One alchemic symbol for the Yellow Phase state is the
peacock’s tail. The peacock’s tail was
chosen because of the many iridescent colors that shimmer within the long,
graceful feathers, and because of the brilliant blue, green, gold and red
“eyes” on those feathers, eyes that see past the distraction of the shimmering
colors in order to perceive that which is hidden. The
"eyes" on the peacock's tail are also thought to represent all
universes and the iridescence of its colors the entire spectrum of light that
reflects the infinite dimensions of consciousness.
My job now is to begin the process of becoming aware of the many facets or colors of
my soul, and then integrating them permanently into my conscious self. I’ve read that sometimes this stage is not
entirely pleasant at first; I need to persevere through the discomfort in order
to perceive the full display of the marvelous colors of the peacock's tail.
The Dreams of Gaia Ten of Earth has
returned yet again. The image on the Ten of Earth has quiet feel, a
pause perhaps to accept that I have fulfilled the promise of the Earth
cards. This is not vanity, but rather an
acknowledgement that my hard work is paying off and I am integrating what I
have learned into my day-to-day life. The keywords for this card, synthesis,
harmony, reward, inner peace, grace, highest good, and authenticity, validate
that. There is another important message
to be found here, hinted at within the image.
The woman, who is so immersed in the many beings and varied experiences
of the physical world that her skin is turning green in places, holds a mask in
her hands. That mask almost looks animal
in nature. She is telling me two things:
be myself and celebrate who I am, and know that my work is allowing me to
“become” another being in order to experience empathy and to know first-hand
that we are all connected.
Perhaps this time the Ten of Earth is telling me to continue hanging in there through the discomfort, because soon enough it will all come together.
