Horseshoe Spread Example Report ASTRID TAROT ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ Card 1: The past. Card 5: The attitudes of other people. Card 2: The present. Card 6: What you should do. Card 3: Hidden influences at work. Card 7: The outcome. Card 4: Obstacles to be overcome. CARD 1: THE PAST The Chariot Card 7 In the Chariot tarot card, a man in a crown stands in a luxurious chariot drawn by two sphinxes. In mythology, the sphinx symbolises positive and negative forces which draw us through life and the mystery of the future. In some tarot decks, the conqueror is driven by two spirited horses who seem to be pulling apart from each other. The wheels of the chariot represent distress and disturbance. The card is evocative of Ancient Roman processions with victorious generals parading their armies through Rome. There is a word of warning, however. A common saying in Rome was "look not so proud for the Gods are jealous", meaning do not become so flushed with success as to behave arrogantly and anger the Gods, as many Roman rulers discovered to their cost. The Chariot is associated with the Cancer zodiac sign. The Meaning of The Chariot Tarot Card Unstoppable force. Trouble and adversity - perhaps already overcome. The force of destiny driving one to achieve great things. Victory and conquest in spite of the odds. Renewed motivation and optimism, travel and movement in general. Believe in yourself and you will achieve great things. Unexpected good news. Summary: ____________________________________________________________________________ CARD 2: THE PRESENT Judgement Card 20 The Judgement tarot card denotes the last Judgement in the conventional Christian sense. Archangel Michael is in the sky, sounding the last trumpet to hail the dead from their graves to rise up and be judged on their conduct in life. The Judgement tarot card is ruled by Pluto and associated with the fire element. The Judgement tarot card relates to death and rebirth. Although the card uses Christian symbolism, similar notions are found in Ancient Greek, Persian, Hindu and even Voodoo culture. Judgement signifies far-reaching decisions which cannot be reneged upon. The Meaning of the Judgement Tarot Card New potential. An opportunity which must not be ignored. A new project or decision which could impact the rest of your life. The evaluation of past efforts may be near at hand. Career success and enjoyment of past efforts. A call for fresh efforts. Rejuvenation, improvement, development and promotion. This card has a sense of immediacy - it speeds the pace of the rest of the cards in the reading and indicates that the results will come quicker than expected. Summary: ____________________________________________________________________________ CARD 3: HIDDEN INFLUENCES AT WORK The Eight of Swords The Meaning of The Eight of Swords Tarot Card Restriction. Feeling trapped and powerless. A run of bad luck. Crisis, conflict and calamity. Criticism, domination, imprisonment and turmoil. Bad news. Patient effort is required to remove yourself from a tricky situation. Help is at hand if you can only swallow your pride and ask for it. Restrictions will gradually fade. Summary: ____________________________________________________________________________ CARD 4: OBSTACLES TO OVERCOME The Six of Cups The Meaning of The Six of Cups Tarot Card Memories. Childhood. Nostalgia. Strong ties to the past - perhaps an old friend or lover is about to turn up. Things that have vanished. Past efforts are about to be rewarded. The answer to a specific question lies in a similar situation you found yourself in in the past. Past influences. You may be about to move nearer to your place of origin. Summary: ____________________________________________________________________________ CARD5: THE ATTITUDES OF OTHER PEOPLE The Knight of Cups The Knight of Cups is depicted as a young man, often with a fair complexion, riding a black charger. He is often casual in appearance. He is well travelled. The Meaning of The Knight of Cups Tarot Card The Knight of Cups is a good friend and a faithful lover. He is amiable, enthusiastic, passionate, graceful and poetic. This card signifies attraction, inducement, request, appeals, challenges and proposals. The Knight of Cups tarot card signals opportunities, invitations and offers. Summary: ____________________________________________________________________________ CARD 6: WHAT YOU SHOULD DO The Five of Pentacles The Meaning of The Five of Pentacles Tarot Card Money troubles. Poverty. Monetary loss and hardship. Destitution, error, failure and impoverishment. All is not lost: fresh opportunities await. You will not find yourself alone in this misfortune as others share your fate. Be careful not to go looking for emotional or financial support in the wrong place, however. Summary: ____________________________________________________________________________ CARD 7: THE OUTCOME The Sun Card 19 In the Sun tarot card, a naked child rides a white horse beneath a beaming sun. The boy holds up a banner. Behind him, sunflowers peek over a wall. The Sun tarot card conveys happiness. The glorious sun shines light and life across the universe. The child, riding bareback without so much as a bridle, represents perfect control between the conscious and unconscious mind. His nakedness indicates that he has nothing to hide. The sunflowers represent the four elements: earth, fire, air and water. The Meaning of the Sun Tarot Card Great joy. The Sun tarot card is very auspicious - indeed, it is arguably the best card in the pack. The Sun denotes success, happiness, glory and achievement, good health, pleasure and vitality. It often denotes summer and hot, sunny places. The Sun indicates joyful love affairs, happy reunions. Triumph, achievement, contentment, devotion, rewards and material wealth. The Sun is an omen of engagements, unselfish love and happy marriages. The Sun is also associated with children, sometimes indicating good news regarding offspring or that a long awaited baby will be born. Pleasure in daily existence.

