TAROT HAIKU

Only you know right

Open is the heart’s prayer

Love never left you

 

Morning.  sorry that yesterday was not attended to… 13 may 2012 was a 14/5 day.  Please, if you are so inclined check out my post.. “Double bubble YOu are not in trouble”  23 April for some thoughts on Alchemy and The Hierophant.  Thanks.

 

Back on track here.  Is a Lover’s kinda day with that Devil sneaking a poke at you.

Todays invitation is about relationships, with others and yourself.  In the ‘6’ there is a great desire for harmony, there is the nurturer, the care giver, the humanitarian, the giving of the self so that others thrive, and the focus on hearth and home.  If your number is ‘6’ (add your date of birth together) you also have a charm about you that can be irresistible. Problems rise when you have given yourself away and have nothing left for you.  It’s easy to see the Lovers in this number.  

Now that Devil… well…The Devil is the trickster, he/she who sets before you choices that tease you from your path and suggest that you might want to try something different, a new fruit to flavor your life.  When you begin to question who you are and what you do, the Devil will slip into your mind, and tickle at what challenges these questions. The Devil, that little poky voice within, pushes at your marginal resolve, into something that might not be the something you had in mind.  If you know what I mean?  The Devil will challenge your relationships; the ones you have with others and the the one you have with yourself. Thus, I am of the mind that the Devil performs a gift for you on your Path of life so that you can really have a sense of your integrity, your authenticity, and how you allow harmony and love in your life. 

 

As always…If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

How do you sustain harmony and balance in your life?

When do you notice that you have ‘giving yourself away’ and there isn’t enough for just you?

If the ‘Devil made you do it’, what would you have done otherwise?

What patterns rise for you when life is going well and balanced, and you get restless to stir the pot up by creating disharmony?  Why?

How do you make sure that you are taking care of yourself as well as others?

How does the ‘be-devilment’ remind you of who you really are?

How do you trick yourself into believing the unbelievable?

How will you nurture your relationships in a healthy way?

How do you make friends with your devilish side?

What would you like to do differently from your usually pattern of caregiving that still feels like you are giving and receiving?

 

GET A JUMP ON IT… The Fool

Standard

12 may 2012   >  0/4/13  >  Fool/Emperor/Death

 

TAROT HAIKU

There is no dark grave

When Light shimmers everywhere

Every Fool know that

 

Hi… hope this day for the Fool finds you ready to jump on in.  In the Tarot invitation here , I also invite you to pass this blog on to other interested people and I welcome some feedback from you.  Thanks…

 22, that master number that adds to ‘4’, the Emperor, and represents The Fool in the Tarot cards, invites you to JUMP…  eek.  There is innocence in the Fool.  There is a freedom in the not being burden with things, and defined thoughts, and ways of doing this and that.  The Fool steps into life, jumps into life, falls into life, to find life, to find his/her way.  At some point in freedoms jump the Fool embraces the Emperor: order, structure, rules, definition, form, how to run that castle well and keep the kingdom steady and organized.  Then… Death comes along and says… “Hey.. ya’ll got lots of stuff, and things, and minds sets that are limiting, and over ruled and defined.  That box is seriously confining.  Time to let it go.  Time to transform limited thinking and living to give space for something fresh, alive, and new.”  

And so this journey of ‘4’ comes into being with this set of Tarot cards.

 

The Invitation for you if this is your birthday or just another glorious day… is to consider all of the above with these questions:

TAROT QUESTIONS.

 

What might need ‘letting go of’ to give space for something new and improved?

Can you ‘jump’ into your life with a new idea, a refresher course in beingness?

How do you limit yourself?

What does your box look like?

What rules, structures, definitions need reevaluation?

What have you always wanted to do and were too afraid of the consequences and breaking of rules to ‘jump’ into?

What lights you up and brings you to your playful, child-like, enthusiastic self?

What does your inner child desire?

What does freedom mean to you?

