Starring Coco and my silly imagination on a Friday when I felt my muse was stalled.....
I decided to seek out a Fortune Teller (Madame Ondine) to get some answers. Although she refers to herself as a Purveyor of Truths. Her sign is a bit misleading and has lead to more than a few occasions where police burst in to her “sanctuary”. Madame Ondine, P.O.T. does not bode well with those who are not familiar with her Purveyor of Truths moniker or what she does in there (thus the police raids).
A first she wanted to look at my hands although she is not a palm reader. She then asked me some questions and touched my forehead. She smelled of incense and lavender. She drank tea from a china cup but no saucer. Her "sanctuary" was warm and inviting making me feel at ease. When she announced we would begin she began to sway and then a great light washed over her.
She looked to be in a trance as the light bounced off her. The light looked like it was created from gossamer wings and fire flies. It was not harsh.
She went in to deep thought after having me tell her what I was seeking answers to once again.
She bowed her head and said things like: “deliver me unto the spark of a quiet and peaceful mind” and “delve with me in between the asking phrases to get to the core of the questions” "Find the muse and awaken the openness to dance freely". "Allow a slowing of the fervor and make it a calm spirit". "
When she looked up again she held a silver heart near her throat, it was glowing. I surmised this was what she used to call upon the answers or truths.
She worked with the heart for quite a while.....she was gentle and sweet and the more she gazed at it and whispered her words the more it moved and shone in her hand until a bubble formed around it's perimeter.
Suddenly she stopped,covered her eyes with her head band and held the heart under her hand near her throat.
She whispered in to her hand "Transfer the quandry in to clarity"
She closed her eyes
and with them still closed she reached out and placed the heart in my hand. I could feel its intensity immediately. She told me all the answers were contained within and I that I should place it beneath my pillow each night. She said the answers come in dream form and I will be enlightened during slumber.
With that she turned her back to me as if to say we were finished. I had hoped to hear the answers right then, words of wisdom or at the very least what to expect. I decided to do as she asked and whispered thank you making my way out.
What is it I wanted to know, you ask?
Ah, that will have to remain between the silver heart and myself for now....... but I WILL say I am hopeful.
