Our family received an early Christmas bundle. My granddaughter Katja has blessed us with her arrival.
In the past year and half my mom died May 27/2010 & dad joined her on Oct 9/2010. Also, I greeted my 1st grandson Connor on Nov 25/20101 and now precious granddaughter Katja on Dec 15/2011.
I hope everyone has a safe holiday season no matter where you are in the world. Wishing you all the best in the New Year 2012. Let’s keep the faith and continue sending out healing energy to Mother Earth for all of us but especially for all the new children entering this Earthly realm.
Katja
Congratulations to the new addition to the family and may 2012 bring you all the happiness you all diserve.

Hi Tina,

Hi Seaqueen,
conratulations and condolences both.
I had some time spare over the holidays, started checking through the ‘Rainring’ entries in Google and ended up here. As there is quite a lot of outdated info and broken links, I thought I’d like to give you a brief update:
The site for exploring the cards still exists at http://www.rainringcards.com, but I inadvertently wiped out my wordpress blog some years ago – yes, it can be done! – so I took this as a sign, and have not gone back to it. So all links there are defunct. However, there is a considerable body of information, including the whole completed masetrclass series, at http://www.rainringcards.net. Also – the big news – I’ve managed to finish the directory of meanings of the cards, covering all the principal meanings. The entries for this directory are based on readings from the cards themselves, and are far more detailed than the original, often cryptic and inaccessible ones which I made available originally. This directory exists as a 3x double-sided A4 comb-bound laminate, which makes it very user-friendly and hard-wearing. Just a couple of examples to contrast old and new:
old: The Hero: the man of action; in touch with his own body and the physical world; fortitude, strength, tenacity
new:THE HERO: (+) strength, persistence, tenacity, fortitude, vitality, humour, practicality, enterprise, successful battles against the odds; groundedness,
physicality, good sense-perception, common sense, robust health; (-) obstinacy, narrow-mindedness, insensitivity, lack of imagination, obsessive tendency, boorishness.
old: Creation:conception + desire = creation; the latter is the product of fusion of the two former, also the balancer between them
new: CREATION: creative endeavour; breakthroughs in intuiting and understanding, solitary work, self-imposed discipline, dedication to a task,
self-confidence, feelings of worth; being set apart from ordinary people; admiration from others, being in thrall to your muse, therefore alternance of exhilaration and depression; struggle against impulses to socialise.
Finally, here’s a late Christmas present – Q what area does SQ need to work on this coming year? A: DOMINATION – new directory entry as follows: a place in the sun; predominance; getting your own way; being the centre of attention, as a leader, overstaying your welcome at the top; addiction to authority and power; feeling convinced of your superiority.
(this is one of the unbalanced cards; the balanced version of the same is this:
FLOW SELF: a preponderant position merited, timely and appropriate, reluctant acceptance of power and authority. When leading for the benefit of others and only as long as required, no blame attaches.
Oooops!
Happy New Year!
Dear Peter,
Happy New Year. What a pleasant surprise to receive a comment from you. I often wondered how you were doing. The last year and half was filled with such profound sorrow and great happiness that I probably am unbalanced, ha-ha. Thanks for the Christmas present reading. Too bad about your blog but those of us who read your articles remember your words. Wishing you a fantastic journey with the Rainring cards. Best regards to H.