Can you imagine death as a transformative experience …Figuratively speaking?

What ‘stuff’ needs to be boxed and sent to the thrift shop?

Do you need to be boxed and sent to the thrift shop?  lol

PONDER AND RECLUSE… ‘9’ and the Hermit/Moon

Standard

8 may 2012   >   9/18  >  Hermit/Moon

 

 GoodMorning… The canopy of trees glitter green this morning in the rising Sun.  They are almost fully expanded.  It’s beautiful.  There is comfort living beneath their spread.

 

TAROT HAIKU

Ponder and recluse

Take what you need in your time

There is enough Light

 

 This day or if it’s your birthday is a time to take some quiet time and really gather your light, your unfinished business, your need for closure, whatever has been lingering in the undone zone that urges you to finish up.  Maybe you’ve been plowing through life and are drained, depleted, no time for yourself and your creative desires and dreams.  This is day to give a little bit to tidying up what has been bugging you and you feel frustrated with.  It might be a time to let go of that piece of life you keep putting off and putting off and now it’s just a thorn in your side, poking hard and undone, going no where.

 

  ‘9’, is the number for bringing-it-all-together: tying up lose ends, completing that project, that plan, that thought, so you can move on.  Being stuck in ‘9’ energy can keep things from coming to completion or missing out on an opportunity that need more action and less pondering.  

  Hermit ‘energy’  needs time to ponder and recluse; to gather energy in quietude and meditation so that there is more energy to have and more light to shine., more wisdom to gather and share.  There isn’t a time limit on the need for silence and gathering. And… once this time of quietude finds completion, Hermit energy is ready to give back and share what wisdom which was held in the shadows of life and is now ready to shine it out for others to see and feel.

    With the Moon as your ally, take a look in those shadows of yours and drag that unfinished business into the light. The Moon, speaks to cycles, the flow of feelings and thoughts that provoke those feelings, the shadows of life, how you reflect light, and the fullness of that radiance.

The Hermit, calls to your inner wisdom, lights it up and lets it shine within and out.  He/she invites you to pay attention to what you know and how you might expand on that spiritually.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

What wisdom have you gathered that you can honor and share?

What is your ‘light’ and how do you gather your Light and share it?

Can you take some time to just be calm and quiet with no doing?

What does it mean for you to ‘lighten up’?

Do you have project or two or three that you’d like to finish and what does that mean for you?

Can you take some down time?

What needs ‘pulling together’?

Can you honor your own needs and say no to something when you need time alone?

Who needs you to say ‘no, not now’?

Think of what the Hermit means to you and how do you feel about that expression within yourself? 

What inner wisdom is urging you to pay attention to it and listen?

BE THE CONDUIT

Standard

7 may 2012   >  8/17  >  Adjustment/balance/The Star

 

Morning… Lots of repeats here with days rolling into each other so fast.  And… I gotta think it’s alright to let you re read some of what was written before.  ALWAYs.. I write a new haiku for you.  

 

TAROT HAIKU

In the center placed

EArth to heaven touching now

Be the conduit

 

Today’s invitation or your birthday year, comes from the number ‘8’ and the tarot card Balance/Adjustment, along with it’s Tarot ally, The Star (#17). Some tarot-authored decks, differ on the # 8 Major Arcana; Strength/Lust or Justice/Balance.   I made a choice to use Crowleys delineation making the ‘8’ card Balance/Adjustment/Justice. Simply, a personal choice.  Within either choice is the opportunity to consider how you balance and adjust your life; how you consider the choices you make to address inner conflict, or trusting what you know is the way to sustain equality within yourself and around you.  I think there is a tending to life in a way that is supported by noticing how you feel, and trusting your intuition and instincts.  Getting to far from the center of yourself will cause imbalance.  There is this constant flow in the nature of things that seems to desire balance.

