Hi, Woody. I know you say you're not psychic, but I have many areas of my life in which I have questions. If you need a specific direction, I guess the biggest area of concern is my job right now. Can you draw a card for me and center your attention in that direction?

hello, been meaning to post earlier but needed to double check some of the information. I'm a bit tired of the 'anomaly' , so I'm moving on to an area that i'm still kind of researching on my own. Like I said it's not going to be about me, but about some people in a far away land that's very culturally different and different belief system (the intersection between culture and religion is sometimes a very fuzzy distinction) which is why I think this will be a bigger challenge.
This is about the burmese 'weizzar' more about the two famous ones in Burma who are Bo Bo Aung and Bo Min Gaung. In Burma they are widely known by everybody, but in the west nobody has a clue who they are unless they are academics researching the cultural history of Burma and there isn't a whole lot of information about them.
I want to share a couple of stories about the both of them so you get an idea of why I'm interested in this subject as well as give background info.

This is Bo Bo aung, he's a bit of a historical figure in the 1700's. There is a legend where in school he was a school mate of a future king of burma named Bodaw Paya, back then they were friends and made something of a friendship pact. Fast forward a couple of years, Bo Bo aung becomes a full fledge weizzar and is becoming well-known by people and Bodaw Paya is king. The king decides that Bo Bo aung is becoming a little too popular and decides to execute him despite being former friends. As Bo Bo aung is brought before the king he issues a challenge toward him before he is executed, he asks him to wipe out a symbol on the floor he draws called a 'wa' in burmese it is basically an 'O' and in weizzar tradition is a symbolic rune. The king tries to wipe it out, but then finds out there are two more , and as he tries to wipe those other ones out, they keep growing until the whole floor is covered in symbols. At last the king gives up, and Bo Bo aung tells him directly " If you could not erase the symbol I drew, what hope do you have of killing me?"
At that point of course the king feels powerless and extremely sorry for himself, while his former friend who I bet wasn't thrilled at having been the object of an execution basically gives something of a lecture and leaves.
This is Bo min gaung, who is actually I think the most famous weizzar and the most recent one as he lived in the 20th century and during ww2.

There a couple of interesting stories about him. When he lived during the British Occupation of Burma he was well known by people, the British administration probably decided he is a threat and 'tried' to put him in Jail. As they put him in, they find him wandering outside, they put him in again, and then they find him outside again, then they put him in again... and well you get the idea and no they weren't successful. Another interesting story is during WW2 when bombs were going off, and gunfire was going off and everyone was ducking for cover he just walked around normally like as if there was nothing, the Japanese soldiers were so impressed that they donated food to him. There are alot of other stories but I think this should suffice, but I'll leave a personal account of one person who met him.
www.ayezay.com...
In summation BoBo Aung is supposedly a master of runes/alchemy. Where as Bo min Gaung more recent, was known as something of a madcap (crazy guy), supposedly they say he did this on purpose to avoid drawing too much attention to the overt use of his powers. They both belong to the same mystical lineage.
So my request for a reading is about one or both of these individuals and whether or not these so called legends actually happened? The choice is up to you to focus on which person or story to which you can get a good bead on or be able to tune into. I'd be curious to what you'd come up with as they are reported not to be 'ordinary' but who knows maybe they are? I delayed writing this because of the length but atleast the anecdotes here may prove to be enertaining, thanks for reading.

