The Tower/Page of Cups
reversed. Hmmm . . . The Tower has
been showing up lately. The Tower (Fire (hot/separates and
dry/shapes, and spontaneous, impulsive, energetic change), Mars (action,
spontaneity, aggression, drive), Phe (mouth or speech), and the Path between
Hod (which provides analysis and communication) and Netzach (which offers the
stimulating factors of emotion and inspiration)) is one of the Major Arcana
cards that talks of adjustments.
This one tells of a violent or explosive correction in the way things
are going that usually happens after more gentle corrections don’t bring the
needed result. This card can also
represent breakthrough as well as breakdown, and the destruction of old values
is not a bad thing! The Page of
Cups corresponds to Libra (“we are,” partnerships, balance, cooperation),
Scorpio (“I desire,” intensity compulsion, mystery) and Sagittarius (“I seek,”
philosophic, adventurous, blundering) and is a card of soft and tender energies
and of getting fulfillment through connections to others, and through innocent
and simple joys. My Page is
reversed, and perhaps today I need to be a bit more of a grownup. Especially with that Tower hanging
around!
My Thoth cards are the Nine of
Cups (“Happiness”) and Judgement. Another
Cups card, and Judgement has been showing up lately, too. The Nine of Cups (Jupiter,
expansiveness and growth, justice, fortune, in
Pisces, “I believe,” feelings, duality, suffering, soul growth) is about
emotional satisfaction and the ability to find pleasure in feelings and
emotions, and in our expectations for the day. Crowley sees this card as a good luck card, and indicating
that there is a good possibility the future will be as good as the present. Judgement
corresponds with Fire (hot/separates and dry/shapes, and spontaneous, impulsive
and energetic change), Pluto (power,
metamorphosis, cycles of dying and becoming), Shin (fang), and the Path between
Malkuth (the physical world of action and physical, outer reality) and Hod
(provides analysis and communication) represents an opportunity to tally up and
pay the bill so we can have a fresh start. Some type of resolution is attempting to make itself known
to me these days, either dealing with the past or the future. Today at least, I think this resolution
is a good thing.
My Legacy card is the Knight of
Swords reversed, flavored by the Page of Wands reversed. The
Knight of Swords (the cusp of Taurus, “I have,” sensual, stubborn, cautious,
and Gemini, “I think,” curious, talkative, dual, intelligent) is outspoken, assured,
alert, and logical, as well as rude, domineering, critical and sarcastic. His daring and courage are impressive,
but he can also be disruptive, too, and since he is reversed today, I had
better keep my eye out for this kind of disruption. The Legacy of the Divine Knight of Swords is said to be
similar to a tornado: lots of focused effects, yet the path of a tornado is
erratic and not easy to predict.
Enthusiasm could turn into disruption today. The
Page of Wands (Cancer, “I
feel,” sensitive, tenacious, nurturing, moody; Leo, “I am,” passionate,
dramatic noble egotistical; and Virgo, “I serve,” practical, analytical, work
and service oriented) in an upright position is fun to
be around, unless you have a migraine. The
upright Llewellyn Welsh Page of Wands brings an important message: a positive
and exciting phase has arrived and it is time to enjoy this phase. My Page is reversed, though, and
flavoring my reversed Knight of Swords, validating the possibility for
disruption or the scattering of energies today.
My 6-digit date number is 9,
the number that tells of the completeness of manifestation or effect.
My horoscopes: “A letter or
other communication serves as a sort of wake-up call today. A long-term goal is
finally going to be reached. Your ambition should take on a new dimension,
possibly going for a second career either in addition to or instead of the one
you have. You might not be sure where you want to take it, but it's worth
pursuing.”
And: “Love is not something
that is going to happen spontaneously at this time. Don't sit around waiting
for someone to come down with a magic wand and instantly make everything
better. Love and relationships with close friends and family are things that
you are going to need to work for. Keep in mind that this work doesn't
necessarily need to be tiring or gruesome, but it is a form of effort on your
part.”