Your ‘ally’ The Star, reminds you that staying well and healthy, knowing your vulnerability can be an asset.  And that you just might be standing between ‘heaven and earth’ acting as a vehicle for change.  These are all part of this sense of Divine Order to be aware of and mind-full of. 

In the ‘8’, is the management of your resources, your time, your money, and the consideration of how you control and have power; how you lead yourself and others.  It is considered by some, the card of Divine Order.  It will be about how you order your life and live in the material world.  How you manage it and others.  It can be dictatorial, and overly controlling.  Be Mindful.

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

What does Divine Order mean to you?

Can you be a vulnerable leader and what does that mean anyway?

In what ways can you adjust and find balance?

What is the difference for you between ‘power over’ and power shared and given?

How might you find justice in an unjust world?

What doesn’t feel fair right now that you can make feel/be a little better?

What needs to get out of the way of your sense of balance?

What isn’t working in how you manage ‘thing’ and what can you do to adjust that?

Can you let go of being perfect, or doing it ‘perfect’ so that you actually get it done?

If you feel you are on a tightrope struggling to stay balanced and centered what might you do to change this?  What needs to happen?

How will you manage your resources?

What are feeling you are losing control over that maybe you need to re-calibrate what that control is?

What is your time management?

 

 

 

 

WESAK MOON… SUPER… ‘7’

Standard

6 may 2012  > 7/16  >  Charioteer/Tower

 

How about that ‘Super’ Moon last night?  Here is a site that gives you info on the wonder of it.

http://www.mysticmamma.com/super-full-moon-in-scorpio-may-5th-2012-beltane-wesak-celebration/

When the moon is full, think of your own sense of fullness.  What you bring into fruition.  Remember those ‘seeds’ you planted last month or some time ago?  Those seeds of possibilities that you had hope for?  Now is time to see where they have all grown.  Are they where you want them?  How will you nurture them into all that you hoped they might be?

 

The number for the day is ‘7’.  In the ‘7’, there is the investigator, the analyzer, the observer; he/she who misses nothing and gathers what they know into a deeper understanding of how things work and the reason for being.  They are on a need to know bases as they tend to be suspicious of others.  ‘7’ find inspiration in everything they take interest in. There is a tenaciousness about ‘7’s’, at times even a willful fervor when something is decided, it become nearly unshakeable in the truth of it.  ‘7’ desires to be nearly perfect at something/s.

 

The Charioteer, shares the story of gathering, investigating, observing something they feel passionate about. giving focus to a cause, or whatever it is that they feel called into life for their own special purpose.  They will take their time and become fluent in what holds their attention.  Shear will, will drive them on. 

The Tower card gives a story about what happens when the foundation of something keeps reaching beyond itself.  Reaching till it has grown into something that no longer understands or connects to the very root of what brought it into being in the first place.  And without the foundation of life secure and solid in the knowing of what it stands on, the Tower can take a tumble, needing to remember where it began and felt safest.

 

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

What needs to be gathered and investigated right now?

How will you give it your focus?

What incites your suspicions and how can you shift that into a positive outlook?

Is it time for you to take your project to the next level and what does that look like?

Is your foundation strong so that you can take some risks?

Have you gotten to far away from what ‘matters’ and might need to get back to basics?

What inspires you to give all of yourself to?

Does your will-fullness hold people to you or push then away and is that working for you?

Are you too attached to the outcome?

Is it time to shift your attention to something that will work better for you?

‘7’ of what?

Take a leap for life

Ah.. A Fools day. I love that.  22, that master number that adds to ‘4’, the Emperor, and represents The Fool in the Tarot cards, invites you to JUMP…  eek.  There is innocence in the Fool.  There is a freedom in the not being burden with things, and defined thoughts, and ways of doing this and that.  The Fool steps into life, jumps into life, falls into life, to find life, to find his/her way.  At some point in freedoms jump the Fool embraces the Emperor: order, structure, rules, definition, form, how to run that castle well and keep the kingdom steady and organized.  Then… Death comes along and says… “Hey.. ya’ll got lots of stuff, and things, and minds sets that are limiting, and over ruled and defined.  That box is seriously confining.  Time to let it go.  Time to transform limited thinking and living to give space for something fresh, alive, and new.”

