Part 11 (1/2)

A cup of water floats above the choppy waves. This is to remind us that when our hearts are so completely immersed in a situation, it helps if we keep our heads above water so that we can remain balanced and not get too carried away.

Behind the mermaid is a desertlike landscape. She's come from a place that wasn't fertile with nurturing energy, so she has swum farther out into the waters where there are more opportunities.

Angel Number The number for the Page of Water card is 47. This is a very evolved energy that walks with the Divine and the angels every day. We can trust the feelings and psychic messages that we receive at this time.

The number 47 reduces to the master number 11 (4 + 7), which does not reduce further. The number 11 tells us that our positive thoughts regarding ourselves and others will manifest in everyone's best interests.

People The Page of Water is a very kind, sensitive, and dreamy person. If we approach her, we will be welcomed with open arms and a hug so heartfelt that we're likely to be overwhelmed. Of course, we may have to be the one to do the approaching, as our Page is very shy. Love and romance are new to her, so she may be quite timid. Yet she's also a hopeless romantic.

Keep in mind that she experiences the world with her heart. If it's a heart-to-heart conversation we're seeking, she's our gal! If we want to intellectualize our situation, she's likely to just stare back at us blankly with nothing much to say.

Astrology The Pages in tarot don't represent a particular astrological attribution, but are a.s.sociated with a season and a geographical area of the world. The Page of Water represents summer and the lands of the Pacific.

Knight of Water

While the Page of Water heralds our first indicator of a powerful new emotional experience, the Knight of Water shows that we've been completely swept off our feet! This card refers to falling in love, offers of marriage, or any romantic experience that causes us to swoon. In fact, we may be thrown quite off balance by the entire situation and forget to remain grounded. This card can also herald an invitation to a social event of some kind.

Symbolism A handsome merman Knight comes galloping into our lives. He's making some pretty big waves as he arrives.

His companion is a dolphin, indicating that he's here to bring a note of playfulness.

He and the dolphin jump from the water, showing our Knight's ability to move from one emotional situation to another.

The Knight wears a winged helmet, signifying that he can move very quickly into our lives.

Unlike the Page of Water, the image in this card shows the cup completely submerged, indicating that we may very well be ”in over our heads.”

Angel Number The Knight of Water is Card 48. We're reminded that our angels are with us and answering our prayers as long as we remember to ask for their a.s.sistance. Since 8 is a number of expansion, we can antic.i.p.ate an abundance of emotion during this time.

The number reduces to 3 (4 + 8 = 12, 1 + 2 = 3). We have the choice to ask the ascended masters for their help as well. The number 3 is also traditionally related to communication, which is very important when dealing with the Knight of Water.

People The Knight of Water will sweep us completely off our feet! There will be poetry, roses, chocolates, or whatever it is that makes our heart go pitter-patter. This Knight practically invented the concept of romance, and we may never have felt so enamored.

However, we do have to be cautious. The Knight of Water may very well be our one true love, or he may just be a fling. We have to ask the right questions to truly discern if he's in love with us, or just in love with the whole wonderful feeling of being in love. It can be difficult to tell. Don't forget that in the image on the card, the Knight is jumping out of one wave into the next one. He can jump from one relations.h.i.+p to another just as easily.

Astrology Our Knight is Scorpio with a healthy dose of Libra thrown in for good measure. The Scorpio part of his world is extremely deep, emotional, and pa.s.sionate. However, it's not uncommon that the Libra part could love the ”chase” aspect of romance the most. Once the Knight has caught us, he might lose interest.

Queen of Water

This is a deeply emotional card, asking us to care for others, but to also see that we nurture ourselves just as much. Feelings run deep when this card is drawn, and there's likely to be something very significant going on in our relations.h.i.+ps (whether romantic or platonic).

This is also a card of profound psychic experiences. We're asked to listen to our guidance, feelings, and intuition very closely.

Symbolism A beautiful mer-angel floats along the top of the water. She's the only character in the suit of merpeople with wings. This symbolizes her angelic ability to care for others.

While the mer-angel is a deeply feeling person, her past experiences with love and relations.h.i.+ps make her able to ”rise above” and see the truth of a situation without getting carried away by it.

Whales are a.s.sociated with psychic gifts and the ability to delve deeply into emotional connections. They're also powerful symbols for creative gifts.

In the sky, there's a break in the clouds through which a bright star s.h.i.+nes. What is it that we're wis.h.i.+ng for in our relations.h.i.+ps?

Angel Number The Queen of Water is Card 49. We're asked to be of a.s.sistance to those around us as well as ourselves. The world needs us to be at work as part of our Divine purpose. If we require help, we can ask our angels for the guidance we need.

The number 49 reduces to 4 (4 + 9 = 13, 1 + 3 = 4). The energy of the angels and the need to seek out their help is amplified.

People The Queen of Water is an extremely nurturing, loving, and kind person. She spends a great deal of time looking after her family and friends. She places an arm around us and speaks in a soft and compa.s.sionate voice until our problems no longer seem so large. There's also no point in not telling her the absolute truth, as she's extremely intuitive and will know if we're not completely honest.

The Queen may forget to care for herself, which can make her seem tired and drained of energy. It's very important that she s.h.i.+eld herself daily with the royal blue light of Archangel Michael so that she can remain strong and healthy.

Astrology The Queen is Cancer tinged with Gemini. Cancer is nurturing and caring through and through. It will see to our needs whenever possible. The Gemini energy makes the Queen an incredible communicator. We are well advised to follow her guidance, especially if the topic relates to the heart.

King of Water

The King of Water asks us to open our hearts and show compa.s.sion to those around us. We're also asked to open our minds to new ideas and creative ways of thinking. We may be called upon to provide our time or money to charitable organizations.

When it comes to relations.h.i.+ps with other people, the King represents those we can fully trust. His heart is golden, and he operates with the highest degree of integrity.

Symbolism The merman King wears a large, flowing purple cape. Purple is the color of the crown chakra and indicates that he's a person of deep inner knowledge and high morals.

The pa.s.sion of the angelfish shows that the King hasn't stopped evolving emotionally or spiritually and that he feels very strongly about the causes he supports and the people in his life.

The dolphin represents community-the King is quite often a leader among the people he represents.
