🕑 Added 2019-03-25 01:55:38 +0000 UTCHello my beautiful babies! Looking forward to tomorrow's Mystic Monday Tarot Class focusing on the second half of the Major Arcana. You can catch me teaching LIVE at 7pm pst HERE on Twitch. Below is the core of tomorrows lesson. I've attached a copy of it in PDF form that includes the images of each card.
Tarot Class: Major Arcana 12-21 & 0
Overview
Today we examine the second half of the Major Arcana whose themes/meanings build upon the themes/meanings found in the first half.
If you make two rows with the Major Arcana using 1-11 for the top row and 12-0 beneath, an interesting relationship appears in the columns (I have added my own little personal anecdote about these relationships in addition to the “GENERAL MEANING” and “THEMES” of each card).
The first half of the Trumps span the Chaotic Art of Magic to the Orderly Science of Law. It’s a journey of Self-realization and acceptance of the Other, like how everything in the Universe is formed of individual units that come together to form things larger than themselves. We take Nothing and turn it into “Something”.
If 1-11 represent going from Birth to becoming an Adult and joining Society, 12-21&0 is a hero’s journey representing a shamanic descent into the Underworld ending in Rebirth. We take our “Something”, let it fall apart, then rebuild it and make our return as “Something 2.0”.
12. The Hanged Man – (Water/Neptune) GENERAL MEANING: Non-doing
THEMES: Pause/Delay, Non-Doing/Stalling, Sacrifice/Selfishness, Letting Go/Resistance, Meditation/Mystic Ecstacy, New Perspective, Surrender/Self-Punishment, Gestation/Pregnancy, Waiting, Suspension, Commune with the Self, Tied to the Family Tree, the Structures that Bind Us, Martyrdom
The Go-Getter energy of the Magician is inverted in the Hanged Man. He goes from one who must make a choice to one who must wait on making any decisions. The will to choose learns patience in non-doing.
13. Death – (Scorpio) GENERAL MEANING: Profound Transformation
THEMES: Transition/Destruction, Cleansing/Purging, Radical Change/Mutation, Endings/Beginnings, Revolution/Aggressiveness, Mortality, Harvest/Cut, Initiation, Work of Mourning, Leave Behind what no longer serves
The High Priestess who is the Dweller on the Threshold of the Conscious/Subconscious mind becomes Death, the Dweller on the Threshold of Life and whatever comes next. This Profound Transformation is what she was preparing for in her study.
14. Temperance – (Sagittarius) GENERAL MEANING: Moderation is the Key
THEMES: Adaptability/Anxiety, Health/Healing, Circulation/Blend, Frugality/Excess, Union/Unfortunate Combination, Dynamic Balance, Measure, Patience, Guardian Angel, Re-alignment, Reconciliation, Fluidity, Androgyny, Even-Temper
The Creative Outburst of the Empress finds that Moderation is the Key in Temperance. Her abundance is circulated, nourishing all.
15. The Devil – (Capricorn) GENERAL MEANING: Temptation
THEMES: Charm/Suggestibility, Sensuality/Perversion, Dependency/Vice, Passion/Obsession, Attachments/Addiction, Transgressing Taboo, Fear/Hate, Darkness, Subconscious Forces, The Shadow Self, Contract, Pride, Deep Creativity, Possession, Money, Self-Created Problems, Intuitiveness
The authority of the Emperor becomes a tyrannical Devil creating dependency and turning his subjects into slaves. Stability becomes stagnant and boredom turns into temptation.
16. The Tower – (Mars) GENERAL MEANING: Emergence of the Imprisoned
THEMES: Awakening/Shattered certainties, Escape/Incarceration, Liberation/Exile, Dispute/Divorce, Moving House/Changing Job, Adversity, Chaos, Explosion, Accident, Revelation, Ejaculation, Lightning Strike, Truth Revealed, To Let Loose, Time to Move On, Unrealistic or Overly Idealistic Project gone Awry, Burst of Energy, Phallus
The Institutions/Ideals that come together in the Hierophant are blasted apart. The brick and mortar reality of the Tower has become a prison and collapses as the Divine Inspiration that built it escapes.
