Card of the Day – Strength – Friday, August 23, 2019

Posted on August 22, 2019 Updated on August 22, 2019

Depending upon where you live, your day is either spent at the last degree of the Sun in Leo, or by the time you wake up in the morning it has entered Virgo. Either way, this Strength card is quite suitable.

Leo energy can be filled with drama today, and the best thing you can do is appease the beast. Do Not Engage. Drama and anger met with only kind words has no outlet, so the beast will go quiet, or look for someone else to bother. As for Virgo, the energy can be very critical, and you may find someone over-analyzing your every move and nitpicking you with some serious criticism. After all, Venus and Mars are already in Virgo, so you will see this everywhere, even across social media. Do Not Engage.

With the Strength card, you can control a situation, or person, without appearing to, by focusing on a more subtle approach, using soft control rather than brute force. Keep this card in mind over the next four to six weeks, and let it be your guide to avoid confrontation and unnecessary drama and anxiety.

See you here tomorrow!

Featured Card of the Day – 5 of Cups – 78 Tarot Mythical

Posted on August 18, 2019 Updated on August 8, 2019

Keywords

Loss, grief, regret, choice

Element

Astrological Association

THE CARD’S STORY BY: REBECCA SINZ

I illustrated a gargoyle on a high pedestal, five cups worked into the architecture itself. Gargoyles served as water spouts on many buildings, so work well with the water element. Three fallen cups are in front of her spilling water over the edge, and two remaining cups stand beside her. Her pose is one of distress, in the background, a river dividing her from “home,” the castle. Also behind her is the bridge that could get her home if she could focus on anything but the spilled cups. I added storm clouds clearing to further illustrate the hope with the despair if you just look and see it.

THE CARD’S MESSAGE BY TRISH SULLIVAN

A Gargoyle sits, contemplating her inner turmoil in familiar surroundings as the world goes by. She is broken and distraught, unable to face the world, and unable to drag herself to the safety of her castle. Loss and regret have hit you hard, you need time to heal before you can move on. Let tears flow for now, knowing happiness and joy will return to your life in time. You may not see it now, but when you are ready, you will. In the meantime, take care of yourself and look for small joys when possible.

MYTHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION: GARGOYLE

The term gargoyle originates from the French legend of La Gargouille, a grotesque dragon who terrorized Rouen. They are carved into the architecture for the practical purpose of draining water away, but also served to scare the local peasants into the sanctuary of the church, as they showed the “evil” living outside. The way in which the gargoyles drain away water – in the five of cups, the tears of the grief-stricken made it an appropriate figure for this card.

THE CARD’S STORY BY: DHARMA T LEFEVRE

I chose Medusa because she was considered powerful, but was also a victim of her own fate and decisions. This card speaks of heavy choices you must make, and the things that are stopping you from making wise choices. I personally get in my own way a lot, from anything like overthinking to even chickening out on making a big decisions , so the lesson of this card not only fits with a lot of what I do to myself, but what happens when I let my own fears get the better of me. Medusa’s eyes are not only blindfolded but she is unaware that her own snakes are what seems to be doing the most damage and the chains that hold her back, can easily be broken.

THE CARD’S MESSAGE BY TRISH SULLIVAN

Medusa stands, lost, blindfolded and alone. She feels the swords pressing in, the manacles around her wrists. But doesn’t try to free herself…if she did, she would realize the chains are fragile and wispy, the swords held by her own snakes – one dangles from her own wrist. You need to open your eyes, and realize your own power to change the situation. You’re not trapped. You’re not alone. It may feel like it, but that’s your fear and doubt talking, skewing your perception and keeping you a prisoner of your own mind. There is a way through this, a way to change this. Have faith in yourself, shake free, and let yourself see the situation clearly. Move out of your own way!

MYTHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION: MEDUSA

Medusa was a snake-haired monster, able to turn humans to stone with a single look in Greek mythology. But she wasn’t born that way – she was made monstrous by Athena, for defiling the sanctity of Athena’s temple, having been seduced and raped by Poseidon. It was a punishment, for her vanity and for the desecration. But it also gave her great power – no man would ever be able to attack her again – the snakes warned her of impending danger, and her eyes were a weapon. Only the hero Perseus was able to defeat her, and even then it took some help from the Gods. Given the fact that Medusa is largely punished for boasting that she’s prettier than Athena, and her destiny is sealed from that point, we felt she made a fitting depiction of this card.

