  • Carment Totten
    Forests What were you, before they came for a hike, Before they kept walking off the trail, Before they came back with chainsaws And tore down your trees? Did you sing in the morning? Did you run, Around the block and then back home, greeting people in the early morning air? You were always a hard worker, or maybe that’s a search for your branches. Where are your bare bones, love? Did they give you to the lumberjack down the road, for sawdust? Did you get turned into the pages of a book, or the paper on which the next hit star wrote down Their first lyrics, the guitar riffs to make them famous? Maybe in our search for the pieces, we could see the world. Finally go into that city, maybe into an old morgue. I will hunt for your leaves, should you let me. I will replant what had been destroyed. Hazel Quiet! Quiet in the courtroom, I preach. Nothing is done, nothing is done! Fading memories beat back over, and Over, until you can’t see anymore; They crowd coffins, You might as well be laid in the ground. Flickers in the lights – In, out In, out Like a dog and a doggy door, We’re like the raven – Nevermore. I can’t see, so I dream, colors so Vivid that I scream. In these days, you’ll come and go; Come too fast, leave too slow And I’ll sit in the corner dreaming of The ladies who come and go, speaking Of Michaelangelo. Oh the cathedral? Was that even him? Do I dare to dream, to think Of the days gone by? I see hazel behind my eyes, and I Am a Knight of Cups – Sensitivity.

  • Major Arcana the Following Is the Journey of the Major Arcana
    The Major Arcana The following is the journey of the Major Arcana. We are going to go through them briefly together, but it is also super essential you spend time with this journey over the next week! This course is taught from the Angel Tarot, and you can use the Angel Tarot, or the Archangel Power Tarot, both by Doreen Virtue & Radleigh Valentine. Of course this information can be applied to any card deck! The Major Arcana in general are some very powerful cards! In general they hold greater weight and meaning than the “minor arcana” (which are the other suites that will be discussed). They are also referred to as the trump cards and are the foundational piece of the Tarot deck. They make up the first 21 cards in the deck, and tell a really beautiful story. They are representative of a path to spiritual self awareness and unveil the different stages of life as we move thorough our path. They all hold very deep meaningful lessons. The recording in this week goes through those, and it is also important you listen to your own heart in what they mean to you. If a lot of Major Arcana appear, pay attention to two main points: 1. The person you are reading for may be going through some big life changes. 2. The more that appear the less free will and choice that person may have (but of course there is ALWAYS free will and choice). The Major Arcana cards are all numbered, and in the Angel Tarot are associated with an Angel.

  • Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell a Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series
    Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell A Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series Part IV: The Kings The video length for The Kings became unduly long, so for those who might not be able to sit through and take notes during the entirety of the lecture, here is an illustrated transcript of that lecture. THIS IS THE FOUR-LETTERED DIVINE NAME, Yod He Vau He, and the four letters in Hebrew are (please forgive my mispronunciation here), Yod, which corresponds with the element Fire, He, or the first of two He, which corresponds with the element Water, Vau, which corresponds with the element Air, and the second He, which corresponds with the element Earth. The significance of this concept with the tarot is expounded upon in Tarot of the Bohemians by Papus, and if this interests you, the video, ―Jailbreaking Tarot of the Bohemians‖ will be linked in the description box, but regrettably, closed captioning wasn’t included. In Tarot of the Bohemians, and Crowley reiterates this in his Book of Thoth, the four letters of the Divine Name and four elemental attributions correspond with the four court cards. Yod and Fire correspond with the Kings in tarot, if you’re referencing the titles in the Marseilles or Rider- Waite-Smith, and Knights in the Thoth deck, though there is some debate about this. For now, following the Book of Thoth, we’ll say it’s the Knights. TAROT CARD MEANINGS WITH BENEBELL | VIDEO LECTURE SERIES The first He corresponds with the rank just below the Kings, the Queens. Vau corresponds with the ranking below the Queens, the Knights.