17. The Star – (Aquarius) GENERAL MEANING: To Find One’s Place
THEMES: Gift/Waste, Receptivity/Connection, Hope/Lack of Faith, Luck/Talent, Generosity/Self-Care, To Sanctify/Purification Ritual, Becoming a Vessel, Fertility, Sacred Space, Celebrity, Purpose, Spirituality, Celestial Influence, Divine Agent, Self-Love, Natural Expression, Irrigation, Magic, Inspiration
The Lovers stop looking for someone else to make them happy and choose to love themselves in the Star. They finally find their place in the world, settle down, and get to work.
18. The Moon – (Pisces) GENERAL MEANING: Cosmic Receptivity
THEMES: Visions/Dreams, Intuition/Uncertainty, Phases/Inconsistency, Reflection/Receptivity, Imagination/Sensitivity, Gestation/Menstruation, Anxiety/Listening to Gut Instincts, Feelings, A Night Journey, The Unconscious, Madness, Poetry, Deception, Illusion, Femininity, Cosmic Mother, Feeling it Out
The assured action of the Chariot becomes uncertain when the Moon rises and darkness falls. To travel forth and conquer one must learn to become receptive to the tides of intuition.
19. The Sun – (Sun) GENERAL MEANING: Universal Endorsement
THEMES: New Life/Evolution, Fraternity/Rivalry, Warmth/Aridity, Cosmic Father/Inner Child, Positivity/Over Optimism, Altruism/Selfishness, Confidence/Ego, Vitality, Radiance, Green Light on New Construction, Success, Abundance, Seeing Bright Side of Life, Conscious Mind, Authenticity, Happiness, Friendship
The conscious self-control of Strength becomes natural, effortlessly riding a top her animal instincts in the Sun. Refined energy receives Universal Endorsement.
20. Judgement – (Pluto/Fire) GENERAL MEANING: Irresistible Desire
THEMES: Message/Announcement, Birth/Emergence, Reawakening/Renaissance, Good News/Alarm, Realization/Ignoring Message, Inner Calling, Going Towards the Light, Rise Up, Spiritual Awakening, Music, Father/Mother/Child Unit, Time to Pay the Piper, Family Issues, Resurrection, Letting Go of Past, Grow/Transform/Release, Hidden Potential
The light of the Hermit’s lantern, leading adepts to the heights is echoed in the trumpet blast of the Angel of Judgment, calling souls home to the heavens. Prudent Wisdom dissolves in the face of an Irresistible Desire.
21. The World – (Saturn/Earth) GENERAL MEANING: Total Realization
THEMES: Success/Celebration, Completion/Fulfillment, Coming Full Circle/Seeking Closure, Labor/Birth, International Travel, Perfection, Leveling UP, Integration/Imprisonment, Accomplishment, Honoring Achievements, Fruition, Making Space in One’s Life, Yoni, Reaching the Finishing Line
The Wheel of Fortune becomes elliptical, giving birth to the next generation of the World. The seemingly flat circular rhythms of nature become three dimensional creating a spiral realizing a higher perspective and greater realization.
0. The Fool – (Uranus/Air) GENERAL MEANING: Freedom
THEMES: Spontaneity/Chaos, Seeking/Wandering, Innocence/Recklessness, Carefree Attitude/Carelessness, Silliness/Mania, Liberation/Running Away Nomad/Hobo, Undertaking a New Journey/Holding Yourself Back, Bohemian, Irrationality, Lightening Up, Being Full of Energy, Intoxication, , Pilgrimage, Free Spirit, Leap of Faith, Beginning, Taking a Risk, Idealism, All Potential, Being Down to Clown,
The orderly law that binds society, the safety of balance found in Justice is abandoned for the freedom and ensuing chaos of the fun-loving Fool. Fuck the “Rules”, JUST DO IT.
