Oracle Symbols Pt2: Deepen Your Symbol Intuition

Did you know I offer a free Facebook group as part of this course? I encourage you to join, be amongst like-minded souls, practice what you learn throughout the course, ask questions, and join our live meetups.

What can you do to squeeze the very most out of this course? Let me tell you in this short video. Because I want you to walk away from this course feeling you've learned and achieved as much as possible, that your knowledge and understanding of symbols has grown, and that you leave having created a library of symbol meanings and interpretations that you relate to.

It's important to set an intention before you begin any project in life so you stay on track and, at the end, you can look back at what you have achieved. Such a simple exercise yet such a powerful exercise.

When we work with Angel and Oracle cards, no matter what the context, we achieve the best results when we open ourselves to the support and guidance of the angelic and spiritual realm, inviting their wisdom and guidance to flow through us.

Opening up is an intricate part of this course because you will be working with your intuition, guidance that comes from the angels, from the Universe, from your higher self. Every time you start an element of this course, I encourage you to repeat this lecture - you will notice the difference in how ideas and information flow to you as a result.

Similarly, when you finish studying for the day, I encourage you to Close Down - you can find the lecture which teaches you how to close down towards the end of this course.

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

What are symbols and how are they different from words? And how can the meaning behind symbols change, depending on the context?

Are you aware just how much you use symbols in everyday life or the close link between symbols and memory recall? Let's explore this a little deeper.

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

How do you connect the dots between symbols in order to pass on a cohesive message?

Why choose to focus on and interpret cards using symbols? What are the advantages? Let's find out.

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

What should you do when this happens? And what should you not do when this happens?

Let's turn our attention to more common symbols found on Angel and Oracle cards and begin to add even more content to the Library of Symbols we started in the previous course: Understanding and Interpreting Symbols on Angel & Oracle Cards (Part 1)

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

What do you think of when you think of water? Do you think only of the wter you pour into a glass or do you think of the different forms of water such as rivers and oceans? In this section we cover it all.

Water, pure water, the water we might drink, the water that covers the planet. Something so pure and simple, can it really have so much symbolic meaning?

Although technically different, for all intents and purposes, the sea and the ocean attract the same symbolic meanings on Angel and Oracle cards. Let's determine what the sea and ocean symbolise for you through a visualisation.

Have you ever sat on a beach and watched the waves roll in, or, during a storm, listened to the waves crashin on the beach? What could waves symbolise when you find them on Angel or Oracle cards? The accompanying visualise may be of help.

When it comes to determining the symbolic meaning of a river, let’s break down what a river is, what it does, how it begins and how it ends.

Although not commonly found on Angel and Oracle cards, waterfalls carry beautiful and powerful symbolic meanings.

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

From the vastness of the oceans and water around us to the vastness of the sky above us - the sky and all that is in it - that's what we're going to explore in this section.

When people talk about symbols that catch their eye on an Angel or Oracle card they tend to talk about the stars in the sky or the sun in the sky. Rarely do they simply mention the sky. But does that mean the sky is unimportant?

Those twinkling illuminating lights in the night sky. What do they symbolise on an Angel or Oracle card? Let's do a visualisation together to get to know the stars better.

The Moon - the ever constant yet changing presence in the night sky. What does she symnbolise to you? And is it enough to know your symbolic meaning for the moon or do you also feel drawn to investigate the symbolic meanings behind her primary phases?

From the night-sky we transition to the day-time sky and the first symbol we will consider is that mighty ball of fire that is the sun.

What happens when both the moon and the sun appear on an Angel or Oracle card and each symbol feels equally important and you feel the two symbols are acting together as one? Let's find out.

Sometimes white and billowing, sometime grey and heavy, what do clouds symbolise? Let's find out through another visualisation.

The beautiful, colourful that appears every now and then in the sky. What message could a rainbow bring us when on an Angel or Oracle card?

When you've been interpreting cards for a while using symbols, you can get to the stage where the angels are pushing you (albeit gently and lovingly) towards getting even deeper into some meanings, and trees are one such example.

The mighty oak tree. What can we gleen from the characteristics and life of the oak tree?

There are some rather unusal characteristics associated with bamboo which attract some interesting symbolic meanings.

Where do you commonly find a cypress tree? How do cypress trees grow? We ask these questions and more in this video to determine the possible symbolic meanings of this tree.

Do you know how long a cherry blossom tree blossoms for every year? It might surprise you. This detail, and more, brings beautiful symbolic meaning to this tree.

What relation does the apple tree with mankind, today and throughout history? How far back in time does the apple tree go and does that give us a glimpse into the important symbolism behind this tree?

There are so many varieties of tree in the world, do you need to know every one of them in order to be interpret the messages the angels are sending you through your cards?

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

Similar to diving deeper into the types and species of trees, we want to do the same for flowers. There are a number of specific flowers that appear often on Angel and Oracle cards, so let's look at some of the common ones.

A short recap on what we covered in this section and a brief overview of what's to come in the next section.

We're not the only species on this planet. We live among some pretty insightful and intelligent insects, birds, fish and animals who are all too keen to pass messages onto us through their appearance in Angel and Oracle cards.

The butterfly is quite a complex insect with a complex lifecycle, a lifecycle that brings a lot of symbolic meaning to the symbol that is the butterfly on an Angel or Oracle card.

The dragonfly - some might think quite a simple, basic insect. However, the dragonfly is brimming with symbolic meaning. After this video you may never view a dragonfly in the same light again.

For a fish to survive, it needs water. Therefore, when determining the symbolic meaning of this water-based creature, we can't ignore how closely connected and linked it is to the symbol of water.

Birds can fly through the air, walk on the earth and swim in water. A creature with access to so many elements must attract a lot of symbolic meaning. Let's uncover what symbolic meanings for birds resonate with you through a visualisation.

Whilst feathers are closely connected (and, of course, attached) to the bird, sometimes we find feathers on an Angel or Oracle card on their own. So it's important to consider the symbolic meaning of feathers when they appear on a card on their own.

All flying creatures have wings. Wings, however, aren't confined to only creatures, you may also find wings in relation to angels, fairies or other beings on an Angel or Oracle card. So, what might wings symbolise?

As wise as an owl. Is that the only symbolic meaning behind this wise old bird? Indeed are owls actually wise or have them been deceiving us all along? Find out more in this video.

The dove. Linked to so many stories, so many symbols throughout history. This is a fascinating bird to learn more about.

From the animal kingdom we have the horse. What symbolic meanings do you think a horse attracts? Let's experience many of these symbolic meanings through a visualisation. (Note: please allow time for this visualisation)
