A Collection....
Revelations release Source,
from persistant pursuit of the Light.
Deny advice from those in dark,
to do so would place you in darkness as well.
If value you seek, look within for the Kingdom of Heaven.
To turn your back on the past, step with power, forward.
Listen for Truth by cultivating spiritual wholeness.
If you loose interest, it is a sign you are not ready.

I Desire
Harnessing the focus establishing reality
Through the consciousness of identity,
The balance of surety in desire
Moving into the deepest feelings
Continually reinterprets the inconclusive
Into the expression of the unique vision
At every opportunity to find its harmonic,
Where it consolidates into a conclusive harmonic domain
The resolution in balance
And the dynamic effect of its design.
As the identity develops
Through an imagined intent,
The intuitional judgment of reality
In the flow toward the deeper potentials
Follows the path of catalytic revelations
With the endurance of a shared memory
And a need for The Greatest Equilibrium
In the integration of complexities
Into the sympathetic rapport with intelligent infinity
Focusing the dynamic conscience.
Sustaining the experience of visualization
Through the conscious concentration of intent
Shapes the vibration’s harmonic domain
Through the movement from one moment to the next
With the advancement of revelation
Stabilized by the trusted relativity
To a need for The Greatest Equilibrium
That uses the incomplete balance
To identify the commitment to equanimity
Moving forward into realization.
Finding a place in the world
For the projection of the creative visualization,
The purveyor of the desired balance
Places the call for its fulfillment
Within the exposure to its acceptance
By the memory of the domain of harmony
To allow the focus on its resolution
By the active and reactive thought processes
A center for the beautiful solution
Unfolding into cognizance.
From a place within the multiplicity,
Through the creativity of visualization,
The synchronization of the concord
Of disentangled potentials
Along the expanding paradigm
Uses the pleasurable appreciation
Of the co-created harmonies
To focus the ideas into conclusive truths
That fully awaken their fruition
Into The Greatest Equilibrium conscience-ness.
The ability to attune to an emotional realm
That is a conduit for actualization
Uses the art of visualizing an alignment with success
And the desire to know its potentials
To launch the moment of truth,
Where the materialization of desire
Reaches a co-existence in synchronicity
With the knowledge of the desire
And the realization of fulfillment
In the judgment of its relative balance.
The mind in tune with existence
Uses the imagination artistically
To create from a memorable harmonic domain
The search for an emotional contentedness
To potentiate the generative influence
Of the Source of all resources,
Through the co-creation with the harmonies
Of a conclusive resolution
Of sympathetic rapport
Finding the truth of its equilibrium.
Through the defining of a desired feeling
And a focus on its anticipated actualization,
The familiarity with its pattern of existence
Feels a process for coagulating its maturation
And casting aside any conceptual inadequacy
Through the memory of its harmonic source
Synchronizing co-existence into the desire’s balance,
Where the contending of conclusive truth
Becomes a portal for communion
With the balance of conception and belief.
Placing desire into purpose
With the concentration of inner attunement
To the feeling of abundance
Draws from the values seeking fulfillment
The quantum adjustment
Moving the tradition of materialization
Through the adaptation to the relative harmonics
And into the mandala of its combined possibilities
As a sanctuary for the experience desired
To be focused, potentiated and experienced.
For it is the intuitionally centered ability
To understand the link between
The sense of the dream realized
And the intuitional ambition
To move beyond its evaluation,
Taking the wisdom and happiness
Beyond the initial balance,
That brings together the conclusion
Reconciling the actualization
With the mastery of its unfolding lessons.

Maturing the Sense of Eternity
From the established harmonic domain,
A context of preconception
Defining the benefits of a harmonious relationship
Spreads the elegance of the harmony’s balance
With patient love
And lofty ambitions
Toward the new ways of relating
And their new kinds of harmony,
Resulting in the intuitively shared dream
Of the fabricated expansion of the harmonic domain.
The comprehension of harmony and beauty
Producing a context of preconception
By an emotional alignment with Source
Uses this insight to totality
With compassion and respect
To manage a flow of intuitional ambition
Reaching through the emotional experience
Into a new frequency of awareness
To discover the heart-felt realm
Of feeling desire’s eventuality.
With the focus of personal energy
On static circumstances on the verge of change,
The will of love,
Moving from a position of rigid balance,
Allows the compassionate sensitivity
Able to take on the Mystery’s point of view
To develop a flow of falling in love
As a natural force of originality
Bearing the fruit of the passionate dream
And the transmutation of personal consciousness.
The accomplishment of the progress
Toward the identification of this Mystery
Is in the feeling for love’s fruition
Of the whole that is beyond its parts summary,
Where the expanding abundance of love
Finds all of the calls for fulfillment
And their openings of potential
Available to the flow of the vital idea
Projecting the patterned fluidity
Of artistry casting rapport.
Accessing a vision of deep potential
Through the acceptance and reliance on the higher self
Allows the feeling for the moment
Harvesting the early fruit
To inspire a process of strengthening trust
And the flow into the deeper potentials
Heightening the empathic communication
Of the internal access of memory
And the poise of the dreamed perfection
Balanced in harmonious rapport.
Through a balance of action and receptivity,
The obstacles to justice, peace and harmony
Are taken as an opening to opportunity,
Where the spiritual practice of harmonization
Nurturing any aspect of the creative process
Finds the pathways around blockages
Illuminated by the emotional experiences
Of inventing the enriched consciousness
Of empathic daring and compassionate action
Lovingly aimed at consonance.
Trusting and flowing with the divinity of Cosmic intent
To resolve any inner interference,
The liberality of the heart-felt judgment
Allowing talents to flow
Toward the evolving improvement of the All
Steers toward the greater equilibrium
As a caring benefactor of potential
Offering the power of imagination
A province of emotional depth
Able to bring forth fruition.
By establishing trust in the intuitional flow,
The challenge of intellect calling for frequent reviews
Diminishes through the allowance of love
As the Source of the balanced dynamics
Connecting spirit to responsible action
In the submission into the greatest equilibrium
Through the flow of creative concern
Continually inventing the better way
To complete the journey to the heart’s home
And Source of the co-created masterpiece.
The maturation of the sense of eternity
From encounters with self-made limits
Brings the integration of the past, present and future
Into the psychic equilibrium
Of a collective consciousness,
Freed from the insufficient experience
To flow as a potential for emotional manifestation
Through the fullness of aspiration
Penetrating All That Is
With its alchemical satisfaction.
The light of Spring expanding
The limits of a personal philosophy
Held by a satisfaction for an initial completion
And the control of fate
Offers the view of a flow of abundance
As a call beckoning the quest
For new depths of affinity,
And the flow of increasingly positive reinterpretation
Able to accomplish the more compassionate awareness
Accommodating philosophical expansion.

Using Tarot to Treat Migraines: A Case Study
May 2, 2013 · by kaycers · Bookmark the permalink. · Edit
A friend of mine, let’s call her B, came to me recently for a Tarot reading. She had been having severe migraines for the past few years. They had gotten so bad recently that she had to start taking prescription medication to bear through them. We decided to use the cards to investigate potential root sources of these migraines. I chose a simple five card spread with an additional “shadow card” that revealed latent forces that could “make or break” the situation at hand. I will now discuss each card and its position and how it helped B reflect on how to meaningfully treat her migraines.
The first card revealed B’s current state. How she was feeling about her situation. The Hermit, a part of the major arcana, intimated that she was feeling alone and perhaps isolated by these episodes. The migraines were so painful that she had to shy away from people to treat herself. The Hermit also carried another message. His presence seemed to suggest that her seclusion was somehow self-imposed. Hermits are hermits because they choose to retreat from society. Perhaps B did not intentionally afford herself enough alone time to reflect on her life path and so her body manifested a physical ailment that would force her to spend some time alone. Unfortunately, in manifesting it this way she was unable to really utilize that alone time, instead she was distracted by the pain and thus looked to medication to help assuage the pain.
The second card indicated the root of B’s problem, the foundation of the issue at hand. The Three of Cups reversed highlighted a pattern in B’s childhood. From a very early age B understood that her household was not conducive to expressing her views. She spent years without the ability to express herself, effectively bottling up her own creative potential. This bottling would later continue, effecting her relationships and her perceived possibilities. In effect, this is where her “constriction” began.
Card three, the past influences on the matter at hand, was the King of Swords reversed. Here we see immaturity and/or lack of preparation. When she was in her early twenties B started to develop some of her latent psychic abilities. Through Tarot and Candle Magick rituals she felt herself becoming more intuitively and psychically aware. Her dreams became prophetic. Then, she had a dream that effectively predicted the attacks on 9/11. She was so shaken by this experience that she immediately stopped actively developing her psychic abilities and also intentionally shut out her dreams and ignored her intuitive awareness. The results of this psychic trauma caused her body to constrict, much like she experienced as a child. In effect, fear of the unkown and fear of not being accepted for her abilities left her closed off from her higher awareness, or sixth sense. This constriction occurred because she was not emotionally or psychically mature enough to handle the gravity of her expanding consciousness. To put it simply, she was not prepared to be “psychically aware”.
The fourth card explored her speculations influencing the matter. A reversed Queen of Pentacles would indicate a disconnect from nature, or Mother Earth. B would benefit greatly from the healing powers in nature and her own innate ability to heal herself through Reiki, meditation, and yoga (all of which she had previously practiced at one point or another). At the moment, however, B is ignoring her inner voice telling her to do these things and instead listens to society, which tells her to visit a physician who then prescribes medication for these types of “physical ailments”.
The fifth card is the probable outcome. The reversed Six of Cups hinted at the possibility of history repeating itself. Her childhood lessons in holding back her emotions, coupled with experience shown by card 3, may make it difficult for her to face the real causes of her migraines head on. To admit that she needs to once again open up the pathways that had previously frightened her may be too difficult for her to deal with at this time. It would seem likely that she may continue to repress her innate abilities and dreams and thus continue to have the headaches. This would seem to be a sad outcome if not for the shadow card I previously mentioned. Here we see latent forces at work, and when I saw the Eight of Pentacles I was eager to share the positive news with B. She did have some hope of breaking the cycle. The message was simple, do what you love and do what you’re good at. If you do these two things you will find fulfillment and meaning in what you are doing, and will develop any senses you require to be more successful at those activities.
We have now been discussing all the possible ways to treat her migraines holistically. Understanding the root of the problem and all the many factors (past, present and future) influencing the situation has helped her to explore new ways of approaching this problem. A renewed self-confidence and enthusiasm for life is observable in my friend’s behavior. I hope she will continue to share her growth and understanding with me as she progresses further.

Expanding The Vibrational Domain
Situated in the fully felt moment
Experiencing the brink of change,
A need to balance the inner scales
With an imagination’s creative concern
Arises from the memory of the experience
Of the inspired move into balance
To reach beyond the moment’s balance
With a flow toward the greater equilibrium
As a decided resolution
Of visionary equilibrium alignment.
To create the stability of a caused order
Out of the longing for harmony and success,
A reach from a situated synergy
Of the boundless nurturance
Into the moment’s best offering
With the motive of appreciation
Will reveal the fully felt intention
Projecting its emotional structure into maturity
As the consummate consequence realization
And doorway to the greater understanding.
The communal association
Around the engaged testing of ideas
Finds the cooperative compromise co-created
From the harmonious synthesis
Forming a synergetic fruition
That focuses the collective wisdom
Into the volition’s completion,
And the sensitive searching
Of the life beyond eventuality
In the expanding possibilities.
The balance of the communal values
Honing perceptions and awareness
With an attitude receptive of the panorama
Sustained by an ideal equilibrium
Transforms each act into the spiritual reach
Of the ideal will of the collective,
And is able to carry the burdens of the whole
Through the reflective overstanding
Into the fully awakened perception
That begins to move beyond the collective.
The shared insight fostering attainment
Through the engagement with the co-created experience
By the integrated diversity
Of creative ideas and motives
Begins this grasped opportunity
From a confluence of harmonic involvement
Moving to a new level of unified originality
In the endeavor to tune to the loftiest thought
And definitive overstanding
In the journey toward the most Cosmic consciousness.
The evidence of trust
In the ability to compromise with integrity
Comes from the commitment to synergetic harmony
With the abundance in all things,
And the recognition of the expanding balance,
Where the viability of balance through change,
Taken as an intentional responsibility
To feel the changing values in the moment’s movement,
Allows the consciousness of truth
To progress toward the Cosmic conscience-ness.
When trust has endured
Through the challenge of the moving context,
The deeper sense of communal empathy
Enhanced by the expanding arena shared
Finds a pathway of probable opportunity
Out of identified options taken
That furthers the reach of trust and responsibility
Into the unknown experience
Whose mystery completes the consciousness
Of the transcendental viewpoint.
A consciousness of enduring equitability
In the modification of self-expression
Moves from this empathic sense of relationship
Toward the creative potential
Of the most probable harmony
That the wisdom and understanding,
Resolving the most responsible intention
On this pathway of intuitional maturation,
Uses to convey the explications
Of the latest unique viewpoint.
True wisdom and perfect happiness,
Testing creativity through open exchange and honesty,
Flows from the harmonious balance
Through the spread of the inner concord
As seeds of anticipated blessings
Bringing forth the potential
Of the rise to the new level of volition,
Beyond any lack of clarity in thought and emotions,
Into the integrated satisfaction of divine unconsciousness
Journeying through metamorphosis.
When the moment’s perfection is realized
Through ambition’s step into a new view,
And a pursuit of the moment’s beauty
Tunes to the radiant spirit’s vibrational domain
And its primal balance
To grasp the confluence of love and harmony,
Whose potent force of overflowing volition
Projects this searching sensitivity
Of the reach of consciousness,
The transcendental viewpoint becomes the wave.

Using the tarot as a diagnostic tool for healing is a very effective way to analyze the five planes of existence. We create a spread of cards that has five planes of three cards each. To begin this reading, start in the middle of the reading area and place three cards face down diagonally left to right so that the bottom right corner touches the upper right corner of the card below it. Then we move to the lower right of this center spread and place one card face down. We move to the upper right just beyond the center spread and place one card face down. Repeat this in the upper left area and the lower left area and then continue placing one card into each plane until all four areas have three cards each.
We turn the center area over first. This will represent the activity of the heart in the person. All Tarot decks have some form of ‘Pentacles’ which represents the element ‘Earth’. All decks have Swords or some facility representing ‘Air’. All decks have Wands or some facility reflecting the element ‘Fire’. All decks have some form of ‘Cups’ reflecting the element ‘Water’. All healing intuitive diagnosis is a combination of either Earth, which normally indicates a physical anomaly or existing manifested illness; Swords, which reflects a supporting mental disposition aiding the illness; Wands, which indicates the epletion of energy or compromising energetic position due to the illness; and Cups, the fluid environment being affected.
The diagnosis will often indicate a pre-cursor condition leading towards a potential illness. In this reading, we learn how to evaluate the hormonal balance, the endocrine system, the meridian system, and the universal life flow patterns in the body. We will also learn to sense the ‘free radical’ level in the body as well as DNA disruption levels. The sympathetic nervous system feeds generously into the Tarot to teach us about our clients. We will work on the basic premise that the client has a 90% chance of being too acidic in both dietary discipline and mental attitudes. The reading will further indicate light body energy and proximity to higher levels of conscious awareness.

When I began reading the Tarot Decks back in 1973, I used the traditional readings from books. Later on, I studied Carl Jung and his analysis of using Tarot for the study of emotional and mental problems. The many students in my area were using the Major Arcana of Tarot Cards to do the analysis. After many years, I have finally discovered a mannerism to use the entire Tarot Deck for the ‘Healing Intuitive Reading’. We will be examining five planes of health in a being. The heart and blood, the liver, pancreas, adrenals and kidneys, thymus, immune system and finally, the brain, will be examined. We are not doctors or medical professionals. We can merely look at this reading and advise a client as to what we have found. It is up to the client to decide how they will act on the information.
The Major and Minor Arcana
All areas in the reading are similar from the Minor Arcana and Major Arcana or trump cards. The numbered cards from Ace through Ten all have the same definition. Aces reflect the beginning of something new. This is not necessarily an illness but perhaps a dietary change or a lifestyle change. In any case, it discovers something new. Two through Ten merely defines the degree of intention within the situation, with Two being very mild and Ten reflecting a more serious problem. The court cards where the King and Queen reflect parents and genetic transfers or emotional and mental problems, are all the same. The Prince and Princess or whatever your deck depicts in the court cards are friends and co-workers who create challenges with emotional and mental blocks.
The Major Arcana are very different in that each card in each field has a different intention. The Major Arcana has within it cards that depict every planet in our solar system, including the Sun and Moon. It also has all twelve zodiac signs from the 0 of the Fool to 21 ‘The Universe’, which is the planet Saturn. Tarot is nothing more than the feminine interpretation of astrology and healing is a feminine activity. The Major Arcana will show up if something is going on. If none of these cards appear in any plane, the individual is relatively healthy but may have a pre-existing condition or a chronic condition under control. Most likely, the Major Arcana will appear somewhere and impact the reading.
The Healing Intuitive Card Layout
Using the tarot as a diagnostic tool for healing is a very effective way to analyze the five planes of existence. We create a spread of cards that has five planes of three cards each. To begin this reading, start in the middle of the reading area and place three cards face down diagonally left to right so that the bottom right corner touches the upper right corner of the card below it. Then we move to the lower right of this center spread and place one card face down. We move to the upper right just beyond the center spread and place one card face down. Repeat this in the upper left area and the lower left area and then continue placing one card into each plane until all four areas have three cards each.
We turn the center area over first. This will represent the activity of the heart in the person. All Tarot decks have some form of ‘Pentacles’ which represents the element ‘Earth’. All decks have Swords or some facility representing ‘Air’. All decks have Wands or some facility reflecting the element ‘Fire’. All decks have some form of ‘Cups’ reflecting the element ‘Water’. All healing intuitive diagnosis is a combination of either Earth, which normally indicates a physical anomaly or existing manifested illness; Swords, which reflects a supporting mental disposition aiding the illness; Wands, which indicates the depletion of energy or compromising energetic position due to the illness; and Cups, the fluid environment being affected.
The diagnosis will often indicate a pre-cursor condition leading towards a potential illness. In this course, I will teach you how to evaluate the hormonal balance, the endocrine system, the meridian system, and the universal life flow patterns in the body. We will also learn to sense the ‘free radical’ level in the body as well as DNA disruption levels. The sympathetic nervous system feeds generously into the Tarot to teach us about our clients.

The End Of A Ray Of Light
Moving to interpret experience
Through taking responsibility for it,
The incarnation into the ample ripeness,
Working within a chosen pattern
To cultivate the alignment
Of the deeply inspired desire for experiences
With resolutions of emotional balance,
Becomes the intuitively shared dream
Training the understanding of the expanding detail
Building a better world.
Assuming a shape in the illusion
From the desire to manifest creatively
The passion of experience,
The vortex of consequential circumstance
Putting the dream into reality
Unleashes the ideas urging their expression
To flow through the emotional witness,
And creates an opportunity to share
The rewards of their experience
In the celebration of their harmonies.
In the placing of an idea into limitations
To establish a personal reality’s focus,
The meeting of self-awareness and attitude
Around the desire for the purposeful experience
Crystallizes an intention into reality,
And, by animating the aspiration of belief
Within a surrounding mystery’s intrigue
Toward the discovery of the emotional big picture,
Produces the awareness of the vibration
Of accomplished intention.
The creativity from the self-imposed limits
Designing the containment of self-expression
Arises from the expanse of expectancy
Moved by the flow of abundance
To translate the ideas into the improved mastery
Of the imaginative inquiry
As the visionary dreams emotionally projected,
Including the impossible dreams
That allow a view of the larger reality
Calmly awaiting its moment of ripeness.
Arriving at the end of the light ray
To examine the nature of the chosen reality,
The initial balance within creative potential
Immediately encounters expansion and co-creation
Of a plan for balance held through movement
That a flow of passionate curiosity
Moving toward the empathic desire
Gathering intuitively shared ideals
Integrates into the strength of awareness
Able to take the timely action.
The multiplicity of existence experience
Arousing the reach of belief’s influence
By the focus of creative concern
Uses the principle of abundance and expansion
With ingenuity’s germinal imagination
To anticipate the adventure
As a dreaming memory
Connecting to a subconscious stream
Of gnosis manifesting into the conscientious details
Of the harmonious improvement.
When creating the responsibility of limits
In a paradigm’s possession of life,
Imagining an expansion of creative potential,
As recognized in the principle of abundance,
Experiences the advancement beyond creation
In the optimistic initiative to expand expectation,
And moves with the felt imagination
Toward the infinity’s invitation
To the expectation’s detailed experience
Of creativity fulfilled.
In the service to self,
A self-devoted purpose
Feels life’s experience
As forces in motion stimulating growth
Along pathways of talent practice,
Where the expansion and transformation of self
Calls for the intuitional awareness
To add new realms of perception
Sensing the invisible in the company of the visible,
And bringing the primary sources of light into focus.
Problem solutions gathering into expansion
Through their experience and release into memory
Are nurtured from the release of the problem
That allows the fullest experience of the solution,
Formed and processed into the flow of release,
As the vital force that supports the optimistic imagination
Illuminating the furtherance of the flow
In the increasing quest for the better experience
Accumulated into the point of the Universe
Of the potentiation of its expansion.
Working through these attitude changes
To find the enjoyment of reality,
The catalyst of the mind,
Making the turn toward the center,
Follows the engineering of love made visible
Along the reach of optimism’s growth
As it spirals in through the unconscious
Of the meditative awareness of a dream’s passion
Into the joy of the actuality’s appreciation
And the sharing of its blessings.

The Rapport Of The Sympathetic Affinity
When the beginning and end are one,
And the focus is on the meditated stillness
By an appreciation of the realized moment,
The sanctuary of the prized equilibrium
Offers itself as the home of enlightenment,
Conscience, virtue, responsibility, honor and truth,
Where the equipoise of the harmonious resolution
Toward the greatest emotional equilibrium
Places the depths of purpose into desire’s reality
Of empathically coordinated movement.
When the mindful grace and affection
Seeking an alignment with the Cosmos
Uses the love for such a beloved
Until there is no separation with All That Is,
The movement is toward the greatest equilibrium
Recognized by the concern for integrity
And the choice to adapt toward balance
In the movement of perception into analogy,
Learning what the pathway is
And its conveyance of emotional movement.
An attunement to the inner accord
Hosting the memories of foresight
Found as a fulfillment and new beginning
Presents the sensibility of the congruity
In the cognition of the moment’s balance,
Discerned by the collective eye of conscience
To be through the gateway of the need for the greatest equilibrium
In the rise toward the more complete balance
Maintaining equilibrium in movement
Beyond the moment and into memory.
To manage the transformation
During the recognition of internal infinity
At the joining of the self with the whole,
The sympathetic rapport at the rendezvous
Assists the change of attitude
Through the explication of the collective ideals
By relating them to the greatest equilibrium,
Where the changing values
Reveal the depth of purpose
Resolving the emotional balance of the whole.
In the focused imagination actualizing existence
On the initial spiritual plane,
The principled spirituality
That exists as infinite potential within all
Allows the shared insight
Of the wisdom of the full awareness
To manage the consensus into symmetry,
Moving around any resistance
As the fusion of intuitive imagination and intent
Continually resolving the emotional balance.
The mastery of the embodied Cosmos
Calling for the spiritual integrity of honesty
In the recognition of love
Moves from this reliability,
And a new sense of its harmonious expansion,
To manifest the point of balance
From which the loving adjustments
During truth’s experience
Are able to reach the next level of spiritual development
And approach the most rare truths.
As the matrix of the mind
Is found in the focus on the multiplicity of potential
By the experience of unconditional love,
The masterpiece of the total balance
Offers the process of pattern change
In the movement of balance through change
To show how the balance is being used
To leave stability in the venture into the unknown,
And cope with the multiple levels of awareness
Afloat in the sympathetic harmony.
The relationship with the superconscious
From the virtuous exploration of the unknown,
And the rapport of sharing the spiritual happiness
Accumulated in the sympathetic affinity
Joined in finding the comprehension of the unknown,
Uses the study of alignment and realignment
Around the co-created balance
To manage the vast expanse of uncertainty
With a more vast equilibrium,
All held within a dreamscape of memory and imagination.
To trust insight from memory and imagination,
A focus of spiritual integrity
From the position of emotional completion
Consciously responsible for identifying truth
Looks at the cognition’s choice for a solution’s resolution
In the chosen point of balance
That allows the truth to stand on its own,
Disentangled from the previous balance
And demonstrating the equipoise
Released from the fictions and mythicization.
When all the keys to discernment are held
By the patient strength understanding the strategy
Of the optimism from trusted truths,
The center of infinity, as a solution, flows
Into the waters of the greatest equilibrium,
Where truth in action
Resolves all judgment into the equilibrium
Continually expanding beyond eternity
Into the boldness that maintains the movement
Furthering the illumination of all darkness.

