new moon reading 🌑 (check ur rising sign!)

fire rising signs (aries, leo, sagittarius)

a period of change might be what's in store for you this moon cycle ahead. it's important to turn to the outside support and your loved ones's support during this time. this time of change will lead to a period of emotional growth and a fresh start regarding your soul and your mind - accept this change into your life as there is a purpose for it happening right now. approach difficult decisions and choices by accepting new knowledge and letting go of outdated ways of thinking that no longer serve you, and one way of doing that is not only including a daily spiritual practice in your life but also creating a routine that nourishes your physical body as well.

earth rising signs (taurus, virgo, capricorn)

while learning is gonna be one of the main themes this moon cycle for you the main lesson to learn is the lesson of learning how to teach the wisdom you receive. it's time to be thoughtful and helpful without expecting anything back, without neglecting your personal needs. it's time to try your hardest to come up with new ideas and keep checking in with your goals to stay focused. try to come together in harmony and listen to and consider each other's needs, thoughts and feelings. don't allow your own ideas to overrule everyone else's and try to keep communication as open and calm as possible.

air rising signs (gemini, libra, aquarius)

you may be exhausted from being stuck in one place or going round in circles and being confused about where to go next. this next moon cycle will bring clarity to all your questions - if you have been mistreated or have given more than you have taken, this moon cycle will bring an end for that. whilst pain and confusion might seen unbearable right now, it's important to feel whatever you need to feel. allow yourself to heal and don't bury bereavement away. before you know it, you can find yourself in a cluttered mess with too much to focus on and too many loose ends. it's time to shed longstanding issues and find completion with recent ones.

water rising signs (cancer, scorpio, pisces)

recovery might be one of the main themes for you this moon cycle. give yourself the time that you need to step back from life and heal. healing is not straightfoward and can take a while but making the move towards restoring health and wellbeing usually requires a series of steps. now is a good time to make major changes, take chances and explore some less safe options. trying a new direction could progress inner growth and lead to a more interesting path. shift your attention to the concept of release in order to transition to better times throughout this moon cycle - now is a time to master the skill of letting go.

bercilak - what patterns are unfolding in your life? what do you need to let go of? how are you limiting yourself? these are the questions bercilak has to ask you when your paths cross. bercilak is here to remind you the limits of your strength, to challenge and expand the way you embrace the concept of limitation and how you can overcome your self-limiting beliefs, in order for you to become strong enough to accept any challenges that might appear on your path. only by facing your deepest fears can you grow and only by accepting the challenges life brings can you move foward.

guinevere - guinevere is the great queen that appears in your way and asks you: what choices are before you? who or what makes you feel most complete? what is your greatest challenge at this moment? she appears in your life as a support of your self-esteem. learn how to draw upon the grace of queenship when you meet your challenges. she is here to remind you that you have all the resources you need within you and to teach you the lesson of commitment - once you undertake any task, whether great or small, you gotta take it until it is finished.

bors - bors is here to remind you of your own inner strength and inner compassion and that it is never shameful to ask for help of your loved ones. your family, whether it is your blood-related or chosen family is of great importance - never take for granted your loved ones. when was the last time you showed deep gratitude for those around you? who are the people in your life who kindle your dreaming soul? what is the best way of sharing the fruits of your hard work with those you care for the most? these are all questions bors advises you to answer during this time of your life.

14 temperance - the temperance card is all about transforming and transmuting the challenges of your past into something more productive, because the temperance is, by excellence, the alchemist of the major arcana. she is the one who is aware of her heart and her mind, her body and her soul, what her ego wants and what her higher self wants. only when we start to become able to distinguish what we want from what we should want, when we start embracing both times of rest and times of hard work, we become capable of achieving true moderation.

6 of cups - the sixes are usually how we pick ourselves up from the mess of the fives, and in the case of the six of cups, this card is all about nostalgia, for the better of the worse.

sixes can be seen as bridges of the minor arcana, in this case the six of cups acts as a bridge from childhood to adulthood. the six of cups is here to remind us to embrace what is good right now, and one way of achieving that is through the healing, nourishing and embracing of your own inner child.