BELTANE… Passion…Balance… ’11’

Standard

1 may 2012   > 11/20/2  >  Balance/Adjustment/Lust/Aeon/Judgement/Priestess

 

May day… Beltane.  The celebration of Spring, fertility, planting the seed to come to fruition. What seeds do you plant to come to fruit in you life?  Love? Health?  Well-Being? Kindness? Be Here Now?  What might you write on our imaginary ribbon to gather and let go of as you dance the Maypole?

Happy Beltane day to you.

 

Quick to return to the ‘2’.  In the tarot, this is a ‘2’ day that brings us to ‘11’.  Depending on the deck you use, it is either Justice, Adjustment, Balance, Strength, Lust, Passion.  All these bring about the integration and exchange of differences, and seeing what is beyond what can be seen.

 

Today is a day, a year to give yourself to your passions;  that fire in your belly, that desire you have yearned for, that recreation of what ‘turned-you-on’ and you let it fizzle away…what you wish to shine up and give luster to.  It is a time to notice what internal dialogue you have going on about what lights you up, and is it the kind of conversation with yourself that you are enjoying.  This is a day or year, should it be your birthday, to look beyond the veil of your limited mind and feel from your intuition or your gut a larger possibility.  It might not be the whole truth and it might be a bit more inspired information to ignite your passion.  

Feeling and noticing your inner urges to express yourself.  Finding ways to be appropriate in that exchange between what inspires you and what feels right.  

‘11’ finds it way to the ‘2’, and the Priestess… the number of exchange, finding counsel within yourself or finding counsel in a trusted friend or therapist.  Sitting quietly and allowing yourself to feel and see beyond the veil between what is obvious and what lies hidden.

And… lastly, within the story of the Aeon/Judgement card rests the call to accountability.  Discerning what is presented before you and making ‘judgement calls’ appropriately. 

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

What inspires you to get up each morning?

How might you shine up your life and buff it to sparkle?

Who needs you to counsel them without it being about you?

Do you need counsel now to get out of a rut?

What sits right in front of your face that gets in the away of your seeing the totality of all you can be?

What seeds of life and inspiration, luster and passion do you plant now so they can bloom in your summer?

How might you put a Spring in your step and a seed in your earthly life?

What have you been talking about and pondering that now needs to rise up and feel the light of your action?

What have you needed to say that you have put off?  How can you say it lovingly?

How do you balance your busy mind with trusting your intuition?

 How do you give trust to your intuition?

What do your instincts tell you?

 

BEING CENTERED IN LIFE

Standard

28 april  2012    >   10/19/1   >  Wheel of Fortune/Sun/One

TAROT HAIKU

Know your galaxy

Gather at centered SunLight

Fly your Milky Way

 

Goodday… And why not make that so.. Right?  How will you make this day good?

 

It’s all about you in a certain sort of way. A day of being #1, knowing your Oneness, knowing that you are at One with all there is and all you are.  It is about how you initiate your life, how you stand centered and your sense of personal awareness.  In considering The Wheel of Fortune, which can represent the Circle of Life; turning and changing,  up and down, east and west, ever inviting you in to your center where the journey of life is more steady and focused. That center can be where the Sun shine directly on you to help you flourish and see where you’re going and how you’re growing.

 The Magician has all the tools you need;  earth, fire, air, and water, that translates to; what you do, how you hold true to yourself and your passion, how you get clarity, how you feel, and what your heart speaks to.  