The Seed’s Paradigm
Where wisdom eliminates choice
In the meeting of mind, heart and action,
The anticipation of crystallized potential
Always imagining an ever greater paradigm
To find stability in the midst of uncertainty
Uses the consciousness of fulfillment
As a point of balance
Relatable to the greatest equilibrium
In the production of wisdom expressed
Into the dedicated strength of purpose.
Devising the multi-angled cognizance
To view the multiplicity of potential
From the center of balance,
A flow of the creative projection
Of the materiality established by higher consciousness

The limit at which the new perspective is reached,
Where an awakening to higher potentials
By the opening of the seed’s probability
Blooms in the fertility
Of a trusted intuition,
And moves to a new level of originality
Beyond boundaries defined by uncertainties
With a yearning for the imaginative inquiry
Furthering an evolved vitality,
Allows the will to envision new horizons.
At the point of overstanding
A paradigm’s alignment with the Cosmos,
A desire’s fabrication begins
To bring the dream’s nurturance
Of a synergetic stability
Toward the full awareness
Of the coexistence with the greatest equilibrium,
And the playfulness from a new perspective
Extends new understandings into new areas
Aspiring to expand the overstanding.
Moving past thought to open the way
For the visions to blossom
Into their full manifestation
Of the great desire revealed,
It is through the sense of the dream realized
That a fully felt idea
Focused on harmony
Will find the creativity of confidence
To produce the gnosis of the meticulous detail,
And act on it.
To move the mind out of the way
When an active flow of creative energy
Erupts from the sense of opportunity,
An expansion from the perception of the abundance
Allows the relaxed floating of trust
To carry the responsibility for realization
Along a path balancing the concerns of the mind and heart
While unfolding the exploration of the opportunity,
All in the practice of the loving effort
Toward the creative illumination of opportunities.
When illusion is identified
And the opportunity for the clarified reality
Is grasped and grounded,
Life is able to be lived more fully
In a synergetic movement of balance
Where the responsible volition
Attunes to the greatest equilibrium
To find the abundance, equanimity and beauty
Perfecting the overstanding
Moving as the center moves.
The resolution of the lesson learned
Is the operative in the study of fruition practices,
With each new resolution’s experience
Bringing more of the propagation nurturance
Into the flow of appreciated resolutions
Linked into the force of devotion
Where one will of consensus
Calls for the study of the process
That produces the awareness of the improved fruit
Persisting in the furtherance of potential’s expansion.
New perspectives of stretched knowledge
Will continue to need to clarify and define
The context of the enlarged paradigm
As the discovery of the self-aware reality
Is uncovered in the web of harmonious alignment,
Where an awakened flame in the heart of matter
Awaits the further expansion toward the greatest equilibrium
Held within all optimistic imagination
As an awareness of truth’s factuality
And the application of it.

Using the tarot as a diagnostic tool for healing is a very effective way to analyze the five planes of existence. We create a spread of cards that has five planes of three cards each. To begin this reading, start in the middle of the reading area and place three cards face down diagonally left to right so that the bottom right corner touches the upper right corner of the card below it. Then we move to the lower right of this center spread and place one card face down. We move to the upper right just beyond the center spread and place one card face down. Repeat this in the upper left area and the lower left area and then continue placing one card into each plane until all four areas have three cards each.
We turn the center area over first. This will represent the activity of the heart in the person. All Tarot decks have some form of ‘Pentacles’ which represents the element ‘Earth’. All decks have Swords or some facility representing ‘Air’. All decks have Wands or some facility reflecting the element ‘Fire’. All decks have some form of ‘Cups’ reflecting the element ‘Water’. All healing intuitive diagnosis is a combination of either Earth, which normally indicates a physical anomaly or existing manifested illness; Swords, which reflects a supporting mental disposition aiding the illness; Wands, which indicates the epletion of energy or compromising energetic position due to the illness; and Cups, the fluid environment being affected.
The diagnosis will often indicate a pre-cursor condition leading towards a potential illness. In this reading, we learn how to evaluate the hormonal balance, the endocrine system, the meridian system, and the universal life flow patterns in the body. We will also learn to sense the ‘free radical’ level in the body as well as DNA disruption levels. The sympathetic nervous system feeds generously into the Tarot to teach us about our clients. We will work on the basic premise that the client has a 90% chance of being too acidic in both dietary discipline and mental attitudes. The reading will further indicate light body energy and proximity to higher levels of conscious awareness.

And the sustenance of the truth’s reach

Must move through levels of trust
To bring the greatest understanding of trust
And the doubtless truth.
As the interpreter of wisdom’s Source
Proceeding with truth to dispel doubts

At the final reach of the light of creativity,

Communicating the deepest understandings maturely.
As the inner ear connects with the higher self
To give the first inkling of the insight’s illumination,
The method of unfolding the comprehension
Steers, via a universal perspective,
The explanation of doubt’s elimination
Through the expansion toward the greatest equilibrium,
Offering the cornerstone and blueprint
With only the emotional hydraulics needed
To bring out the full flow of imagination
Unwavering in intent to cut through confusion.

In the desire to know
If the overstanding of potential
Has connected the physical experience with a higher consciousness
To allow a conclusion from a focus fully accepted

Where this reception meets this creativity
In momentary satisfaction,
Expands and transforms the self through this process
To bring forward the confidence that perceives illusion.

Is felt by its resonance with the inner truth
Held by the feeling for the natural resolution
In the realm of the flowing anticipation,
Where the determined truths
Flow as a stream of solutions,
Each with its advancement of awareness
Issuing more appreciation and momentum
To the speedily expanding horizons
And increasingly purified awareness of the truth.

Of truth’s matrix catalyzed into experience
Uses this definitive overstanding,
Whose strength lies in the cognition of the balance
It takes to support truth’s wholeness
All the way to the greatest equilibrium
To confidently connect the horizons
Which access the truth through their expansion.
The recognition of symmetry as trustable truth
In the clear comprehension of the unrecognized
Allows the perception of the moment
A larger framework of the pattern
That allows the clarity of vision transcending thought
To comprehend a flow of cognition
From a sense of the greatest equilibrium,
Where the questioning of the heart
Feels the configuration of unified
Truth and comprehension resolving mystery.
These steps through revelation into a new consciousness
In the breathing in of comprehension’s first level
Has this focused moment’s point of reference
As a firm foundation
From which the past is left behind
And the release into the new perspective
Reaches out of the manifested balance
At the edge of completion
As a new self-awareness
Complete with the clarity of the expanding overstanding.

Weekly Oracle Card Reading
Card One: This first card is from the Angel Therapy deck by Doreen Virtue and it is called "FAIRIES". This card is letting us know that we DO indeed have a connection with the Faery Realms! Today is a good time to spend time in nature or to surround yourself with flowers, crystals or other natural objects as these naturally attract fairies to you.
This last card is from the Life Purpose Oracle Deck by Doreen Virtue and it is called "OPTIONS". It's saying there are other career possibilities for you. I feel that we are in a time of receiving Diving Inspiration - we are being guided to make changes in our lives and that could mean career changes or simply just slight shifts in our current occupation. Be open to divine guidance today regarding career.

In the best possible outcome.
A new threshold of consciousness
In the harvest of the trusted truth’s fruit
That combines personal consciousness with wisdom’s source
In the reflection of the inner focus into manifestation
Casts aside the conceptual inadequacies
To allow the collective ethos
Potentials for developments beyond worldly concerns,
And intertwine the mutual benefits
Into a commitment to honesty
As the beautiful solution.
The passionate optimism that is faith’s flower
Looks toward the creation of a new dimension
Linking the archetypal world with the creative
To initiate a fresh flow of abundance
Beyond the notions of past limits,
A dimension where the study of what endures
Is the celebrated idea of harmonious flow,
Whose trustable design of reciprocal energy
Presents the integrity of the balance
Found harmonious with horizon expansion.
The abundance offered to support faith
Seen in the recognition of life’s gifts
Has the interpreter of such love
Recognizing beauty and harmony
In the redefinition of existence,
Where the new alternatives from love’s experience
Accomplish the value fulfillment
Of the heart-felt choice to take
The resolving tensions of oppositional thought
Into the center of beauty and harmony.

After The End
The inevitability of the final result eventuality
From a focus on the great assay
Identifies specific access points
Easily taken from the abundant opportunity for lasting success
And placed into the chosen moment of mortality
Most suited to the frame of reference,
Where the containment of considered existence
Within a quixotic notion of shared reality
Plays in a sentimental mood,
Turning lights on and off.
The epilogue of the eventuality,
In an effort to define and clarify its identity,
Objectively observes the imagination
Where creative meets the imaginative receptive’s call
To use lessons of the time and mortality
In an intuitive dance evolving a frame of reference
That comprehends a present moment
Of empathy’s passionate dream
Containing the primal paradise and furthered eventuality
As a message from totality.
The infinity of free will treats inevitability as a death
Where a future time is envisioned
By the individuation of space and time
From the point of a tangible beginning
Redefining the personal balance-center
To the reach of the most clear perception,
With death created to give birth to the future
Emotionally connected to the awareness
Of the collective memory of harmony and beauty
That rejuvenates life’s infinite expansion.
Resigned to letting go of the past
In the search of the multiplicity’s potential,

Chooses the source of inspiration to reach out to
And directs the energy of intention

To the personal quest for a sweeter world
Unleashing the past’s emotional treasures

Gives time and space to find and support a genuine solution
Working the potential for transformation all of the way

Vivifying the consciousness with totality.

From the newly identified resource
Believed to be reality’s promise
Knows only balance from birth as a surety,
And the need for the end of imbalance
As the viewpoint of the reality at hand,
Where the peaceful resolution in death and rebirth
Seeks to transcend limits in the inner awareness of the shared dream
Connecting all who are conscious of life’s gnosis
In the light of eternity.

Manages to ride the force moving into form
Not subjugated by the external
Through an intuitional flow of focus

To bring forward the light of intuitive investigation
Moving idealism into the unknown,

Illuminating the unexplored.

Woven by the compassionate ideas gathered

Enabling the dream outside of time

And the positioning and timing of wisdom gained
To innovate a creativity toward these new horizons
Through a focus placing compassionate reflection into a resolution

Awakens into the deep memories of the Cosmos
A new sense of self in relation to the whole.

Self-Resourceful Limit Manipulation

Reflecting the awareness of love

Necessary to complete the determination of consequence
And balance in judgment.

By the manager of the unfolding paradigm
Arises in the call for a deep sense of readiness

To process the adaptation through change
From a conclusion’s focus
To the further depths of the future’s memory.
Drawing conclusions that limit possibilities
Around the desire for love
Is from faith in external material evidence,
While the passion resources within
Are guiding the transition to a new vibration
Able to adapt to and make the change to the limits
That encourages the dreamed expansion of love
That makes way for the reality change
Into a future of fewer limits
And more intuitive mastery.
To get a realistic idea about the limits
Placed on emotional fruition

The passion of the extent of the reach
Tasked with moving beyond all self-imposed limits
Uses these limits to realize their horizons,
And, with this new level of understanding,
The change that changes everything
Brings forth the new perspective
Of self-resourceful limit manipulation.
The tenuous structure of integrated conclusions
Expecting emotional support
Is a satisfaction concept
Moved by the courage to allow
An awakened flame in the heart of the structure
To co-create the bounty of love
Calling forth a sanctuary of soothing support,
Where an effort to support a changing environment
Ends the doubt inhabiting the corners of hope
From the faith bestowing the inner spring.
So the value of intellectual conclusions
In the desire for emotional success
Is the arousing reach of belief’s influence
Of strength, passion and love
Penetrating any burdensome concepts
With the faith of the inner fortitude
Manifesting the creative concern of emotional maturity
Refusing to support a reality where truth is denied,
And making the conscious decision to evolve toward the harmony
Potentiating the emotional experience.

Where the bequeathal of values and knowledge to the future
Arises through the meditated harmonization
Of the intention to manage value fulfillment

And all previous design of the moment’s impossibilities
To become the birth of the new infinity

Stepping out of reaction into reflection
To move through scattered inconsistency,
The unassailable position for the attitude
Is the consciousness of enduring equability
Held by a position of compassion for balance
Able to place this intent for balance
Beyond the inescapable inevitability
Of contrast organizing patterns into conclusions
Into the place of one conscious immortality
Comprehended through evolving cognizance.
A move into the reflections of inner waters
In the desire for the greater understanding

Finalizing the paradigm into the metamorphosis

Reaches the shared insight fostering attainment

Co-created and developed beyond fulfillment.
Suspending disbeliefs and judgments in general
To deal with inner conflict manifesting as imposition,
The ocean within the wave
Moves through the shared abundance
Most successfully as a flow of repose
With a dynamic equilibrium preserved by expansion,
Whose principle of letting go and moving forward
Finds the release of the past impositions
To be the blossom of trust bearing the fruit
Seeding the fortunate expansion.
Dissolving patterns into new weavings
By dancing between multiple focal points,
A behavior of fusing will and imagination
Moving inherited traditions forward
Appreciates the contemplated potential
In the advantage of a devotion to the equilibrium
By placing a new perspective transforming the moment
At the border of the self-made area
To commence the initiation of the co-creation
Weaving the tradition into its new perspective.
The new perspective from the more general view, then,
Focusing on the interface with the multiple levels of awareness
Resonating with the core self,
Uses this shared experience of the self-core
To manage their balance during expansion’s
Assertion of values toward fulfillment
By making way for the possibilities
Freed from uncertainty’s confinement
To rise into the overstanding
Of harmony’s potential in the collective equilibrium.

Listening To The Inner Teacher
The principle of intuition, self-trust and self-resourcefulness
In the process of desire unfoldment
Is used by the playful exercise of the power of thought
To master the focus, will, concentration and passionate intention
Toward the most harmonious presence
Able to cultivate expansion’s potential,
Where the energy that allows higher consciousness to establish materiality
Uses a basic working relationship with conscience-ness
To enjoy the full communication of desire
And the dynamic progress it inspires.
Opening the intuitional portal
To find the trusted affirmation
That the conceptual moralist
Discerning truth’s point of honor
Brings toward harmonious balance,
The respect for the horizon’s point of balance
Felt by an ever deepening sense of fruitful union
Encourages the sense of direction
In a lucidity beyond emotional parameters
Merging ideals and intuition into action.
The introspection digesting the intuitive awareness
In the effort to improve the basis for belief
By the courage to face inner truth
Works with the convincing concepts
To instigate the manifestation of balance
As a presence of revealed values,
Where the giving of self to the process of self-transformation
Brings authenticity to intuitional movement
And a recognition of the opened heart
In mastery of growth, inner development and increased perception.
When the insight recognizes potential
As a sustenance of creative inspiration
And the defining of truth’s reality
Uses a mind connected with intuition,
The move toward balance
As a studied response to a potential’s recognition
Allows the intuitional judgment of reality
To harness forces toward personal purpose
That produce the potential’s successful resolution
And the expansion of successful actuation’s mastery.
Connecting spirit to the manifestation of intent
In the identification of the vital actuality,
The creative concern of the developing ethic
In dynamic pursuit of trusted truths
Uses the movement toward balance
Of the gathered wisdom
Intuitionally judging reality
To identify the clear purpose
Harmonious with the most valued vitality
And highest wisdom of potentiality.
Understanding the flow of intuition
To facilitate the spiritual realization
That is the recognition of truth within
Informed by the cosmic will
Is to experience the harmonium of a center
As the flow of a mountain in fruition,
Recognizing the balance of synergetic reciprocity
As the prowess of flow
And the giving of self to wisdom
In the achievement of timely movement.
Listening to the inner teacher
In the contemplation of a center’s primal information,
The insight of conscience-ness
Aligning with the higher truth
To recognize the creative process
In the psychic innovation applied
To the sympathetic harmony of co-creation
Casts a pathway of focused intent
Flowing from appreciation to the inevitability
Revealing the greater apperception.
This inner voice potentiating experience
By using a spiritual significator
To freshen defined reality
Uses the expansion of belief
And the flow of creative energy
Toward the exploration of value fulfillment
To relate with the dynamic of sympathetic harmony
In all of the multiple levels of awareness,
And live the experience of principled spirituality
Seeking the greater wisdom.
The offer of the new pathway
Answers the call for vivified consciousness
By the student of reality rendering,
Where the power of perception
Reconciling a multiplicity of vibrating variables
Grasps the wisdom of the ages, untapped yet offered,
To bring forth an appreciation of the offering
In the focusing of intent
On the fertility for harmonious progress
Of the creative mind at its best.
The ideation from this potentiated experience
Looks through the cognizance of vivified consciousness
As the bringing forth of spiritual aspirations
Mastering the conscience adjustment
Places the balanced presence
Of the matter’s consequentiality
Into the sympathetic harmony
That manages the personal experience motivation
To produce the idea that furthers belief’s progress
In its creations of believability.

What Covers You
The general theme, situation or question, the heart of the matter, what is going on inside of you.
Page of Swords
Briefly: Time to go out there and make your indelible mark on the world in your own unique way.
Full Meaning: This guy is ready for action and adventure. He is capable of acting quickly and confidently. Yet he is known to be somewhat aloof at times and may seem too young to tackle the tasks at hand. He is brave and sometimes foolishly confident. He learns well though by his mistakes, because he usually makes them while he is young.
He is often very good looking, crystal clear blue eyes, though sometimes has pure black eyes. His skin is smooth and clean shaven. He has a boyish look to his face, even when in his late twenties or early thirties. He has innocent charm and can make the girls swoon around him, yet hardly noticing that he has this affect on them. He has the wanderlust in him and will want to travel at a young age. He can hardly wait to get out there in the world and explore what life has to offer.
If this card is the querent's card, it could be signalling the time to go out there and make your indelible mark on the world in your own unique way with no apology to anyone.
If this card is not you, you could encounter someone like him who briefly walks through your life. Cherish this while it lasts, for it may or may not last very long. He wants to be on the move and no amount of clinging will keep him from getting out the door. Let him go and he will return when he is ready.
What Crosses You
This card is placed over the 1st card and magnifies the forces at work for this question, the card can therefore be a positive sign or one requiring more work or opposing forces. Also a contrary element, source of resistance, balancing tendency, factor for change, something unpredictable, what is rocking the boat, supporting feature, opposing factor.
Wheel of Fortune
Briefly: This card is a delight to arrive in your reading. Not only can it bring about an unusual turn of events that are quite fortunate for you.
Full Meaning:
This card is a delight to arrive in your reading. Not only can it bring about an unusual turn of events that are quite fortunate for you, but that you are finally taking the lead in the direction of your own life and your ultimate destiny. This card suggests not so much that events happen to you, but rather that you instigate many major changes to bring about a new life with new challenges and renewed hope. You may decide to leave a job, leave a partner, or go overseas and the decisions you make with regards to these will be so swift that you will shatter some people's impressions that you were once a stable and slow mover. Now all things must change, and change swiftly.
If you should happen to win the lottery or some other good fortune befalls you, make sure you know exactly what you want to do with your new-found freedom, independence and wealth. The bolt out of the blue is likely to happen just when you thought you were in a rut and didn't anticipate anything was going to alter.
Opportunities can arise thick and fast and leave you gasping for air between this offer and that. Don't allow anyone to push you into anything you are unsure of.
What Is Beneath You
The foundations to this situation or the source of the problem, why things are as they are, soul purpose, what is really going on, hidden influence, starting point, deeper meaning.
Four of Swords
Briefly: It is time to take a rest, have a break, maybe have a holiday or in some other way remove yourself from current pressures.
Full Meaning: Initially when you draw this card, it is telling you to take a rest, have a break, maybe have a holiday or in some other way remove yourself from current pressures. You may be run-down, tired, and now it is time to be a little contemplative and to take it easy for awhile. The daily routine has become too demanding or even mundane and you need a change, any change will do. If you have been feeling unwell, it may be time to consult a doctor, a surgeon or even a dentist. Often it can indicate needing an injection, or cutting implements may be needed, as in surgery of some kind, or medications. This is a good time to start looking after yourself, and protecting yourself against such things as getting an infection or fever. Antibiotics may be needed or a tonic or some vitamins. Some people just need to get more sleep or rest. Your lungs may need attention at this time or you are experiencing some type of respiratory problem. If this is the case, then seek help in the early stages to avoid any long-term health problem and your recovery will be quick.
What Is Behind You
What has just past, the influences that are passing away. Also resolved factors, a quality to let go, fading concern, taken care of, no longer useful.
Ace of Pentacles
Briefly: You will be surprised to learn that one of your greatest financial wishes is about to come true.
Full Meaning: This card shows a large pentacle in the middle which is symbolic of material wealth and abundance. If you should receive this card in your layout, and it is representative of a future event, then you will be surprised to learn that one of your greatest financial wishes is about to come true. This can bring financial stability to those who have never had it before in their life.
What Crowns You
Current situation and influences. Influences that are to come, conscious influence, goal or purpose, what you accept as true, what you intend to achieve, expectations, what you 'think' will happen.
Ten of Pentacles
Briefly: A blessed union, one full of love and caring.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card shows a couple, a man and a woman, under an archway. They are looking at each other very affectionately. Beside them a young child stays close to the woman. In the foreground of this picture sits an older, wiser male, his years have caught up with him and now he sits and watches all that he has acheived. He is at peace, his family surrounds him and his wealth is evident. He has and still commands much respect as is shown by the two dogs eagerly awaiting his attention. If you are currently single, you may be about to become attached, as in meeting the person you will eventually marry, or actually tying the knot very soon if you are engaged. This will be a blessed union, one full of love and caring. There may also be some financial benefits of mutual sharing coming up in the very near future. It may very well be that your either your close or extended family comes in to assist you start your own venture. If you are currently not particularly financial, your future security is near at hand, and this may come about via any means, such as a windfall, inheritance or the benefit of shared resources.
What Is Before You
What will happen in the very near future if you continue on the current path. Immediate future, approaching influence, feature gaining importance, still pending, to be taken care of, factor to be welcomed.
The Chariot
Briefly: Travel awaits you. Should the other travel card, the six of swords also be in your card layout, then this is an indicator that you are to move across new ground, or maybe even purchase a mode of travel such as a car.
Full Meaning:
Generally speaking this card depicts some kind of travel. Should the other travel card, the six of swords also be in your card layout, then this is an indicator that you are to move across new ground. However, even by itself, as this is a major arcana card, travel is still a strong possibility. You may travel quite a distance and your goal is to get there, by whatever means you can find, even horseback if necessary. This can also mean that someone is coming from a long distance towards you.
For some people this can represent getting a new mode of transport, such as buying your first car, or buying a new car or bike or whatever. The emphasis is on getting to your destination by the quickest route available.
This card too is about choices. You may have to make a major decision around this time that will alter your circumstances quite dramatically. Do not resist change for that will disrupt the natural flow of events that are waiting to unfold for you.
Also I have seen this card manifest in matters to do with re-decorating the home. Sometimes it is just new curtains or cushions, however the aim is to bring comfort into the home.
Your Self
You are you are, as you could be, how you see yourself, talent or ability you can use, goal for yourself, public face, how you think you should be, self image, sense of where you are, how you limit yourself.
Eight of Swords
Briefly: A difficult situation to deal with.
Full Meaning: This can be a difficult situation to deal with. There may be restrictions in your life that you would like to be freed from. It is also a mentally stressful occasion that requires clarity of thinking and forethought to resolve. If you keep your wits about you and refuse to be depressed you will manage to sail through this time with flying colours and be amazed at your strength of will when you have come out of the other end of the fog and retrospectively look back on how well you handled yourself and the dilemma you had faced.
Endurance is the key to coping right now and your decisions may have far-reaching consequences. You will find you have matured throughout the process of dealing with your problems. You may have to let go of relationships and friendships and this will prove to be an unburdening for you and allow you the freedom to pursue your own goals.
Do not be dismayed by these goodbyes, for they are a necessary part of your new path to follow, unhindered by a lifestyle that had cramped your style and your latent talents.
Now you will start to blossom and to produce good works in whatever field you focus on right now. Allow flexibility in your thinking for fresh ideas and ways of doing things will open new doorways to your true destiny
Around You
Opinions and influences of friends and family about the matter in question. What others think of the situation, another point of view, as others see you, atmosphere, other persons point of view, what others want from you, what another thinks you should do.
Ten of Wands
Briefly: Your objectives now need to be focussed on the long term solution to current problems, rather than just a band aid on the situation.
Full Meaning: This card shows a man struggling with a heavy load. Remember the saying "can't see the forest for the trees?" Perhaps you need to take a step back and look at the whole picture. This may reflect some aspect of your life where you feel a little overwhelmed and unable to continue without a strong will and a determination not to fail. Your motives are of high standing and you only want what is best for everyone concerned. You will soon gain the feather in your cap and be able to move freely through life as if the coast is finally clear. Your objectives now need to be focussed on the long term solution to current problems, rather than just a band aid on the situation. Give yourself every effort to succeed and you surely will.
Hopes and Fears
our own hopes and ideals on the matter, aspirations and ideas of success, guidance, key factors, overlooked factor, what you might do, how to proceed, how you can make a change, ward of warning, truth of the matter, honest assessment, something you haven't considered. element of surprise, missing piece of the puzzle.
Knight of Pentacles
Briefly: A message of good news to someone who really needs it.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card shows a man in a suit of armour riding a horse. He carries a large pentacle in his right hand. He moves forward confidently yet keeping a keen eye out for any obstacles in his path. He is delivering a message of good news to someone who needs it. This may be a financial opportunity coming your way, or you have just won the lottery. He is the bearer of good news, so welcome him with open arms and be sure to give him some refreshment on arrival to your door. If you have just started a new business venture with a friend, this will prove to be a sound investment in your future.
Outcome
This card tells what the overall final outcome if the current path continues. Consider the influence of all previous cards, particularly the 6th (what is before you) card, which is a more short term representation of the final outcome. How the situation will be resolved, lesson you will learn, what others may do, improvement that will occur.
Five of Swords
Briefly: A time where one person has won out at the expense of two other people.
Full Meaning: There are 3 people in the picture and one of them has the upper hand in the matter. The other two have lost something that they valued, whether it was love, a material possession of whatever to the one who is holding the swords.
In the background there is the Sun setting so this can indicate early evening. One of the people is appears to be sad and crying. He has lost whatever he/she once had and is now sorry, but it is all too late. Generally I read this as one person has won out at the expense of two other people and they are walking away with their trophy, person or thing of value. The others have lost out and they now know it. They may feel they have been betrayed, but they weren't, it was a matter of the best one winning, and there could only be one winner in this situation. Usually this means that you are the one who is the winner

