The Court
of Messengers:
Element of Air
The
Court of Messengers embodies the power of the Element of Air
in the Underworld. Air is mobile, changeable, inspirational. Its people
are Messengers, communicators, heralds. The Messengers embodied by the
cards may be human, angelic or of other orders of life such as the Elemental
Sylphs, beings primarily of air, faery contacts or other life-forms
from the Realms. Traditionally angels are the messengers between humanity
and divinity, and in the Dreampower cards angels are most frequently
found as the messengers of the surface and Stone Realm, as they extend
into the airy heavens which humanity identifies as being 'above'. In
the deeper Realms, we find many more people of the other Courts, though
there are no distinct boundaries, and each Court is present in each
Realm. Messengers are also found in the birds and animals, through the
augury of their sound and movement, and each Court has its spiritual
creatures that embody the specific powers of that Court and its primary
Element.
The Herald
of Messengers
Air
and Air
This
is the warrior or herald, who may be male or female or both. He/she
has a naked androgynous body, slim and light, with a thin face and a
corona of medium length hair of various faint rainbow colours. The herald
is naked, with a thin wrap that covers breasts and genitals, as the
gender is a mystery. This figure has no wings, but the wrap becomes
a great turbulence in the air around and behind the herald, as if the
power of flight is the wrap or veil itself.
This
image embodies all youthful air contacts (regardless of physical or
solar age) with the following qualities: changeable and unpredictable
behaviour; high intelligence; sharp accuracy in communication and perception;
minimal emotion, maximum intellect; impetus towards constant transformation
and ceaseless motion.