If today is your birthday, these are questions to consider for the whole year.  Grab one or all and see what stirs you up.  Change the wording around to make it feel right for you.  As you ponder these thoughts and questions, please take a moment to sit quietly and breathe.  Let your breath guide you into a quiet place for the questions to have a moment to brew and shimmer.  Invite your wisdom to be your guide.  And remember, if overwhelm sets in, take a very little step.  You have as much time as you need.

 

QUESTIONS TO PONDER

 

How do you stay centered in yourself and if not how will you?

How will you push your edges and try to expand a little bit more?

What does the wheel of your life look like and how does it turn?

Are you going counter clockwise?   And is that a good thing for you?

What new beginning is pushing at your edges to consider or take action on?

What can you do that supports that feeling of magic in the air?

If you ‘are the One’, how does your Oneness join with others?

What does the tool of ‘earth’ mean to you?  

What does the tool of ‘fire’ mean to you

What does the tool of ‘water’ mean to you?

What does the tool of ‘air’ mean to you?

How can you use these tool to move with changes and turns of your life?

A bright morning to you.  Take a breath into your day and fill up then let it go.  Again.  A great day to be alive and present with and in your life.  Enjoy every moment.

TAROT HAIKU

Shadow lines the path

Light filters the dancing Moon

Everywhere is here

 

  This day or if it’s your birthday is a time to take some quiet time and really gather your light, your unfinished business, your need for closure, whatever has been lingering in the undone zone that pokes at you to finish up.  Maybe you’ve been plowing through life and are drained, depleted, no time for yourself and your creative desires and dreams.  This is day to give a little bit to tidying up what has been bugging you and you feel frustrated with.  It might be a time to let go of that piece of life you keep putting off and putting off and now it’s just a thorn in your side, undone, going no where.

REAL-A-TION-SHIPS – ‘6’

Standard

24 april 2012  >  6/15   >  Lovers/Devil

TAROT HAIKU

Be the listener

Heart has words for you to hear

Sit closely  and love

 

Mornin’.  Love is in the air loaded with possibilities.  A real-ation-ship kinda day or year (if it’s your birthday).  ‘Getting real’ with yourself and others in that exchange between people that requires depth and integrity.  Saying what you mean from your heart. Nurturing the love and kindness of life.   Pausing before you spill some inappropriate honesty that really doesn’t serve you or a loved one.  Cause… ya’ll know that the bedevilment card lurks in the peripheral, and can feel compelled to say just about any ol’ thing to stir the pot of goodness into something not so nice.  That is the gift of the Devil: to hear that voice that has no filters before it actually pours out of your mouth.  Cause, you know when you have that funky attitude going on.  Right?

In the ‘6’ there is a great desire for harmony, there is the nurturer, the care giver, the humanitarian, the giving of the self so that others thrive, and the focus on hearth and home.  If your number is ‘6’ (add your date of birth together) you also have a charm about you that can be irresistible. Problems rise when you have given yourself away and have nothing left for you.  It’s easy to see the Lovers in this number.  

‘15’ is the Devil card… and how you get to the Devil, is by ‘1’, the magician, and ‘5’, the Hierophant.  There is certainly magic and the twirling of the element going on when the Devil is hungry, and there is that Self-righteousness, that can be in the Hierophant.  Put the whirl and twirl of magical thinking and the Self-righteousness of a person that imagines them-selves superior and you can have some negative behavior going on.

Be mind-full and kind.

 

QUESTION TO PONDER

 

How do you sustain harmony and balance in your life?

When do you notice that you have ‘giving yourself away’ and there isn’t enough for just you?

If the ‘Devil made you do it’, what would you have done otherwise?

What patterns rise for you when life is going well and balanced, and you get restless to stir the pot up by creating disharmony?  Why?

How do you make sure that you are taking care of yourself as well as others?

How does the ‘be-devilment’ remind you of who you really are?

How do you trick yourself into believing the unbelievable?

How will you nurture your relationships in a healthy way?

How do you make friends with your devilish side?

What would you like to do differently from your usually pattern of caregiving that still feels like you are giving and receiving?