All movement unfolds the expanded perspective
Connecting the vision of inner balance
Held by the poised belief system
With the balance of All That Is,
With each choice manipulating relativity
In the animation of co-created reality
Through the imagining of the viewpoint’s identity
And need for self-expression
To produce a maturing emotional structure
Nurturing the harmonious creation.
Redefining the paradigm
Through the reflection’s intuitive reasoning,
Vitality’s power of enhancement
Uses an ideal state of being
To co-create the wisdom that eliminates choice
Through the intuition’s message of future results
Re-membered into the venturous paradigm
With a spiritual force for balance
That makes the quest for spiritual satisfaction
The receptivity conjuring creation.
The point of the new focus
Toward the potentiation of the new possibility
By a desire to manifest creatively
Imagines the ephemeral flower always being born
As the committed mutuality to be engaged
In the captivation of the moment,
Where the initiation of prowess
Toward the focalization of such influence
Manifests a more meaningful infinity
Amiable to the resolution of all possibilities.
The perspective re-membering experience
With consideration of the inner oracle’s message
Able to be grasped
Uses this capacity to overstand the resolution
As a relationship equilibrium
Creatively sustaining a vision
Where the timing of the new perspective
Integrating aspiration and focalization
Projects an emotional structure
That casts receptivity’s call for co-creation.
Coping with philosophical adjustment
As the inner voice talks about choices and timing,
The life of universe enhancement
Dancing with limitations
Empathically associates with the history of choice
In the pursuit of desire
To make the timely movement that achieves wisdom
In a focalization through contrast
That moves to the more meaningful position
That cultivates the expanded potential.
The volition of self interest
Digesting subconscious memory
Presents its beliefs of value fulfillment
To the expansion of infinity
In the furtherance of desire-value-need redefinition
Under the light of spiritual purpose potency,
Where the development of the talent of consciousness
Learns the balanced resolution process
That projects this emotional structure into maturity
Aspiring to the application of creative concern.
When moved to explore further,
The offer of the unknown calls
The responsibility for reality co-creation
To direct the co-created flow
Of goal-oriented creation
Through the sustainable vision
Into the delectation
That identifies the chosen propensity
Of a move beyond an eternity’s boundaries
As the true value fulfillment.
The attempt to attune to the vital vibration
In the anticipation of the emotional experience
Is the pre-occupation of reality containment
In the movement through resolutions into beginnings,
Where the relationship with choice
Creatively sustaining vision
Harnesses the fire for self-integration
Of the depth of feeling conjoined with deal aspirations
To rise to the loftier thought
And mastery of the resolution’s preparation.
Conscience-ness that is able to flow
In its perception of the emotional potential
Reaches from an owned center
Toward the resolution in balance
By way of the choice that transforms
The personal initiative
And provides the illumination
Of the unfulfilled potential
That moves perception into analogy
And aspirations of received creation.
Once transformed by new information,
A flowing recognition of potential
Aroused by the reach of belief’s influence
From the center of the all-encompassing experience
Expands along pathways of trust
As the strength of conviction and self-respect
Uses the potency of the transformation
To make active the assertion
That feeling the unknown has value
To be consequentially resolved.

What Covers You
The general theme, situation or question, the heart of the matter, what is going on inside of you.
The World
Briefly: Travel is often associated with this card, new found freedom is just around the corner. You may also expect that your situation will improve quite dramatically in the near future and you are able to explore life with more energy and enthusiasm.
Full Meaning: The World. This card shows a woman standing in the centre of the card and all she is wearing is a piece of cloth draped around her body leaving her breasts bare. She is apparently dancing and has a wand of some type in each hand. She has long brown hair and is carefree and open about herself and her motives. There is a wreath of leaves and ribbon surrounding her and behind this is the bull, lion, eagle and the head of a male figure. These represent the four fixed signs of the zodiac which are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. These signs may very well be symbolic of someone in your life already who is having a huge influence on you, or it can represent someone coming into your life who is born under one of these signs of the zodiac. Travel is often associated with this card, as it can mean travelling the world and meeting many people on your journey. It is also a card of freedom which is indicated by the woman being almost naked. If you wish to be free of some limiting circumstance and then you draw this card, chances are you new found freedom is just around the corner. You may also expect that your situation will improve quite dramatically in the near future and you are able to explore life with more energy and enthusiasm. Circumstance can alter so quickly that you basically blink and then discover you have a new life opening up to you.
What Crosses You
This card is placed over the 1st card and magnifies the forces at work for this question, the card can therefore be a positive sign or one requiring more work or opposing forces. Also a contrary element, source of resistance, balancing tendency, factor for change, something unpredictable, what is rocking the boat, supporting feature, opposing factor.
Ten of Cups
Briefly: This card symbolises great happiness and contentment.
Full Meaning: This card shows a man and woman with one arm around each and their outer arms held up high welcoming good news. Beside them two young children hold hands and dance. There is a rainbow in the background and several tall, green trees, some shrubs, beside a river and with mountains in the far distance. The sky is blue and the day looks warm as in Springtime. There are 10 cups across the sky in front of the rainbow. This card symbolises great happiness and contentment. Two people are brought together in unison and peace to share a special time in their lives. A joint project has obviously reached fruition and they are proud of their achievements and wish to celebrate in grand style. If you draw this card you may rest assured, that even though it took a long time to get where you are, it has all been worth the effort and the energy expended. You can relax in your new found comfort zone and pursue your other objectives with peace of mind, knowing that your life is now more secure than it has ever been.
What Is Beneath You
The foundations to this situation or the source of the problem, why things are as they are, soul purpose, what is really going on, hidden influence, starting point, deeper meaning.
The Hierophant
Briefly: A man of wisdom and vast experience of life. A guiding light in the dark, a kind and inspiring man you can call on for guidance and advice.
Full Meaning:
This major arcana card is one of a little mystery. The man pictured looks like he knows all the answers. He is clothed in regal attire suggestive of a link with royalty. He looks too like a religious man, perhaps a priest, and the sceptre in his hand is a symbol of mastery and possibly also magic.
He appears to be an elderly man, a man of wisdom and vast experience of life. He seems like a guiding light in the dark. If this card represents you, then you are quite likely at the stage in your life where everything is under control. You have walked the rocky road of life and have mastered the techniques to reach a time of achievement and satisfaction. You may have reached all your previous goals and can now sit back and perhaps rest on your laurels if that is what you choose to do. It is a time of equilibrium, balance and serenity. The troubles of the world are behind you, and now you can take the time out to rest without too many challenges ahead.
If this card represents someone in your life, you obviously look up to this person with great respect. He may have been, and still is, you best friend, your mentor, your confidante. He is a kind and inspiring man and you may have called on him for guidance and advice, which he gave with compassion and willingness. He may even be a spiritual guru who showed you the way when it was dark or in your hour of greatest need. He would have aided you in finding your path in life or gave hints of the mysteries that can often be hidden even from those who search for the meaning of life so compellingly. He is the keeper of the knowledge of life and will share it with those who seek it. He is the eternal philosopher and seeker of truth.
The keys can often be symbolic of new keys coming into your life, such as new house keys or car keys. It can also show you to be aware of where you leave your keys as you may find that you accidently misplace them, which can prove to be very inconvenient. As keys can represent a new direction you are about to take in life, this may suggest that the time is ripe to make significant life changes right now or in the very near future. This card can also represent marriage.
What Is Behind You
What has just past, the influences that are passing away. Also resolved factors, a quality to let go, fading concern, taken care of, no longer useful.
Eight of Pentacles
Briefly: A keen eye for details may lead to you gaining a financial increase.

He is studiously working away making the coins with his hands. He is strong, muscular and very attentive to details. On the wall behind him are the results of his hard work, various pentacles displayed there for all to see, like awards. If you are this man then are you industrious and will lend a hand wherever possible. You have a keen eye for details and can be counted on to finish the days tasks. You may be about to come into a financial increase of some kind, which may be by your own efforts, or given to you for your own generosity in the past. If you are a woman you may be about to meet this man and he will be a loyal companion and a devoted husband and father if you choose to become united with him. He will be a good provider and keen to see that you get your needs met in every way.
What Crowns You
Current situation and influences. Influences that are to come, conscious influence, goal or purpose, what you accept as true, what you intend to achieve, expectations, what you 'think' will happen.
The Fool
Briefly: Journey of unique and unknown destination. Innocent of life and will have to learn by his own mistakes. He is a wanderer, with great enthusiasm for life and for love.
Full Meaning: This card shows a picture of a young man walking towards a cliff edge, with a long rod leaning over his shoulder. On the end of the rod there appears to be a handkerchief holding all of his worldly possessions. Following beside him is a small white dog. He is almost oblivious to what pitfalls may lay before him. He is on a, a journey of discovery. He is almost like a tourist, as he looks right, left, above and below to anything that catches his eye. He is curious and adventurous. He wants to know everything and is keen to look, learn and discover whatever life is going to teach him. He is innocent of life and will probably make many mistakes along the way. He is a student of life and will have to learn by his own mistakes. He is a wanderer, with great enthusiasm for life and for love. He is young and open-minded, with a desire to have many new and varied experiences so that he can get a taste for life and decide what it is that he really wants. He does not yet know what the world will bring, nor what his unique destiny is, but he will soon find out.
What Is Before You

Behind him are the nine cups and this is often called the wish card. Whatever your true heart desires will come to you with relative ease. There is a sense of satisfaction and happiness with one's place in life. Often material gains are unfolding towards you and you will enjoy general good health and a more safe and secure lifestyle. Many celebrations and social gatherings are likely to occur in the near future and you may also attend some special dress up type parties such as fancy dress parties.
Your Self

King of Wands
Briefly: A man who has come a long way and yet feels he still has so much to do ahead of him.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card is of a man wearing a warm woollen cape and he has an emblem on the shoulder which could signify some kind of badge or logo associated with his profession. He is holding a wand in his left hand. He is often a married man with children. His is warm in character and a good listener. He likes to take charge of situations and can handle most that life presents to him. He is a keen sportsman and is usually very energetic. He is proud and can command respect on entering a room. He is masterful and shows others his talents if he is asked to do so, otherwise he is reflective and private. He is a man who has come a long way and yet feels he still has so much to do ahead of him. Travel is one of his favourite pursuits and he does this to explore nature and the different cultures. He is always open to new challenges and loves learning everything he can about life and the differing philosophies. If you are not this man, and you are male, he may enter your life and you would be grateful to have him as a friend. If you are a young male, this will be who you become after about the age of 35. If you are a woman, this could be your husband or your future husband. If you are a married woman and he is not your husband, he may be the husband of one of your best friends.
Around You
Opinions and influences of friends and family about the matter in question. What others think of the situation, another point of view, as others see you, atmosphere, other persons point of view, what others want from you, what another thinks you should do.

Briefly: You may also be about to meet someone very special with whom you fall in love with and marry.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card is of a woman wearing a crown and beautiful clothes and a robe, with a wand in one hand and a lovely golden sunflower in the other. There is an abundance of green leaves around the flower and the wand. She looks serene and calm. She is obviously a woman of considerable power and influence. She also appears warm and welcoming. She has lovely blonde hair and blue eyes. She displays an air of sophistication and strength. If you are this woman then you have truly found your destiny. If this is the woman you are about to become, then rest assured your future is secure and you will find all of your needs met. You may also be about to meet someone very special with whom you fall in love with and marry. This may develop during the warmer months of the year, as in Spring or Summer. If this is someone you know, then value her friendship, for she is loyal and trustworthy. If you are a male, you may meet this woman through a friend and become involved with her in a romantic relationship. If you are a young person, this person could be your mother or a teacher, or both.
Hopes and Fears
our own hopes and ideals on the matter, aspirations and ideas of success, guidance, key factors, overlooked factor, what you might do, how to proceed, how you can make a change, ward of warning, truth of the matter, honest assessment, something you haven't considered. element of surprise, missing piece of the puzzle.
The Devil
Briefly: This could be the little devil who is prankish or disruptive in the classroom or with other playmates. However it can also be a strong and forceful element in a grown up that unleashes its tremendous energies at whoever stands in the way of his/her desires. Someone can be incredibly possessive and dominating around you if you pull this card out in your reading.
Full Meaning: This could be the little devil who is prankish or disruptive in the classroom or with other playmates. However it can also be a strong and forceful element in a grown up that unleashes its tremendous energies at whoever stands in the way of his/her desires. This is considered a Trump card, and therefore contains many powers to be utilised as the needs or desires arise. Someone can be incredibly possessive and dominating around you if you pull this card out in your reading. Often they have a love/hate relationship with someone and it could be getting out of control. Someone is madly in love with or wants to control the actions of another and this should not be allowed to continue as it represents one persons victory at the cost of another's defeat, and to great distress for the one defeated. If you are trying to succeed in business it is likely that you will with this card as there is no stopping the determination and the will to succeed. Someone may be power hungry around you and their ambitions are stirred to such an extent that failure is inconceivable to them. Do not anger or irritate those who show the slightest signs of violence or hostilities, for to unleash the devil has no boundaries or limitations to the trail of devastation it can leave in its wake.

Card 1 symbolizes your situation: ----- Ten of Arrows
In The Lover’s Path Tarot, the suit of arrows is associated with Cupid and Psyche, represented upon Awakening (XIX),

Dressed in fiery red, the Queen of Staves holds her power within herself,
represented by the simmering vessel resting upon her lap.
Her enthusiasm is focused only toward those projects and people she finds worthy of attention.
She is wise enough to understand that action for the sake of action leads to nothing—this older woman wants results, not excitement.

Danae’s journey, as she grows from an innocent princess to the wealthy respected mother of a hero, depicts the power of the suit of coins to transform lives.
Princess Danae represents the fecund Princess of Coins. As the lover of Zeus and mother of Perseus, Danae exemplifies the ability to make the best of what life brings us.
As she looks within herself, the Princess of Coins is satisfied with all the world offers her.
She is also pregnant, symbolizing wonderful possibilities held within herself.

MEANINGS:

These forces may be internalized or personified in a situation. Tame them—-you have the strength!

Card 9 symbolizes your hopes or fears: ---- Queen of Arrows
In The Lover’s Path Tarot, the suit of arrows is associated with Cupid and Psyche, represented upon Awakening (XIX),
the twentieth of the twenty-two major arcana cards. The myth of Cupid and Psyche depicts how love grants wisdom.
Love changes us, just as Cupid’s magical arrows change all who are struck by them. They prick our consciousness into awakening.
The goddess Venus, mother of Cupid, represents the brilliant Queen of Arrows.
Though Venus loved many, only the mortal Adonis was able to break her heart.
This loss, painful as it was, granted the goddess a wisdom greater than beauty.
Cleverest of all when it comes to affairs of the heart, the Queen of Arrows should be treated with great respect.
She fully understands the complexities of human nature under every situation.
She also knows that this education can only be obtained through experiences both sweet and sour.
This worldly view of hers may make her impatient with those less experienced.
However, if approached correctly, the Queen of Arrows will generously share her wisdom, using her arrows to tell it like it is.
MEANING:
Perfect understanding. The ability to clarify through language.
Brilliance in writing, speaking, or anything else transmitted with words. An older woman who has these qualities

Card 10 suggests an overview: ---- Grace
LOVERS:
Dante and Beatrice
Beatrice’s presence made such an impression on Dante that he felt as though his spirit had been infused with light.
He was convinced that she was truly an angel and was unable to speak to her when they met.
Since he said nothing, Beatrice did not suspect Dante’s love.
Soon after she wedded another, the anguished Dante had an inspiring dream and awoke resolved.
His love for Beatrice would be no earthly passion to expire when they died.
Instead, he would immortalize Beatrice with poems that would last forever.
MEANINGS:
Love that inspires us and inspires others. Turning dreams into reality.
Success, good fortune,creativity. All is well with the world;
your highest hopes are supported by the universe.
Any feelings of insecurity and unworthiness are to be banished from your thoughts.

What Covers You
The general theme, situation or question, the heart of the matter, what is going on inside of you.
Knight of Wands
Briefly: An indication of the arrival of someone important coming into your life.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card is of a man on a horse swiftly charging through the day with fearless abandon. He has a mission and knows exactly where he is going. Sometimes this card can indicate the arrival of someone important coming into your life, or it can signal the hasty departure of someone from your life. If you are expecting someone to arrive, they will do so very quickly. If you sense that someone wants out, they will leave just as quickly. This can also signal some type of emergency, though not necessarily too serious of an event that has speeded up. Perhaps someone is admitted to hospital and you have to get there quickly. There is unlikely to be any serious problems stem from this event, just that the matter had to be dealt with as soon as possible, without any delays, such as an appendix attack, for example. If you are single, it can mean your next lover is just around the corner and you will find this person to be very warm and responsible. He or she may be born under an Earth sign, such as Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn.
What Crosses You
This card is placed over the 1st card and magnifies the forces at work for this question, the card can therefore be a positive sign or one requiring more work or opposing forces. Also a contrary element, source of resistance, balancing tendency, factor for change, something unpredictable, what is rocking the boat, supporting feature, opposing factor.
Two of Cups
Briefly: Perhaps a new love is going to appear and involve some long-range commitment for you, the birth of a child or new found love.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card shows a man and a woman looking at each other and each one has a cup in the left hand and they are making a toast. There are some heavy black clouds in the background and these may indicate a period of time, such as further in the distance, or in the past. Perhaps a new love is going to appear and involve some long-range commitment for you. The number two can represent time as in days, weeks or months and this may indicate when the encounter will take place. The woman may also become pregnant early on in the relationship, or if a married couple have been trying and this has been delayed or hindered in some way, now it may eventuate. Also there can be a celebration of some kind and this of course could indicate the celebration of the birth of a child. If you are single and looking for romance, then it may be on its way and you could find this person proves to be your soulmate.
What Is Beneath You
The foundations to this situation or the source of the problem, why things are as they are, soul purpose, what is really going on, hidden influence, starting point, deeper meaning.
The Magician
Briefly: Unusual magical powers that has the ability to bring you anything that your heart desires.
Full Meaning:
This is a card of unusual magical powers that has the ability to bring you anything that your heart desires. You only have to wish for something and it is right there in front of you. You may need to be highly discriminating lest you wish for the wrong thing, person or job or whatever, because once possessed, it may no longer be desired. Events seem to unfold at a rapid pace with this card and you may find some difficulty keeping up with the speed with which changes occur in your affairs and situations. Many decisions will need to be made during this time and it is up to you whether you adapt and go with the flow as many of your choices now will put you on a new path and then you will enjoy many new and different life experiences.
The Magician can do anything. The Magician can have any position he wants, the person he desires or anything his imagination can conjure up. If he wishes to be the President of a country or the Prime Minister of a country, he can do that. All he has to do is desire it and wish for it and make it happen. If he seeks the most desired woman in the land, he can have her, marry her, have children with her. Nothing is beyond his power, which has no boundaries and no limitations. He can have wealth, title, power, prestige, love, glory, fame, anything at all that he wants or feels he needs. He has mystical and magical qualities and a power that is so subtle, it sometimes appears to go undetected. His powerful abilities are beyond comprehension and understanding by the average human being. He is unfathomable, unreachable, unless he wants you closer by his side.
If this card should represent you, then you are being made aware of what your real and true talents are and that this is a favourable time to pursue your dreams.
Should this card represent someone else, it may be wise to consider what it is that this person wants from you. Do they want you in their life, or out of their life. It is their wish that will come true, not yours, unless you too are also a Magician.
What Is Behind You
What has just past, the influences that are passing away. Also resolved factors, a quality to let go, fading concern, taken care of, no longer useful.
Eight of Cups
Briefly: There are things and situations to ponder over and a time of solitude is required before a decision has to be made.
Full Meaning: This card shows a person with a hooded cloak walking with a staff near an inlet that is surrounded by tall cliffs. You cannot see the person's face as they have their back to you. In the background is a crescent Moon. It appears to be either early morning or early evening. There are eight cups in the foreground. This is symbolic of being in a reflective state of mind. There are things and situations to ponder over and a time of solitude is required before a decision has to be made. If you draw this card you either live in a setting like this or it is not far from your home. Or perhaps you are considering moving to a seaside resort area at some point in the not too distant future. This can be a time when you choose a different course of action that puts you where you are destined to be. It is also time to consider bringing in some newness into your life and leaving the past where it belongs, in the past.
What Crowns You
Current situation and influences. Influences that are to come, conscious influence, goal or purpose, what you accept as true, what you intend to achieve, expectations, what you 'think' will happen.
Four of Swords
Briefly: It is time to take a rest, have a break, maybe have a holiday or in some other way remove yourself from current pressures.
Full Meaning: Initially when you draw this card, it is telling you to take a rest, have a break, maybe have a holiday or in some other way remove yourself from current pressures. You may be run-down, tired, and now it is time to be a little contemplative and to take it easy for awhile. The daily routine has become too demanding or even mundane and you need a change, any change will do. If you have been feeling unwell, it may be time to consult a doctor, a surgeon or even a dentist. Often it can indicate needing an injection, or cutting implements may be needed, as in surgery of some kind, or medications. This is a good time to start looking after yourself, and protecting yourself against such things as getting an infection or fever. Antibiotics may be needed or a tonic or some vitamins. Some people just need to get more sleep or rest. Your lungs may need attention at this time or you are experiencing some type of respiratory problem. If this is the case, then seek help in the early stages to avoid any long-term health problem and your recovery will be quick.
What Is Before You
What will happen in the very near future if you continue on the current path. Immediate future, approaching influence, feature gaining importance, still pending, to be taken care of, factor to be welcomed.
Ace of Swords
Briefly: Broaden your horizons and make sweeping changes. Your future is about to move ahead in many and varied ways.
Full Meaning: When you draw this card, you are being given the urge to broaden your horizons and make sweeping changes. Your future is about to move ahead in many and varied ways. This card cuts aside those things and people that you no longer need or are relevant to your life.
This can also too be a fertility card, so if you are seeking to bring a new baby into the world, this can help to manifest it.
It is possible that you may feel like making a new beginning in your life and starting over.
You could move house, change jobs, get married or have a new baby arrive. Whichever you choose, it will be a welcome change and one that will require additional energy on your part, however you will more than adequately meet the new challenge.
Physically, it could mean that an operation is imminent, and that your health is undergoing some changes. It is possible that something has to be removed, whether that be a tooth or other body part, and it may be replaced with an artificial part. This gives the ability to recover quickly and to get on with the rest of your life.
You may also be undergoing major psychological changes where you are feeling more confident and outgoing. You may start becoming more ambitious or self-motivated and ready to take on new challenges and dare to do more than you have ever done before. Luck is on your side.
Your Self
You are you are, as you could be, how you see yourself, talent or ability you can use, goal for yourself, public face, how you think you should be, self image, sense of where you are, how you limit yourself.
The Emperor
Briefly: A man of power who tries to bring balance and order to his business activities. He is highly focussed on building a business or empire and seeing to it that things run like clockwork - more family time is indicated.
Full Meaning:
He is a man of power who tries to bring balance and order to his business activities. He is highly focussed on building a business or empire and seeing to it that things run like clockwork. He may be the director of CEO or General Manager of a large corporation. His role there is of great importance as he is a man who knows what he is doing. He is exceptionally business minded and goal orientated.
He always achieves what he sets out to do. He is fixed in his opinions and refuses to budge once he has made up his mind. He is steadfast and loyal. He does not like deceit in any form. He has high principles and is considered a man of integrity by his employees and friends.
The Emperor can be a formidable opponent as he fights to the death. Has courage and tenacity and little beats him down. He is a man who needs financial security and will work long and hard if necessary to achieve this. His focus on business matters is just about all consuming for him, although he does like family life and will generally seek a wife to stand by his side.
He understands the need for close family bonding and love. He makes a good husband and father to his children. He would instil respect in his children and hep them to understand why he is not always there at home. He expects that his wife will provide his needs and also most of the needs of their children.
His goal is to maintain financial security and independence and he insists on instilling these qualities in his children. He is not into frivolity or wasting time, though he does occasionally find some peace in solitude, when he can contemplate the meaning of his life. Very little ruffles the Emperor's feathers. He is stable, secure and confident in his approach to life.
If you are a young man and this card appears, it could be showing you where you will be in 10 or 20 years from now. The card is encouraging you to seek your financial independence and follow your dreams. This card, if not you, could represent your father or your boss or other influential male in your life.
If you are a female, this too could be your father or your boss, or your future partner in life. You can expect that if he becomes your friend and then your lover, he will eventually be your husband or partner for life.
If you are a male and over 40, this card may very well represent yourself and it is time to acknowledge where you are on your life's path and perhaps now take time out to relax a little, maybe take the family on an extended overseas holiday and just unwind for awhile. The world won't stop turning if you take leave from your working responsibilities and spend some time with your loved ones, who probably would really appreciate being around you at this time.
Around You
Opinions and influences of friends and family about the matter in question. What others think of the situation, another point of view, as others see you, atmosphere, other persons point of view, what others want from you, what another thinks you should do.
Ten of Pentacles
Briefly: A blessed union, one full of love and caring.
Full Meaning: The picture on this card shows a couple, a man and a woman, under an archway. They are looking at each other very affectionately. Beside them a young child stays close to the woman. In the foreground of this picture sits an older, wiser male, his years have caught up with him and now he sits and watches all that he has acheived. He is at peace, his family surrounds him and his wealth is evident. He has and still commands much respect as is shown by the two dogs eagerly awaiting his attention. If you are currently single, you may be about to become attached, as in meeting the person you will eventually marry, or actually tying the knot very soon if you are engaged. This will be a blessed union, one full of love and caring. There may also be some financial benefits of mutual sharing coming up in the very near future. It may very well be that your either your close or extended family comes in to assist you start your own venture. If you are currently not particularly financial, your future security is near at hand, and this may come about via any means, such as a windfall, inheritance or the benefit of shared resources.
Hopes and Fears
our own hopes and ideals on the matter, aspirations and ideas of success, guidance, key factors, overlooked factor, what you might do, how to proceed, how you can make a change, ward of warning, truth of the matter, honest assessment, something you haven't considered. element of surprise, missing piece of the puzzle.
Two of Swords
Briefly: There are decisions to be made.
Full Meaning: To draw this card shows that there are decisions to be made. However all the facts may not be in at this point in time. There could be something about to crop up that you are not aware of and it may come to light later. Often something is not seen in the clear light of day or there is an unknown factor involved. Time is often of the essence and it is usually worth waiting it out for awhile to see what may arise to clarify the issue. Making a decision with all the facts is much easier than with only half the information.
Sometimes this card can indicate a problem with the eyes. Maybe an operation will be required, an injury may occur, or glasses need to be prescribed, or new glasses or some other matter involving the eyesight.
If this card is not you, or is unlikely to represent any situation directly involving you, then it is possible that it may relate to someone close to you. They may need your insight, or wisdom to help them sort out a dilemma they are in. There may be a situation where someone has to choose between two differing options and is not sure which is the most appropriate one to select.
Outcome
This card tells what the overall final outcome if the current path continues. Consider the influence of all previous cards, particularly the 6th (what is before you) card, which is a more short term representation of the final outcome. How the situation will be resolved, lesson you will learn, what others may do, improvement that will occur.
The Fool
Briefly: Journey of unique and unknown destination. Innocent of life and will have to learn by his own mistakes. He is a wanderer, with great enthusiasm for life and for love.
Full Meaning: This card shows a picture of a young man walking towards a cliff edge, with a long rod leaning over his shoulder. On the end of the rod there appears to be a handkerchief holding all of his worldly possessions. Following beside him is a small white dog. He is almost oblivious to what pitfalls may lay before him. He is on a, a journey of discovery. He is almost like a tourist, as he looks right, left, above and below to anything that catches his eye. He is curious and adventurous. He wants to know everything and is keen to look, learn and discover whatever life is going to teach him. He is innocent of life and will probably make many mistakes along the way. He is a student of life and will have to learn by his own mistakes. He is a wanderer, with great enthusiasm for life and for love. He is young and open-minded, with a desire to have many new and varied experiences so that he can get a taste for life and decide what it is that he really wants. He does not yet know what the world will bring, nor what his unique destiny is, but he will soon find out.