I am in awe right now.
From your reading: "This could be the cathartic event in your life that brings spiritual renewal ... any lonliness or confusion that you might feel will pass as this phase reaches it's natural conclusion and you must allow yourself be guided by trust and know that you will pass through any fear to emerge stronger ... this will be a time of deep revelation of feminine mysteries and psychic awakening ... this will be your rebirth ... the still point of your potential ... the primal source of intuition an initiation ... your inner transformation."
Woodwytch,
Last year was a year of struggles, heartbreak, disappointments and confusion. I was diagnosed with breast cancer, had a complete mastectomy, lost my job and almost went bankrupt, financially and emotionally. (at the age of 39)
In the last 2 months so much has changed. It's as if a veil has lifted and I am starting to see things clearly for the first time. I have a new job (my dream job). I have a renewed appreciation for life. I have a new appreciation for beauty that must be sought after. What I mean by that is I can now find beauty in most anything. The pile of laundry in my basement that used to cause me to have nightmares, now reminds me how fortunate we are to have clothing. The sink full of dishes that I used to dread, reminds me that we are so fortunate to have food. I am no longer afraid, I am strong.
Thank you so much for taking the time to pull a card for me. I am still in awe

It's fine, I'm not embarrassed, and I WAS focusing directly on my business when I asked for a card, ne'er mind I always expect my clients to be brutally honest and although I too stand by my cards, you simply can't be 100% accurate for everybody, if we did we would have the mind of God. I often use clairvoyance and empathic links with my readings and you always get at least some you cannot read for.
Thanks for the try though

Thank you Woodwytch.
Your card has put things in perspective for me.
The keyword i presented was "insight", so no "psychics" required
Your help proved to be invaluable to me.
You take time out of your own to help a complete stranger,
without any expectation of payment.
The world cannot have enough people like that.
You have my humble thanks.

Thanks woody, and aye, it was a bit tough, I knew what the sacrifice would be when you pulled the card last time. I simply put it off for awhile. But because of that event, my mind has become... quiet. I am learning things faster due to new found focus, including reading into the occult.
The event lead me to new discoveries along with information that was not previously available to me prior. In a way I sense the end of my journey near, especially after fasting and detoxing my body from unwanted chemicals. I feel so much better now, it seems my diet was a major factor on how I was feeling.
Other than that, I have been seeing orbs of light more profound than before. And I do feel like I am finally about to dicover something i've been searching for a long time. So in a way, its a breathe of relief.
Thanks again

I'm amazed. You described my current circumstances perfectly.
Ok, this card would indicate that there has been some kind of emotional hibernation ... it feels like you were not getting anywhere with a situation so you 'shut-down' ... there is something that you feel very strongly about and maybe the other party can't quite see it from your point of view so there may have been quarrels (someone may have been acting like the proverbial 'bear with a sore head') ... there has certainly been feelings of restlessness and frustration on your part ... you need to know that this is not an ideal time to make important decisions ... some of what has been going on may feel like it has rocked your foundations a little and before you move forward there is work to be done to strengthen these foundations ... once this is done they will be stronger than ever ... it is important to restore harmony and greater communication ... a project that involves creation / creativity may have been impeded as a result of you not being in tune ... more work is needed and the first thing you need to do is prepare the ground for inspiration and manifestation.
I'm so uninspired by my job right now. I'm a teacher, and this is my tenth year of teaching. Last year was absolutely dreadful; a new principal (who's a bit touchy), teaching in the same school where my son started his kindergarten year and had tremendous problems. Right now we're gearing up for school to start again, next week...normally at this point I'm eagerly decorating my classroom and researching lesson plans...but not this year. I do NOT want to go back to work, but staying home is not an option.
You may feel like you need a miracle to get thing as they should be ... and if you take things calmly a miracle is within your grasp ... in a relationship situation this card indicates results of a well-grounded / secure / peaceful and enduring future ... in a work situation there could be a job offer / promotion / or salary increase ... this card also indicates that any contracts or career changes would argur well at this time.
I do feel like I need a miracle...I'm in a slump and looking for a way to pull myself out of it. As for career change, I've been turning that over in my mind for some time now but not feeling confident I can pull it off. I want to become a full time writer, I know I have the ability to be great, but the writing market is so fickle it would be irresponsible to quit my job and write full time, especially since I'm unpublished. Plus I'm not sure if I could stick with it, personal discipline and everything.
Thank you very much for your reading, it gives me hope that things will improve. Much appreciated!
