The Lovers reversed/Judgement reversed. The Lovers (Air, hot/separates and
wet/adapts, quick and animated, intellectual, problems or challenges; Gemini,
“I think,” curious, talkative, sociable, dual; Zayin, double-edged sword; and
the Path between Tiphareth, the hub of the creation process where energies
harmonize and focus to illuminate and clarify, and Binah, female receptive
energy and the origin of form and structure) tells of duality, union, and
personal choices. This card is
about love, but it is also about our personal values and how they affect our
choices, and the promises we make to others. The Lovers present the two halves that when united are
greater than the sum of their parts, and because my card is reversed today, I
am being told that perhaps circumstances will prevent me from making
connections or manifesting choices. Wishing for something to happen, even
longing for that event, won’t do the trick, and I need to be cautious so that I
am not careless with my own heart or the hearts of others.
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) in an
upright position represents an opportunity to tally up and pay the bill so we
can have a fresh start. This card
has been appearing a lot lately. I might have doubts today regarding the
validity of my goals. Are they the
right goals? Have I invested
enough into those goals? Is it
time to tally the score? I can’t
forget that even the simplest choice has consequences, and those consequences
could very well harm the connections I hold dear.
My Thoth cards are the Ten of Cups (“Satiety”) reversed and the
Three of Swords (“Sorrow”) reversed.
Hmmm . . . more reversed cards. The Ten of Cups (Mars, action, spontaneity,
aggression, drive, in Pisces, “I believe,” feeling, duality, spirituality,
suffering and growth) in an upright position offers the manifestation of
happiness, simple joys, and fulfillment. Emotional fulfillment may not be
available to me today, but the card is there even though it is reversed, so
there is still hope. The
Three of Swords (Saturn, discipline, responsibility, limitations and
resistance, in Libra, “We are,” partnerships, balance, cooperation), my least
favorite card in the entire deck, usually indicates the possibility that logic,
rationalizing and the intellect could end up causing harm if they are not used
with balance and compassion. My Three of Swords is reversed, and this means
that any harm will most likely not be as bad as it seems. Grieve, and get over it.
My Legacy card is the Six of Cups reversed, flavored by The High
Priestess. Aha! Now I see. The Six of Cups (Sun, the inner core of a person or situation in Scorpio,
“I desire,” intense, compulsive, deep, obsessive) is a card of innocence, emotional
balance and harmony, of simple joy that begets even more simple joy by
infecting all that is around us at this moment. This is a card filled with harmony and an awareness of
blessings, but my Six of Cups is reversed. Any time spent remembering the past, no matter how lovely
those memories are, will be wasted. My reversed Six of Cups is being flavored
by The High Priestess, and actually the entire card throw is being flavored by
this powerful card. The High
Priestess (Water; the Moon, feelings and emotions, illusion, imagination; Gimel, the camel who safely crosses Da’ath,
the Abyss, and thus, has the secret of life; and the Path between Tiphareth,
the hub of the creation process where energies harmonize and focus to
illuminate and clarify, and Kether, the source, limitless possibility), is
one-half of the Major Arcana representation of the Sacred Feminine, with The
Empress being the other half. The High Priestess is the source of the power of
The Magician, the feminine version of The Hierophant, and the Keeper of the
Mysteries. This card is telling of
more than just an intense connection to my intuition; my High Priestess is also
telling me that there is plenty of information and advice available to me. I do need to remember that the
knowledge offered by The High Priestess is spiritual knowledge, which cannot be
measured or contained. She does not bring a cozy warmth, but rather she offers
the possibility of access to the sacred mysteries, if I am worthy. No pining for that which has passed, no
cozy comfort with loved ones, no judgment of past actions; now is the time to
pay attention to my intuition and my Inner Voice. The messages are important.
My 6-digit date number is 4, the number of depth and
stability.
My
horoscopes: “New business contacts could bring the possibility of pursuing a new
career in the psychic, spiritual, or healing arts, or perhaps in painting,
writing, or another of the fine arts. Think seriously about it. Your own talent
should be especially acute today. You could be thinking seriously about
training to be more effective. The support of friends and groups could prove
invaluable.”
And:
“It may
seem as if your brain is your enemy instead of your ally. For every thought
that comes up, you might think of two more that contradict it. Then suddenly
you have four thoughts contradicting the two contradicting thoughts. Pretty
soon you find yourself going around in circles over an issue that is quite
simple. Don't get angry with yourself, and try not to get frustrated. The key
is to take things more slowly, and don't mentally jump ahead of the place you
are at now.”