What Covers You
The general theme, situation or question, the heart of the matter, what is going on inside of you.
Six of Wands
Full Meaning: Some keywords marching from the six of wands Tarot card meaning:
* Grace
* Pride
* Power
* Honor
* Action
* Victory
* Triumph
* Liberation
* Leadership
* Motivation
* Facilitation
* Vindication
* Illumination
With its bold messages of triumph and victory, the six of wands Tarot card meaning also hints admonishment at loosing sight of our vision in the midst of our successes.
Clearly, we've ascended the conflicting din expressed in the five of rods, and mounted a sure footed campaign. Further, that campaign is met with the support from the majority, and the card indicates our cause (along with our confidence) is greatly bolstered as we swagger into our purpose in full pomp and regalia.
The six of wands reflects this kind of cocky scenario with its use of specific imagery. I'll touch on these symbolic images in the symbol section below, but to elaborate:

The horse makes its first appearance in the Chariot card. From that point on, the horse always heeds the fevered battle cries from the charioteer calling for action, response, and high-speed drive. But more importantly, the horse is a magnificently intelligent beast and arguably the single-most influential contributor in mankind's civilization. Why? Because of a unique companionship required between man and nature to facilitate results, productivity and forward motion. The horse invites us to consider this concept of facilitation and partnership as we dwell on the six of wands Tarot card meaning in our readings.
Eyes:
I love the subtle use of "eye-language" in this card. In the Rider version (far right in the card trio above) you can't mistake the hint of distain in the horse's sideways glance at his rider. I can almost hear the horse saying "I can't believe these people are cheering for this putz." In other renditions we can ponder the eyes of the rider which are usually shown half open or half concealed. We get the sense of knowing only half the story of the hero's ascent to this victorious celebration. If the eyes are indeed the messengers of the soul, we have to ask ourselves: Can we keep our eyes affixed on the nobility of our cause without succumbing to the trappings of fame and adoration? Or, is the rider shading his eyes because of compromises in integrity on the way to achievement?
Hands:
Note the right hand (symbolic of action) firmly grips one of the six rods. This is iconic of acting on a singular creative idea. Which is fine, we've worked our way through the suit of wands to come to this singular focus. But what's the left (passive, intuitive) hand doing? It's left ominously understated and often not depicted at all in many decks. The Waite version shows the left hand leading the horse, which would be counter-intuitive (an active hand would be used for navigation, and the intuitive hand would lend faith to see creative passions to their reality). When the left hand is omitted from imagery altogether we have real problems. It suggests neglect in factoring in the intangibles of faith and belief in reaching our goals.
Am I picking at petty details? Perhaps. And I don't want to demean the obvious message of triumph in the card. However, these details will come to bear relevance in future cards as we see a possible backfire in the seven of rods.
In short, the six of wands encourages our exuberance as we meet with support and accolades in our creative vision. We'll just want to be aware of potential diverging thoughts in our readings so we may steer our horse back to our ?true north? if the occassion merits.
More symbolism parading in the six of wands Tarot card meaning:
Horse: Featured on all the knight cards of the Tarot, the horse symbol meanings deal with strength, motion, action, and vitality. Linked in many ancient traditions with the four elements (each leg of the horse representing fire, water, earth, air) the horse is also a strong spiritual symbol and an emblem of incorporating all the elements to maintain an equal, powerful balance with all things in the universe. This is evident in the "either/or" nature of the knights. In a more mundane sense, the horse is predispositioned to have a charging nature. In a reading, this gives us pause to consider where we are charging to and why. In the six of wands, we may also be "sitting on our high horse," placing pride too high on our list of priorities.
Wreath: Typically wreaths of laurel are depicted on cards suggesting accomplishment or choosing high ideals over trivialities. Wreaths have long been a symbol of victory ever since the first ancient games upon mount Olympus where the victor was crowned in laurels (hence the term "resting on his laurels" comes when one relies on his/her credentials rather than further drive/action). A sweet smelling laurel wreath is also a symbol of protection, peace and purification and is associated with the god Apollo. It is a message that the favor of the Gods is upon us, and that we shall be the victor in this stage of our lives.
Armor: Only in certain deck versions (like the Morgan-Greer shown in the center of the card trio above), the symbolic meanings of armor deal with protection, preparation, and strength. Most Tarot deck renditions depict all the knights in full armor (knights typically represents action and strength). The armor indicates a need to protect ourselves when engaging in activities referenced in a reading.
Questions to illuminate our understanding of the six of wands Tarot card meaning:
Can I maturely handle public acclaim and success?
Now that I've reached a zenith, what's my next step?
Am I recognizing partnerships that have facilitated my success?
Positive recognition from others is great, but am I still letting my inner voice take the lead in my decisions?
What is my guiding force?
Am I prepared for the responsibility this public success and exposure implies?

"I am the King of Pentacles and this is my legend.
My kingdom is at its peak of accomplishment. We live well, but it was not always the case. It took a great deal of planning, determination and hard work to get to our current state of satisfaction.
That is why I the successful and effective King of Pentacles. I believe in obtaining goals by persistence. I am methodical and gain progress one step at a time. Because of my sturdy, steadfast ways, everyone in my kingdom now enjoys a life of plenty.
This pragmatism is probably why I'm gifted in business and finance. I have a knack with money, and I tend to accumulate riches easily. As the King of Pentacles, all the other kings are often seeking me out for funding. Mine is the richest kingdom in the Tarot.
When I am not tending to matters of state, I bask in the glory of nature. I am a gentleman farmer (I don't have to tend to my vineyards for profit, but I fuss over them anyway because I enjoy it), and am often found deep in thought while strolling the fields. I also enjoy hunting and fishing with my son (the Knight of Pentacles).
My son and I are very much alike in our ways. He is pragmatic as I am, and this is why we work well together for the common goal of insuring the bounty of our kingdom. My other child (the Page of Pentacles) do not have the same strength in our relationship. This child tends to be emotional, and I feel as though I am being watched when I am around my youngest. If I do not understand something, or someone, I tend to avoid them.
I adore my wife, and shower her with every treasure my kingdom can provide. I love to see her dressed to the hilt, and covered in refinery. I appreciate how she cares for me and our children. Even if I were not king, she makes me feel like one, and I love her dearly for this. She is a sensual woman, fertile and earthy; I find this to be enchanting. Further, she allows me to explore the realms of arousal; this is good because I have a healthy sexual appetite.
I enjoy stability, and have no problem with the responsibility of family and reign. As the King of Pentacles my obligations are infinite. But, I have broad shoulders, and can bear the weight.
I am usually slow to anger, but when I'm pushed to my limit I can be explosive. When I've reached this point, there is no return and it's my way or the highway. I'll eventually calm down, but not without significant brooding (usually by myself so I can methodically consider the situation).
Like my son the Knight, I am very protective of my family and kingdom. I have fortified our borders, and keep a close watch on potential threats on the horizon. Nothing is more important than the safety of my inner sanctum.
I can be stubborn, controlling and overbearing too. I tend to take on all the responsibility, and do not delegate tasks well (because I am quite sure no one can do things as well as I can). I recognize this tendency for me to be headstrong, and it takes persistence, over a long period of time for others to persuade me or change my mind.
My wife says I am strong as a bull, virile and handsome. I keep myself groomed, and I have good taste in clothing. This, probably more than anything else, is why she sees me as attractive. My complexion is dark as are my eyes and hair. My most outstanding traits is my big strong hands, my barrel chest, and I have a stone-block jaw.
When I show up in the cards, I will tell you to enjoy the finer things in life. I will also redirect your attention to matters of business and finance. I will remind you of your enterprising spirit. I will encourage you to make a water-proof plan for your success and urge you to follow that plan point-by-point until you reach victory."
Some symbols in the King of Pentacles Tarot card:
Bull: The Bull is a symbol of power, royalty, stability, force and potence. When we see the bull amongst the cards in a reading we know we are dealing with some powerful forces. It is shown in the World & Wheel card because the bull (Taurus) is one of the fixed signs of the zodiac. The bull (and Taurus) in the King of Pentacles Tarot card also carries symbolic meanings of resistence to change, being stubborn and inflexible. Toro!
Castle: Castle symbol meanings deal with goals. Castles are physical reprsentations of our need to build (block by block) upon a strong foundation in order to obtain our goals. Castles may also deal with sheltering ourselves or limiting ourselves from reaching our goals. They are also a symbol of obtaining our desires. See also the "tower" symbol meaning.
Flowers: As we would guess, flowers possess symbol meanings of joy, beauty, growth, sensitivity and unfolding. They are predominant features on the six of cups and four of rods, but they are seen sprinkled throughout many deck renditions (see also the Sunflower symbol meanings entry). Flowers are all about opening up and receiving the light of love, joy and compassion into our lives. In the King of Pentacles card, they remind us of the better things in life, the good times, the sweet smell of success. They also ask us to see the beauty that surrounds us if only we open up to its presence.
Globes: Often depicted as the world, globes possess symbol meanings of totality - both cosmic and physical. When the globe catches our attention on a card, it is an indication that achievement is imminent; we have the whole world "at our fingertips." It is also a symbol of comprehension, getting the idea - or grasping the "bigger picture." The globe is also a geometric aspect of the circle which deals with infinity, completion, cycles, and again - totality.
Grapes/Grapevines: Symbol meanings of grapes and grapevines deal with fertility, abundance, transformation and blessing. Considered the fruit of the earth in both pagan and Christian circles, the grape is rich in symbolism. Bunches of grapes have long been depicted in funerary art and are symbols of redemption. Grapes and grapevines are also found in Greco-Roman art as symbols of hospitality, bounty and symbolic of youthfulness. All of these attributes come into play when we see these power-packed fruits in the cards.
Yellow: The color yellow is symbolic of intelligence as well as cheer, satisfaction and all-around contentment. Corresponding with the Manipura chakra, also known as the solar plexus chakra, yellow is an anchoring hue dealing with core issues in our lives. That which is at our emotional center is worth paying attention to. In the nine of cups, yellow represents our emotional well-being as the King of Pentacles encourages.
Some questions the King of Pentacles asks us:
Are your ready to get serious about your business?
Take a look at my opulence and success. Dreaming about it didn't make it happen. Get serious about your expectations and start doing the work.
Do you have a plan?
Sure and steady is the way. Map out a strategy for your success and stick to it.
How do you spell relief?
If you are like me, spending so much time on protecting my assets and procuring more, it's easy to forget recreation. Take time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Indulge when appropriate.

The Two of Cups speak of emotional engagements. These may be in the form of deep connections made with our lovers, friends, family, partners, or co-workers.
To be sure, these connections are complimentary as if two halves are coming together to form a perfect union.
This coming together is a new beginning and one filled with promise, hope and trust. There is a prickling at the back of our neck at the freshness and vitality a new relationship brings us. There is an intensity of our focus upon the sparkly energy of high emotion as we connect more deeply with our unifying contra.
There is also a sense of vulnerability here - as if we have to remove a mask in order to tap into that promising union the Two of Cups represent. All bets are off, we must be at our most exposed in order to reap the fullest benefit of this new connection with another or ourselves.
On an esoteric level, this card is also symbolic of bringing together the dualistic nature of self into a harmonized whole.

"I am the King of Cups and this is my legacy.
I am a consummate communicator, and I built my kingdom on a foundation of intelligent discernment. A natural humanitarian, I can easily relate to people of all classes and races.
This ability to relate and understand people comes from an uncanny ability to listen. I've been told I have a fatherly way about me in that people are comfortable in telling me their life story. This speaks volumes, as a man of my high stature can be very intimidating. Nevertheless, they open their hearts to me, and I value the candor and trust they place in me.
My forte in verbal exchange enables me to be a true diplomat too. I am most effective as an ambassador for my kingdom. I am the most traveled of all the kings in the Tarot. I enjoy travel, but most favorable is joining forces with foreign lands.
Learning ways of foreign cultures is highly engaging for me. Indeed, I carry many foreign customs back to my home country with a goal to diversify my own people. I believe in broadening minds and expanding horizons.
To wit, I establish higher learning in my kingdom. I endorse educational programs and encourage everyone (men, women and children) to participate in continued learning.
I am also a religious man, and as the King of Cups, I promote spiritual education too. I believe everyone should have an equal sampling of religion, science and philosophy. I work very hard to make these things available to every one no matter what their economic status.
My suit is water, so I am emotionally intuitive, yet my station as King is air-bound which dwells in the realm of thought. This gives me an advanced edge because I can effortlessly communicate the intuitive perceptions I receive.
I am an eloquent speaker, writer and I even express my philosophical perspectives in art too. Although, I am not in a position to nurture my artistic side as much as I would desire. More appropriately, I devote much attention to studying the fine arts. I have a savvy eye for classic design, art and style. I promote many arts programs in my kingdom too.
I sit on a foundational throne in the center of the ocean, which gives testimony to my exclusivity in communicative, intuitive realms. Further, my stone island in the sea is symbolic of my solid rock ability to discriminate the truth from the babble that is uttered from the collective consciousness.
As the King of Cups, I am psychically perceptive, and can hear all kinds of verbiage. I sit on a foundation of keen intellect and strong-willed determination to trust intellect over unreliable sources.
Arthurian lore draws a connection to me, the King of Cups and the Fisher King. Indeed, my son, the Knight of Cups is likened to Perceval whom the Fisher King engages in the story of the quest for the Holy Grail. I can see where similarities can be drawn.
The most important connection with this legend and myself is that I do protect something unfathomably priceless. The grail as it is manifested in my wife, the Queen of Cups. She is my highest advisor, more psychic than anyone in my realm. I trust her implicitly, she is my secret weapon and foretells of many an event. She is the grail of life and the connection to all things unseen. I devote my life first to my Queen, then to my kingdom.
I'm fastidious about my appearance. As a diplomat, it's important for the King of Cups to maintain a polished appearance. I have brownish hair, cut short and well tended. My eyes are most noted for their crispness more than color, but they are light and bluish like the seas of my homeland. There is something about my presence that is authoritative. I hold myself as if I am always in control. This is a quality that goes beyond the realm of kingship.
When I appear to you in the cards, I will encourage you to be a leader, to be the voice of your own people. But I will tell you in order to be a strong voice in a sea of opinions, you must first listen to for the people's needs. Let both intellect, compassion and intuition be your guide as you serve as an ambassador for the greatest good of your tribe."
Some symbols from the King of Cups:
Fish: It is no coincidence that the fish is featured on all the cups court cards because fish symbol meanings deal with emotion, intuition and creativity. When considering the fish symbol meaning, we must first recognize the nature of the water in which it lives: in motion, unpredictable, and representative of the subconscious (as symbolic of water). The fish is a symbol of prolific abundance if we have the wherewithal to harness our own passion responsibly.
Ocean: Ocean symbol meanings deal with infinite possibilities. Consider the ocean, and you will be considering the essence of vastness, mystery, and depth. It seems in exhaustible and the holder of wonderous things unseen. When the oceans in the King of Cups crash their waves against our consciousness, it is time to pay homage to the great divine - meaning we should recognize the burgeoning power around us, the animating force that runs through us - the expansive and expressive nature of the universe. In other words, we must acknowledge that there may be other (higher) powers at work in our lives and it may be time to release our control in order to allow these powers to open up incredible opportunities to us.
Ship: Yes, of course ship symbol meanings deal with travel and journey's. However a commonly overlooked factor is the medium upon which they said - water - it deals with the deeper levels of the psyche and the subconscious. This is particularly the case with the King of Cups. When Ships sail across your vision in a reading, take into consideration where your thoughts (psyche) are traveling - what kind of baggage (cargo) are you carrying around, and are you charting (navigating) out the best course for your thoughts and emotions?
Some questions the King of Cups asks:
Is it time for continued education?
I promote constant learning, especially in the arts, sciences and religion. When I show up in the cards, I will ask you to study the classics to enhance your perspective.
How are you at negotiations?
As a natural diplomat and negotiator, you have to think sharp, and also observe every nuance of your opponent or partner. Study more about me and other famous negotiators if you feel wary about your task of finessing your needs in a meeting.
How do you feel about leadership?
Whether you lead in the role as a father, mother, president or even being a spiritual leader, there are many things to consider. Foremost, the cornerstones of my leadership as king is faith and compassion.
What Crowns You
Current situation and influences. Influences that are to come, conscious influence, goal or purpose, what you accept as true, what you intend to achieve, expectations, what you 'think' will happen.
Temperance
Full Meaning: Key Words for the Temperance Tarot Card Meanings
* Merging
* Balance
* Healing
* Blending
* Connection
* Chemistry
* Fluidity
* Moderation
So many of the Tarot cards (seemingly all of them to one extent or another), deal with balance and its importance in our lives. Yes, certainly the Temperance Tarot card meanings are about balance. But there's more to it than that.
We have to be thoughtful in our appproach to this card because its meaning won't hit us over the head like a ton of bricks. Rather, it's a subtle card that whispers in our ear "come closer."
As we lean in closer to hear with our spiritual ears exactly what Temperance has to say - we find we aren't listening for words at all. What we hear is the tranquil waters running through our spirits. These are cleansing rivers that run through our energies, providing us with peace and healing. Imagine you are diving into the these crystal clear waters. Diving in is an act of connecting to our source and by connecting we find rejuvination in the rhythmic flow of healing waters moving through us. Mesmorizing, isn't it?
There is a lot of power in this card, and the "flow" is the source of that power. The Temperance card is a call for us to recognize the flow in our own lives, and observe the nature of energy. When we pull this card in a reading it is an indication that a healing is in need or is taking place. It is also a sign that subtle shifts are or need to take place in order to gain that peaceful scene we see pictured in this card.
When we quietly and objectively investigate our life's path we begin to see patterns. Temperance encourages us to take these patterns and find a good balance in our lives. Envision the flowing waters of this card and see all the imbalance drifting away in your life. When moderation is put into play, and we connect with a natural flow, then healing begins to occur at all levels.
The keyword chemistry is included here because Temperance deals with mixing the right ingredients in our lives in order to flow easily upon the path of our choosing. It takes a little time to balance the load just right, but once we do we experience some tremendous breakthroughs in our progress.
On a more day-to-day level the Temperance card often indicates a commitment to sobriety, a healing taking place, a need for emotional stability, and a need for self-love. Very often spiritual seekers will pull this card as a promise of new growth after they've experienced spiritual "drought."
Key Symbols Relative to Temperance Tarot Card Meanings:
This section focuses in on a few select symbols that can help us further define the Temperance Tarot card meanings.
Cups: The cups transferring the waters here are a symbol of finding the right mix, keeping in motion, and going with the flow. The cups and the water have also been thought as a biblical symbol reminiscent of Christ turning water into wine. The symbolism here is that we are able to transform any situation into something different by our tempering our thoughts and actions in such a way as to bring about the results we desire.
Feet: Feet are symbolic of a pilgrimage, and make reference to our spiritual walk. The right foot (consciousness) is dipped into the water which is symbolic of the subconscious. This is a signal that our analytical minds need to be hushed for a bit. The left foot (unconsciousness) is settled on land which is a signal to ground ourselves. Again - this card is all about balance. As we align our mind, body and spirit we begin to see amazing results in our lives.
Triangle: In Ancient Egypt the Triangle was seen as a symbol of intelligence and indicated the capacity for love. The Buddhists utilze this geometric pattern in the Sri Yantra mandala as a tool to invoke the energy of love. The triangle also deals with the love represented in the mother, father, child union as well as the holy trinity. As mentioned earlier, as a graphic representation of an inverted triangle, it symbolizes a vessel in which love is poured or carried. Additionally, this symbol has long been recognized as a sign of balance and creativity.