    For Immediate Release ADRIENNE ELISE TARVER: THE SUN, THE MOON, AND THE TRUTH September 8, 2021 to January 2, 2022 Tarver debuts a new series of works on paper and a large- scale painting inspired by tarot and Afrofuturist imagery, marking the artist’s first solo museum presentation The Sun, the Moon, and the Truth is the first solo museum presentation of Brooklyn-based artist Adrienne Elise Tarver (b. 1985) and the second series in The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum’s newly established Aldrich Projects. Tarver debuts Manifesting Paradise (2020–ongoing), a suite of twenty-two mixed media works on paper based on the Major Arcana (major mysteries), the foundational card set of the centuries-old tarot deck, alongside Weary As I Can Be (2021). The vibrant colors and tropical settings that saturate these compositions—a fixture of her overall practice—aim to reclaim the perceptions of the exoticized, tropical seductress imparted on Black and brown women by Western civilization. Adrienne Elise Tarver Magician, 2020 Here, the faraway temptress meets another long-standing trope: the Black Courtesy of the artist Voodoo priestess, a treasury of esoteric wisdom. Adrienne Elise Tarver: The Sun, the Moon, and the Truth will be on view at The Aldrich September 8, 2021 to January 2, 2022. Conceived amidst the Covid-19 pandemic and the racial injustice movements of 2020, Manifesting Paradise marks a polar shift in the artist’s approach as she turns her analytical lens from the past to the future. Substituting investigations of origin stories with divinatory tokens and metaphysical forecasts, Tarver turns her attention forward in pursuit of effecting hope and solace during a time of vast uncertainties.

    0. THE FOOL This card represents youth, freedom, and the beginning of a jour- ney. The Fool is the wild card, capable of infinite possibilities and paths towards the future. It represents unlimited and unfettered freedom of the soul. In a negative context, this card can indicate naiveté and ignorance of the world, as well as reckless or risky behaviour that may put oneself or others into danger. I. THE MAGICIAN This card represents the realization of incredible potential. The Magician is creative, powerful, and awe-inspiring, often being seen as an ideal for those around them. In a negative context, this card warns against falling into mediocrity, as well as an inability to live up to one’s idea of greatness, or an inability to communicate meaningfully with others. It also indicates confusion, frustration, stagnation and succumbing to self-doubt or insecurity. II. THE HIGH PRIESTESS This card represents the power of knowledge and wisdom. The High Priestess’s inaction is a result of having done all that they can and knowing that the rest is in the universe’s hands, choos- ing to rely on their intuition, experience and intelligence to guide them. The High Priestess is calm and possesses extroardinary insight. In a negative context, this card can indicate a lack of personal harmony; someone whose judgement is clouded by stress and uncertainty, often overly concerned with the lives of others around them. III. THE EMPRESS This card represents the concept of motherhood, as well as the guidance and rulership of a matriarchal figure. The Empress has dominion over all life, and is the loving, nurturing figure of the Major Arcana.

