Mr. Mellifluous and the Lord of Dominion
As you near the end of your musical journey through the realms of Pentacles, Swords, Cups, and Wands, you reach a castle. When you climb to the top of the castle wall to take in a view of the entire domain, you encounter a man who holds the world in one hand and a wand in the other. He seems relaxed and content with himself. He is not an emperor, but when you open your mind to impressions, you sense the power of the Emperor within him. The man, though average in appearance, contains the potent force of Mars and the Fire of Ares, but you sense that he also contains the forces of all the realms that you have experienced. He is in complete dominion of himself.
Suddenly the Emperor appears and speaks, “The microcosm is a reflection of the macrocosm, the individual energy field a reflection of the Universal Energy Field. As above, so below. You contain all of the energies of Pentacles, Swords, Cups, and Wands. With these energies, you create your own world. Within your own sphere, no one else but you can handle and manifest these energies. This is your gift and your great responsibility.
“As you gaze at the world, you might ask yourself: How am I going to use these energies? You are a magnificent spiritual being, with the potential for great harmony and abundance, but you can also use these energies to create a world of fear and hate.
“Look, my friend, the sun is shining. Only you can decide how to use the energies of the Source, no matter what situation you are born in, and you will ultimately judge yourself about whether or not you have used them wisely.”
Four of Pentacles
Claire notices a king with four pentacles, one on his head, one he is holding, and two below his feet, and she flies down to greet him.
"Hello, your majesty!" she exclaims.
"Why, hello, dear child, how are you today?"
"Very well, your highness. Thank you for asking. I was wondering. Why do you have a golden pentacle on your head?"
"To make wise decisions, I must first know the unity of all creation, dear child. The star reveals the unity of the elements of Earth, Air, Water, and Fire, as well as a fifth known as Ether, or Spirit, and the elements are linked with the energies of the planets and the zodiac. The energies are all unified within the golden circle of eternity. I strive to make decisions from the perspective of eternity and the unity of all creation, so when facing a decision, I first think of the pentacle at my crown."
"Thank you, your highness. If you don't mind me asking, why are you holding a pentacle so close to your chest?"
"To make a wise decision, dear child, I must feel compassion and understanding, so I ask my heart to help me make a decision based on compassion for all life and the underlying unity of all consciousness."
"Thank you, your majesty. If you don't mind me asking, why are pentacles under your feet?"
"They are there to remind me that what I imagine and feel and decide will manifest in the kingdom. I ask my feet if my choices and decisions are harmonious and balanced, for I know that what I manifest will affect not just myself but my family and the whole family of humanity and the community of all life."
"Thank you, your majesty. When I become a queen and rule my kingdom, I will remember what you have told me, and I will imagine a golden pentacle at my crown and one in my heart, and one under each foot, so that I think and feel and act as wisely as you," Claire responds.
Then she bows and waves goodbye and flies around a long time above the harmonious kingdom.
Go on a different adventure with Mr. Mellifluous.