Card of the Day – 8 of Pentacles – Saturday, August 17, 2019

Posted on August 16, 2019 Updated on August 16, 2019

With almost all of the energy sitting in the Fire column, and Mars at the anaretic degree of Leo, you may wish to focus on summer’s last hurrah and go have some fun, but this energy will be better used if you apply the creativity which is on tap to complete some important projects. The 8 of Pentacles is pretty much a no-nonsense card, and that critical Virgo energy With its attention to detail will be here soon enough.

Perhaps you have a deadline looming and feel you are faced with no choice today, but to keep your nose to the grindstone, the pedal to the metal, and burn the midnight oil. I think you get the drift. Something in your life requires your undivided attention, and that may mean foregoing any festivities that have been calling your name. Sometimes it is all merely part of adulting, but your efforts today will indeed provide great rewards down the line. Go over your To-Do List with a fine-tooth comb, put all of your details in order, perhaps a few finishing touches, so that you may begin to move forward with your changes and leave behind any nonsense which has been dogging you.

See you here tomorrow!

Featured Card of the Day – Justice – 78 Tarot Mythical

Posted on August 16, 2019 Updated on August 8, 2019

Keywords

Fairness, balance, justice, morality

Element

Air

Astrological Association

Libra

THE CARD’S STORY BY: ENAMORTE

Having an affinity for ancient Egypt, I chose Ma’at, Egyptian goddess of Justice. She is often depicted with wings, and the scales in front of her are where she weighs the heart of the deceased against her ostrich feather when they enter the underworld to judge its purity. She represents fairness and truth, which are very important for this card. In the background is the astrological symbol for Libra, the sign of balance.

THE CARD’S MESSAGE BY TRISH SULLIVAN

Ma’at carefully considers the scales before her. A soul has to be pure to enter the fields of Aaru, and so each person’s heart is weighed against the feather of Ma’at, goddess of Justice. If the soul is pure enough, the heart will be equal to, or lighter than the feather. What goes around comes around – the consequences of your actions will keep making themselves known. Build a commitment within your life to being fair and honest with those around you, understanding that we are all connected, and that how you act may cause far-reaching results. Don’t consider the rewards, but do it because it’s right…knowing that the Universe will give you your due in time. Be aware that past misdeeds may come and bite you.

MYTHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION: MA’AT

Ma’at is the goddess of justice, truth and balance of the Egyptian pantheon and she was the personification of these concepts. Her role within the gods was to keep order in the world, to keep the stars moving, the wheel of the year spinning, and to prevent chaos from claiming the world. She also dealt with the weighing of souls as they entered the underworld, as each heart was weight against a feather or her hieroglyph. As the Egyptian Goddess of Justice, we felt that no other character would be better for this card

THE CARD’S STORY BY: JOANNA NELSON

The mysterious Yeti is a rare creature, reluctant to venture out. But with the snow blowing at his back and an urge to follow his heart, he emerges from his cavern high atop the mountain and steps to the edge. He realizes that beyond the edge is a ledge, giving him the courage to step down, and begin an exciting new journey. Bursting with potential, he is ready to embrace any opportunity this journey offers. He has no fear, thanks to his snowy companion Frosti, who will help him navigate while encouraging him to keep moving forward. Armed with a sack of resources and a renewed motivation, the mysterious Yeti embraces this new adventure one step at a time, forging his own path, ignoring uncertainty, anxiously waiting for the treasures he will discover.

THE CARD’S MESSAGE BY TRISH SULLIVAN

Th e Fool is wonderfully ignorant of any danger ahead of him. Unburdened and pure of heart, he steps out on a new pathway, determined to enjoy himself, and open to the possibilities and adventures before him You’re being offered a chance to make some real changes and start a new path, but it’s a choice, not a certainty. This could be an opportunity to move outside of your comfort zone – the Fool is here to suggest that you’ve gone as far as you can within your current sphere. But this is on you. You could stay, and play it safe, or you could learn more and carve out a new future for yourself. You just need to make a leap of faith and take those first few steps…

MYTHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION: YETI

A yeti is a fantastical creature that appears in the myths of several countries. Stories of these wild, humanoid, snow creatures are found around the globe, from Nepal to British Columbia and North America. Th e term Yeti is found in legends of Himalayan people, depicted as a primitive man/ape who was a mountain based deity. These creatures have become the stuff of urban legend, with many people hunting and tracking sights of Bigfoot, Sasquatch and the Abominable Snowman, alongside many other names. Given the exploratory nature of Th e Fool card, we felt that a Yeti was a wonderful depiction of a pure creature taking his first steps into a larger world.
