If anyone would like a reading done by me with the Sacred Scarabs, just drop me a line via email or private message. Or here I guess, that would work. hehe. Just thought I'd offer in case anyone is interested.

I can do Australian Animal Readings too (similar to Native American Medicine Cards) if anyone would rather that. :)
I could use the practice in both mediums!

Question: Will I ever get to have a face-to-face conversation with a Goddess? In a dream, or a vision, that sort of thing?

CARD DRAWN: Brolga (reversed)
Brolga is saying that you need to spend more time looking within and expressing your creativity. Brolgas are very beautiful birds who like to "dance" - so Brolga might be indicating that you need to learn to "let go" through the dance and embrace the divine. Trance dancing might be something you could look into as brolgas are also quite hypnotic.
Brolga says "Be prepared to allow self-love to enter your life, and stop being so critical of yourself. We are perfect as we are, no matter what others think. Express yourself, and be prepared to allow your hypnotic rhythms of creativity to enhance your life."
On a personal note, my cousin does trance dancing, and it's very successful thing for her. She just turns on the music loud, lets herself flow to the music, and she had several 'beings' (not sure if they are guides or gods) show themselves to her in the dance. So I would encourage you to check out that avenue.
It's kind of a hard question to answer as it's so subjective to your personal development, but I'd get into dancing and open yourself up to the Goddess's divine intervention :) You'll get there!

Thanks Lilu!! Wow, that's so accurate-- Sometimes when I'm not so concerned with being self-conscious, and am just dancing in my room, I do reach almost a trance-like state, and it's a wonderful feeling. :) The only problem is, my room is like 9 feet wide, and I always bang into my dresser or TV or stereo. 8O
Thanks so much for the reading! It was just the ticket topping to this very-good-day. :D

Glad to have helped! The trance-like states are wonderful, but I know the problem with limitations of room! I used to trip over my living room table! haha! You might also like to try drumming, chanting or something like that to bring on a trance-like state. But I think the cards were saying dancing is the way for you :)

Hi Hope,
I'm not sure I understand the question? So I just pulled a card to see which animal had a message for you today:
The card I pulled for you was the Brushtail Possum.
Possum's wisdom is persistance and ego. He's asking you to be persistent in your endeavours. Don't give up easily. Even if things are looking like you'll never get there don't throw in the towel because you will eventually get the results you desire.
Hope this was interesting!

OK. Here goes!
Current Situation - Bast
hehehe (couldn't have pulled a better scarab to describe you at the moment) - Bast is all about artistic careers - dance, theater, graphic arts etc. - She indicates that people who are artistically oriented will soon grow bored in ordinary jobs if not kept stimulated in the arts.
Course of Action - Khepera
Khepera is the lord of becomings. Khepera, can indicate form, manifestation, shape, image, change and transformation. He can often indicate that divine intervention is at hand and that you should follow your instincts. New assignments/beginnings.
Final Outcome - Ankh
The ankh is a powerful creation sign. The Egyptian gods carry ankhs as evidence of their power to transmit and create life. This is a positive sign that whatever course you follow will work out well. Money-wise it indicates the sufficient resources for whatever is needed, and can indicate new assignments/beginnings.
The final outcome wasn't exactly clear, so I pulled a couple of clarifying scarabs with the following results:
Tahuti - With regard to education and such Tahuti is a positive sign. He was a gambler, and can often indicate that a risky investment may pay off.
Ushabti - Careerwise, Ushabti can indicate the hiring of new employees. Expect to be supervising new or inexperienced workers.
OK. So here's how I read them. I think it's a positive indication that if you have your heart set on going back to school, then the time is right to do so. You are obviously bored with your current situation, and with Khepera in the course of action place He is saying that it the time is right for new beginnings. The Ankh symbolises success in whatever course you choose to take, but with Tahuti as a clarifier, it's leaning toward a successful education endeavour. The Ushabti may indicate that you should look to hire someone on in your current business to keep that afloat while you are going back to school. All in all, you should follow your heart and your instincts - if you have the ability to do it, then I say go for it!
Hope this helps!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
I thought Bast for my current situation was spot on ~ aswell as being a goddess of cats!! As I have just become a proud mummy of two kitty cats and I love them to bits.. they are a big part of my life too at the moment! Its great she came up as an artistic career too because that is what (im learning) I want! :)
Course of Action - Khepera ~ Yes deffinately what I want and want Im getting Itchy for because I knew this was coming for me!
Final Outcome - Ankh ~ Tahuti and ushabti ~ Spot on again babe!! I really hope it does work well and turns out great :) as it is a bit of a gamble and I will have to employ staff being away which is a bit scarey for me at the moment...
:sunny:
They are really cool for readings! & very you! Your a great reader with them! :sunny:

So my interpretation would be that you have no reason to be concerned about doing well in school at all. The temple represents you right now, which is obviously preparation for school and heading into that kind of a world. The Starry Sky of Nut holds out for a very good new beginning. Tahuti is a great scarab to get with regard to schooling. He is the scribe - and so communication/writing/reading is all accentuated by him, and this is only added to by Seshat, Lady of Writing. Min is a good sign of success, and that you will have no problems meeting the challenges provided you.
So what are you going to be studying??? Looking at this I'd swear it's got to be in the communications area... computer languages would be my first guess (but then I know you are into programming) and if not then is it writing or journalism or something???
Hope this helps!

I was JUST about to post this hours ago when my phone line inexplicably DIED for about 4 hours. Grrrrrr. Whatever someone was doing took out the whole neighbourhood. :( But hey, I had a nice afternoon with my neighbour and baby so I won't complain too much :) Here's what I have for you!
Hi Amora!
I did a scarab reading for you, and here it is!
1. Current Situation - Union of Isis & Osiris
Marriage or committed relationships. Soul mates. Perfect Unions. Good Sexual Relations.
2. Course of Action - Heqet the Frog
Happiness. Active emotions and sexuality. Sudden positive change.
3. Final Outcome - Khepera
Divine Intervention. Trust Instincts and follow them. Possibly represent an older man.
Temple: - Relationships that have a sacred dimension, which may or may not be sexual/romantic. Divine union and sometimes marriage.
Tahuti - In romance, look to friends who can help bring together individuals or offer counsel on existing relationships. Can also indicate platonic friendships.
INTERPRETATION
The first scarab talks about where you are now, which is seeking a relationship that is committed and positive. The course of action seems to indicate that happiness is on the way, so I think that your intuition that change is on the way is a true one. Heqet indicates positive, sudden change. Be on the look out for signs that you might not be looking for. Divine is looking out for you, and you need to trust the the right person for you will come along when you are ready.
Khepera could be indicating an older man is who you are looking for (being led to?), or maybe an older man to who you should seek advice from. The final outcome is positive. However, Tahuti and the Temple combination is interesting. It could symbolise that you are to look to a friend who might lead you to this person, OR I am getting more of an inclination that this new relationship will begin as a platonic relationship and develop into something more.
Hope this proves interesting

Here is your reading :)
Current Situation - Ankh
Sacred Unions, possibly resulting in pregnancy. New energy. Pregnancy and childbirth. Harmony and hope.
Course of Action - Ushabti
Can indicate undue dependency on another. Seek advice. Family meetings. Delegation.
Final Outcome - Feather of Maat
Balance in all things. Adhere to proper diet and other health practices. Right relationships in accord with cosmic law. Clear-heartedness toward partners. Clarification of feelings.
Tahuti - Pay attention to doctors and other experts in this area.
Khepera - Benevolent for existing relationships. Issues dealing with previous generations and family history.
INTERPRETATION:
It's important to remember that a reading at any time MAY glimpse into the future, but nothing is ever written in stone. The future is ever-changing and relies entirely on our actions and the choices we make at every moment. So while this is a glimpse into where things stand right now, it may not stay true.
Ankh represents your desire to have children with your current boyfriend, that much is clear. Ushabti indicates that things might not be ready for that sort of committment yet. Ushabti can represent being too dependent on someone, and may call for you to find a little independence of your own before moving into such a big decision. Ushabti may also mean that you need to discuss this with your boyfriend to gauge his thoughts on the matter too.
Feather of Maat is balance. With the clarifying scarabs (which didn't really help clarify much ;) ) I am getting the impression that perhaps you may be afraid there is a physical reason you can't have children? There are a lot of physical references here, family history, doctors, experts. If you are afraid of any of this, or if your family has had a history of fertility problems etc, you might want to check with an expert to make sure everything is in working order :) Maat calls for balance in all, body, mind and spirit to have ultimate health, keep this in mind too.
As to a final decision on children, the scarabs are being decidedly unclear on this, which is not surprising because we can't always look into the future and see a definite. I see that if things all go well healthwise and relationship wise, the future is set up to be positive in children, but like I said, the future is very misty, we can't always get a definite answer and it would be wrong of me to make one up. :(
Hope this is interesting for you, and know, the future is never written in stone. What will be will be. Focus on the present, that's the gift!
Bright Blessings,
Lilu

hai, although I"m WAAAY to young to be thinking about stuffs like that, really. . .