Line up each suit in chronological order and you'll get a story.
To get a better story of the four of pentacles we back up one chapter. The third pentacle card points out our tremendous commitment to hard work at our craft and/or forging our will.
In fact, we worked so hard that we've manifested some pretty lucrative rewards. The four of pentacles reflects our success and just rewards for all our efforts. At last, we are in the money, in the pink, high on the hill. What's more, we have only ourselves and our own ingenuity to thank for our success.
Or do we?
Our hero isn't smiling, and there's a sense of isolation from community in the card. It's a common trap that many well-meaning, ambitious entrepreneurs or hard-focused individuals fall into.
To be successful, we often need to put blinders on and focus on only the path that leads to results. There's nothing wrong with this, as long as we don't neglect the community we support, and who supports us in return.
In the three of pentacles, we see open communication with that community but somewhere along the way we closed off that correspondence. Ideally, our motivations for success include the well-being of everyone involved. But during months and years of hardnosed focus on the prize, sometimes we lose sight of the needs of the tribe.
When the four of pentacles comes up in a reading we know we've been stingy with our time, or money, and our presence in the lives of those around us. No need to have guilt; it happens.
Just break the wall of isolation and get the flow going again in your life by giving equal or more than what you've received. Remember, this is an inclusive universe. By giving openly, honestly, you're insuring your perpetual gain.
Some Symbols Enhancing the Four of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning:
City/Village: Cities and villages represent centers or gatherings of people, thoughts, energy and ideas. They are a symbol of the culmination of a group that meets for a common goal. They also symbolize protection, harmony, and team-work. When you notice the cities/villages in a reading it indicates a group effort is required, or the querent must tap into some energy centers or thought centers to accomplish what he/she must.
Walls: Simply put, walls deal with separating one area from another. Why we feel the need to separate oursevles might need to be considered. Walls also symbolize holding ourselves back, or positive events have been prevented from flowing forth due to negative, exclusions or incorrect thinking. When we see the brick wall it is a message we might need to get in a state of allowing in order for the good to shine upon us. It also indicates we mustn't hold ourselves back or sell ourselves short. See also the "wall" symbol meanings.
Some Questions the Four of Pentacles Proposes:
Where are my blockages?
Why am I withholding?
How do I feel about giving?
How do I feel about being of service?
Where is my focus, and do I need to readjust my vision?
Why do I feel isolated?
What is gained from separation?
How is hoarding my resources serving me?
Your Self

The Chariot
Full Meaning: Key Words for the Chariot Tarot Card Meanings
* Tact
* Skill
* Action
* Control
* Focused
* Driven
* Motion
* Balance
* Physicality
If you've done a little research on the art of chariot battle, you've observed that it takes a lot of skill, determination and control to manuever a chariot - particularly in the heat of battle. Imagine for a moment controlling two 1,000 pound horses while navigating direction all in the midst of the commotion, noise, and fervor of battle. It makes the head spin. Needless to say the Chariot represents tremendous focus and drive in order to accomplish the goal and win the battle.
An often over-looked item of chariot-battle is that the best plan of attack in a chariot is from the side. This was a common tactic for ancient chariot warriors and is mentioned here for its symbolic meaning. Coming upon our problems from the side - or a different angle will often give us the perspective we need to overcome the obstacle, or give us a different plan of attack for success.
Close your eyes and let your imagination wander to the days of when chariots were the ultimate form of transportation. Consider the skill, focus, balance and determination it would take for one to control that chariot. One false move at a high speed, and the chariot would easily topple. It was not a mode of transportation for the light-hearted. These are the attributes the Chariot card brings to a reading.
Often, the Chariot card shows up when there is an obsession about work, a question about goals, or an issue of over-achieving. When a person is obsessed with climbing the ladder of success - the Charioteer is the one cracking the whip behind the scenes.
The Chariot also embodies motion. Often we pull this card when we are traveling physically, or moving in an emotional direction. It's usually a fast motion too. If we want to get somewhere fast, or a quick change of pace is coming - most assuredly the Chariot will appear in the reading.
Key Symbols Relative to Chariot Tarot Card Meanings:
This section focuses in on a few select symbols that can help us further define the Chariot Tarot card meanings.
Crown: This deck version shows a crown of five pointed stars. These pentacles are symbolic of perfection and also indicate our Charioteer is at his physical peek of perfection. That he is wearing these stars as a crown indicates his thoughts are primarily upon the elements required to get the task at hand accomplished. His thoughts dwell upon his ability to perform to a high level in order to achieve his goals.
Horse: The horse is another symbol of physicality and vitality. The horse is linked with elemental and instinctual powers. They symbolize speed of thought, speed of deed, and speed of action. This horse symbol brings further attention on aspects of motion, transportion, and "reaching the destination" to the Tarot card meanings of the Chariot.
Moons: Moons also deal with motion, influence and development. This card depcts slivered moons on the Charioteer's shoulder and at that top of his staff. These are symbols that indicate we are often driven by unseen forces in matters of obtaining goals or striving for success. Although the Charioteer is very aware of elemental matters and matters of the soul - these moons indicate that more investigation must be made on his motives.
Key Questions:
When contemplating the Chariot Tarot card meaning, ask yourself the following questions:
What drives you?
What is your motiviation?
Are your goals reasonable? Obtainable?
What are you trying to control, and why?
Do you have the skills you need to succeed?
Can you try a different approach to reaching your goals?
What would you do if you had a sudden change in direction or location?
Around You
Opinions and influences of friends and family about the matter in question. What others think of the situation, another point of view, as others see you, atmosphere, other persons point of view, what others want from you, what another thinks you should do.

The imagery in the Three of Swords Tarot card conjures up some potentially disturbing feelings within us. These internal stirrings kick up within us because this card deals with the heart of the matter:
the focus of our attention,
the center of our desire,
the impetus for our motivation,
and that which is the center of our world.
Now we know why we squirm a bit when this card comes up in a reading. However, when we see the Three of Swords through eyes of honesty and embrace it as signal for us to wake up, pay attention and begin to candidly observe the inner-workings of our heart, we can use it's message to catapult us into a profound transformation.
The symbolic placement of the three swords reminds us of these spiritual trinity's The triune or trident concept is intriguing as we see this motif in all spiritual traditions. One such reflection of the triune is Shiva's trident (pitchfork). It is symbolic of the Hindu trinity: Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva (creator, preserver, destroyer - respectively).
Another symbolic representation of the triune is the Chrismon of Christian descent (which looks precisely like the sword formation in the Three of Swords card) indicating the trine combination of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
In this light, these swords hint to our ability to balance core and supporting beliefs leading to heartfelt breakthroughs in our lives. More succinctly, the veil of obscurity is pierced, and the heart of our desire is made manifest through our practice of living an observed, aware, and balanced life.
A few symbol meanings on for the Three of Sword card:
Heart: As one would assume, the heart has long been as symbol of love, joy, and affection. The heart is also a symbol of truth, courage and conscience. The symbolic heart is the center of existence - physically speaking it pumps out life to the rest of the body. When we note the heart in our readings we must be mindful of our own center, and what is at the center of our focus. We may also ask what we love most - that which is positive or negative.
Clouds: Clouds hold the symbol meaning of revelation. Consider out of the mists of our deepest thoughts suddenly an epiphany comes, a bright idea comes out from nowhere - this is the basic cloud symbol meaning. Depending on the card, clouds can also symbolize confusion or clouded judgment. Primarily, clouds represent higher thought and messages from the divine.
Some questions the Three of Swords asks of us:
How do I see clearly into the heart of the matter? What's the root of the conflict?
How can I integrate my supportive beliefs with more core in order to be free of limitation?
What truths am I holding apart from myself? What am I hiding from?
Am I being totally honest with myself about my situation and the people I am associating with?
What lesson does this pain hold for me?
Hopes and Fears
our own hopes and ideals on the matter, aspirations and ideas of success, guidance, key factors, overlooked factor, what you might do, how to proceed, how you can make a change, ward of warning, truth of the matter, honest assessment, something you haven't considered. element of surprise, missing piece of the puzzle.
Eight of Wands
Full Meaning: Some keywords pointing to eight of wands Tarot card meaning:
* Rest
* Wait
* Intuition
* Direction
* Indication
* Perspective
* Deliverance
* Reprioritizing
* Back to basics
* Getting a signal
* Environmental matters
* Going with the current
Like most Tarot practitioners, I find the absence of humanness in the eight of wands vastly intriguing. Indeed, it's the only card in the minor arcana that does not focus on the anima in some way (3 of swords comes close, but the focus on the heart keeps the 8 of rods exclusive in the claim).
Early Tarot decks depicted the minor numerical cards with only their suit symbols clumped on the card, excluding emotive elements altogether. See an example of this here. I wonder (along with other enthusiasts, I'm sure) why, out of all the minor number cards, the eight of wands was left essentially untouched and in its primitive state.
I translate the retention of original card imagery to mean a return to our personal integrity, and getting back to basics. As we've progressed through the story of the rods and the plight to "carry the torch" for our causes of passion and creation, the eight of wands is a pause on that path.
When I was a kid, my school executed regular fire drills in which a clever pneumonic was employed to save our skins in case we caught on fire (stay with me here). When this card shows up in a reading I often hear my old gym teacher bellowing "Stop! Drop! Roll!" in those unnerving fire drills.
When the eight of rods shows up in your readings, I invite you to do the same:
Stop:
Get quiet. Stop taking action. Reevaluate the situation. Those pastoral scenes in the card are an invitation to breathe deep and take in the magnificent bounty and beauty available to us if we would but stop to be aware of it.
Drop:
Hunker down deep into the recesses of your soul and rest in silence. Drop your consciousness into the endless, timeless nature that is both beginning and end. Those of you who meditate know what I mean by this. Dive deep into the well that is the Absolute and Infinite. Why? Because that is where we receive our next instruction; our next call to action.
Roll:
If we've stopped and dropped, we now know in what direction to roll. And, odds are, we'll be divinely guided to roll in the path of least resistance, leading to our best interests. Those tranquil waters running through the eight of wands indicate our best action is surrender to the pull of a higher current. It's a faith thing.
This grade school advice is made even more poignant when we consider the fire element inherent in the suit of wands. Closer inspection reveals this fire drill tactic may serve to snuff out other frenzied flames in our lives.
To summarize, the eight of wands Tarot card meaning is a big comma in the long sentence of our life. Take a breather, and wait for the next paragraph to write itself on the pages of your epic autobiography.
Side-note: The rods in this card can serve as an arrow. Pay special attention to the neighboring card at which the "arrows" are pointing. This card often works in conjunction with another, pointing out a need to take a sober look at an issue surfacing in your reading.
Another side-note: I also get clear, intuitive hits about ecological matters with this card. Other than the miniscule house in the background (which plays into the concept of tending to our Earth home), the absence of human influence in the card beckons the intuitive mind to consider our environment, ecology, bio-friendliness, and other hot green topics we face in our world today.
Some symbols babbling from the brook of the eight of wands:
Clouds: Clouds hold the symbol meaning of revelation. Consider out of the mists of our deepest thoughts suddenly an epiphany comes, a bright idea comes out from nowhere - this is the basic cloud symbol meaning. Depending on the card, clouds can also symbolize confusion or clouded judgment. Primarily, clouds represent higher thought and messages from the divine.
Earth: On some level, all threads of life are first woven with the fiber of Earth. This interconnectedness reminds us not only is the earth a stabilizing and a wholly physical symbol, it also represents a network. Earth is synonymous with belonging. She represents community and shared wisdom. Earth also embodies the concept of solid ground. We've released the limitations of the "small mind" and returned to the foundation our true nature.
House: In houses we live, die, play, cry, grow, hide, dream, the list goes on. As such, they are symbols of our deepest secrets and the tenderest parts of our hearts. House symbol meanings also deal with protection and the value we feel we must guard against theft. When houses jump up to our vision in a reading it may be a sign our security is threatened, or it may convey the opposite, and we should not be concerned with safety. We are already protected.
Mountains/Cliffs: Seen on many of the cards, mountain symbol meanings deal with triumph, challenge, attainment, and realization. Mountains also represent timelessness and an endurance that is infinite. When those mountains peak out of the cards into our attention, we may consider the vastness of our universe, and contemplate our place within it. We may also want to consider the heights to which we are climbing, and what the realization of our goals may mean for us and those around us.
Rivers, Streams, Waterfalls: Water is a symbol of emotion and the subconscious. Therefore, waterfalls deal with the constant running and flowing movement of our emotions and the stirring movements of our deeper minds. Observing the nature of rivers and waterfalls, we see they typically move at such a rushing speed that they tend to take everything with them in their path - rocks, trees, any debris in the midst of water's dominant path is subject to its pull. In the eight of wands Tarot card meaning, we are called to submit to that dominant pull and higher purpose.
Questions the eight of wands asks of us in a reading:
Am I moving with or against the natural current of my life?
What does the concept of surrender mean to me?
Is it time for a break?
What about a small vacation away from the bustle?
Is it time to reprioritize?
Do I need to refocus on family and home?
How can I get back to basics and still maintain the progress I've achieved up to this point?
To what is this card pointing?
What is the condition of my environment?
Outcome
This card tells what the overall final outcome if the current path continues. Consider the influence of all previous cards, particularly the 6th (what is before you) card, which is a more short term representation of the final outcome. How the situation will be resolved, lesson you will learn, what others may do, improvement that will occur.

If you ever put an obstacle in the middle of an ant trail, you’ll notice that ant will go over it, around it, or even under it—but ant will NOT let the obstacle drive him backwards. Above all, ant is a team player, and knows that if each member of the team does his assigned task, the team will succeed. Do you have goals that are best met by team effort?

The colours traditionally associated to this Archangel are purple and gold but I have been guided to use orange to represent the flames of the fire.
Orange is the colour of optimism, self- confidence, vitality and courage. Orange can help you move on from the past with courage to face the consequences. This colour will help you through the shock of grief, bereavement and loss, giving added strength and lasting peace.

ASHTAR
Channeled Through Janisel
My Dearest Friends.... I come to assure you that things are as they should be. There are great amounts of energy bombarding your Earth at this time and everything is being greatly accelerated. NOW is the time for 'focus'. You who are the bridges between Heaven and Earth are the 'hands and feet' of the Command, so to speak. It is through you that much of our work is done. As I said, much has been accelerated and, although we wish you to remain in a state of joy and lightheartedness, it is now time to put your 'work' in its proper perspective and concentrate on the mission at hand. We are working very diligently to gather the Lightworkers together in order to prepare the general population for what is to come.
This means that each and every one of you are needed at this time to make a commitment in your own heart as to what role you will play in this. In other words, it is time to get serious. We are not asking you to give your lives over to the Ashtar Command exclusively, for you each have many missions and sub-missions that you are here to accomplish. What we are asking, however, is that for those of you who feel your connection to us to band together, so to speak, in order to establish and implement certain 'activities' towards the goals which have been set before us. You have shown that you can do this numerous times, such as in the planting of the crystals and the activation of the grid. This was an excellent example of the Unity we wish for you to achieve, and our heartfelt thanks go to all of you who have participated in this project. Rest assured there will be other projects we will ask you to work on. For the time being, we are asking you to continue in this Unity, and stay focused on the tasks at hand.
Do not let yourselves become 'bogged down' in the mundane affairs of your day-to-day activities. We wish for those of you who are aligned with the Command and its work to use this wonderful email forum to interact with each other in manifesting this bond of Unity. You are held within the gentle hand of All That Is and encircled with the energy of Unconditional Love of such depths that your present consciousness can not truly comprehend its magnitude. We of the Command and the Spiritual Hierarchy are working most diligently to help you and all mankind reach their full potential. As a 'return energy exchange', we ask each of you to now search your hearts and decide what it is that you are capable and willing to do in partnership with us. For you see, we are truly in a partnership in which each and every one must play their part. NOW is the time to begin. NOW is the time to decide your focus.
NOW is the time to dedicate yourselves to the work at hand. We need your hands, we need your feet, we need your voice, we ask your commitment. To paraphrase the words of The Most Radiant One, spoken so long ago, "it is time to be about the Father's business". There is no longer the luxury of time to be spent in petty pursuits, bickering, judgment, or anger. Your time, which we have worked towards for eons, is at hand. Know that, even though you may not see us in your skies, we are most definitely close to you, and send you our deepest blessings and love.
Your Friend and Brother,
Ashtar

The basic intuitive health reading deals with understanding three different levels of cards. All cards, Ace through Ten, function elementally to reflect the severity of the plane. As previously stated, the center three cards deal with the heart. If the ‘Lower Arcana’ is present, Aces, Twos and Threes will reflect the attitude of the ego, subtle issues and the use of the subconscious whereas Fours, Fives and Sixes deal with a surrounding physical problem. Sevens, Eights, Nines and Tens identify the body in conflict, with Seven being mild and Ten being intense. The ‘Court Cards’ always reflect surrounding souls who are helping to create or affect change in the soul. There are no victims; these court cards specifically reflect friends, family and work associates who are in a person’s life to help create change. Kings and Queens represent parents and genetic traits or a boss who controls stages of the life. Princes and Princesses are friends and lovers.
Issues Affecting the Heart
The heart deals with all four elements in finite order. The emotional element of the heart is seen in Cups. The mental conflicts affecting the heart are in the Swords. Blood pressure and arterial blockage are shown in Pentacles and the Wands shows the actual condition of the heart versus physical conditioning. To help us understand exactly what is surrounding the complex heart, we will often see a ‘Major Arcana’ card. So let us review each trump card and how they depict the heart.
The Fool reflects that our basic guidance has been ignored and the ego has manifested control of many aspects of the heart.
The Magician reflects Mercury and the lack of learning, knowledge and appropriate levels of communication with proper understanding.
The High Priestess identifies that emotional issues are creating pressure.
The Empress identifies hormonal influences that are in disharmony.
The Emperor is the zodiac sign Aries and reflects issues that have not been self-realized and still lie outside conscious perception.
The Hierophant is the zodiac sign Taurus and indicates that possessions and material pressures such as career, debt obligations, unemployment, inheritance, and social status all play into the heart
.
The Lovers is the zodiac sign Gemini and in the heart area reflects an energy pattern that is off-path and divided
.
The Chariot is the zodiac sign Cancer and deals with too much fat in the blood and home pressure.
Strength is the zodiac sign Leo and for the heart area deals with self-esteem pressure and codependent issues in life
.
Hermit is the zodiac sign Virgo and reflects life patterns which are offensive to the health of the being.
The Wheel of Fortune is the planet Jupiter and specifically affects the heart through lack and the inability to manifest desired levels of existence.
Justice is the zodiac sign Libra and for the heart is one of the Major Arcana cards that identifies metabolic imbalances.
The Hanged Man is another card dealing directly with metabolism. This card attempts to identify accumulated plague in the colon and acid waste deposits at a cellular level.
Death is the zodiac sign Scorpio and represents an imminent shift in the physical being towards a denser level of heart problems
.
Temperance is the zodiac sign Sagittarius and directly points to dietary complications in the problem. These issues might involve weight issues, processed foods, and high levels of hormones and antibiotics from irreverent sources.
The Devil is the sign of Capricorn and often depicts environment conflicts in the body. Heavy metal poisoning, industrial toxins and water source conflicts, as well as allergies and respiratory vulnerability, are shown in this card.
The Tower is the planet Mars and clearly identifies an imbalance in the yin/yang symmetry where the aggressive nature overwhelms the passive ability to meditate and calm the spirit.
The Star is the zodiac sign Aquarius and points toward a “disconnected” condition of the heart in terms of spiritual guidance and the subconscious system of intuitive suggestions that change many habits in life.
The Moon and the zodiac sign Pisces shows multiple levels of interference meaning that a cumulative effect of many issues is current in the functioning of the heart.
The Sun is the Sun and always identifies the conscious position of the being. This is a very important card in any heart area reading as it clearly represents the being’s inability to understand the proper care and maintenance of the body.
Judgment is the planet Pluto and identifies the being as clearly off-path, with health issues being used as an intervention aid to slow the life down and offer a period of mediation.
The Universe is the planet Saturn and has a special place in every one of the five planes we read. This is where a health issue is karmic and normally has been created over time. This is where the soul pays for specific possession of anger, attitudes, prejudices and opinions that are clearly irreverent to the soul.
When one Major Arcana card is present, the health issue is somewhat imminent. If two Major Arcana cards show up in the same plane, the health issue is at a disease stage. If three Major Arcana cards show up, the disease is chronic and life-changing.

Hey you. Found an article on abovetopsecret.com entitled "Psychological Characteristics of Lightworkers", under the Psychology, Philosophy & Metaphysics section. The author, using pen name 4stral4pprentice, feels to have compiled enough lightworkers research to provide an "outline of lightworkers' psychological identity". Interesting. Without further adieu..
"*From early on in their life, they feel they are different. More often than not they feel isolated from others, lonely and misunderstood. They will often become individualists who will have to find their own unique ways in life. They have trouble feeling at home within traditional jobs and/or organization structures. Lightworkers are naturally anti-authoritarian which means that they naturally resist decisions or values based solely on power or hierarchy. This anti-authoritarian trait is present even if they seem timid and shy. It is connected to the very essence of their mission here on earth.
*Lightworkers feel drawn to helping people as a therapist or as a teacher. They may be psychologists, healers, teachers, nurses, etc. Even if their profession is not about helping people in a direct manner, the intent to contribute to the higher good of humanity is clearly present.
*Their vision of life is colored by a spiritual sense of how all things are related together. They consciously or subconsciously carry memories within them of non-earthly spheres of light. They may occasionally feel homesick for these spheres and feel like a stranger on earth.
*They deeply honor and respect life which often manifests as a fondness for animals and a concern for the environment. The destruction of parts of the animal and vegetable kingdoms on earth by human doing invokes deep feelings of loss and grief in them.
*They are kind-hearted, sensitive and empathic. They may have trouble dealing with aggressive behavior and they generally experience difficulties in standing up for themselves. They can be dreamy, naive or highly idealistic, as well as insufficiently grounded, i.e. down-to-earth. Because they easily pick up negative feelings and moods of people around them, it is important for them to spend time alone on a regular basis. This enables them to distinguish between their own feelings and those of others. They need solitary time to touch base with themselves and with mother earth.
*They have lived many lives on earth in which they were deeply involved with spirituality and/or religion. They were present in overwhelming numbers in the old religious orders of your past as monks, nuns, hermits, psychics, witches, shamans, priests, priestesses, etc. They were the ones providing a bridge between the visible and the invisible, between the daily context of earth life and the mysterious realms of the afterlife, realms of God and the spirits of good and evil. For fulfilling this role, they were often rejected and persecuted. Many of you were sentenced to the stake for the gifts you possessed. The traumas of persecution left deep traces within your soul’s memory. This may presently manifest as a fear of being fully grounded, i.e. a fear to be really present, because you remember being brutally attacked for who you were."

Two important pointers for me today, from Osho Zen Tarot.
28. Self-Acceptance
Self-Acceptance
Heart's-ease in the king's garden
You cannot improve upon yourself. And I am not saying that improvement does not happen, remember--but you cannot improve upon yourself. When you stop improving upon yourself, life improves you. In that relaxation, in that acceptance, life starts caressing you, life starts flowing through you. Nobody else has ever been like you and nobody else will ever be like you; you are simply unique, incomparable.
Accept this, love this, celebrate this--and in that very celebration you will start seeing the uniqueness of the others, the incomparable beauty of the others.
Love is possible only when there is a deep acceptance of oneself, the other, the world. Acceptance creates the milieu in which love grows, the soil in which love blooms.
I have heard:
A king went into his garden and found wilted and dying trees, shrubs and flowers. The oak said it was dying because it could not be tall like the pine. Turning to the pine, he found it drooping because it was unable to bear grapes like the vine. And the vine was dying because it could not blossom like the rose. He found Heart's-ease blooming and as fresh as ever. Upon inquiry, he received this reply:
"I took it for granted that when you planted me you wanted Heart's-ease. If you had desired an oak, a vine or a rose, you would have planted them. So I thought that since you put me here, I should do the best I can to be what you want. I can be nothing but what I am, and I am trying to be that to the best of my ability."
You are here because this existence needs you as you are. Otherwise somebody else would have been here!--existence would not have helped you to be here, would not have created you. You are fulfilling something very essential, something very fundamental, as you are. If God wanted a Buddha he could have produced as many Buddhas as he wanted. He produced only one Buddha--that was enough, and he was satisfied to his heart's desire, utterly satisfied. Since then he has not produced another Buddha or another Christ.
He has created you instead. Just think of the respect that the universe has given to you! You have been chosen, not Buddha, not Christ, not Krishna. You will be needed more, that's why. You fit more now. Their work is done, they contributed their fragrance to existence. Now you have to contribute your fragrance.
But the moralists, the puritans, the priests, they go on teaching you, they go on driving you crazy. They say to the rose, "Become a lotus." And they say to the lotus, "What are you doing here? You have to become something else." They drive the whole garden crazy, everything starts dying--because nobody can be anybody else, that is not possible.
That's what has happened to humanity. Everybody is pretending. Authenticity is lost, truth is lost, everybody is trying to show that he is somebody else. Just look at yourself: you are pretending to be somebody else. And you can be only yourself--there is no other way, there has never been, there is no possibility that you can be anybody else. You will remain yourself. You can enjoy it and bloom, or you can wither away if you condemn it.
20. Beyond Illusion
Beyond Illusion
This is the only distinction between the dream and the real: reality allows you to doubt, and the dream does not allow you to doubt....
To me, the capacity to doubt is one of the greatest blessings to humanity. The religions have been enemies because they have been cutting the very roots of doubt, and there is a reason why they have been doing that: because they want people to believe in certain illusions that they have been preaching....
Why have the people like Gautam Buddha been so insistent that the whole existence - except your witnessing self, except your awareness - is just ephemeral, made of the same stuff as dreams are made of? They are not saying that these trees are not there. They are not saying that these pillars are not there. Don't misunderstand because of the word "illusion".... It has been translated as illusion, but illusion is not the right word.
Illusion does not exist. Reality exists. Maya is just in between - it almost exists. As far as day-to-day activities are concerned, it can be taken as reality. Only in the ultimate sense, from the peak of your illumination, does it become unreal, illusory.
Osho The Great Zen Master Ta Hui Chapter 12
Commentary:
The butterfly in this card represents the outer, that which is constantly moving and that which is not real but an illusion. Behind the butterfly is the face of consciousness, looking inward to that which is eternal. The space between the two eyes has opened, revealing the lotus of spiritual unfoldment and the rising sun of awareness.
Through the rising of the inner sun, meditation is born. The card reminds us not to look outside for what is real, but to look within. When we focus on externals, we too often get caught up in judgments - this is good, this is bad, I want this, I don't want that. These judgments keep us trapped in our illusions, our sleepiness, our old habits and patterns.
Drop your opinionated mind and move inside. There, you can relax into your own deepest truth, where the difference between dreams and reality is already known.