10 of pentacles - a cycle is complete, and now is a time of celebration not in a solitary way but with our loved ones around. this is a card that is not only about enjoying your work and what you have achieved, but also about the legacy that you are leaving behind. in the terms of self-care, the ten of pentacles is all about being able to rest at the end of a cycle. perhaps you've been working a lot in your own personal creative projects with little to no space for resting. now is a time to do that.

The Lovers: Symbolism & Meaning

To celebrate Saint Valentine's Day here is a breakdown post all about the Lovers card from the Major Arcana!

"The Lovers card asks us to dive into relationships with curiosity, a sense of wonder and playfulness, loyality and commitment. Intimacy creates understanding. Understanding creates equality consciousness. Love and relationships of all kinds can prove to be very valuable in the forming of who we are and how we interact with the external world". — Michelle Mae Orr, "Tarot".

Hebrew Letter: Zain ז

Number: 6

Astrological Correspondence: Gemini

Title: Children of the Voice; the Oracles of the Mighty Gods

The Letter Zain ז

Meaning: Sword or Armour

Gematria: 7

"Zain means sword. A sword is a weapon of both offense and defense. It is the weapon of invoked force. (...) A sword is also an instrument of division, separating one thing from another." — Lon Milo Duquette, "The Chicken Qabalah".

Number 6

"The Pythagoreans held the hexad (6) to represent, as Clement of Alexandria conceived, the creation of the world according to both the prophets and the ancient Mysteries. It was called by the Pythagoreans the perfection of all the parts. This number was particularly sacred to Orpheus, and also to the Fate, Lachesis, and the Muse, Thalia. It was called the form of the forms the articulation of the universe, and the maker of the soul.

Among the Greeks, harmony and the soul were considered to be similar in nature, because all souls are harmonic. The hexad is also the symbol of marriage, because it is formed by the union of two triangles, one masculine and the other feminine." — Manly P. Hall, "Secret Teachings of All Ages".

The Zodiac Sign of Gemini

"The constellation of Gemini is generally represented as two small children, who, according to the ancients, were born out of eggs, possibly the ones that the Bull broke with his horns. The stories concerning Castor and Pollux, and Romulus and Remus, may be the result of amplifying the myths of these celestial Twins. The symbols of Gemini have passed through many modifications. The one used by the Arabians was the peacock. Two of the important stars in the constellation of Gemini still bear the names of Castor and Pollux. The sign of Gemini is supposed to have been the patron of phallic worship, and the two obelisks, or pillars, in front of temples and churches convey the same symbolism as the Twins." — Manly P. Hall, "Secret Teachings of All Ages".

The Lovers in the Waite-Smith Tarot

"It is a card of married life, shewing father and mother, with their child placed between them; and the pagan Cupid above. (...) The Cupid is of love beginning rather than of love in its fulness, guarding the fruit thereof. (...) The figures are also held to have signified Truth, Honour and Love." — Arthur Edward Waite, "The Pictorical Key to the Tarot".

The Lovers in the Thoth Tarot

"This card and Atu XIV [Temperance] together compose the comprehensive alchemical maxim: Solve et coagula.

This card is consequently one of the most fundamental cards in the Tarot. It is the first card in which more than one figure appears." — Aleister Crowley, "Book of Thoth".

"Solve et coagula is a story of marriage and pregnancy. The main character in this alchemical love story is not the bride nor the groom, but the child of their union. In the Thoth Tarot, the child is symbolized as the Orphic egg that, as Crowley reminds us, represents the essence of all life that comes under the formula of male and female." — Lon Milo Duquette, "Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot".

The Lovers in the Hermetic Tarot

"Andromeda is shown chained to a rock and threatened by a dragon rising from the waters of stagnation. Perseus quickly wields a sword to protect her against the dragon. (...) It is important to study this card along with the card XIV, Temperance (Sagittarius). The Lovers card also pertains to Sagittarius - the Archer - hence the bow and arrow at the upper center." — Godfrey Downson, "The Hermetic Tarot".