lol yes, in the past I *have* been concerned about if I could have children in the future, because of how wild my periods were. . . I'm taking a drug to regulate it now, but it still makes me wonder sometimes "am I going to be able to have a child when I'm finally old enough?
Lately I've been trying to become more independant, because I've been relying on him (my boyfriend) way too much, and I finally realized that no matter what I do for him, only he can make himself truely happy, and that the same went for me, only *I* could make myself truely happy. So I decided to start doing some of the things I did before I met him. . . like do stuff *I* wanted to do and let him do stuff *HE* wanted to do, instead of us both being grumpy about some *US* activity. . . we NEED time apart 8O I've also been thinking of beginning a mission to eat better and stuffs. . . and I'm really looking forward to my classes starting tommorrow, because I"ll be doing lots of walking, and badmitton twice a week. -_-; just when I buy new clothes I"ll need MORE new ones. .. LOL
I'm very glad that the future seems positive about kids. . . about the only thing I've been sure of my whole life is that someday I want children, and by gods I"m going to accomplish that somehow! not now, but when I"m ready. . . and I really really hope that it's my boyfriend that I'mwith now. . . he's the only person I ever want to be with, really.

Hi Nuah!
Here's what I'm getting from the scarabs.
Current Situation - Serqet the Scorpion
Favours exploring spirituality through the healing arts and by protecting others. Can speak for areas to be strengthened and controlled.
Course of Action - Shen
Suggests any sort of method relying on practice and repetition that will bring rewards and insight over the long term. Employ mantras, chanting, daily practices of yoga and tai chi, daily meditations, and similar practices.
Final Outcome - Set
Beware of being self-centred or of exerting domination of others in the name of religion. The outside, the rebel. Perpetual discontent.
Clarifiers Crook & Flail of Osiris, Bast
Crook and Flail - Initiation. Soul retrieval. Casting off the material in favour of the spiritual. A time of turning inward. Study of the afterlife, reincarnation, the otherworld etc.
Bast - Meditative pursuits but also upbeat, practical philosophies. Not a time to abandon material things in favour of spiritual pursuits. Explore dancing, drumming, body work, and sacred sexuality.
INTERPRETATION
The Scorpion indicates that you've been going through a period of study and focusing on areas that need strengthening. If you haven't already started, then you are considering doing so. Shen encourages you to begin or continue your studies in your favoured areas of study. It also indicates that you may not be able to absorb everything at once, so repetition will help you grasp and understand that which you are learning. Shen is particularly favourable if you are studying anything involving repetition like tai chi, yoga, daily meditation, daily ritual, chanting etc. I would also think that studying something like tarot or some other oracle would be favoured, as many people learn that through repetitious study, either studying the meanings over and over, or casting readings over and over until it comes naturally.
Set is an interesting one. I would think he indicates that you are either acting from a rebellious standpoint, or acting self-centred in your studies and to not let these emotions get the better of you. The Crook and Bast are conflicting in their messages of casting off either physical or spiritual stuff, so I think this means that you need to find a balance between the physical and spiritual world. Together the two clarifying scarabs can indicate a period of looking within, meditation, and perhaps getting into drumming, dancing etc.
All in all it's a positive message about your studies. You seem to be doing well, but balance seems to be the key here, and you have to make sure you have it in order to advance in the best possible way :)
Hope this is interesting!

