 Prepping for my ritual tonight: the black (dark) candle represents what I want to see decreased as the nights grow smaller. The white (light) candle represents what I want to see grow as the days become longer. Today is Spring and it is a beautiful, sunshine-filled day! We want to socialize and share in the buzz of excitement as the Sun brings life back to the Earth’s Northern Hemisphere. Here is a reflection of my Lua Tarot cards: The Tower, The Emperor, and The Star.
The Emperor card is ruled by Aries, and Spring begins at 0° Aries tonight. I use a Jesus-looking figure in the Lua Tarot, for the Emperor. He looks left to draw compassion and nurturance from the Empress as he leads with love in his heart. This Emperor reflects a kind authority and leader. This is an image of a Persian man and I have placed a laurel wreath on his head. As I made the card, I likened it to my husband, who is an Aries and resembles this man, but I realize most people see Jesus here. And that can actually work, since the esoteric teachings say that Jesus was also an Aries! This Emperor year has truly been tinged with Tower energy. I wrote a post about the astrology of this if you are interested. Some astrologers believe the Age of Aquarius is coming and will be fully actuated by the end of this year. Pluto will enter Aquarius at the end of 2024, which some say will thrust us into that age. After the Tower comes the Star, which is ruled by Aquarius. The established ways are breaking down and we have a chance to do things differently. The “me against the world” attitude and “every man for himself” is no longer going to cut it. And, we are seeing that it does not work in the current situation we are finding ourselves. We are in this together and the humanitarian energy of Aquarius—the visionary, the illuminated mind, the reformist—is what will save us. We are on the precipice of change. Happy Equinox!
