Five of Pentacles/The Magician reversed. The Five of Pentacles (Mercury, reason,
intelligence, education, skill, communication, in Taurus, “I have,” sensual,
cautious, stubborn) tells of some loss or need within the physical world. The thing about this card is that it is
not all bad, just uncomfortable.
If I analyze things too much I won’t believe in myself any more. The Magician corresponds with Air
(hot/separates and wet/adapts, and quick and animated energy which usually
presents problems or challenges), Mercury (reason, intelligence, orderliness, communication),
Beth (house; builder) and the Path between Binah (female, receptive energy and
the origin of form and structure) and Kether (the source, limitless
possibility). The Magician works
hard to perfect his abilities, to make use of those abilities in unexpected
ways, and to focus and carry through to the end of a task (which is pretty
important to him). This card is
personally significant to me, and since he represents the manifestation of
tangible knowledge, and since he is reversed, I could be dealing with some kind
of deception today, or perhaps a miscommunication of some kind.
My Thoth cards are the Seven of Swords (“Futility”) and the Queen
of Swords reversed. Well. The Seven of Swords (Moon, feelings
and emotions, illusion, imagination, in Aquarius, “I know,” friendships,
cause-oriented, the group, aloofness) tells of the effort to maintain things as
we want them, often through the use of deception and without considering the
wants or needs of others. The
Thoth card also hints at not being willing to do the work necessary to obtain
the desired end results. The Queen of Swords (cusp
of Virgo, “I serve,” practical, sensible, work and service oriented, and Libra,
“We are,” partnerships, balance, cooperation, grace) can be considered a Minor
Arcana representation of the Justice card, which is about responsibility and
the relationship between “cause” and “effect.” In an upright position, this Queen is a pioneering
trailblazer with nerves of steel and a good sense of humor. It looks like things might be a bit
foggy today. I need to be careful.
My Legacy card is the Page of Coins reversed, flavored by the Nine
of Wands reversed. The Page
of Coins (Aries, “I want,” assertive, action oriented, Taurus, “I have,”
sensual, cautious, stubborn, and Gemini, “I think,” curious, sociable, dual) is
down-to-earth and
responsible, and a listener and a learner. This Page loves to learn new things
and have new experiences, but he also can see the big picture in an optimistic
way. My Page is reversed, and
today I may have trouble being excited about fulfilling my tasks and
responsibilities. My reversed Page
of Coins is being flavored by the Nine of Wands, also reversed. The Nine of Wands (Moon,
feelings and emotions, illusion, imagination, in Sagittarius, “I seek,”
philosophic, fun-loving, adventurous, blundering) in an upright position tells
us that the final challenge approaches, and we need to ready ourselves. My card is reversed, and unfortunately
it tells of obstacles. Everything
is uncomfortable today. Oy.
My 6-digit date number is 6, the number of vertical and horizontal
balance. Just what I need.
My horoscopes: “Your strong business sense and
practical skills couple with imagination and innovation to bring advancement.
Information from far away could prove especially valuable. Relationships with
friends should be warm and cooperative. Love relationships could also prove
rewarding. Consider blowing off a little steam by going out and having a good
time.”
And: “Decision-making today might be quite a
daunting task. You may find that there is a great deal of nervous energy within
you which is making you feel like you must run up to the podium and announce
the final verdict. In reality, however, you are more likely to want to keep all
your options open. Don't get caught in sticky situations in which you have to
commit to something at this time. Give yourself an escape hatch.”