    Get Started With Tarot A simple guide to start reading tarot NOW! By About Me I am Yashica from YashicasIntuition.com and I specialize in Intuitive Tarot Readings, Energy Healing, & Life Coaching. I am Certified in Life Coaching, Reiki (at the Master Level), & Tarot Reading. After experiencing a series of personal tragedies years ago, by the grace of this Great Universe, I ended up getting a tarot reading that changed the way I looked at life. This extraordinary experience led to a major spiritual transformation that has motivated me to dive into tarot, intuitive gifts that have been passed down from my ancestors, and energy healing head first. For over 7 years, I have been offering tools and information to guide and empower those that seek my intuitive counseling as well as the perspective and insight that the tarot brings. My tarot readings are often multi layered, pairing intuitive tarot with other tools such as oracle cards, Lenormand, runes, and accessing the Akashic Records at times. The wisdom and insight you will gain from a reading with me will allow you to grow and evolve as you navigate this thing we call "life". I do not do predictive style readings, but instead you will leave with information and tools to design your life as you see fit. 1 About Me During an Energy Healing session, I can help shift energy imbalances and clear energies that are not serving your higher good.

  • Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell a Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series
    Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell A Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series Part VIII: The Sixes Video Transcript https://youtu.be/pLmmJhJBn0Q INTRODUCTION Welcome to Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell. Closed captioning is provided for all videos in this lecture series. In this video installment, we’ll be covering the Sixes. The Sixes are where the flux of the previous Fives are restored to balance, and there’s a beauty to the symmetry. Six is the Pythagorean number of the Soul, and this is the Jungian psychological theory of Integration, where individual and collective consciousness merge. Here are the Lords of Victory, Pleasure, Science, and Success. In our solar system, Tiferet corresponds with the Sun and, in the Christian Trinity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Sixes designate the hypostases of the Son. I’m quoting that from Aleister Crowley in the Book of Thoth. The four guardian spirits of the Realm of Sixes in the Spirit Keeper’s Tarot are The Champion, The Memory Keeper, The Ferryman, and The Giver. Now let’s run a comparative analysis on how the Sixes are imagined in the Tarot de Marseilles, in which we’ll be referencing Etteilla, Papus, and MacGregor Mathers; then the tarot deck by Arthur Edward Waite illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith, referencing the Pictorial Key and my textbook Holistic Tarot; and the Thoth Tarot by Aleister Crowley illustrated by Lady Frieda Harris, consulting the Book of Thoth pg. 1 and relevant Thelemic texts by Crowley. The fourth system we’ll be studying is my deck, the Spirit Keeper’s Tarot.

  • Lessons in the Unfoldment of the Philosopher's Stone
    LESSONS IN THE UNFOLDMENT OF THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE by Delmar DeForest Bryant With Notes and Commentaries by Paul Foster Case This text was taken from a somewhat mangled digital copy and reformatted. Bold emphasis was put to Paul Foster Case’s commentaries which appear in parenthesis. Some sections which were not parenthetical in the original format where checked against other PFC references and were found to be definitely his quotes, as are various parenthetical commentary in the text unarguably is his own, so bolding emphasis was added accordingly. I appologize for anything I may have missed or inadvertantly added. Barry Ira Geller © 2005 The Erelim/Tetragram Project April 13, 2005 LESSONS IN THE UNFOLDMENT OF THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE by Delmar DeForest Bryant Commentaries by Paul Foster Case in Bolded Parenthesis Reformatted by Barry Ira Geller CHAPTER I "Behold I lay in Zion for the foundation, a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation. He that believeth shall not make haste." ---Isaiah: 28.16 No greater mystery was ever involved in human consciousness than that which is implied in the term "Philosophers' Stone." Although the greatest of mysteries, and one that seemingly defies analysis and baffles investigation, yet for that very reason if for no other, it fascinates and holds the minds of all who come in touch with the subject and credit the possibility of its attainment or discovery. Setting out in search for this wondrous Stone is very much like undertaking a journey to the end of the rainbow for that fabled pot of gold.
