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 King of Messengers

Air and Fire

In the image we see a winged figure with a radiant crown and long flowing mane of silver hair. He has a lean strong male body naked to the waist but a feathered serpent tail. The King of Messengers has a stern intelligent face, of mature years but not aged, with piercing blue eyes. He holds his hands out, upturned, as if offering something invisible. His Realm colours are silver and blue, with feathers of red and yellow tints, showing the fire within his aery nature.

This image embodies all major 'masculine' air contacts with the following qualities and powers: timeless maturity (with no aging); purpose; strict justice; swiftness and certainty; extreme clarity; potent, inevitable inspiration. The power of this type of being can be devastating or enabling; often the inspiration and justice seem difficult for us to accept from a surface viewpoint.
