A Lifetime of Artistry

                                                A Lifetime of Artistry

January 26, 2012

You have a long lifetime history of artistry. I don’t know if you are aware, but you are an artist down to your core! And it is creativity that truly fuels your fire. I get the sense it’s what makes you feel alive. This is a part of who you are, dating back to the Mayan times when I feel you first established your creative artistry, which was welcomed by the culture of that time. I see a more recent past life of a Persian existence. In this lifetime, you came from a wealthy home and had everything you needed and desired. But due to the time period in which you lived, you were not allowed to work because you were a woman. It was just the way things were and you never expected anything more. I believe you were quite content with your life. I see you painting vivid bright colors, a very intricate ornate design on things that look like genie lamps and little dishes/fine china; things that only the wealthy owned, for decor, not for use. You would not have been allowed to sell these things of course, but you used them in your own home for decoration and it made you very happy, giving you a sense of accomplishment to see them displayed around your home. I believe other people admired this talent about you too. It was a hobby- as you didn’t have any real demands coming from others and had a lot of time to yourself.

 Career: The downfall I suppose, was the nativity that came from living under another’s thumb, ie., father and/or husband. How it relates to current times, is giving yourself permission to pursue art in the form of a career, instead of using it as just a hobby. I see you traveling ALL OVER Europe, not just staying within a particular region, but TRULY exploring the diversity in each culture through art. I think you can use the employment with your family’s business to your advantage. Gaining experience as a supervisor of staff and working in management, will demonstrate to your future employers, that you are a leader and self-sufficient in the workplace. However, don’t get too comfortable in this area, because you need to follow your true passion! Do something creative and artsy on the sidelines, to keep that energy flowing and build up the different kind of art you would like to create. In other words, don’t limit your creative juices to just one thing. Try pottery, painting, and explore other cultures. Have you ever thought of being an art history major? In terms of career, once you get back to Europe, I see you doing many things art- related. You will begin to build a support system of like-minded friends, who give you the diversity, creativity and open-mindedness you are seeking. Through these people, you will feel accepted and free. You might try different avenues of employment. Working for a museum, art gallery, fashion design, film, painting, photography and pottery (to name a few), you will not only meet the people you really connect with, but you will gain experience and knowledge that will eventually bring you to the career you desire. Don’t limit yourself in your ideals. You can work in any field. The point is to let yourself feel free.

Relationship: I don’t think you will ever have to go looking for your true love. I truly feel that finding your future mate will be merely coincidence more than being in the right place at the right time. In other words, I don’t get the sense that your lover will be in any particular region. I get the sense that he will be there when he is supposed to be. I see you two talking along a cobblestone road with a bridge…..? You could have run into each other just from frequenting the same spot, like “hey, don’t I see you here every Tuesday?” Remember that this will come when the time is right. Allowing yourself to explore, travel and be artistically free should ideally come before meeting your mate, because it will be at this time you feel comfortable “settling down.” Until you feel that you’ve done everything you need to do and feel completely at ease with who you are, it most likely won’t be the right time.

Children: I see you going either way on this one. I have a feeling you want to have kids, but at the same time, you could feel quite content with your life, especially after having found the ideal career and lover. You may feel content enough that you don’t feel the need to have a child. But I wonder if you wouldn’t regret it later in life. I get that sense, that as you get older, you may have regrets. I see one child in your life if you choose to have kids. I think having children would bring a lot of love and fulfillment to you, ie., fill the hole in your heart. You know the feeling when you have everything you want and need, but something is missing? You may feel this way as you get older (30’s+) and at that point decide to have a child. I think this could be very beneficial to you. Your soul will feel immense love and peace and you would love your child like nothing before. I see it opening up your heart chakra and there is a lot of growth there.

Location: I see you drawing or working on something architectural at a table in front of the kitchen that looks out to large floor-to ceiling windows in the living room area. I definitely see you in Europe and I have a strong feeling about the UK having significance in your life. Have you been there before? I also see you working from home and having the ability to come and go as you please. It’s a very comfortable living you and your husband have created for yourselves. Modest, but artistic and well decorated older building. I think he will be some sort of artist himself- a writer, actor, painter, potter….something along those lines. This is how you two will connect.