Hi LadyAutumnCat!
I'm going to try a new reading called the Temple Reading with the scarabs. It's supposed to be good for questions regarding any two individuals. I've never done one of these before, so if it doesn't make any sense, I'll try something else :)
...
Well, it came out much easier to understand than I thought! I'm going to start another thread for this style of readings, and put it there. Look in Divination for "Temple Reading", I'll put it there :)

Hi AmethystRose,
This is what I got in regard to the question asked about your boyfriend's job situation.
Current Situation - Seshat
Successful communication.
Course of Action - Serqet The Scorpion
Favourable for work in medical research. Can also be good for work in security or in any field where protecting others is a part of it, such as childcare. In most cases success will be in a group atmosphere, working with others rather than independently.
Final Outcome - Sistrum of Hathor
Taking action to improve situations. Shakeups at work. New colleagues, managers, opportunities.
Interpretation
I think this is a very positive reading! It seems to verify all you are going through right now. The first scarab is the lady of writing, which most likely symbolises all those resumes you are probably sending out, and associated correspondence with this - and that things are going ok. Serqet the scorpion is an interesting scarab, I think the reference may refer to a new job, or if not - possibly an interview that will be successful. Serqet can also stand for sudden change - so if it's a change in his job situation (ie. going from unemployed to employed) this is good!
The Sistrum talks about new colleagues, managers and opportunities so the final outcome is good too! I take this as a positive sign that everything is going to work out for you. :)

Hi S1ren,
It sounds like the same scarabs - I kind of compare them to runes because they are about the same size, but that's about the only similarity. Mine came in a kit put out by deTraci Regula and Kerigwen. My scarabs have hieroglyphs on the underbelly of them - and each hieroglyph has it's own individual symbolism. I have a pic of them somewhere on the boards here, but you can also look by clicking here (http://www.johndoe.org/undercurrents/graphics2/scarabs.jpg).
If you do have the same scarabs, there is a book that comes with them that explains all the symbolisms and also has a few spreads to try in them - it's written by deTraci Regula, I can't think of the name offhand, but if you want to know I can look it up (mind fog). I generally use a three scarab spread 1 - 2 - 3
1 - Current Situation 2- Course of Action 3 - Final Outcome
There is also another spread called the "Temple Reading" that I do, which you can read about here (http://www.mysticwicks.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6678&highlight=temple+reading)
If you have any other questions, let me know!

Yes! :cool:
I saw that kit online, but couldn't afford it, hehe. So I bought some scarab beads, and was going to paint them to use...but sinc I didn't have the kit I didn't know what to do with them.
This 3-scarab spread, is that similar to the rune spread? I saw the link you sent:)
Yay! I think I might go dig them out tonight and paint em :D
Thanks!

Re: Path to Walk
Current Situation: Heqet the Frog
Magick. Folk Spells. Midwifery. Wicca-type paths. Oracles and divination.
Course of Action: Temple
Active time religiously and spiritually. Good time for daily study and practices, and exploring traditional or ancient faiths. Establishment of ceremonies, ritual and spiritual organisations.
Final Outcome: Nile
Follow a path of non-conflict and nonviolence. Taoist practices fit this description - go around the rock instead of over or through it, as a river flows. Meditation and sacred travel.
Interpretation
Hi Wyshbringer,
From what the scarabs are telling me, you've been checking out a bunch of different paths, mostly Wiccan-like ones or folk ways. Perhaps a little of green witchcraft even, and it looks like you have an interest in oracles or have tried them out at some time too. However, that doesn't seem to be the path that you are looking for. I am guessing that something is missing from your studies, something that you can't pin down (der! you wouldn't ask if you did know right? ;) )
Well, I really didn't know if the scarabs - being Egyptian oriented- would provide me with much of an answer, but they really came through for me! Right there in black and white! A path of non-conflict such as Taoism. Buddhism too would possibly be something to look into. Wicca is like this to a certain extent because of it's "harm none" rede, but because of the "course of action" pointing to a more traditional or ancient path, I am leaning toward Buddhism or something similar.
Has it ever appealed to you in any way? Have you ever known someone who studied it? Perhaps it is time to seek out an established group/church/temple to practice with. If there happens to be a Buddhist or Taoist or similar group around, I'd look into that, it just might be what you're looking for, and if not, it seems like Wicca might be another option for you :)
Good luck!

Wow you really hit it! I have been looking at different paths and Wicca has been almost the right one, but your right something is missing. I'll look into Taoism. It sounds interesting Maybe I'll like it!
could you expalin this though I have nooooooo idea what it means:

Those were just the scarabs that I drew to answer your question. Heqet was where you are now (looking at Wicca and other similar paths), the Temple was your "course of action" which seemed to indicate joining a group or taking on a more spiritual lifestyle, and the Nile suggested Taoism or another similar religion that is non-aggressive.