Divinatory Meanings:

Attraction, love, beauty, trials overcome. Reversed: Failure, foolish designs. Another account speaks of marriage frustrated and contrarieties of all kinds. (Arthur Edward Waite, "The Pictorical Key to the Tarot");

Openness to inspiration, intuition, intelligence, second sight, childishness, frivolity, thoughtfulness, divorced from practical consideration, indecision, self-contradiction, triviality (Lon Milo Duquette, "Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot").

Inspiration, motivation, love, beauty, action, impulse, harmony. Reversed: Separation, frustration in love and marriage, failure to meet the test. (Godfrey Downson, "The Hermetic Tarot").

card of the week ⚾ (check ur rising sign!)

fire risings (aries, leo, sagittarius)

62 the glanconer - have you ever noticed that when we really, really want someone or something, we tend to see it without clarity? the object of our lust looks flawless and glamorous, which should tell us something right away. but, usually, it doesn't. the glanconer doesn't change his shape to tempt us with our own mental confusions and paradoxes. he simply wears a mirror in which we see our desires temptingly displayed. he doesn't try to fool us; he simply allows us to fool ourselves. it is not good to make decisions when blinded by lust. whether it is lust for a person, a thing, or an idea, we need to pause and take our time before making actual commitments.

earth risings (taurus, virgo, capricorn)

21 the faery who was kissed by the pixies - this faery, morna, is the queen of love - all kinds of love: brotherly, sisterly, parental, friendly, unconditional or conditional, either or both. here we see morna in her role as heart surgeon, using the power of love to help us open our hearts when we have closed them out of fear, helping us to expand and become more of what we have the potential to be. morna would like to help us learn to love others without conditions, and she also would like us to learn to love while still staying properly centered within ourselves.

air risings (gemini, libra, aquarius)

52 the rarr - rarrs are not naughty or wicked, just energetic. they are also not very discriminating. they like to join into whatever excitement is going on and add energy to it. in a way, they are pure potential, and they potentize whatever is happening. a rarr in your life encourages you to be especially attentive to what you are doing with your energy and intentions. don't get carried away by the rarr's bouncy enthusiasm, but do take advantage of the energy. you can accomplish a great deal with the energy being made available to you. when you encounter the rarr, breathe slowly. center. earth yourself. be clear about your objectives and then go for them.

water risings (cancer, scorpio, pisces)

40 honesty - honesty speaks of the need for straight dealing and truth in representation. we need to be scrupulously honest here, making certain that there is no room for confusion or misunderstanding, no fuzzy edges. both written and verbal agreements need to be completely clear. honesty reminds us not only to be clear in what we say and do, but also to act and speak with compassion and tact. brutal honesty is not usually true honesty at all. dishonesty, even in the name of tact, is not helpful either. honest humility, idealism, and clarity of mind are some of the advantages of honesty.

the turning path - this path is both challenging and enlivening, since the places we may find ourselves often have something valuable to teach. life can be full of tricks and turns, and this the turning path expresses that better than any. we are all human and experience the highs and lows of life at every level of our being. we often find ourselves under a constant barrage of demands on time and energy and this can create more stress than we can cope with. in the face of powerful negative urges, you should always try to remember your humanity.

the honoured path - this is a difficult road for many of us. it is a road of choices, not always easy to see or to make. amid the stresses and strains of life, we seldom seek out or find places to rest and take stock. yet these moments of reflection are of the greatest importance and may mean the difference between a better life and one with less hope. whenever you can, take time to reassess the situation that troubles you, and seek the most revelatory sources of refreshment. no matter what you are seeking right now, give yourself the gift of time to find what it is that most sustains you and offers the greatest opportunity for healing and inspiration.

the resolute path - this path is to be walked by those who require healing, or those who at this moment are seeking a resolution to troubles that impede your path and bring you to an impasse. if you come in search of solutions that lie beyond your own ability to realize, the answers you seek may come in dreams that open up yet deeper meanings and resources - or perhaps are already shimmering on the horizon of your awareness, beckoning you with fresh promise. take some time to rediscover what led you to this place and time.

