#21 – The Universe

Dance and rejoice!  You deserve to celebrate after a long journey.  A phase in your life is coming to a close – it’s big but not scary.

This is a good day to reflect on what’s been happening in your life over the last long while.  Where were your successes and what would you rather leave behind?  How did all the little stories turn into a whole big narrative?

Review, laugh and maybe even cry, but don’t carry old burdens with you going forward.  Be free and open and willing to be vulnerable.  You’ve done what you can.  It’s time now to simply enjoy your own little slice of the universe.  You’ll have plenty of time to plan your next step tomorrow.

If you’re in the Salem, Massachusetts area next Saturday, April 21st, get down to The Griffen Theatre to see Tarot in Mixed Media: Thematic Explorations through Music, Spoken Word, Video and Dance!

It’s the debut show for Spiral Light Productions and it looks to be very entertaining.

Their theme is Tarot and they’ll be exploring the archetypes through tribal bellydance, storytelling, shamanic visions and music.

Watch the Icy River mixed media video below created by Margaret McGilvray and Griffex, with music by Calamus. It represents the High Priestess.

To see more videos go to their website, or better yet, go to the show!!

#11 Strength from Georgie's Tarot

#11 Strength

#11 – Strength

Learn to direct your inner wildness during this period of fiery intensity and your personal power is likely to grow.  Innocence and purity work together to balance your passion with wisdom.

Explore ways to act assertively but without aggression.  The gentle touch might go a lot further than a loud voice or an impetuous rage.

It’s a very creative time and you’re encouraged to allow yourself room to flourish.  Don’t be shy.  This is the moment to take action and move forward with plans you may have held off on until now.

Lego Man in Space and the Fool's Journey

April 13th, 2012 § 0 comments § permalink

Here’s a kind of crazy video that got me thinking about the Tarot.

You may have seen it on the news a few months back, and if you were in Canada, it would have been hard to miss.

Some guys decided to send a Lego man carrying a Canadian flag up into the cosmos. They built both the little man and the rocket that shot him 80 miles into the sky.

The Lego man was attached to a camera so his voyage was recorded and is quite nice to watch.

#21 The World from the Smith Waite Tarot

It was the images of the Earth from space that reminded me of the Tarot, and the World card in particular.

The World card represents movement beyond the boundaries of everyday existence into a further dimension.

It also represents the end of a long journey, one that ultimately leads right back to earth, and in Tarot, back to the Fool who starts the trip all over again.

#0 The Fool from the Smith Waite Tarot

The little Lego man is a perfect metaphor for this journey.

Not only is he made up of little components that can be rearranged just like a deck of cards. He’s a tiny Fool who leaps into the sky till he reaches beyond the earth, only to fall back again to start all over.

I like it.

Moon in Aquarius – High Priestess in the Star's Clothing

High Priestess in Star's Clothing

High Priestess in Star's Clothing

The Moon moves into Aquarius today and stays there until Monday.

Described in Tarot cards, this transit would be like the High Priestess is dressed as the Star. In other words, her robes are gone and she’s naked as the bird in the tree behind her.

The Moon in Aquarius, or High Priestess in the Star’s clothing, can sometimes be emotionally stressful. Hope may be in the air, but it’s a cautious hope.

Emotionally you feel like sharing, bubbling over with dreams for the future. But your mind keeps getting in the way, reminding you that dreams can sometimes be nightmares.

Try not to spend what could be a nice time double guessing yourself or listing off all the reasons things could go wrong. They might. But they probably won’t.

Be real, but not a wet blanket. Rather than smothering your dreams, direct them with intelligence.

Get down to work. Nothing exciting going on, except maybe the chance to get more done than you thought you would.

Follow the template and don’t worry about being particularly innovative today. It’s probably more important to just get it done.

To motivate yourself try remembering that what you’re working on now is setting you up for your future. Put in the effort and it’ll ultimately pay off.

I know we had this card yesterday, but it’s a good one. I’m happy it’s back ….

Victory is finally at hand. You’ve won the game and everyone’s cheering. It wasn’t always easy so the win is that much sweeter.

Have a good time and enjoy what you’ve worked so hard to master.

Your good fortune probably has a lot to do with staying true to your heart. Keep it up.

This isn’t an unexpected gift from the skies, it’s acknowledgement for doing something special. Good work.

History of the Ouija Board

April 11th, 2012 § 0 comments § permalink

The Ouija Board is a never-ending source of fascination … at least to me. And apparently to Mitch Horowitz, author of Occult America: White House Séances, Ouija, Masons and the Secret Mystic History of Our Nation.

In the Midnight Archive video below, Howrowitz describes the history of the Ouija Board. And it’s one interesting tale.

Like Tarot, Ouija is fun, but don’t be fooled into thinking it’s just a game.

Moon in Capricorn – High Priestess in the Devil's Clothing

The High Priestess dressed as the Devil

High Priestess as the Devil

The Moon moves into Capricorn today and will stay there until Friday.

If you were to describe this transit using the Tarot, you might say that the High Priestess is wearing the Devil’s clothing. The virginal goddess has gotten downright beastly.

The Moon in Capricorn, or High Priestess in the Devil’s clothing, is a period of potential internal conflict. The physical world might seem to draw you away from what you typically believe to be right.

You might feel driven or compelled by behaviours and attitudes that go against the grain of your morality. It could be liberating or disturbing, depending on your secrets.

Whatever’s going on though, don’t be too hard on yourself. Get obsessions out of your system, and learn what you can about yourself while you do so.

You should be ready to move on soon. There’s nothing wrong with a little focused physicality. Just don’t get stuck.
