  • Two Tone Tarot Shadow
    Two Tone Tarot Shadow Guide Booklet This book is a guide to the symbolism used in Two Tone Tarot. This is not a manual on how to use the deck. Tarot is meant to be interpreted by the reader with help from the artist. While much of the original artwork was constructed with traditional tarot in mind, much of the symbolism and meanings are interpreted and relevent to the artists’ day-to-day life. This acknowledgement of Two Tone Tarot as it exists is a symbolic crossroad; the true blend of traditional and modern. The symbolism of the deck interweaves and mixes with the more familar tarot icons, archetypes, and templates. It is recommended that this book be used in conjunction with guides to the traditional tarot, and tarot reading guides for those who are new to the medium. Major Arcana The Major Arcana is comprised of 22 cards tht navigate significant experiences, relationships, and pathways in our lives. In the even that these cards are present and dominate a reading, they can point toward key issues that may need to be explored or addressed. Any Minor Arcana cards present in a reading alingside the Major Arcana will often provide supplementary information and guidance. The Fool is the main character of the Major Arcana and makes his journey through each of the cards, meeting new teachers and learning new life lessons along the way, and eventually reaching the completion of his journey with the World card. This is known as the Fool’s Journey and is a helpful way of understanding the story line of the Major Arcana Tarot card meanings.

  • Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell a Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series
    Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell A Seventeen-Part Video Lecture Series Part VI: The Fours The video length for The Fours 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. Thank you for watching this educational series, Tarot Card Meanings with Benebell. Don’t forget: closed captioning is provided for every video in this course. So, if that’s something you’re interested in, be sure to click and turn those on. We started this course with the Aces in the sephirah Keter on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. Keter is the Tao, the name that cannot be named, the nameless origin of Heaven and Earth, the infinite and the dynamic. Then we moved into Chokhmah, the Supernal Father, the Divine Yang, the seed and potential, or Divine Intelligence, where we studied the realm of Twos in the Minor Arcana. From there, we passed into Binah, the Supernal Mother, the Divine Yin, birth, and formation, the receiving power of perception and observation. Here in Binah, we studied the Threes. We then moved back to Chokhmah because that’s where the Kings reside, the Supernal Father. And then it was back to Binah, the Supernal Mother, for the Kings’ consorts, the Queens. We are now moving from the Supernal Triangle, which is where we’ve been dwelling for the last five videos, into the lower sephiroth, getting closer to Malkuth, though we are not quite there yet. To give us a bit of a break from the intense tarot courts, we’re going to study the Fours, residents in the sephira Chesad.

    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.
