St. Michael and St. Joan of Arc discuss those incorrigible English!
___
JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. St. Joan claimed to have visions from heaven which featured three saints, one of whom was St. Michael.  In this cartoon, she gets to hang out with him all the time 'cause they're in heaven together. 2. There are many revisions of St. Joan's story in media, but for this cartoon, St. Michael is referencing a specific play that's running in London this month.  To appeal to modern audiences, the play portrays Joan as "genderqueer" and vaguely spiritual, rather than the obsessively Catholic girl we know from historical testimonies.  Such reinterpretations of Joan are nothing new, however.  In fact, the first recorded reinterpretation accusing Joan of being an antireligious antiwoman was in 1431, and that show was ALSO put on by the English.  History really does rhyme. 3. At the end of her trial, the English-aligned Catholics excommunicated Joan, abandoning her to secular authorities they knew would burn her on the spot.  However, that didn't stop the French from ultimately defeating the English thanks in part to her inspiration. 4. St. Michael lightheartedly refers to the play as a "theater of war".  "Theater" in this sense can either mean "a place where plays are performed" or "an area of activity in a war", so it's a pun.  He's saying that the English are using the play in a figurative war against Joan's legacy.

DECKS USED ♡ the original rider waite, the forest of enchantment tarot, the archangel oracle, the lunar oracle
IMPORTANT NUMBERS: 6 · 1010 · 1717 · 5 · 11 · 1111
Tumblr media
PILE ONE: ST MICHAEL, CARLO CRIVELLI
channeled songs: lust for life by lana del rey ft the weeknd (“cause we're the masters of our own fate / we're the captains of our own souls” · “and a lust for life, and a lust for life / keeps us alive, keeps us alive”) · all i need by xiamara jennings · take her to the moon by waterparks (“mirror, mirror on the wall / show me everything I want-ant-ant-a-a-ant / because I want it all” · “but can you really get lost in heaven?”)
cards pulled: seven of cups, the hermit, three of wands, two of spells, ten of spells ; lady gaia: your challenges are lessons. you are loved and welcome on earth, archangel chamuel: open your heart to give and receive love. your essence is love, archangel bhokpi: it is time to fly. listen to your intuition, archangel haniel: seek soul satisfaction. fan a flame of inner happiness; waning moon: let go of that which is causing you inner turmoil. now is a time for casting away emotions that are no longer serving you.
hey there pile one ♡ i see that you are currently being faced with a decision that you must make, or a decision over which you are spending a lot of time seriously contemplating.
with the hermit, your initial response may be to simply hide away from making this decision; putting it off until the decision is made for you and you can move on from it as if that is really your choice. however, what archangel michael asks of you is to not do this. to not shy away from truly sitting with this decision and looking at the pros and cons, the advantages and disadvantages, of not only the options themselves, but how they will affect you in the long run.
lana del rey and the weeknd sing about a lust for life, and that is something archangel michael wants to bring to your attention as well. in the two of spells again, we have this decision, and with the ten of spells we have regret. a lot of regret... are you spending so much time hiding away from making this decision because of fear, concern, anxiety? because how could you do what you want, what your heart yearns for, instead of what is expected of you?
i see that for many of you, this is a want to travel. if it is not, the messages from archangel michael are the same. you have a life to live. if you are able to do the things that you want to, and the only thing stopping you is fear or anxiety, then are you giving yourself the life that you deserve? you need to release fear and this restrictive mindset, before you look back in a few years or even just a few months and wish you had done what you had wanted to do.
you are supported by the universe in this, by archangel michael, and you need to realise for yourself that nobody can live your life for you. it is a painful reminder, but a true one, that death is around the corner for all of us at all times. do you want it to come to you and find that you are filled with pain over how half-lived and small you kept your life. over how you never allowed yourself to do everything that you wanted to do. yes, you have very real obligations, but you also have a duty to yourself and your heart, and if you can give this life to yourself but refuse to, then are you actually living?
Tumblr media
PILE TWO: SAINT MICHAEL ARCHANGEL DEFEATING THE DEVIL, JACOB CORNELISZ
channelled songs: snowchild by the weeknd (“i used to pray when i was sixteen / if I didn't make it then i'd probably make my wrist bleed”) · beetlejuice by mariah the scientist (“when you lie to my face / and then you'll say that, “even jesus forgave””) · cough it out by the front bottoms (“i don't care if you're not sorry, i forgive you / and with or without your support, i will continue / what i'm trying to say is you never know what you've been through / 'til you pause and cough it out / i cough it out, i cough it out, i cough it out / i cough it out”)
cards pulled: eight of pentacles (rx), the high priestess (rx), the wheel of fortune (rx), five of challenges, weaver of spells (rx), the white hare ; seraphim seraphina: be an ambassador for earth. build your bridge to source, archangel preminilek: be conscientious. co-operate with others for the highest good, archangel michael: stand in your power. be true to yourself; waxing moon: now is a good time to focus on achieving your own personal goals (rx), moon totem – frog: the path has been cleared for you to make a change that previously seemed unachievable (rx), the forget fool: let it go (rx)
hey there pile two ♡ this message may come out a bit all over the place, because there is a lot i am receiving and i am not entirely sure how to make sense of it all in writing...
