Request for reading

[Jason]

Hello Edward, I hope I am doing this right. May I please have a general reading?

[Edward]

Hey Jason,

I split your request off of the other post and made it its own post, and I will work on this tomorrow for you, my friend. 

[Jason]

I see. Sorry still getting used to the forum.

[Edward]

I see. Sorry still getting used to the forum.

For sure. I've been using these forums for nearly 20 years, so it's easier for me to do some of the stuff. But I'm working on your reading now.

Hello Jason,

As you can see by the first card, the past card, the 8 of Cups, it is a sad card. The figure is walking away under a moon, despondent, depressed. I see that you have been this figure in the past. And as a result, this reading is very much a message from the Divine for you. He has given us the cards, and the Holy Spirit has given me the interpretation. You have been down, and this has fundamentally changed your life.

Look now at the present card, it is the 4 of Swords. It indicates a death or a funeral. And I know that you have lost your wife, and I know that's why God has chosen this card, because what it means derives from that loss. But it is not actually about her funeral. It is about the end of your life as you know it now. Your life as you know it is ending. Not physically. I don't see your death in this at all, rather this is you putting the past to rest. You are putting the 8 of Cups to rest. And the future card tells us how this is going to happen.

You are going to be in a command position. That's what the King of Swords indicates, but it's more specific than that. You are going into a training role in your life. Perhaps as a teacher of some sort. This is a role you will fill, and the depth of your life experience will come to bear in your success in that role. You will be a specialist, and you will be a teacher, and this will be a new life for you in your future. You are going to be in charge, and you are going to bring knowledge to people who don't have it. Again, the nature of this "in charge" is as much academic as managerial--like a teacher.

You can always reject this path when you come upon it. That's why we get readings: so we can make a choice. But you should follow this path when it reveals itself to you because you will do a lot of good for others, and it will heal you as well. It's time for this new life, my friend.

God bless you, and may Christ be in you.

Thank you Edward, yes I will follow this path. I will surely be in charge of Soldiers in the coming year. I am fighting everyday to find peace in my mind that my wife exists and that I will find her in the afterlife. Some days are harder than others. I check everyday for a new podcast but I know you are taking on a new career path. Thanks again.

You're welcome.

I wish there was something I could say that would make you believe in her continued existence--because I'm certain of it. But even if that's the case, she's not here in the physical world with you. It's like you're deployed here still, and she's at home. You'll see her again. I know it. But God still has work for you here in the world before you get to PCS out of here. So, hang in there. Put your faith in God and your hope in Christ, and move through your mission, you know?

As for the Podcasts, it may be a few months honestly. I do have to prepare for this new career, but I'm not going to cease working on and for this church. In fact, I do more now with it than when I was constantly on Facebook. It's my diversion from the studying, you know? And this is also where I find my faith and hope.

How are you kids doing?

[Jason]

The kids seem to be doing ok. They miss their mommy but are much more resilient than me. My oldest Kaley who is 9 seems to have some rebellion in her against me. I find myself constantly nagging at her. I have explained that mommy is in heaven watching us and we will see her again. They are excited to go to heaven and for all of us to be together again. I told them we can't rush to heaven and we have to stay here and do our best with our lives until our time comes and we never know when that could be. I talk to them about Jesus a lot and that he is the way to heaven. They understand but only wish things would have not changed like they did. I told them me too.

That sounds like good counseling to me. That's a good way to present it to them, in my opinion.
