Rev Mario told the story of how the gods were having a conversation about where they would hide their priceless gift to mankind, the pearl of individuality, so it would not be discovered and misused before the time was right for its revelation.
“Let us hide it at the bottom of the sea,” one god suggested. But after consideration, the Council of gods decided that humanity was very clever and would eventually be able to plumb the depths of the oceans, and find the pearl.
“Shall we put it on the Moon?” Again, the Council debated, and again they decided that human cleverness would even reach the Moon and find the pearl.
Finally, after a long silence, one young god suggested, “Let us place it in the human heart. They will never think to look for it there!” And so it was decided. The greatest gifts from Realm-2 are often given in plain sight, and yet hidden from those who look with Realm-1 eyes.
Realm-2, the spiritual worlds, decided to give a gift of deep esoteric and spiritual knowledge to humanity. What better place to hide the gift than in a simple pack of cards used for entertainment and enjoyment?
This didn’t happen overnight. It took Realm-2 about four hundred years of nudging and hinting until the Tarot developed into an appropriate vehicle for this wisdom and knowledge.
What made a game of cards suitable for a spiritual purpose?
To answer this question we need to understand something of Realm-2. Realm-2 is not a random consciousness of chaos, it is a consciousness which has structure.
When we commenced the Realm-2 website, we devised a heading which, much like the Tarot, contained coded information and description of Realm-2. You will see this header at the top of every Realm-2.com page. It looks like this:
The Realm-2 logo is a circle, divided in half with a centre of light shining through a purple gradient:
It is replicated three times and situated within a beautiful, physical environment.
Realm-2 is situated within the physical world. The physical world is, in fact the oldest and therefore the most perfect manifestation of Realm-2. Rudolf Steiner named this the “Saturn” incarnation of the earth. During this period humanity received the spiritual seed of what would become our physical body. Realm-2 next expressed itself through light. You can see this as the third circle. Steiner called this the “Sun” incarnation of the earth. During this time the etheric body which we hold in common with the plant kingdom was given to humanity.
The next phase is shown by the circle divided into two halves - yellow and blue. This is the “Moon” incarnation which was characterised by alternating periods of light and darkness. Here we received the astral body - which we have in common with the animal kingdom.
We have arrived at the final circle. This is our current consciousness. What was given in this period of earth evolution was the soul, the inner purple circle. Then, the human soul became endangered. This is the relevance of the Council of the gods - for the gift of Realm-2 was the light at the centre of the soul - the pearl of great price, our inner spark of divinity.
Realm-2 does not speak in words - but in symbols. The greatest symbols are first, number. Then form, ie the circles, then colour. Our awareness of Realm-2 is represented in the human aura by the colours we have created for ourselves. Dark reds, gloomy browns, greys and other dark colours indicate a soul whose vision is clouded by Realm-1 needs. Such a soul would focus on money, ownership, status and possession. Relationships would be transactional and based on physical or emotional gratification.
On the other hand, an aura which contained light colours, light reds, rose, blues, light yellow, light brown and so on is a person who understands that love, affection, romance, compassion, clear thinking and beauty are more important than your job or your bank account.
And yes, auras with purples, oranges, lilacs, violet, indigo, gold - represent souls who have poured their love out into the world, connected with the high beings of Realm-2 and committed themselves to assisting human evolution.
Just in case you are wondering - these colours are extremely rare ☺️
The Tarot also, is constructed of number, form, ie images and pictures, and colours. These elements carry Realm-2 energy and understanding into the Tarot decks.
Then there is narrative.
The Realm-2 heading carries within it the story of human evolution. Each Tarot card, as we shall see, contains its own story. What is special about the Tarot, is that the story within a Tarot card also depicts a story within the life of the individual working with it.
Our lives are woven of stories: our consciousness evolves from the stories we tell ourselves…
Next time: The continuing “story” …
