Summer Solstice & The Sun's Childlike Magic

6/21/2022

0 Comments

 
PictureAntiquarian Tarot's Sun card.
Summer blessings! The Sun in astrology is about self-expression, power, vitality, and well-being. In Tarot, it teaches us to connect with our creativity to find what makes us thrive. The Lord of the Fire of the World is inviting us to shine our unique Light brightly with confidence. In a world that pushes fear, strips away faith, nuance, and is turning us into dedicated cynics, the Sun reminds us of our positive potential—our beautiful life force. It reawakens us to our creative source, helping to open our eyes wider with childlike wonder. This card asks us to unblock our hearts, dissolve bitter walls, and spread much needed joy. May the Sun shine its optimism on your path!

New Moon Lion's Gate Portal Activation 8/8/21 Leo II Decan

8/7/2021

The Lion's Gate, a celestial stargate, is when the 2nd brightest star in the heavens, fixed star Sirius (aka our "Spiritual Sun"), aligns with Earth; and it is “activated” with the New Moon this weekend.

As I continue to read and travel through 36 Secrets, A Decanic Journey through the Minor Arcana of the Tarot by T. Susan Chang, I keep finding fascinating connections between the cards and the stars.

For example: The Lion’s Gate happens during this Leo II time, the decan of the 6 of Wands “Lord of Victory” card (Jupiter in Leo).

Cancer III Decan, Four of Cups, Moon in Cancer

7/13/2021

Picture
Yesterday, we entered the third decan of Cancer, represented by the Four of Cups—the Moon in Cancer decan. The High Priestess (Moon) and Chariot (Cancer-ruled). The Golden Dawn title for the Four of Cups is The Lord of Blended Pleasure.

Four of Cups can bring up feelings of boredom, apathy and discontent in one's life. As we see in the RWS Cups Four, an angelic hand reaches out to show the young person the bounty that sits right in front of them. But, they don't even notice the miracle of this divine hand.

Picture36 Secrets. Tarot Decans: Lua and Antiquarian Tarot
We've entered Cancer II, the decan of the Three of Cups tarot card that lasts from July 1st - July 11.

This is the Lord of Abundance card, associated with Mercury in Cancer—and the Magician (Mercury ruled tarot card) and the Chariot (Cancer ruled tarot card).

​Three of Cups is a card of celebration, friendship, community, creativity, fun, and abundance.

Consider how this energy may reveal itself to you in the next 10 days. Is it showing up for you yet? >>>

New Year Astrology, 2020 Begins with a Bang! Saturn-Pluto Conjunction, Cancer Lunar Eclipse and Uranus Stations Direct.

1/6/2020

PictureTitle card from the Wheel of Change Tarot, 1997.
We started off the year with some positive energy last week! We're into week two and there are already three potent cosmic events, making it an intense start—and not the best way—to the year. 

The Cancer Lunar Eclipse is Friday January 10th at 11:21 am (not visible from America). The year begins with Full Moon in Cancer and we will end the year with one too (though December 29th won’t be an eclipse)!

​This puts a spotlight on feminine energy (Cancer is a super feminine and maternal sign). This year will bring more awareness to the topic of feminine empowerment and leadership.