Three Scarab Reading for Mist of the Sea
16th January 2002
Re: Relationships & Love
Current Situation: The Pyramids. You are either in a relationship right now that has been a long-term union, or you are looking for that kind of relationship right now. Pyramids can also indicate relationships that build slowly - so it's also possible that you are wondering if a current relationship is going anywhere. This is a hard scarab to call in regard to current situation - but from the other scarabs, I'm getting the impression that you might be looking for a relationship.
Course of Action: Feather of Maat. Clarify your feelings. This could be in relation to someone you care about, but I'm inclined to think that it's time for you to sit down and work out what you really want in a relationship. What kind of person are you truly looking for? Are you sure you even want to be in a relationship right now? Things like that. Make a list of what it is you are wanting right now, and possibly, offer it up to the Universe and be open to what comes into your life. Remember, be careful what you wish for too ;)
Final Outcome: Anupu. Look to your dreams to find your partner. Is there anyone who has been cropping up a lot lately that you find attractive? Maybe you should explore that? Pay heed to your subconscious beliefs and desires. Ask Anupu (aka Anubis) to show you in your dreams who you should be looking for.
Hope this provides a little insight. If not, let me know and I'll try something else ;)

Can I be next?
I've recently been trying to get a new job. I've been sending out an average of 3 resumes a week for a month now, and I haven't heard a single thing from any of them.
Am I doing this wrong? Should I be trying, anyway? I really want to work somewhere more stable: my current job is like standing underneath the piano dangling from the window above in the cartoons, you know? Plus, they treat us horribly and we have CRAP benefits. It's also quite the dead-end job. I just want OUT, but I'm not getting anywhere.
-----------------------------------------
On a personal, and probably annoying note (I hope not)...I looked at the pictures of the scarabs you posted. Most of those symbols were the ones I was considering using on the scarabs I'm going to make, but there are a few that are strange to me. I can kind of figure out the meanings of some, based on the readings you've given people on this thread, but of course, each of those is personalized. Would you mind explaining the symbols and their meanings to me? I hate to hijack this thread...you can email me or PM me if you want. Or you can tell me to buzz off ;) I won't be offended...this is YOUR thread, after all :cool:

Hi S1ren,
I'll work on a reading for you tomorrow :)
As for the meanings of the scarabs, I don't know if I can really help you out with that - I'd recommend trying to get the set myself, because the meanings of each scarab vary according to what is being asked. For instance, Horus's approach to a love question is considerably different to if the question were about family or career or a spiritual path etc. All this is in the book, and it would take me forever to explain it to you, I haven't fully learned it all myself yet! I wish I could help you out, but I really do recommend the set if you think this is an oracle you might like.

Three Scarab Reading for S1ren
17th January 2002
Re: Career Change
Current Situation: Palm Tree. This is a time when you may need to voice unpopular opinions at work. Assignments may require working in isolation or at locations far away. Business travel and jobs in the tourism industry are other possibilities, so look into these too.
Course of Action: Union of Isis & Osiris. This scarab often indicates a need for teamwork. It might indicate that you should talk with some of your co-workers, they might have some insight into making either the current work situation better, or an idea where you can look for new work.
Final Outcome: Lotus. This scarab indicates abundance unfolding after a dark or murky beginning. Problems at work can be outgrown - don't rush to change jobs, but possibly change your attitude.
It seems to me that this reading is indicating that the problem at work may not be unsalvagable. It might not be that changing is the right thing for you right now. Instead, team up with your co-workers and work toward implimenting some of the changes that you'd like to see there.

Wow, you're good :)
This is a time when you may need to voice unpopular opinions at work. Assignments may require working in isolation or at locations far away.
MOF, right after I posted that I found out that my entire job description is being changed: I start training monday to do EVERYTHING differnetly, at a different location, and I have to move offices next week, too! I've been in constant contact with my managers about all this, for a few days now...my answer (even to those unpopular opinions) is always "sorry, it's the new policy". Grr.
Unfortunately, as a contractor, there's nothing we can do over here, even if we did team up. We can either deal with it, or quit. I'm still looking...but given the "abundance after a murky beginning"...I'm wondering now if the changes will be as bad as they seem. I think I'll stick it out and see how the new job goes, for a while.
Thanks! :) I really appreciate it. And...sigh...I guess I'll have to quit being cheap and buy the book, LOL! I'm really interested in this...I guess it's not so much $ to pay, when you really want something :) Again, thanks :)