first of all, i’m seeing that the general energy for this pile is one of being stuck in cycles of “bad luck”. you try to do something to get out of it, and it ends fruitlessly.
there is an oppressive energy surrounding this pile. with secrets being kept from many of you in order to control you and the action you take; in some cases, this is a third party in a relationship that your partner is hiding from you, for others a parent or parent figure or other family member is keeping something from you so that you do not finally cut ties with them. the people in your life are jealous of you and how much you can accomplish if you were untethered from them. you have the abilities and talent that they wish they had. so rather than uplift you or love for you it, they are doing everything they can behind the scenes to keep you controlled under their thumb. they do not want you to realise your own abilities, talent or potential.
and even if you were to realise the truth of this relationship—that is, to realise something that finally pushes you to your breaking point and to once and all commit to leaving—you may be so tied to this relationship, financially or socially, that you’ll come to feel that it is impossible to ever escape. that might be true to an extent, but not in its entirety. of course, you must be cautious when dealing with oppressive or abusive figures in your life, and confronting them is only going to do more harm to you than good. however, there are people in your life who are open and willing to support you until you are ready to leave, and thereafter to help you actually get away. do not worry that you will be overburdening them.
i think, out of all the groups, you should know that archangel michael is most with you. he sees your plight. his card came out right next to the five of challenges, which depicts an ogre who is basically on a killing path. this is significant for the role as protector that archangel michael assumes. know that you can turn to him at any time. and that you should, even in small ways that make you feel comfortable.
archangel michael wants you to know that your situation is not as hopeless as it feels. and we all know it feels hopeless. but you are not alone in this, not in the physical world and definitely not in the spiritual one.
i was about to close off your reading, when i spotted the white hart at the bottom of the deck. this card is the forest of enchantment's equivalent of the fool. so please know that a new life and new adventure awaits for you. hold onto that and the love that does surround you, from people and from the divine.

PILE THREE: ARCHANGEL MICHAEL DEFEATS SATAN, GUIDO RENI
channelled songs: knock on by nct 127 (“no one knows i get drunk on my own over these fantasies”) · time machine by willow (“i don't give a fuck, i'm doing me / time machine, time machine”) · flabbergasted by bbymutha (“you don't wanna see me power up, i'm dangerous / they say i do too fuckin' much and i don't give a fuck”)
cards pulled: the chariot, king of cups (rx), eight of pentacles, two of wands, two of boons (rx), the enchanter’s wheel (rx), the oldest one; archangel joules: align with the highest. go with the flow, guardian angel: love yourself unconditionally. ask for help, lord wywyvsil: accept and send healing. you are a being of the universe, archangel azriel: it is time to let go. prepare for change, moon in gemini: stress may be an issue during this time, moon in taurus: now is the time for focusing on finances and practical matters
hey there pile three ♡ your message from archangel michael is focused on your career aspirations and following your dreams. what we see here is a need to move on from this immaturity and from being cruel to yourself because you may not be where you wish you were, or where you see your peers are. you have a passion you wish you could utilise, or a dream you wish you could see actualised. you may be wishing that you could time travel into the past and make different decisions, or time travel into the future to see your life unfold in its success without having to go through the difficulties of life.
however, the message from archangel michael is simple: this is not possible.
you have to take the risk to achieve what you wish to achieve, and you have to be prepared for the struggle that is going to come with it. it is not going to be an easy journey, but, if you are prepared, and you know that this is what you want, it will be worth it. no effort is ever wasted, and your effort is divinely seen and supported. you need to trust yourself, show up and stand up for yourself, and be kinder to yourself in this journey. by showing up and standing up for yourself, i mean that it is important to assert yourself in this life that you want to live, in this path towards your dream: look for teachers, be outspoken about what you bring to the table, and do not shy away from reaching out for opportunities because opportunity is not just going to fall in your lap.
if you are willing to take the chance, if you are actually willing to bet on yourself, you will find that in time you will succeed. let go of any limiting beliefs that tell you that you cannot do so, that you cannot flourish if you put in the work. you are divinely guided in this.