My card for today. Very fitting.
8. Courage
Courage
The seed cannot know what is going to happen, the seed has never known the flower. And the seed cannot even believe that he has the potentiality to become a beautiful flower. Long is the journey, and it is always safer not to go on that journey because unknown is the path, nothing is guaranteed.
Nothing can be guaranteed. Thousand and one are the hazards of the journey, many are the pitfalls - and the seed is secure, hidden inside a hard core. But the seed tries, it makes an effort; it drops the hard shell which is its security, it starts moving. Immediately the fight starts: the struggle with the soil, with the stones, with the rocks. And the seed was very hard and the sprout will be very, very soft and dangers will be many.
There was no danger for the seed, the seed could have survived for millennia, but for the sprout many are the dangers. But the sprout starts towards the unknown, towards the sun, towards the source of light, not knowing where, not knowing why. Great is the cross to be carried, but a dream possesses the seed and the seed moves.
The same is the path for man. It is arduous. Much courage will be needed.
Osho Dang Dang Doko Dang Chapter 4
Commentary:
This card shows a small wildflower that has met the challenge of the rocks and stones in its path to emerge into the light of day. Surrounded by an aura of bright golden light, it exposes the majesty of its tiny self. Unashamed, it is equal to the brightest sun.
When we are faced with a very difficult situation we have a choice: we can either be resentful, and try to find somebody or something to blame for the hardships, or we can face the challenge and grow.
The flower shows us the way, as its passion for life leads it out of the darkness and into the light. There is no point fighting against the challenges of life, or trying to avoid or deny them. They are there, and if the seed is to become the flower we must go through them. Be courageous enough to grow into the flower you are meant to be.
In light,
Zia

I am experiencing a difficult time in my life lately. Everything is collapsing around me. It sometimes feels as if stasis has set in; not being able to move.
At the same time I am experiencing great learning and growth. I keep getting messages to trust. And peace. During the past weeks I've found 10s of old keys littering my path, and I've saved each one.
This morning I learned another valuable lesson. A lesson to that takes me closer to still the mind, to let doubt go. To accept that I don't know how the path will unfold or what is the 'plan' of the universe. To just anchor into the vastness of space and being.
I went to the Osho Zen Tarot site to pull a card for today. This is the card that was given to me:
11. Breakthrough
Breakthrough
To transform breakdowns into breakthroughs is the whole function of a master. The psychotherapist simply patches you up. That is his function. He is not there to transform you. You need a meta-psychology, the psychology of the buddhas.
It is the greatest adventure in life to go through a breakdown consciously. It is the greatest risk because there is no guarantee that the breakdown will become a breakthrough. It does become, but these things cannot be guaranteed. Your chaos is very ancient - for many, many lives you have been in chaos. It is thick and dense. It is almost a universe in itself. So when you enter into it with your small capacity, of course there is danger. But without facing this danger nobody has ever become integrated, nobody has ever become an individual, indivisible.
Zen, or meditation, is the method which will help you to go through the chaos, through the dark night of the soul, balanced, disciplined, alert. The dawn is not far away, but before you can reach the dawn, the dark night has to be passed through. And as the dawn comes closer, the night will become darker.
Osho Walking in Zen, Sitting in Zen Chapter 1
Thank you for this wonderful message.
In light,

Today I've seen the word trust several times. I registered the pointers and looked within, and acknowledged that it is something I need to work on. Mostly, to trust myself and the universe totally, without any doubt hesitation or fear.
Then I came to the blogs and found the excellent blog by Sharon on trust.
Later, I went to the Osho Zen Tarot site and pulled a card for today. It was The Fool.
"A fool is one who goes on trusting; a fool is one who goes on trusting against all his experience. You deceive him, and he trusts you; and you deceive him again, and he trusts you; and you deceive him again, and he trusts you. Then you will say that he is a fool, he does not learn. His trust is tremendous; his trust is so pure that nobody can corrupt it.
Be a fool in the Taoist sense, in the Zen sense. Don´t try to create a wall of knowledge around you. Whatsoever experience comes to you, let it happen, and then go on dropping it. Go on cleaning your mind continuously; go on dying to the past so you remain in the present, herenow, as if just born, just a babe.
In the beginning it is going to be very difficult. The world will start taking advantage of you...let them. They are poor fellows. Even if you are cheated and deceived and robbed, let it happen, because that which is really yours cannot be robbed from you, that which is really yours nobody can steal from you.
And each time you don´t allow situations to corrupt you, that opportunity will become an integration inside. Your soul will become more crystallized. Osho Dang Dang Doko Dang Chapter 2
Commentary:
Moment to moment, and with every step, the Fool leaves the past behind. He carries nothing more than his purity, innocence and trust, symbolized by the white rose in his hand. The pattern on his waistcoat contains the colors of all four elements of the tarot, indicating that he is in harmony with all that surrounds him. His intuition is functioning at its peak. At this moment the Fool has the support of the universe to make this jump into the unknown. Adventures await him in the river of life.
The card indicates that if you trust your intuition right now, your feeling of the 'rightness' of things, you cannot go wrong. Your actions may appear 'foolish' to others, or even to yourself, if you try to analyze them with the rational mind. But the 'zero' place occupied by the Fool is the numberless number where trust and innocence are the guides, not skepticism and past experience."
Ok. Thank you. Message received loud and clear. Now I work on clearing my ability to trust.

Hey guys,
Had a small revelation that may or may not mean anything to you whatsoever, but figured Id share regardless. So, in case you didn't catch lovelight's blog about the triangular crop circle (guess that would make it a crop triangle...), here's a picture from it...
I had a discussion with Jyothi, a/k/a the Presence sometime ago, and we were discussing different lines in our hands. Well, there have been a couple triangles in mine for a while, and most recently, more have sprung up, but they're all connected to the main ones I started with. I didn't even think to check until I read lovelight's blog, but I'm sure glad she wrote it (thank you Courtland!). It's really hard to take a clear picture of it, I don't have the materials to make a professional hand print. But the crop triangles seemed to coincide with what is going on in my major hand, the one you use most naturally, my left. They are not perfect, but each one inside appears approximately 1/3 the size of the next biggest triangle outlining it.
Here's a shot of me outlining them....
The bottom line that connects them all is the Hepatica, also known as the health line. Some people may not have it, and it is generally better, healthwise, if this line is not present. Here's a bit of science fiction for you, this line was GLOWING last night. Not the area around it, but the actual straight line that forms the base of these triangles. I had my hands on the laptop, so I put them back on the laptop, being a skeptic, in attempt to recreate the glow. Unsuccessful. The entire hand was red, but not the actual line itself. Needless to say Im going to get a checkup, to clarify my health is decent. Again, it is very faint, but compare the picture above, to my actual hand print below to spot the triangles...
Also, there are SEVERAL other triangles that have appeared most recently. I don't check my palms everyday, but if you look a little bit below those main 3 triangles, you'll see several others that all seem connected. Such exciting times ladies and gents!!!! Being a natural puzzle piecer, I have to believe these are connected, and the crop triangle makers know what they're doing. I wonder if any of you guys have something similar as far as crop triangles in the palm. If so, the main 3 triangles (one within another, within the third) is considered a "lucky triangle" if it is comprised like mine, with two of your main lines creating 2 of the sides of the triangle, with the health line forming the base. A "lucky triangle" is said to increase one's luck significantly (this is not approved by me, yet! lol). Maybe I'm being pessimistic, being alive during these times is very lucky. And I believe our earth's shifting will be lucky as well. I do believe the triangles have a deeper significance, being related to the Fibonacci sequence, which is the basis of many life forms, such as the growth of a flower, the pattern found in a seashell, and now apparently our own palms :) Thanks for reading, hope you guys are all doing well, I think about you all the time. Peace, light and love
-Val
P.S. Anyone catch the SECOND dust storm in Phoenix that happened today!?!? Wonder what's going to happen next!!!

Well so it is...
I, few minutes ago, talked over the phone with my mother about the weather during Midsummer, as we plan to go camping as I mentioned in Monday Tarot - Change entry.
Now it seems it is those Midsummer days that a big thunderstorm is hitting Finland.
So we are not going.
What changed was we end up not going camping, ultimately better than having a flooding tent, scared dog and mother and catching what not in the cold.
Now I just have to make few changes to how to spend the Midsummers.
I was waiting for camping though, really was, hopefully the weekend after this will be nice and sunny. :)

Break is over! I have opened http://niinac.blogspot.com/p/niinas-tarot-reading-and-healing.html Free Tarot Readings again. :) With a new little line at the near top of the page.
"When it comes to payment, I give my reading for free, and remind my querent (one who asks the question) that whatever they can do, are good at, I gladly accept something as a trade, be it CDs, channellings, attunement, art, healing, love. :) "
This comes due to the few people who have send me CDs and attunements as they wanted to thank me for the readings - and as I am all for trade instead of putting monetary label on creativity and quidance I think this is a wonderful way to be in a society with each other. And also due to few emails I received from people worried if I was not receiving anything hence loosing balance. Such a valid point! As I had to eventually go on a Tarot break. There is always a great value in balance.
I find myself having more energy and time again as Summer draws closer so I wanted to open my e-mail to my querants again!
Love, Light and Joy!

What will this Week bring me?
Four of Swords - Sword represent our spiritual state and our thoughts. They reflect our attitudes, sword also tells what energies we use usually sub-consciously to make our life what it is.
Truce, Jupiter in Libra, finding one's own center, clarity, spiritual cleansing, unifying, expansion.
Four sword tips meet in perfect flower, troubles have been won. Ace of swords clarity has been regained and the blue color of divinity can be seen again. Yellow-Green color of Creativity dominates the card.
In this atmosphere the flower of Consciousness is good to grow and evolve. Jupiter represents Joy and Expansion! Even if something has felt hopeless so far, is in fact in itself holding all that is needed for a happy, positive outcome.
This card holds a warning as well, truce is not peace. On the surface things can seem peaceful, but this peace can be created by holding emotions in check. Give careful look at the possibility that there are things that can be hidden right now, to acknowledge them early can strip them off their destructive force.
You have the inner clarity now to successfully do what you plan. Make sure whatever happens always makes you feel good.
***
I wanted to do a reading for my Birthday Week, it seems there is much to condier, but... I think I know what this is about, and I am set and ready to do my best about it - all I can do is decide what I do and what my actions are. :) Rest of it is in other people's hands. I am at peace with myself.
Love, Light and Joy!

Dear hearts of light,
years i questioned myself how one belongs to fantasise and how one belongs to dream,
because everybody that i have get to know, doesn't matter who, did say in a certain way to me, "act normal",
when my fantasy or dream doesn't fit in the picture of that persons fantasy or dream.
Because of this i began to think about what normal behaviour is and what normal experience is and how on should experience normal,
because out of the fantasy and the dream grows experience and out of the experience you receave wisdom that
you teach your surroundings and your children and you pass that to your children what you see and find "that is normal",
while the child and someone elses vieuw is a completly different experience vieuw of what's normal.
I know that fantasising and dreaming is creating out of the fantasie and the dream and that is what Is.( All That Is )
Dear hearts fantasising and dreaming is the engine of inspiration to create what the creation does also and waht the creation truly is.
So why are we prisoning fantasys and dreams ourselfs and does that also happens by our surroundings while that
is just living hole and one with All That Is ( Creation, Source, Allah, God, Buddha, Dharma, Prana).
In loving service into infinnity,
Swen.

There are striking similarities between the Tower Tarot and the events of 911. This illustrates one more way in which 911 seems to have been an occult ritual.

Here's another reason to be glad I don't live in Romania. Leaving aside for the moment how they're defining witchcraft and how on earth a religion can be a profession, the latest wrinkle in the ongoing saga of Romanian witches is just, plain dumb. Apparently, they're equating the fortune-telling with being a witch (???). Obviously, there is a whole cultural context here about which I'm woefully ignorant. But making anyone who does psychic readings legally responsible for their accuracy is ludicrous. I don't mean that people shouldn't be held responsible for the quality of their work, I just mean that accuracy of predictions is a poor measure of the quality of a reading. I know this sets me apart from a lot of people in my field, many of whom are very invested in "accuracy." But -- and I truly tire of pointing out this various obvious fact -- if the future were unchangeable what would be the point of having a psychic reading? So you could know what was coming, good or bad, and sit passively and powerlessly until it occurs? The whole point of getting any prediction is to get a heads up on your direction and make whatever changes are necessary to avoid or minimize potential problems. In the case of positive outcomes, it is the very unusual case where all that's required of a person is that they sit on their hands and wait. There is usually some action required to manifest any potential outcome.
Tarot expert Rachel Pollack makes the point in one of her books, I can never remember which one, that from the moment a tarot spread is laid out, it's already at least a little wrong. That's because the observer of those cards now has information they didn't have before. As a result their actions will invariably change at least slightly. This is the entire point of getting any form of psychic reading. Apparently, Romanian politicians don't understand this... not that this puts them in the minority. Under Soviet rule, it was illegal to practice witchcraft or any other religion. Now to practice the craft of psychic divination means witches could go to jail for simply doing their jobs.
"Witches in Romania could receive a spell in jail or a fine if they make incorrect fortune telling predictions.
Politicians are debating a draft bill which will require witches to apply for a permit and be judged on their accuracy.
They will also be required to provide receipts for their customers and will be prevented from carrying out their work near churches and schools."

Haven't had a tarot reading in a while so I was suprised I wanted to do one this morning.
I suppose next week has a special meaning if it needs to be shouted out through cards. ;)
When you believe that the world arranges itself to accommodate you and your life with signs and synchronicity it's easy to use our newest tool of deviation - the internet - to help peek into the meaning of our current state (past and future included). That is why it was easy to use the online deck this morning (if you want to use it scroll down my blog and find it at the right hand side, around the middle of the side bar).
Before I start I should say I aimed this reading towards work. And as you read on you should be aware that this week we will as whole group of all-ages of co-workers going to go put out some fires as a part of a safety course.
~*~
The card on the middle represents imagination - the prophetic image that stems from the creative force of the previous card to initiate the project. Ten of Staves (Oppression): A final trial before an enduring reward. The greater the struggle, the greater the reward. (organization, fire department, saving lives, trial by fire, struggle to maintain life)
The card on the left represents emotion - the feelings aroused by or surrounding the ideation of the project that takes place in the previous card. Eight of Swords (Interference): Emotional disaster. Loss of a beloved person or a valued situation. A sadness that creates a new strength and resolve. (To save lives, to act, you have to feel sympathy and empathy for the people in need of help to be able to thrust yourself to act)
The card in the top represents the creative force behind the King of Swords: A man of volatile temperament. A born fighter and ruler. A person in complete command. Self-mastery. Expertise. A person who prefers action to reflection - above all, dramatic, decisive action. (In Firefighting you have to have calling, powerful temperment, call to action, strong will, resolution and andrenaline)
The card on the bottom represents thought - the analytical process of organizing the project and capturing the emotional content of the previous card. Page of Swords: A Passionate young person given to seeking out the heart of the matter, even to the point of spying. Vigilance and quiet intensity. (No need to shout out how important life is, how important it is to act right - but it is important to have that fire blazing inside you to do the Right thing)
The card on the right represents manifestation - the real work involved in completing the project, and the form it will take upon culmination. Two of Swords (Peace): Friendship, especially between student and teacher or younger and older. The adventure and excitement of childhood and adolescence. (What can I say! Who doesn't think putting out fires and saving lives is RUSH? Huh?! ;D )
All these Wands and Swords are screaming deep clear wisdom and authority to hack away opposition, both signs of ACTION.
Could have not been a clearer message. "Pay Attention, you will physically need this!"
With this in mind I believe next week will be something that will be of importance in the physical plane - everyday is in spiritual level.
Love, Light and Joy!

P.S: If you do ask question with the generator, ask without yes or no answer, hold intent of the question as it processes it and use your intuition as you read the answers, like I did above with the green italics.

Story
17 Sep 2010 - 2:41am
We drift down the river, dreaming our way forwards. Awakening slowly to the truth of our experience; in whatever way we can relate to it most truly as ourselves. This is why our comfort and expansion of being and awareness is so important; to shed the light of understanding upon the ever unfolding manifestation. This is so that we might address the hard problems of men and women. Evolution of self is a simple, yet hard response. So it is only most likely when everything is falling apart around us.
Those who have felt to be ostracized from others at some point shut-down or seek a change/evolution that would allow them a place among the people.
The separation and divide is strong and felt by many, so the will for revolution is strong.
The coming, the becoming. Revealing of truth. Death of the old, birth of the new. A chance for another golden age to dawn. An age in which light fills the darkness which has blanketed us for so long, we can’t truly remember what union is really like. We taste here and there, but we fall time and time again into the void of feeling incomplete. Always asking, “What am I missing?” Always moving forward. Happy or sad. Reveling in life, or shying away in fear. It matters not in our sense of union. We can feel anything in spite of our disconnection. But the truth of our disconnection remains. Whether it be with ourselves, another, the disconnect of our community at large, or with the divine.
Morning light should burst bright. Night fades, and we find ourselves in twilight; waiting for that damn sun to finally find its way above the horizon. How long we have waited for this! LET IT COME, we sing loud. I AM READY, we plead. WE UNDERSTAND COMMUNITY AND LOVE, we wager, but we’ve wagered wrong if we think that will let us escape what is to come.
‘Cause the tower you so desperately want to fall. It is going to. And none of us are ready for that. There is no way to prepare. It is sudden, takes you all the way down in an instant with nothing but truth. It’s amazing how certain truths bring us down so easy.
Everything you’ve ever done is not the right path. It will lead you to it, but the right path would lead us away from this tower. We only understand how to move towards it, because we asked for freedom. WE NEED FREEDOM NOW! We can wait not longer. And as the truth shall set you free, that is all that we will find. Yes, all this too has just been a stepping stone. To move from one place of understanding to one yet greater…
See, the truth is we’ve come to the point where we admit we don’t truly understand. We have learned a lot and are wise, but none of it fits as is in a way to meet the requirements of what we need to be doing. Massive apathy, confusion, and naivety have delivered us to a place in which we are powerless. Without a proper union of will, our power is nothing but a dream. We have to wake up, then and only then can we realize our dreams.
Only in our naked fearlessness will we meet our path of truth and right action with acceptance. It’s not a black and white matrix that leads us to our decision. Desperate clinging to wisdom of old and all the arcane knowledge of the world won’t make you decide one way or another. It was never about dogma. But once upon a time, what was it that dogma taught us?
These are the words of just a man, from within. But are we being called out to be more than just a single man or woman? What are we being called out to do?
In my dissolution I ask my HEART to give not a sign for the people, but a will. Does will answer me?
YES I DO. AUTOMATIC WRITING AND THE WORDS OF OTHERS WILL ONLY EVER GET YOU SO FAR CHANNELS! THE RIGHT ROAD AIN’T A ROAD AND IT IS A PATH FOR THE PATIENT. WE ALL ALREADY KNOW WHAT WE NEED TO, TIME FOR REST AND FINAL PREPARATIONS FOR A MOST NOVEL TIME! WHAT YOU ARE ALL LOOKING FOR ISN’T IN THE WORDS, IT’S IN THE HEART, SO TAKE HEART AS FULFILLMENT IS AT HAND! IT IS NOT SO MUCH MY WILL BE DONE, OR THY WILL BE DONE; SO MUCH AS JUST WILL BE DONE. I WILL LET THE CARDS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
JUSTICE JUST IS.
TIME FOR A FOOLS GAME.
DEATH ISN’T PLAYING ANYMORE.
TEMPERANCE IS CALLING YOU OUT TO ONLY FOLLOW ORDERS THAT ALSO ARISE WITHIN YOURSELF.
THE STARS SHALL COMFORT US IN OUR DARKEST HOUR.
THE DEVIL IS ON YOUR SIDE, HE WILL ONLY EVER TELL YOU THE TRUTH, AND “HIS” SEED IN YOU IS YOUR REJECTION OF WHAT IS TRUE. HIS IS A TOUGH LOVE INDEED.
THE WHEEL MAKES A FULL REVOLUTION.
THE EMPEROR IS BESIDE HIMSELF.
THE EMPRESS WEEPS.
THE MAGICIAN SETS THE STAGE.
THE MAN HUNG UPSIDE DOWN HAS ALREADY FOUND THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN; WHEN THE WORLD FLIPS HE’LL BE BACK ON HIS FEET AGAIN.
“I WAS NEVER ALONE” SAYS THE HERMIT COMING FROM HIS CAVE.
THE POPE DIES.
THE POPESS REVEALS HERSELF, NOT A SCANDAL!
THE TOWER IS FALLING SAID CHICKEN LITTLE! BUT YOU’VE CRIED WOLF SAYS THE PEOPLE!
THE LOVERS FINALLY COME TO UNDERSTAND UNION.
THE SEED OF THE CHARIOT SPROUTS.
FORCES AT WORK AS ALWAYS, FINISH YOUR CURRENT AFFAIRS, THEN REST FOR YOUR HEALTH.
THE BRILLIANT MOON HAS REFLECTED A LIGHT OF LOVE WHENEVER IT COULD DURING OUR LONG NIGHT. AND SO LUNAR HAS CARRIED US FAR AND THROUGH THE NIGHT, BUT IT IS NOW TWILIGHT…
FOR THE SUN COMETH, BEARING JUDGMENT AND THE WORLD ON A WHITE HORSE.
Time to let it all go, because the love that is true will always remain. Thank you for reading, I hope I had something new to say.
Teaching
7 Sep 2010 - 2:36pm
There are many ways to define the same thing and depending on where you are coming from, the light that reflects upon the situation will make the same thing look drastically different. Understanding this is one of the most important principles the learning experience called life can give to you. If we cannot respect the fact that each person goes through their journey individually then we must at least agree to keep our judgments to ourselves and allow future generations to see the world through their own eyes.
New Age Spirituality tells us that judgments do not serve man; it only prevents the unity needed to achieve amazing things. By focusing on differences instead of similarities we prove the ignorance of the self and intern separate each one of us from the foundation of civilization, grouping ourselves to accomplish greater tasks and thus encourage a higher rate of human survival.
Now that we are no longer are in need of protecting ourselves from the beast of this planet and we do not needed to hunt for our own food anymore, it seems that there is no need for unity. When in fact there is a great need for unity of all people. When we come together and open our hearts and minds (not to accept others values as our own) but to hold a new respect; that a person holds their values close to their hearts in the same way that you do. Then we can break bread together and unity shall begin, and intern humanity will see a great reduction in conflict and a serious jump in technological, philosophical and social advancement.

33:33 #5 – An open tarot Spread
Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser.
HI everyone, May the lights be in your skies always.
First up. A change in day for delivering the articles. Wednesday, which has always been a day supportive of the work that I do. So from now on, all 33:33 articles go out Wed morning, Singapore timeline.
Secondly, this week’s article is more of a short Tarot reading for consideration. It’s going to be generalized, quick and open to interpretation. Perhaps, its a reading more for my own reflections but you’re welcome to partake.
As my approach to 33:33 evolves, there is going to be more ways I’ll try to deliver something new and perhaps experimental.
The question on my mind was “what should we discuss tonight?” with an idea of connecting it with being prepared, on a spiritual level for so much things that are changing in this reality we share.
The opening of tonight’s spread (Using only the Thoth Deck) reveals both oppression and disappointment. On how we can overcome this, I pulled out an ace of swords. Based on these first three cards, I shall enter the discussion.
Oppression here, to me, is the affect of not being able to express or do what is desired. There is will, there is a drive to move forward but the prison like bars is holding everything back. It is restricting progress. It is a frustrating process.
I personally feel that on an astrological level, the grand cross has our reality in it’s sights and is surging out energies of change, support, Divine energy up-scaling and upgrading of our systems, reactions, choices and visions.
It’s taking stock time for plenty of planetary beings and so the ‘oppression’ here, and the ‘disappointment’ could be reactions towards a much needed time for contemplation and inner work. Perhaps, the conditions for change are moving into position and it isn’t entirely the right time to be charging ahead.
We stop now, to consider how our lives are changing’s and to consider what kind of changes we want in our lives. This would lead to the ‘new ideas’ expressed in the ace of swords.
Try to recognize what the ‘stoppage’ is. I picked out another card to ask ‘what is causing the stoppage’ and received the Tower card.
So here it is, in association with the ace, the tearing down of ideas no longer useful in the turning of the ages to make way for fresh, enlightening ideas. The old ideas may be prisons in itself, restricting our own growth. We should evolve, find new ways, break out of safety zones, discover new ways to explore the spirit.
I asked ‘what would happen after the tower’ and opened up….
disappointment (5 of cups) again and The Aeon (Last Judgment) but disappointment in what?
The Prince of Disks provides possible insights.
These ideas that the tower tears down may thus be related to the ‘work’ that we’re doing. It could mean our careers or our own spiritual work.
We may be disappointed once we’ve come to a realization; that whatever we’ve been building up may not be so relevant anymore, that we may have lost sight of the bigger vision of our lives.
And this pushes us to make a massive decision on where we should be turning to next.
(And so where do we turn to next?) drawn: (Princess of cups)
To enter the next spiritual stream without fighting against the current. If there’s too much resistance, we may not be on the right path.
Choose the path of least resistance, listen to what your heart is saying to you. If it isn’t flowing as smooth as it should, go deep within and find out why.
Find the next spiritual rapture.
Strive to be moving with the tides Also, be consistently striving to mature in your emotional life, to develop a strong ability to remain centered in the torrential storm.
If nothing is happening for you, don’t push it. Let it take its course.
You could be internally renovating, new energies coming into your system may not have adjusted and tuned with your own energy system.
Stay grounded, stay as centered as possible during the emotional turmoil.
Trust that you’ll be shown the signs. And most of all.
Stay calm and carry on.
Thanks for your time and attention.

