Reverse Speech Metaphor

A high proportion of Reverse Speech language is metaphoric in nature. That is, it will speak in metaphor, using words such as wolf, goddess, eagle, whirlwind etc. It is believed that these words come from the deep unconscious mind and describe unconscious structures that form and influence human behaviour. Here are some examples of metaphors.

 

Here is an example from session work. The reversal is on David Oates as he recognises a client's problem. It says - See the wolf fallen in the lake - Wolf in Reverse Speech generally refers to motivation, Lake refers to emotions, thus this client is perceived to be drowning in emotions which hinders his ability to motivate himself - Download mp3 file

In this example an official is surveying the scene of a plane crash in New York only a few weeks after the 911 attacks. The reversal says - Brave eagle, we're sad - In this case Eagle is a metaphor for the United States - Download mp3 file

Donald Trump talks about his desire to be married again. the reversal says - Sound of Adam was a wish - Or, he desired to experience the nurturing male within - Download mp3 file

Here President Bush talks about peace in the middle east. The reversal says - Shoot the law, Grey Shepherd - its meaning is obscure - Download mp3 file

A woman talks about a strong male figure in her life. The reversal says - Fed the great Caesar - In the case Caesar is a metaphor representing strong male power - Download mp3 file

Here a man talks about his desire for everyone to be happy. The reversal says - No better gift than this dollar - In reverse speech money and cash is often used as a metaphor for emotions or emotional exchanges - Download mp3 file

Here, a woman talks about guides and spirits. The reversal says - Garden of evil - Garden means to create and this reversal is warning her of evil her "guides" might create - Download mp3 file

In this example, a Reverse Speech student talks about ways to promote Reverse Speech further. His reversal says - Ships serve you when you make this wharf - Or, build it and they will come - Download mp3 file

David Oates talks to a client in session work. The reversal says - The lawless have wrath on the soul - Download mp3 file

Here a woman talks about plans for her business. She says she wants to make "at least $50 a month," however she had a slip of the tongue. She meant to say "$500 a month." Could the state of her wolf have anything to do with this Freudian slip? - My wolf in the slums - Download mp3 file

A young man talks about his life. The reversal says - My wolf handed me wisdom - Download mp3 file

A business man following session work discussing his new plans. Note his positive upbeat tone. The reversal shows the session work has worked - I've got a new wolf within me - Download mp3 file

A woman talks about her hope for a future medical treatment. The reversal says - Let the goddess feel. Grant us a sign . Goddess in Reverse Speech generally refers to hope for the future or dreams and aspirations. Note what she says forwards immediately after this reversal - Download mp3 file

A confrontation with Self. A woman looking for her purpose in life cannot get beyond past conflicts and legal issues. Her reversals are an internal message from her deep self to her conscious self. "Look within / I have a terrible Goddess / What happened to your soul." - Note the different tonalities and pronouns as different parts of Self talk - Download mp3 file

A business man seeks advice from his reversals about a new business venture with several partners. The reversal says - Hear the nexus sing - nexus is a bond or tie, sing is nice energy, thus the reversal says the business will go well - Download mp3 file

In this example from session work, a client discusses ways to improve his business. The reversal says - See the whirlwind to shift this devil out - This is an instruction from unconscious to access his internal energies to overcome negative emotions that hinder him - Download mp3 file

Here is another reversal that gives a rather dramatic instruction for change. A woman talks about her partner who is constantly undermining her. The reversal says - My Rocelin. Off with her head - Rocelin is a destructive metaphor that comes from the Legends of Camelot where Merlin was imprisoned in the forest of Rocelin where he was robbed of his magic by a witch from the underworld. The reversal call for this part to be severed from her life - Download mp3 file

This example shows a client talking about depression. His reversal gives him an excellent solution - And God lives, he's the wisdom shepherd - Download mp3 file

A woman talks about our potential as humans. The reversal says - We cast satan out of heaven - Download mp3 file

Here is a section from Henry Kissinger talking about the problems in Israel. He is talking about the many ways the late Prime Minister Rabin tried to bring about peace. The speech reversal says: "There's milk in heaven. Moses lost with thy noise."  Reverse Speech refers to Heaven as the deepest and most sacred part of the mind. Milk is healing energy, or food for the life force. Moses is the part of the mind that hears from Heaven, or our connection with our intuition. Noise is simply that - conscious chatter that is meaningless. To call it Thy noise, means that one considers this chatter to be Divine, or to give deity to conscious rubbish. Thus the entire reversal translates to: "Stop all the fuss and arguing and listen to the small still voice of your unconscious, because it contains all your answers." - Download mp3 file
