The Hermit
Tonight’s the night our Hermit makes his debut!
From 7 to 9 pm, The Hermit’s Lamp is hosting the opening night celebrations for Art in the Hermetic Tradition.
The show features artwork by artists and Hermeticists from across Ontario and beyond.

My own Hermit was of course illustrated by Los Angeles artist Ivan Minsloff. I wish he could be here for the show but he’s cheering us on from a far.
But if you’re in Toronto, come join us all in person and see the show for yourself.
If tonight’s no good, not to fear. Art in the Hermetic Tradition runs until July 28th.
The Hermit’s Lamp is located at 398 Vaughn Road, Toronto.

High Priestess in Hierophant's Clothes
The Moon moves into Taurus today and stays there until Sunday.
If you look at this transit through the eyes of the Tarot, it would be like the High Priestess is dressed as the Hierophant. She’s sitting before two acolytes and sharing the secrets she usually guards.
The Moon in Taurus, or High Priestess in the Hierophant’s clothes, is a time of spiritual and emotional certitude.
There’s a sense that the truth can be explained, understood and incorporated into daily life. Rules can and should be followed.
Instead of trying to force others to recognize what you know to be certain, try using this time to simply share your emotional, intellectual and spiritual perceptions.
Celebrate the diversity of spirit in our world, while figuring out for yourself what rules, spiritual or otherwise, work best for you.

#18 The Moon
Thursday, June 14, 2012
#18 – The Moon
Things might seem a little dark today but don’t despair. It’s always night before it’s day. The moon card represents this darkness before dawn.
You might be challenged to face your fears, or at least name them so you can see whether they’re really as powerful as all that. Things often seem a lot scarier in the dark than they do the next day.
Try taking some time today to really explore those things that you usually shy away from. Psychic energy is especially strong and it will be well worth your while to find some silence and listen carefully to your inner voice.
Secrets and mystery, hazy half-truths – they’re all part of the moon’s power. How you feel might prove to be more informative than what you see. Pay attention to the shadows, it’ll be light soon.