ALL TAROT SPECIAL
HI. This is issue #2 of 33:33. May the Light be with you always.
We are coordinating with the universe here, keeping our eyes and minds peeled to the heart of the signs. The communication is ongoing though our engagement in the discussion may take breaks, sometimes abandoned altogether. Life is in constant interaction, no matter how still we can be. Not that stillness is not a virtue, it is. What this ‘dance with the cosmos’ means is that we’re not dead, though some of us can be ‘not so alive.’
The cards are static, its images are still though it’s spirit, like our imagination is in constant flux, ebb and pull and push and explosive. The cards come alive in our minds, moving according to its intended meaning, symbolism, weighted, advanced and enhanced by our experience and perceptions.
We pool our scenarios, challenges, uncertainties, affirmations, and so forth around the selected image. Then we give it intention, a notion, an idea, an onslaught of depth worship and understanding so that we can see as well as believe.
The higher mind is geared up and seeks to penetrate the mystery, to find answers, to reveal like a sleight of hand, the hidden gem, the shadowy cause, the elected truth that can sail us on our way out of troubled waters.
The Keys of the Tarot may crudely but surely imply an opening of the locks, the outpouring of information through the door of consciousness. It’s energy surges forth. We identify, react and engage. We KNOW these images. They’re collective, inherited, a formula encrypted in our DNA. The cards are consciousness, cosmic and unending, talking to our consciousness, speaking for itself, to itself. They are there in our lives just as we are in theirs. There’s a kind of unity here that may smack of oneness. Something inseparable and whole though appearing random and fragmented. Isn’t like that in general? This accused ‘illusion of separation’?
It’s all one picture it seems, no matter how many pictures there are.
ARTHURIAN TAROT – SWORD MAIDEN
Our silver lighted mind is sheaved in a scabbard of intricate designs. The maiden could be one who seduces, who eroticizes, who weaves the designs. Is this a distraction? Could the pretty things in this world’s temporary parade be hiding or even dulling the gleaming shine of a consciousness filled with light?
We are all always learning to use our minds. It can harm, it can sever what does not belong, it can be a righteous tool or a damning one. It can create safety or instill fear. However we wish to use it, it is our choice.
The maiden is a student, not yet a mother ready with shaping another child, not yet a wizened old woman, potent and experienced, discerning and frightening all at once. Ready to strike a deathblow to that which is irrelevant. Brutal and destructive, in creative, tough love ways. The maiden is still young, as some of us are, in our hearts and minds. We may still miss the sword for the scabbard, caught up in the pretty things.
But we will get there. Some of us are already there, but everyone is still striving forth, sharpening our minds, using it for what its worth. It is ours to wield, this sword of ours, this strength, this power called consciousness. We are responsible for it’s use.
To knight a man or behead him. That too is our choice.
EXPERIMENTAL TAROT – SHAMAN – 9 – WILL – A – SIGN OF MERCURY AND INFINITY.
Nine laser red rays shoot out the Third eye of the silver bodied masculine android. The nine rays may allude to the nine gifts of the spirit, distributing the nine powers of Wisdom, knowledge and discernment. Faith, healing and miracle working. Prophecy, speaking in tongues and the interpretation of tongues.
These also, are gifts of the Shaman. Not everyone gets all gifts. They receive according to their own needs and missions. The robot here is the light-worker, the magician, the healer. Governed by the WILL, transmitting energy fluidly and effectively via Mercury.
Learning is its foundation, as seen by the manuscripts before the figure. There should be a need for understanding the background, to be theoretically armed and executed through practical applications, of anything one chooses to do as a profession, a calling, a job. To know it, intimately, then to add to it, to evolve.
That is the nature of the butterfly and flower symbols. Of evolution (from the caterpillar through the cocoon to the flight of the butterfly) and (from seed, to flower) Both symbols resting on a red table, promoting passion, energy and fire.
The android is pleased to be what it is, as we should be pleased with who we are and how we should be growing. This cycle of birth, growth, maturity, ageing and death is one of infinity. It goes ever onwards, ever spiraling higher till the long journey is complete, till we have returned to the point of the nine rays, the third eye, the three, trinity of God-head; The Crown, The Wisdom and The Understanding, formed above the abyss of duality, where there is unity and the Allness.
We are our own shaman guides, the mediator between man (our lower selves) and Spirit (Higher self, the Only Self.) We can be the bridge to our own wholeness. Just take control. Learn. Evolve. Open up our crowns (our royalty) and our hearts (The Love Force)
Align our WILL to the WILL of the universe which is the will-to-good and we shall be ushered, surely, to the All Light of The Gods.
LEGACY OF THE DIVINE TAROT – KING OF SWORDS
(A Take on The Futurism)
It seems the Sword Maiden has now taken form of The King in future time. Silver wings of the mind expanded, hands firmly gripped on the sword of the four directions (cross symbolism of the downward facing sword) the four directions equating to the four elements. Mastery over fire, water, air and earth. Mastery over Will, Emotions, Mind and Material Life. This may be the goal, of this earth plane. Mastery over the self and the elements of life.
The king is heightened upon clouds, winged like an angel, our angelic self in full expression. The upward triangle is the sign of air, also a direction of scaling the heights, ‘heading up’ points to Heaven. A line dissects the triangle, separating the upper and the lower natures though both existing in one triangle. The mystery and the message repeat itself here. Royalty revisits our poor state. We are kings again, of authority and power over the reality we wish to create.
Lightning streaks in his blue cloak, a sign of raw energy moving through spirituality, charging up that which conceals us, our flesh, our clothes. The lightning is one that moves through us and within us, just as it says that prayer and mantras is lightning in reverse. From the earth to the heavens, we send our signal to manifest and the power comes down upon us again, manifested. We are empowered to believe and belief strikes first from the mind into the heart and into existence. We channel the power down, through us, into our earthly plane (Remember how the magician stands). Here we make the miracles happen, the magic of everyday life, once we have regained our right to be Kings over our own minds.
‘The ALL is mind, The Universe is Mental.’ This is the first Hermetic principle.
HAINDL TAROT –MIXED HAPPINESS – FOUR OF CUPS
(The Eyes sees, the Eye penetrates, What does it see?)
Cups collide above land and sea. On the left are leaves in full expression, on the right, only dry twigs, stripped of life. The larger leaves seem crisp and dried, where has the freshness gone? Perhaps that is why there’s mixed happiness.
Not everything is rosy. Not everything is smooth (see how textured the whole scene is, how rough.) The difficult times are here. Full blown, lingering, post-mortem. It had come, it stays, had just left. Doesn’t matter. It leaves some kind of situation, a taste stuck on our tongues. So what do we focus on? What we can still do, or what we have been stopped from doing? What we have lost or what we still have? Are we on the side of life or death?
As for the cups, we pour water into an ocean, an almost pointless task, while we also pour water onto the dry land, surely, something must come of it. SO why don’t we pour all four cups unto the land? To fertilize it, to give it life?
Watch how we may be pursuing the pointless things. Are we wasting our creative energy (water energy)? In another word, this means not investing emotions into things that have no life anymore. A toxic relationship, an old way of life, an unsuitable career. Whatever is holding us back or keeping us down. Nurture what is meaningful.
Spend our emotions wisely, then the mixed shall be turned into full happiness.
ESOTERIC ANCIENT TAROT -42-TENDERNESS
How battle hardened we can become in such a world, that we forget the tenderness of a soft breeze, of the motion of tall grasses, of our own fragile soul.
We live in noise and harshness, rush forward, amassing our fortunes, watching crime and war on TV while eating popcorn. Desensitization is our disease. We are angry angels.
Tenderness has an energy that is motherly and nurturing, gentle in its own powerful way. In the last bleeding throes, It is tenderness a dying soldier wants. Not a return fire. Not revenge. But of caring voice that says, “It’s Alright, It’s OK. You’re going home now…”
There is a tenderness in silence. In the quietude of sitting by a lake or of staring up at the stars, in the dark of our own room, we can choose to be vast and centered, expansive like the galaxy. Here we can take care of our sensitive spirits. Spirit is gentle. Spirit is tender.
Do we show tenderness to those around us? Especially children? Are we concerned enough for one another? Especially the sick and the sad? Are we even taking out our anger at our pets? Just because they love us not matter what?
To serve with gentility, to understand that beneath any grim and hard surface, hidden behind that unbreakable façade is a being waiting to be cared for, waiting to be loved, softens the blows of a difficult life. It’s a gentle strength like that of the strength card where the woman calmly soothes the savage beast. So too can we soothe this violent world, when we show a little more care and tenderness.
ROBIN WOOD TAROT – 6 OF CUPS
The third card in a series of cups sequences speaks to us about giving and compassion, as if to reinforce the nature of tenderness, as if to balance out the cold steel of the mind, the fire heat of the will.
What do we give to others? How do we give?
The flower is symbolic of spiritual unfolding and it is in the spirit of giving and of sharing, that the soul unfolds. Our own growth is food for another’s maturity. How we grow, the methods we use, the paths we have followed, the lessons we have learnt, should be shared with those who are willing to receive.
We can’t do this alone.
The gift of Sophia, of Wisdom is for all. Spirit is for everyone, the boundless light will serve us, those after us, till the end that does not come. We cannot keep it. We cannot lock it up in our drawers. The more we aim to reserve spirit for ourselves, the more elusive it can get.
Give and it shall keep coming unto you.
The sun rises and shines on all. The flower may be small the bush, inarticulate, but all deserves the sun’s life giving rays. Someone may be ‘small’ perhaps in mind or spirit, but that doesn’t mean he or she cannot grow. We can help one another to grow, by providing whatever it is we can provide.
Spread a little more love and knowledge. Use your gifts in the service of others. Share your stories and your faults, your strengths and your weaknesses. Let it out of you so that more can come in.
Giving and receiving is like breathing. Naturally in, naturally out, natural all around.
Thanks for your time and attention.

Hi everyone and thank you for reading!
May the Light be with you always.
Welcome. This is the first ‘issue’ of 33:33 where I contemplate 6 ‘cards of cosmic consciousness.’ I chose 6 because primarily it’s the number of harmony. It resonates as Tiphareth (Beauty) on the Qaballah Tree of Life and is the realm of The Christ, Solar Consciousness and The Sun.
The ‘mission’ of 33:33 is not about prediction. It’s about considering the essence, message or any kind of ‘sign’ that might show up as I randomly pick 6 cards from 6 different decks. Of course, please have a look at the cards themselves and gain from it whatever your intuition guides you to perceive. This is only my interpretation of the powers or aspects of cosmic consciousness that can be integrated and used to influence, affect and inspire our daily lives. You might hear a completely different message just by looking at the images and this is of course encouraged. Use what resonates and works with you.
Listen to your inner wisdom and it will tell you exactly what you need.
I hope to learn much from working on these cards as much as I hope you may learn something from them too.
Personally, I see these cards as wise reminders of the various attitudes, states of awareness and action steps we must take on or avoid in order to evolve and grow as spiritual beings.
I find that Intellectually perceiving these cards are not enough. We should also feel them, letting them work on both heart and mind.
By engaging in their respective energies, I feel that we are being lent these powers or somehow, activated, to take the steps we need to co-create our realities. We should create with feeling and the archetypes in these images are gateways to those feelings. Ultimately, we have to choose what we want to do with these inspirations and participate once we’ve been activated.
Once again, thank you for joining me and may your journeys be fruitful, blessed and shining like a campfire in the dark.

From Doreen Virtue’s Goddess Guidance Oracle Cards
MAEVE - CYCLES & RHYTHMS
“Honor the cycles of your body, energy levels, and emotions.”
She knows which points on the earth to awaken, as you know which points in your life to redeem.
Have you been repeating your mistakes? Doing the same harmful thing to yourself or one another, again and again?
It is time to break the cycle. To touch your error and say, “you shall be an error no more.”
Then walk away from it, believing in your new cycle of life, and starting on a new level (never at the same old point.)
You shall evolve.
Let the white and Violet flame burn away the old you. Let it burn from the ground up, just as you reach one level to the next. Immerse yourself in it. Let it transform you.
The violet fame is from Saint Germain. The white flame of ascension is from Serapis Bey. Both spiritual masters. Both helping us rise to new levels of consciousness.
Dance according to the movement of the tide. Why swim against the current of things? Everything has its rhythm.
Work with it, play with it, sync with it and you will be aligned. There is no other soundtrack except the one you make your own.
Don’t be afraid to live according the beat of your own drum. Be original. Stay true to yourself and your cycles of growth. There is no point in rushing things.
Take the time to listen to the rhythm of your heart and the sanctions of your soul.
Heaven has given you to yourself. Don’t lose it to someone else’s ideals. Create your own reality.
From Doreen Virtue’s Ascended Masters Oracle Cards
WHITE TARA – PURIFICATION
The soul is a delicate thing, like a stem of a flower. It needs fresh clean water to bloom openly and splendidly. So does your spirit.
The water of purity is all around us though we do not see it.
We are like fishes in a sea that does not realize it is swimming in the sea. So are we immersed in the great life force of power and pure energy.
But how do we use this life force? How do we live our life? The force can be animated in any way we like. Are we making it move within us with the right intentions? Are we occupying our minds with the rightful kind of energy or are we burdened with dark, troubling thoughts? Is there light in our hearts or only the weight of resentments and anger?
Take a deep breath.
Then blow out anything that may be upsetting you. Release the heartaches, the troubling energies, the burden of your world.
Breathe in strength again, breathe in the pure light from above, the blessed air powered by the Sun.
Blow out again everything that is disturbing you, making you hurt, causing you pain.
Let it all go.
Have a bath. Shower away your bad thoughts, your sour feelings. Imagine them draining away into the black hole.
Be clean, both in body and mind and Spirit. Wash ALL your negative filth away and your soul will be refreshed. It just takes a little imagination to wash away the ‘dirt’ in your life.
Bless your water and drink from the cup of cleansing. Let it flow within your body, energizing and cleaning away all that is unclean for you. Let it drown out your old habits, your negative thinking, your worrisome and unhealthy ideas, your old, irrelevant self.
Go to the restroom then flush it all away!
Out of your system, out of your heart, out of your life. You may imagine a white cleansing light filling you up, dispelling the dark fog.
Breathe in the Light. Breathe out the darkness.
Connect always to the pure ocean of light and you shall glow gleaming and glorious as an immortal flower.
From the ZEN OSHO TAROT deck by OSHO.
PLAYFULNESS
As the joker once said, “Why so serious?” Throw your head back and open your arms to the playfulness of the universe.
Watch the way the kittens play with their mother. See how the dolphins leap out of the ocean. Observe the way monkeys chase each other through the trees. The whole of nature understands playfulness. It is we humans who sometimes forget it.
Go ahead. Have fun. Spread a little joy around.
Playfulness is also a way of letting go.
Through play, we spend our energies in a positive, uplifting and even infectious way. We may even make others watch and smile and even join in on the expression.
Do you not smile when you watch children squealing with joy dashing around a playground? By being playful we are not being childish. In fact, we are simply allowing our inner child to come out into the sunshine.
Paint and draw without restrictions , play some board-games, play catching, ride a roller coaster, go on a water slide, do ANYTHING that you deem fun.
Youthfulness of heart and soul can be made manifest this way. Don’t we all wish to be young at heart sometimes? To feel the power of youth again?
Then give yourself permission to enjoy your life in a heartfelt way.
Our innocence may not all be lost if we allow a little more play into our lives.
From the THOTH TAROT by Aleister Crowley
6 OF CUPS – PLEASURE
The cups are illuminated, its flow, smooth and uninterrupted. The waves rise and fall like a ballet, everything is expressed like a fine tuned choir singing an uplifting song. That is the feeling of pleasure in the heart.
Find the pleasure in everything that you do because harmony comes from a joyful and pleased heart. It shall sing whenever it is engaged in something that is meaningful to you.
Then you will know it has hit its mark and found its home.
It is true that sometimes, we must do things that are not pleasurable, but the bigger picture, the vision on the horizon has to have that pleasing and well meaning end. If it does not, then find it. The heart knows the way. I do not mean pleasure here in an overly sensual and depthless gratification of enjoyment, but a stable satisfaction that stems from a deep and restful happiness. To KNOW, deep inside, that it is right and it is well.
To FEEL that the outcome has made life a little more meaningful and fulfilling.
That is the pleasure to keep and to cherish.
From Doreen Virtue’s Messages from the Angels deck.
CRYSTAL
“Have Faith and Hope, because there is something positive and new on the horizon that you can’t see yet.”
The Angel touches her heart in a field of flowers, as if to say, “thank you” or “You have touched my heart.” She speaks to the universe, for she knows that the universe always provides, that it’s will – to – good shall make things right even when they seem wrong.
Trust, that the universe is taking care of you.
We may not understand why something ‘bad’ may have happened to us, nor can we see what’s on the curved road ahead. What we can do is believe. Believe that the same sculptor that brings such beauty to a field of red flowers is the very same sculptor that can shape our lives. If we allow it.
Believe that the power of our rising sun, with its energetic and powerful light bringing life to the world is the same power that lends us strength in times of conflict. If we ask for it.
Look up to the stars at night and take a deep breath. See how vast it is, how eternal. See how the moon waxes and wanes, shining in its full moon glory. See the might of the sea or the stillness of a lake. See all of this and know that the force behind such beauty is the same force we can rely on when we have faith and hope. Believe, and it will become real. Ask, and be open to receiving. Put your trust in the universe, and the universe will take care of the rest.
From Diana Cooper’s Atlantis cards
Sound & Music “Keep everything in Harmony.”
Sound is energy and music is a mood enhancing tool. It takes you up, it takes you down, it takes you on journeys.
Music is frequency and vibration, with its highs, middles and lows. Change the music, change the frequency, change the mood, change your state of vibration.
So choose the mood you wish to be in. Choose the frequency you wish to BE and vibrate at that level.
Music is everywhere, in nature and in culture.
Some can damage us, some can enlighten us. In the end, it is how you FEEL that matters. The heart cannot go wrong with this matter. Let it lift you up or even take you down if that is what you need to keep moving.
Music should leave us whole and complete in one way or the other. Everyone has their own taste, their own style. Find the one that MOVES you, for movement is part of existence.
Music may move you within, guiding and swerving your emotions into new profound territories. Or it can move you without, connecting you back to the tribal times of dancing and expression, of physical movement that releases energy and emotion in creative and spiritual ways.
Music is about expression and giving yourself the permission to express, to let go, to release.
Music is cathartic and energizing. It is the maiden of memory and inspiration.
Use music to harmonize yourself to the universe. Dance with the rhythm of existence and let your soul sing the song of spirit.
Thanks for your time and attention.

Here I stand in the center of the universe. My universe in which I am the creator of and the creation, there is no one as important as me in this Universe. I realize that because I AM in the center of my universe I am in a position of ultimate power. I am the master of my Universe and I can control anything that goes on with-in that Universe. I live with-in this universe, and I mold this universe because I live in the center of this universe which is located in the metaphysical center of me. Truth be told the metaphysical sense of me is truly who I AM and so are you.
You are the Universe; your Universe is in a great place of power and love.
I do not think there are words sufficient enough to explain these truths because there is only ONE way to find this out and that is through YOU. That is not negotiable although the methods will be as unique and personal as the individual.
I was able to gain access to this wonderful world of Metaphysical knowledge when I accepted responsibility for everything that has ever happened to me and I accepted that it was my fault entirely. I do not blame anyone for my F-ups I have and always have had the choice of living the life I wanted. I then choose to look fear in the face and try to understand the unknown. This was the thought behind the subtitle for my book “15 Days to a beautiful life - Understanding God”. I have no Idea how to describe what I am seeing as truth and I feel like I am seeing above things at times with lack of language to express it. I can just tell you taht the answers are right there for you inside your true self.
It is becoming undeniable that the metaphysical is becoming a real force in this world and I have watched many ancient theologies warm up to this idea, which is wonderful. As long as there are people like you and me who put the fact with feelings and look inside, we will always be amazingly blessed. When we look with-in we magically have a mutual understanding of free will and individual preference because we will know the truth and purpose of choice. Besides those that do not observe this truth will not be part of a masters Universe and are not a vibration match. This is the Universal Law which is set by the hand of those who observe it and is as powerful as your Universe wishes it to be.

I am sure someone has asked you this question many times; although depending on your age the phrasing may be different. The most common form of this question is “What do you do for a living?” I am going to assume that 99.99% of the time this refers to work or your job in some way. Most people relate who they are with what they do. This subconscious hick-up can cause a ton of unnecessary negative emotion and even worse “Writers Block”.
Truth be told, even the most glamorous job cannot define you. You are way more magnificent than that. If you are a musician, artist or writer your work may be a reflection of which you are as a person but it is you the creator who breathes life into the creations in which you create. You are unique and anything that more than one person calls them self cannot represent you ij your entirety. I am a writer, a dad and a husband no one thing describes me although I am proud to be all of them.
There are over 6 billion beautiful people that are each truly unique, no two are exactly alike. Your body is your temple and it holds the most beautiful, loving and extraordinary amazing creature inside of it; Your Spirit.
The spirit that is inside of you is the truth, your truth. The only truth you shall ever have. I say to my readers almost every essay, blog, speech or book I create. To look inside, they ask me why?
Your spirit will answer all the questions you have and I can assure you that the answer will be as unique as the faces that represent the journey to get them. Man has got into a great deal of trouble by telling others how to live and what to believe in. The obsession to be right is something that has taken many men to the point of insanity and all for not because each person’s path is unique and their interaction with the path they are on.
Many people pick up self help books like mine and hope that the book is a user manual to their souls but that would serve no purpose to you. I choose to put the power in your hands, I write to point out that there is beautiful and loving magic inside of you that is always at your disposal and is as abundant as infinity. This journey is deeply personal because we all do not all think the same exact thoughts. Your path is either littered with negative thoughts, hate and intolerance. Or your path is pure of all impurities which are one of many symptoms of the positive thoughts you think, and positive affirmations you say.
That being said, this all comes back to loving yourself. Desiring what you want is the easy part. The belief that you can do it and feel that you are worthy enough to have it is another. This is where you find the state of being needed to succeed and it also provides you with the endurance to make positive thinking an effective Life style choice. If you cannot find love for in yourself, you will not find that love in yourself. That love is your truth and is your spirit and it has always been there waiting for you to stop star gazing and look inside.
Try Loving yourself and Love whatever it is that makes you, YOU!
Then figure out what you believe and start looking for the magic in your life. You will be surprised in what you find and how amazing you truly are.
No matter what your theology it serves you no purpose to doubt yourself; so pay attention to that gut instinct, respect each other’s path, and put your faith in yourself where it belongs.

