppose I really should have interpretted this earlier, since now... it will seem all weird. maybe I'll redo this tomarrow....I don't know. anywho, I suppose that I will interprete how the princess of swords was today: I'm not so sure this is great though... backwards fortune telling? I'll definatly do this again properly tomarrow. actually, lemme do tomarrows properly right now. then report tomarrow.

So I spread out the cards again, and asked what tommarrow has in store. I closed my eyes, and sensed which of the cards had that "golden" energy to it in.... what I suppose is like what fantasy authors call second sight or mage sight or such.... its seeing on the energetic plane, not the physical plane. anyways, there was one strongly so, and one slightly so. I pulled out the strong one, the seven of pentacles. then the second one became stronger, and it was the princess of pentacles. I guess tomarrow will be very grounded and material lol. be back after some meditation on their meanings, and uploading pics. I had a hard time getting the lighting decent for taking a closer pic of the two cards. sorry.

heres my interpretation of the cards, and tomarrow, I'll post a bit about what happened, and compare, and see if I really did document the future:

The seven of pentacles is, of course, an earth card, so it represents matters of earth, or materialism, or the earthly, physical realm in some way. To me, this card, however, is very earthy today, not materialistic or anything, but earthy in sort of… gardening, soil, earthy. There is something biblical today, about the woman, she reminds me of Rachael, or at least, my mental picture of her, so maybe it has something to do with Jewish History class, something large to happen in it, or of significance…? Also, I think the fact that she was reversed, is not saying that I will be grounded, but that I should be. I’m very much seeing the reversal as a warning. I should be grounded, instead of passionate, emotional, or flighty, which implies that there will be some need for me to be steady tomorrow. Overall, though, it’s a fairly calm card, so not something super dramatic.

Now for the princess of pentacles. This card is very contemplative, though as an earth card, its not… sort of… higher contemplation. While the other card seemed to have some more spiritual elements to it, today, this card seems to me to be grounded mostly very physically and materialistically. Because it is reversed, its maybe a warning against being too materialistic, which implies that I will be very tempted to be overly so. For some reason, I’m really seeing the pentacle she’s holding and contemplating as my car, though I’m not sure what that means. Maybe I’ll have some big discussion with my mom about my proposal to get part of the value of it as a gift from her and dad, and pay her the rest to buy it from them when I go to college…. Also, all of the royalty of the minor Arcana are always alone, but she seems more alone than some, but not really lonely, so I guess tomorrow may be one of those days when I won’t really be bothered by not having many friends. Since she doesn’t seem to mind because of her contemplation, maybe it will be because I’ll be too busy with other things that I won’t mind…


monday: lets see... well, not that much super incidental happened in jewish history, I mean, lots of very interesting thinking things, (we're reading the periodic table by primo levi, good book, anyways, we were discussing the chapter on... vandium I think it is, and sort of levi's reaction to muller, heavy stuff, heavy stuff, very interesting too.) but not like... life changing... I don't think... though perhaps I will do some life changing thinking on what we discussed, I'm not certain...... and materialism certainly has been a big theme today in my thoughts. I need to be less buying oriented, even though I don't normally go shopping much. anyways, I was thinking lots about going to chadwicks of london later today and buying that lacy garter belt and stockings for when my amazing bf comes out here, pair with a awesome pair of boots out of my closet (I love boots, I have zillions of them) and a skirt neither too long nor too short.... oohh and the red lace corset top.... hahaha no ma would never let me out of the house in that, she feels its too slutty, so maybe I'll wear it with a jacket. except... it might actually seem slutty in the light of day... dunno, anyways. and then I was thinking about how I needed to buy some superglue and something to glue down then I realized that that totally defeats the purpose, and who wants to buy stuff all day. so I'll probably just go buy the sexy lengerie (yes I can't spell) and then maybe I'll do some escaping the camera. anyways, contemplation of material things.... yes that definately is today.

later on: and... actualization of material things as well.... I managed to spend way way too much, but it was still way way worth it. first time I ever had fun buying a bra!!! yay! anyways, I also bought some stuff to make for guilt free tasking (aka rechargable batteries for my cam) super glue, and a little present for my bf (a mini digital cam, since he can't find his dad's. this way, he can have his own to bring places, and has no excuse when I say, I wanna see a picture of your new haircut lol. he lives far away :( )
I've been really hyper and bouncy and bleah!y today, and sort of.... bouncing off the ways, but also super forgetful and flighty. in history class, we were talking about the alamo, and the teacher asked us what happened (to check if we did the reading and/or remember history 2-3 years ago), and I punched my fist up in the air and practically yelled "slaughter!!! there were several thousand mexian troops and only like... 200 texans, and the mexicans massacred the texians and we stupid americans still think it was a victory and something to celebrate." lol. I also forgot a meeting with my english teacher, AND one with my shrink. oops
I had lots of fun frolicking in the grass trying to do the escape from the camera task (and climbing trees trying to find places to put the camera)

lets see how the predictions of the future match up to what actually happened:
contemplation of material things: check
something significant in jewish history: well, sort of. lots of really deep thinking at least
wasn't grounded (therefore needed to be): major check
nothing really really dramatic happened:check
being very very materialistic: check
didn't even care that have few friends at school: check (didn't even notice lol)
stuff about the car: well... not so much

so 6/7? I'd say the future. what do you say stu?

I don't yet know if it's the future, but we'll see, I guess. Worth a vote to me.

Wow. That's quite a writeup. (And for some reason, I really get a kick out of the pencil arrow pointing at the chosen card.)

Looking forward to seeing the results of all those tasks in progress.

Welcome to the game.
