Teach the Teacher Day

It was teach the teacher day at Pilates. So all of the students would be there for a social gathering.  When I arrived, it was an outdoor garden party type of thing. It was in the countryside somewhere, but there was a bigger building that was kind of like an old hotel dining area.  When I got outside there were lots of other students there already. I thought how neat it was that I would instantly find more Pilates people all in one spot. 

When I went outside there were lots of people helping get things ready. Setting large tables with plates/bowl/utensils, water etc. I thought how weird it was they were all there helping already! I felt a little sad, thinking that Hannah asked them all but didn’t ask me to help. I thought maybe they were also all her close friends, when I thought I was the closest! My pride was a bit hurt but I started helping. I was paired with this guy, around my age, a little odd but nice enough. 

A bit later, I met a girl who was super nice and we became friends. I liked her a lot and was happy to hang out.  There were a bunch of people on the side hill, kind of like bleacher seating. She pointed up and said “Oh! There’s my boyfriend!”. I looked up and it was the guy I had been partnered with! I was so surprised! I thought what a nice couple. 

He came down, got down on one knee and pulled a ring out. He was proposing to her! I had my phone and I was like “Don’t worry! I got this!” Thinking if anyone could get phone pics, it would be me.  Well I couldn’t get the right thing to hit. I was hitting stop and record and was missing the whole thing! Without even getting pictures.  Eventually it was over and I was walking back to my car which was parked a bit further away on a dirt driveway, carrying my stuff. Feeling a bit sad and let down.

Next I was taking Tarot/Oracle card client. I had my first client Courtney, she was laying in my bed and I was going to try to hypnotize her.  But before I could even start, she was already snoring!! (I think Chris may have been snoring in real life at this point). Anyway I decided I couldn’t do it this way because I didn’t want her to be asleep for the reading, so set up a desk and chair. I was in an old classroom from school, and there were other people in desks around.  It changed now from Courtney to my friend’s mom Nancy. I was trying to separate our desk from the others and felt like it was probably private so shouldn’t be that close.  Another lady came over and picked up the cards, I didn’t want her to touch them tho. As soon as she left I lit sweet grass to cleanse the cards and the space. 

I started laying out cards, and I had three different packs. I was layering cards on top of each other, and soon I had lots of cards out.  I was kind of making a mess of it all! 

The first card I was looking at, had a message written in script. It was some cliche saying about a mother. But I couldn’t even read it. Stumbling over the words, Nancy had to help me read it and I was so embarrassed! 

I don’t know if I ever got anything out of it, but I do remember the message for her. She felt shame about the split from/letting down her first husband. That she didn’t work hard enough to make it work. There was a strong MOTHER theme going on as well.