~~The Fool~~
The Fool's journey is an analogy for our own journey through life and spirit. He is the unexpected quiet hero and his quest is one of purpose. He is the pilgrim, ultimately trying to find meaning for his life. He is on the path of self-development and spiritual enlightenment. He represents the chaos before order, our impulsiveness before rational thinking, and innocence before experience. The Fool represents the childlike spirit within everyone.
The Fool is the only card in the deck that is, essentially, numberless. The Fool can appear at both the beginning or the ending of a life cycle. Therefore, he does not need to be assigned a number. He is the child embarking on a new journey. Significantly The Fool can be the first card of the Major Arcana or the last. Moreover, he can also appear in any major life transitions. The fact that he is numberless serves an important purpose. He can show up at any point in one's journey. He is omnipresent with an important message "follow your heart and stay true to who you are".
In a tarot reading
The Fool can suggest a new beginning or ending of a phase of life. In some cases there may be an unexpected influence that can change the direction of the your life path. Often you may find yourself faced with an important decision that can have profound results. Depending on which cards surround The Fool, a warning or change of direction may be warranted. Although The Fool can be the free thinker and creative dreamer, he may also be reckless and irresponsible. The nature and meaning of The Fool card is often more clearly determined by the other cards flanking it within the reading.
Upright Fool Tarot Card Meanings in a tarot Reading
In its upright position The Fool represents the journey into the unfamiliar. An unexpected opportunity may arise or a life changing decision might have to be made. There may be a new relationship on the horizon or a new, unconventional person may be entering your life. The Fool suggests that you may also need a change of perspective, one that is more true to your heart. This perspective may require you to find a more child-like approach to a new situation or utilize more flexible, innovative thinking. This may be a creative time for you and you can expect some uncertainty. In a Tarot reading, The Fool also indicates a period of doubt. This is a time to take a leap of faith. Occasionally, The Fool may indicate an upcoming trip or travel of some kind.
Follow your heart
Be willing to take some risks

~~The Sun~~
Traditionally, the Sun’s Tarot meaning represents success and achievement. Often, the Sun relays messages of positive news such as births, financial successes, marriages, stability, completion of projects and an overall happiness. Because the Sun represents a new light, it alludes to the fact that one’s path may have endured dark periods. This is a time to rejoice and celebrate. A cycle in life has been completed. One may once again view the world from a new perspective.
The Sun card is the representation of psychic unity. The conscious and unconscious have reached a level of harmony. They have come to recognize and accept each other. Although there is a new sense of wholeness, the psyche has not fully integrated its two parts. The two halves of the psyche are depicted as children, because there still needs to be one final act of development. Before the last step can be achieved, however, all struggle between old and new perspectives must be transcended. The new identity that has been reborn is not quite ready to endure the full power of the sun’s strength.
In terms of the soul’s journey, the seeker has traveled the path lit by the forbidding moon. At last, the sun has risen and trepidation has been replaced with hope. The seeker has experienced the death of his old self. His new life emerges from the nurturing properties of the sun, and he can, once again, perceive the world from a childlike perspective.
The Sun’s correlating number is nineteen. When added together, the sum is ten. Ten symbolizes union and attainment. Like the Wheel of Fortune, the Sun has the protecting qualities of the mystical circle, the mandala. Its center represents divine sprit and wholeness. The Sun Tarot card represents a childlike intelligence enhanced with a new confidence. The Sun refers to the spontaneous knowledge that arises from a childlike perspective. This is an element of inherent intuition, the type of intuition that provides us with a sense of knowing without physical evidence. Like children, there is purity to one’s intentions. In a Tarot reading, The Sun depicts a level of naivety or innocence. Issues of doubt and negativity are cast aside. One can find the world as a place of endless possibility.
The negative aspect to the Sun Tarot card is represented by those in constant pursuit of the pleasures of physical bliss. These are individuals that remain fixed in attaining things that provide bodily satisfaction. They can be thoughtless and cruel.
Upright Sun Tarot Card Meanings In A Tarot Reading
In its upright position, the Sun's Tarot card meanings refer to periods of hope and happiness. Success will be attained. Projects or endeavors will reach completion. This is a time of celebration. You may find time spent with family and friends to be emotionally gratifying. You will feel healthy and free and may experience a change of perspective. Optimism replaces negativity. New possibilities are in the near future. In a Tarot reading, the Sun indicates the importance of solving your problems with rational and conscientious thinking. This is also a time to utilize your creative energies. Friendships and romantic relationship will prosper. There may be travel to a warm and sunny place.
Happiness and Joy

Prosperity
Creativity and self-expression

~~Justice~~
Justice stands for balance and equality. Justice represents the influence of our inner self and our conscience. Justice (depicted as female) symbolizes a mature sense of self. She has found her place amongst her fellows. She is dependable, worldly, and has reached a level of prosperity and status. Yet, she still struggles with a feeling that all is not as it should be. This has to do with fact that although she has mainly served her ego and conscious mind, she has lost touch with the yearnings of her unconscious. She must, once again, strike a balance between the two.
When Justice appears in a tarot spread, it informs you that the journey you are on may have to take an entirely new direction in order for justice to be served. With the repression of unconscious desires, one may find that their conscious mind either becomes consumed with things from younger age or there may be a deep depression that has slowly settled in. This is what some refer to as a mid-life crisis. In a tarot reading, Justice signifies the time to change one’s perspective. There is a need to accept the second part of one’s life. It is a journey into the realm of the inner self and requires a shift of focus away from the outer aspects of worldly interests.
Justice acknowledges the need for a moral inventory. Things must be put back into balance, regardless of the consequences. Although there is a basic unfairness and lack of balance in the ordinary order of things, the true imbalance lies within the self and not in outer, worldly realities. When we strive to meet the destinies of our journeys, we must find the strength to abide by the principles of the universe. These principles are the laws which govern us. They must be learned and we must comply. This must be done to avoid serious consequences.
The corresponding number for Justice is eleven. Eleven is the number of insight, idealism, wisdom and compassion. It embodies the universal laws of our world. With this in mind, it is important to acknowledge that Justice’s sword is double edged. One aspect represents law and order and the other aspect represents mercy and consideration. We must assimilate each side of the sword in order to reach enlightenment.
The negative aspect to Justice is when the laws which govern us are misused or applied with too much rigidity. Much of the injustice of the world today has its roots in human failings. The scales of equality are tipped and the virtue of mercy is lost and forgotten.
Upright Justice Tarot Card Meanings In A Tarot Reading
When the Justice tarot card appears upright in your online tarot reading, it usually is a good indicator that there is a decision that must be made in order for your life to take a new direction. This decision typically requires a great deal of consideration and contemplation. This is a milestone, often influencing the course of your fate. Its tarot card meanings usually refer to the need to take the time to restructure your life according to moral principles. It would be in your best interest to explore other points of view. There may be issues of justice and fairness. You may have to become accountable for your choices. Should you have acted in an unfair matter, it may come back to haunt you. At times, the Justice card can indicate the onset of legal issues. Things should proceed with fairness and integrity. The outcome should be positive. You may receive help from an outside party that can tip the legal matter in your favor.

Heaven and Earth Spread
This spread is unusual in that the Major and Minor Arcana are used separately, which seems to have been the method of tarot divination before Etteilla (late 18th cent.) suggested mixing the two in the "Great Pack" . Each deck is separately shuffled and cut, after which they are laid face down in order; when the spread is complete, they are turned up and interpreted in the same order. Naturally, the Major Arcana are spread in Heaven and the Minor Arcana in Earth.
Quaternio Nuptialis (Marriage Quaternity)
0. Ego (Pivot)
I. Coniux (Spouse)
II. Umbra (Shadow)
III. Genus (Sibling)
IIII. Ipse (Self)
0. Ego (Pivot)
The deck of Majors is used to construct the Marriage Quaternity. The Pivot card is laid face down first, and it becomes the center for the rest of the spread. Choosing this card defines the juncture between Heaven and Earth, that is, between the eternal archetypal realm and the temporal world of ordinary life. Psychologically, it represents Ego Consciousness at the intersection of the two realms; when it is revealed (turned up), it suggests the stance to be taken with regard to the eternal and temporal structures that will be revealed by the remaining cards. Alternately, if you prefer to work with a significator, you may use the significator as the Pivot, since it represents ego consciousness at the moment of divination.
The next four cards are laid out counterclockwise, as four rays around the Pivot, beginning in the West. (The tags West, South, etc. are to help you remember the positions.) If you want to distinguish reversed meanings for the trumps, you should consider the bottoms of the cards to be toward the center of the circle. These cards represent four principal archetypes in a structure called the "Marriage Quaternio," especially as it appears in the Cross-cousin Quaternity (Jung, Aion 63-4, 209-52, MC 101, 185, 425-6).

Dearest hearts,
Lately I've been guided to anchor and emit Divine love, I know I'm not the only one. For I sense a whole group of light beings doing the same, maybe not the same type of meditation but amazing energy work through the heart chakra.
I've been on this healing, soothing, frequency band of Divine Love for a few days now and I believe it will continue on through the weekend when the majority of the collective consciousness is also focusing on LOVE on February 14th.
I feel surrounded by a beautiful pink wave of love, it's like a healing balm. My affirmations lately are alot about being, choosing Divine love, so it was a nice synchronicity this morning when I pulled out a card from the Triple Goddess deck (found on lightworkers.com) and the message was about divine love and the journey home.
I wonder if any of you are also experiencing this enhanced focus on Divine love lately?
Here is the message I received....
The Journey Home
I was shown a fledgling learning to fly. Its first efforts were very feeble, but as it used its wings more and more, they became stronger until it found the freedom of flight and was able to soar to great heights and fly great distances without any effort. I heard the words: Faith comes with practice. Live by faith until it becomes rocklike, unshakable, and find the true freedom of the Spirit. -Eileen Caddy
Soul Message: We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. -A Course in Miracles
Everyday Encounters: It is time to slow down, open the door and meet your destiny. Immerse yourself in nature. Look into the mystery of life with new eyes. Something magical is afoot. The time is now to find right relationship between body, soul and spirit.
Nature's Healers: Shooting Star
Fourth Chakra
One regret, dear world, that I am determined not to have when I am lying on my deathbed is that I did not kiss you enough. –Hafiz
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trust, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails...... –Corinthians 13:4-8
Chakra Attributes: (Color: Green) (Function: Love)
Healing Essence of the Chakra: Located in the region of the heart and between the shoulder blades, it is the area of the body where love resides, in the cave of the heart. The ecstasy of love teaches us to let go and trust in the world, ultimately transcending the flames of sexual passion and emptying our life, giving spirit and spirituality into the world.
Healing Flower: Rose
Keywords: Love, Unconditional Love, Surrender, Compassion, Forgiveness, Grace, Peace
Affirmations: I am unconditionally loving of myself and others. There is an infinite supply of love in the world. I am love.
Infinite Love....OMni

Any insight would be greatly appreciated :) Much love, Karen

“Not losing or giving away your power. Keeping your dignity. Fighting for what you need in order to be who you are. Standing up for yourself. Willing to challenge those who stand in the way of who you are. Unwilling to conform to someone else’s ideas for you even if they think they know better what you need.”- Five of Swords
I spent a lot of time today thinking about my love for writing. I have multiple books spinning around in my mind, slowly being written one article at a time. I thought about how I love writing so much and how I’m still wanting to link that with an income. I love writing so much that my perferred way of doing spiritual counseling is via email, even though people seem to prefer seeing me in person. And again even in person I spend more time taking notes of the messages coming out and then giving said notes to the clients in the end. What can I say? I am a starving artist writer.
I’m not starving for money only either. I’m starving for readers, for channeling messages that might actually bring some truth to a person, for the joy that comes from knowing that I am fulfilling my life purpose. The test seems to be, “Are you willing to fulfill your life purpose as a writer even if the readers never come?”
The answer is yes. So what if I end up being that tree that falls that no one hears or sees. If I died right now and Archangel Michael asked me what the highlight of my life was I would say, “I liked a lot of little things in my life but as far as personal joy that seemed to come effortlessly, nothing really compared to the happiness I felt when I was writing my blogs, my articles, my chapters….”
The five of swords seems to be reflecting this “I will win” attitude because even if I lose at this writing thing I’ve already won because anytime I get the computer to myself and get to write something I am already winning. And yes people around me wish I would do something else that was more....that created easier results of basic success. I want that too but if I was to let the writing go I would be letting a part of me go not to mention I would be cutting of a very real connection to Archangel Michael because he does channel through my writing sometimes.
As I sit here looking at and reflecting on the 5 of swords I think maybe it isn't always about a lose/lose situation. At this moment when I look at it the card seems to be saying to me, "You've fought to keep the real you alive. And maybe the real you is a loser to other people. But without the "real you" any other "winning" wouldn't feel the same and probably wouldn't be lasting. True happiness comes from fulfilling your life purpose and the goals of your spirit. You've been fighting for years to keep the real you alive and present. Maybe you don't need to fight for a place in this world anymore. Maybe now you can just get on with being YOU."

Like all spirituality bounded people I read tarots. Been doing so for many years. It is a hobby that I have found completely accurate at times.
Today when I read it I got
1. The wand Queen - which is suppose to symbolized me. I don't ask it concerning other people. I really don't like minding people business with my tarots.
2. The Hermit - which symbolized caution
3. The Emperor - which suppose to symbolized a man in my life.
I think the cards are telling me to be careful of who I choose for my soul mate. Over the years I seen the cards be right. I guess something is looking out for me.
I pulled a separate card out by chance is shows prosperity. - it was the nine of pentacles.
However if anyone out there can read these signs better than me. I will greatly appreciate you input. Bye

In this article I cover the Minor Arcana, and try to give structure to something I have long considered the most tedious part of learning the Art of Tarot.
My point of view on the Minor Arcana comes from Paul Fenton-Smith.
His book, “The Tarot Revealed” has been companion to my Rider-Waite deck since I picked up the Art.
It is his wisdom that I tend to defer to, and his interpretations that I have taken as my own.
Do take this article with a grain of salt, as the views expressed here are my own and may differ from each practitioner to the next.
Numbered ace to ten, with four court cards, the Minor Arcana cover fifty six of the seventy eight cards of the Tarot.
I shall cover the non court cards separately from the court cards, addressing each as a theme and by their individual suits.
The Four Suits
Each of the four suits represents an element, which is tied to a concept.
This element and concept is also used in the court cards.
Suit/Element/Concepts
Wands/Fire/Action, Passion
Cups/Water/Emotions, Relations
Swords/Air/Thoughts, Ideas
Pentacles/Earth/Material wealth, CareerRelations
above refer to any connection between two or more people, not necessarily limited to the romantic variety.
The Non Court Cards
Each of the four suits has ten non court cards, with each of the suits telling a different story. However, the numbers on each card represent a theme.
Card/Theme
Ace/Beginnings
Two/Decisions
Three/Growth
Four/Consolidation
Five/Change
Six/Stability
Seven/Perseverance
Eight/Strength
Nine/Re-assessment
Ten/Completion
Putting the theme together with the concept of the suit, it becomes easier to get a grasp of each of the forty non court cards of the Minor Arcana. E.g. the Four of Swords according to the two charts above would mean “consolidation” of “thought”.
The Court Cards
There are two ways to interpret court cards.
Firstly, each of the cards may represent people. In this case, it is possible that each of the cards represent a certain Zodiac. Alternatively, each of the cards may represent qualities of people.
Secondly, the court cards may also represent an element very much like the suits.
However, they all share a certain theme as well. Since the former is in contention between different schools of Tarot, I shall focus on the second method.
Card/Element/Theme
Page/Air/News, Ideas
Knight/Fire/Action
Queen/Water/Emotions
King/Earth/Results
Putting the theme of the court cards together with the suit, I usually interpret each card as an elemental expression of an elemental concept. E.g. the Knight of Swords would mean the “fire of air”; that is to say thoughts or ideas put into action.

The magician, is a card of great possibilities....
He is the opposite of the fool whom there is no knowledge and no idea what her wants and let himself go with the wind.
He is power incarnate. A physical demostration of power.
As in the cards, you see that all the suits of the minors are stated in the magician. He has the outward appearance of a capable man and has the ability to make his goals come to life.
In most cards there is the infinity sign in the picture. it shows the infinite powers of a magician. Prior to actions, all the potential in the universe is gathered. All possibilities are able to present itself....
Next.... you see that in the cards most magician has a table with the tools which are the minor suits... this means the choices and the resources to make everything possible, you need to choose.... it means to choose to act or remain inert.
Wisdom is in the card of the magician. it is outwardly shown.... you see the tools his skills all laid out.... unlike the high priestess..... which is hidden....
He points to the heavens and points to the earth. this action has several significance.
1) it means, "may my will be done..." the act of magic requires preparations, and the art of conceptualising the illusion or the act. hence very strong will. another more reportoire manner of speech is "May the heaven's will be manifested on earthly means...."
2) it could also mean of heaven and of earth there is only me to make the changes which is required because i am at the point of action. When the Buddha was born, it was rumored that the child pointed to the heavens and the earth in the same manner....
For power, it is very powerful card.... yet there is a dark sign. power uncontrolled and used for dark deeds....
Bearing in mind, HERMES and THOTH are both trickers gods....
HERMES often tricks other gods to his ends.
THOTH tricked RA to give up this powers and even won a nite from him in a chess game.
It could mean that there is a smooth talking sales man trying his luck to trick you....
Or what it is may not be what it seems.......
Yet.... it is the card I and the card of action...... Binary code... 0 to 1. 1 is again power on!!!!.

Tarot and all forms of divination are all methods for guessing the future based on the omens of today. These forms of divination has been passed down through the ages and have records on how they should be used correctly.
However, many people do not trust these guesses in the future as they state that these are without basis and with logic. They lack belief and faith, which is essential upon the use and operation of tools for divination. Moreover they view divination as random without a specific purpose or motive. When the reading or the diviner tells these people their fortunes, due to their lack of faith and concentration in the cards, the result proves to be false.
Yet an equal number of people can attest to the correctness of these methods to divine into the future. Being a Tarot reader, I would use tarot as and example. Tarot is an art of fortune telling. It is the most powerful tool in the Western tradition in which fortunes are told. There are several stories on the origin of Tarot. Some say it is an art, which has existed since the time of the pyramids. Some say that it is an art of gypsies
However, the first traces of the cards are form in the 14th century in the form of the Visconti-Sforza deck. The fact is it contains many icons and images which Psychiatrist, Sigmund Freud and management Guru, Carl Jung has mentioned in their books.
The reason why these people can use and believe in Tarot is the fact that tarot is a recorded system. The meanings of the 78 cards, the system of the spreads and the kabbalah have existed for ages. Individuals add their own meaning to the cards and come up with decks in their own images. These individuals have experiences with readings and through the records of these readings they develop their meanings and understanding of how better to divine the future. For instance, the 3 of swords upright in a reading concerning relationships is often referred to the card of sorrow and most tarot readers will in the same way. This method of recording readings and divination is similar to the methods of a doctor treating a patient.
Through the ages, the use of medicine developed from an art, which is random to an science with logic and system. How was this possible? In ancient times, healers and doctors did not really record the methods of how an illness is developed, what are the symptoms and how is it treated. These healers and doctors practiced through word of mouth and much knowledge is lost. It was only during the times of the greeks, the time whereby writing is developed that cases of illness are recorded, the types of medication used. As these information is useful to the society, a lot of effort and money has been placed in the preservation of these records and so the medicine became more and more accepted as a science. Yet medicine is also unpredictable. The most common of diseases could still kill if the patient, who is taking the medication, lacks the belief in that it will cure him of illness. New diseases and uncertainties are constantly developed. Hence there is research and development of new medications and treatments.
In view of motives, Divination and medicine are similar. One can aid the person in the curing of subconscious anxiety whereas the other cures the person physically. Both have established systems, which could be recorded and developed. Both can have repeatability in results. However, divination is not seen in positive light as there are many in the field who does it out of selfish and self fulfilling reasons. Moreover, these individuals tend to bend the readings or deceive the clients in order to achieve gains in their favor instead of the actual act of helping others. It is my sincere hope that in the future there are organizations which could develop the arts of divination in the positive manner. That is the reason for me to teach others Tarot and make them aware of the positive manner to use this art to act as a medicine to heal and not to deceive.
I leave you with an excerpt for the Alchemist.
"When people consult me, it's not that I'm reading the future; I am guessing at the future. The future belongs to God, and it is only he who reveals it, under extraordinary circumstances. How do I guess at the future? Based on the omens of the present. The secret is here in the present. If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it. And if you improve on the present, what comes later will also be better. Forget about the future, and live each day according to the teachings, confident that God loves his children. Each day, in itself, brings with it an eternity."

The Hermit
Of the most difficult climb upward lies also the most trying search inwards.
Alone at the peak and alone within, The Hermit bows his head in meditation and gentle quiescence to envision the light before him, glowing within. His forehead, home of the third spiritual eye, touches his magickal staff held upright in his left hand of intuition. His mind’s energy is the vehicle that wills the natural fluidic transmission of thought to descend the staff of willpower. It penetrates the ice snow ground of the unexplored unconscious to delve deep into the sacred space of archaic archetypal images.
With the guiding force light of the eternal spark of the God father sun, he illuminates the cavernous spaces within in search of monsters and angels.
These are the monsters of the fearing psyche, where within, like on the astral plane, living things are symbols. These symbolic monsters are our fears. The beasts of denial, indolence, anger and hatred breed side by side with the horrible creatures of hurt from out past made manifest as tentacles that strangle us and keep us imprisoned. There are the bestial forces of unreasonable stress and worry, the low frequency menace of depression and affliction, abuse and addiction and the suffocating nameless forms of sloth and strife.
All these things and the others that are borne of this realm are warred with not with the brunt of violence directed inwards but with the loving gentle light of awareness and truth, our inborn angels.
We must know and understand our monsters before we can overcome them.
The light of knowing oneself illuminates these terrible forms and gives it shape and names.
Name thy monsters.
Names have power and so naming them gives you power over them. Overpower them with the great light of wisdom, love, understanding and knowledge which may be found in all hearts, like angels cradled in their holy temple, which is ultimately in your heart of hearts.
To find that temple, one must retreat regularly into the silence, into your innermost being. Let the hermit who is also your inner, elder guide, direct your minds eye and understanding inwards. Withdraw from the world of noise and movement and rampant desires and be still like a candle within.
Only in the stillness can one come to appreciate the lasting resonance of God and listen to the Voice of the power that keeps one grounded and centered.
Only in silence can one begin to see the innate wisdom of all our souls and find the sustaining powers that helps us dominate the nightmares within.
Use the power of the inner light to learn and reflect upon one’s being. Only through self-knowledge can we understand the way to deal with our inner darkness.
Spend time alone.
Meditate on visions that bring peace, on words that bring solace. Breathe deeply and reassuringly. Let the silence comfort you, let the quietude bring you to your inner sanctuary where your angels are there ready to help you face your inner demons so that none of them can harm you ever again.
May your great and wise Hermit self lead you to where you wish to grow.

Strength in Rider Waite / lust in Thoth.
One of the two more striking differences between the Thoth and RW deck concerning STRENGTH/LUST is the order and the name. Crowley maintains the traditional ordering of the trump at 11 but changes the name to LIST instead. IN doing so, he expanded the range of influence behind the card while adding to it a greater sense of active dynamism and energy that wasn’t so outright in the RW. concerning the numbering, I personally feel that since LUST is indicative of the energy that drives the WILL and as WILL is associated with the magician, 11, being crowleys number of magickal expansion is very appropriate . The 8 in RW also seems highly attuned to this concept since the sideways 8 is a lemniscates above the head of the lady and also the magician. There appears to be a connection between the two numbers both concerning the magician and his directive. 8 is also the number of ‘female magic’ according to tradition.
The other difference concerns the ‘energy’ or tone of the card. In comparison, the imagery in RW appears more calm, docile and subtle while the Thoth exudes a energetic activity, overt power and obvious simmering fire, like that of a volcano about to erupt. In the same vein, there is a tame and gentle feel to the RW while LUST shows domination and ferociousness. This is seen in the way the scarlet woman rides the beast using a harness like on a horse while the decent lady of the RW uses just her hands to scratch and comfort the lion as one would playfully do to a pet dog. Babalon is wild and naked, her head thrown back in ecstasy while in RW, it is the lion that is in ecstasy while the lady is fully clothed in virgin white and subdued just like the beast. This onctrast seems to go against each other. Shamelessness and modesty.
While the feminine principle is being represented in the RW by the lady in white with her crown of flowers, Crowleys woman displays her essence embodied in the Holy Graal. The ten rays of light that appears to emanate from the Ten Sephiroth above the scared cup could very well signify our entire self (in the form of the map of the tree of life) returning back into the cup via dissolution. The other ten circles in the background of the card could indicate the scattered emanations of the sephiroth that is a direct result of the dissolution , the chaos that follows before the order is restored by a diety that lusts to create. Other patterns of Tens in the LUST card are the ten snakes and the ten heads counting the Babylon and the obscured head of the figure just below the limb of the beast. IN total, this counts up to 50. Five sets of tens which seem to correspond to the 50 gates of Binah in the kabbalah. But Maybe I’m just reading too much into it.
Between the two cards, RW imagery covers more traditional forms of nature,displaying mountains, trees, land, and flowers while the THOTH imagery ventures into mythological and primal realms including snakes (reminiscent of kundalini serpent power) and crowley’s 7 aspects. I personally feel that the seven are all beings driven by lust as understood as passion, even though they each belong to a different realm of being and their passions are driven to different pursuits. Likewise, in RW strength is inherent in the strength of the lion now tamed by the tamed lady with such strength plus the strength of nature to withstand the worst of humanity’s abuse.
Color wise, Crowley’s card is volcanic brown with fiery reds focused in the grail while the RW maintains a quiet evening glow like that of a setting sun, again close to the temperament of the card.
The signs of leo is present in RW as the lion itself while in thoth, leo appears more as a symbol while the ebast plays the role of Therion. There are no Hebrew letters in the RW.
Spiritually, RW’s strength deals more with symbols that are easily recognizable and translatable using traditional ideas from alchemy/astrology (the lion/leo), psychology (taming animal desires in the lady’s act) and osmic principles like the feminine forces (the lady herself) Crowley on the other hand uses his specific thelemic imagery and its attending cast of deities to construct a visual story of a process. The dissolution of the self into the godhead is the process. RW seems to function like one part of a process, a specific element. To me, Crowley’s LUST card has a far deeper and richer self-perpetuating meaning. Its more alive, like a gate card that Pollack suggests.