  • Tarot 1 Tarot
    Tarot 1 Tarot The tarot (/ˈtæroʊ/; first known as trionfi and later as tarocchi, tarock, and others) is a pack of playing cards (most commonly numbering 78), used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play a group of card games such as Italian tarocchini and French tarot. From the late 18th century until the present time the tarot has also found use by mystics and occultists in efforts at divination or as a map of mental and spiritual pathways. The tarot has four suits (which vary by region, being the French suits in Northern Europe, the Latin suits in Southern Europe, and the German suits in Central Europe). Each of these suits has pip cards numbering from ace to ten and four face cards for a total of 14 cards. In addition, the tarot is distinguished by a separate 21-card trump suit and a single card known as the Fool. Depending on the game, the Fool may act as the top trump or may be played to avoid following suit. François Rabelais gives tarau as the name of one of the games played by Gargantua in his Gargantua and Pantagruel;[1] this is likely the earliest attestation of the French form of the name.[citation needed] Tarot cards are used throughout much of Europe to play card games. In English-speaking countries, where these games are largely unplayed, tarot cards are now used primarily for divinatory purposes. Occultists call the trump cards and the Fool "the major arcana" while the ten pip Visconti-Sforza tarot deck.

  • Supplemental Sheets ELEMENTAL DIGNITIES in TAROT Applying
    Supplemental Sheets ELEMENTAL DIGNITIES IN TAROT Applying elemental dignities analysis to a tarot reading helps identify the precise points of imbalances in a Seeker’s life or situation. The various energies and traits of a person (or even a situation) per Western theosophy can be categorized as Fire, Water, Air, or Earth in essence. For harmony in one’s life, there should be a balance of the four elements within. When two elements seem to vie for dominance and those elements are also in opposition, there will be flux, uncertainties, a sense of instability and insecurity. When active elements dominate, there may be a lack of peace, and instead, too much competition, battling, conflict, and strife. When passive elements dominate, there may be little progress, feeling overwhelmed, and controlled rather than in control. Interpreting a tarot reading by the card meanings help the Seeker understand what is going on; interpreting elemental dignities enhances that understanding by explaining why. Dignity as used in this context is defined as external manifestation of the card’s innate properties. It is the state of being activated with the full potential of its essence. An Elemental Dignity describes that state with more specificity—it is the external manifestation of a tarot card’s innate elemental essence, given that each card is governed innately by one of the four elements, Fire, Water, Air, or Earth, and thus has the potential of fully embodying the traits associated with that element. (Note however that the card’s energies would further be modified by the numerological correspondence and other factors.) Benebell Wen, www.benebellwen.com Holistic Tarot (North Atlantic Books, forthcoming 2014) Supplemental Sheets When a card from the suit of Wands is said to be dignified, it means it is fully charged and activated with the energies of its corresponding element.

  • The Star and Strength (17/8)
    TAROT The Star and Strength (17/8) The archetypal system of Tarot is ancient. Although records link its beginnings to the Middle Ages, there are indications of its origination occurring much earlier – perhaps even by thousands of years and from distant civilizations. The Tarot represents and reflects (it is) the story of life: each card is a micro-story of the profound, deeply-embedded and commonly-lived experiences of our human journey. Your core Tarot encoding is unveiled by adding your individual birth numbers together and reducing them down: in this case, your encoded major arcana Tarot archetype is #8 Strength. Expounding on this archetype, your birth numbers have also been added in such a way (a system developed by the Amberstones) as to bring forward one (and sometimes two) other major arcana archetypes that also live within you. Together, these symbiotic fields of energy create an additional dynamic and unveil the complexities of your Soul Print’s distinct journey. _______________________________________________________________________________________ You are the energetic archetypal combination of The Star (#17 in the Tarot) and Strength (#8 in the Tarot). As such, you represent a dynamic quality-set that emerges from its coupling and its energetic feedback loop. This emergent archetype and energy signature is one that represents grace, humility power and creative new birth at its core. Note the myriad similarities in the details of the images exemplifying various shared and opposed qualities. You as Star-Strength are here to interweave gentleness and aggressiveness, discern wisely between allowance and control, and evolve balance between unconsciousness-mindfulness, flexibility-insistence and visionary-action.