card for the week ☕ (check ur rising sign!)

fire rising signs (aries, leo, sagittarius)

1 unity - as a singer of the realm, unity is constantly with us, and their energy and compassion is always available. sometimes the singers act in our lives very subtly; at other times their presence is almost palpable - intense and clear. when we are helped by unity, we do not always get what we expect. sometimes what we receive may be very unexpected - but it is always what we need. move towards allowing others be closer to you, gradually dropping the defensive attitudes that hold them away and keep you alone. in meditation and prayer, ask to be in communion with the unity deep within yourself. in unity there is trust, love, and ecstasy.

earth rising signs (taurus, virgo, capricorn)

46 the friends - as children, we all have faery playmates and faery guardians. as we grow older, the pressure of parents and others in our community often nag us into blocking our visions of and communications with the faeries. friendly cooperation with others is necessary to reach mutual goals. willingness to give and receive assistance and support is also required. ask friends for help and suggestions, listen with respect, and accept the gifts willingly offered. unconditional receiving is even more difficult than unconditional giving. four feet are more stable than two. someone you love may be needing your help and be too bound up by fear of rejection or pride to ask. volunteer your help to your friends and give unconditionally from a generous, loving heart.

air rising signs (gemini, libra, aquarius)

32 iris of the rainbows - as one of the faery guides and guardians, iris of the rainbow is one of the faeries who devote time and energy to directly guiding humans as we develop our special talents and gifts and our own natural magic. every denizen of faery is, in her own way, helping the worlds, ours and theirs, move toward greater harmony. we are, too, each in our own way. at this point, it is useful to ask ourselves what we still need to release, and to look after protecting and nurturing the seeds we have planted. iris suggests that the cultivation of patience may also be helpful at this time.

water rising signs (cancer, scorpio, pisces)

26 o! that gnome - this is the trickster who exists in every world. he comes to us wearing our own faces to fool us into thinking that his ideas are our own. he brings creative chaos into our lives. he helps us break down old habits by showing us how silly they are. he encourages us to fall on our faces so that we get a different point of view, looking us past our mud-smeared noses. that gnome tells us that the forces of chaos are at work. things may not be what they seem, and this may very well be a good thing. look for the unexpected, find the opportunity in it, and go for it.

full moon reading 🌕 (check ur rising sign!)

fire rising signs (aries, leo, sagittarius)

suffering and hiding emotions might have been two of the major themes of this moon cycle for you - perhaps this is about you or someone in specific in your life, which might have made you feel uncertain of people or situations in your life you once were sure of. little sparks of enjoyment can carry you through when times are rough. as the moon is starting to decrease, it's important to check in with yourself and your loved ones to make sure nobody is struggling, to take time and listen to those around you, and make sure the people in question are also good listenners when it comes to your own wants and needs.

earth risign signs (taurus, virgo, capricorn)

you have been more aware of your own needs this moon cycle, as well as your own mistakes and limitations. this might be in the context of the relationships of your life, especially in a familiar context, whether regarding your blood family or your chosen one. for the rest of this moon cycle, it is important to keep in mind that everyone, no matter how young or old they might be, has something to teach you. the love that you have for those around you is strong. a period of unstability might be what's in store for you as the moon starts to decrease - however, that state of uncertainity can be overcomed by open communication, kindness and most importantly self-awareness.

air rising signs (gemini, libra, aquarius)

you might have felt like you reached the bottom of the well this moon cycle. like you are not on the path you are supposed to be. this may be a confusing time and might come with feeling a loss of self-identity and lack of hope. you might not have been able to achieve all the goals you wanted, but you should make space for yourself to be able to understand where you are improving and reward yourself once in a while. for the rest of the moon cycle, it is advised for you to reflect on how you got yourself on the path you currently are at - and to brainstorm ways of getting out of there. it's time to take a break, catch up on aspects of your life that have been neglected and focus on nourishing your body. don't ignore the warning signs as failure to act will only make the situation worse. only then you will be able to get out of the bottom of the well.

water rising signs (cancer, scorpio, pisces)

co-operation has been the main theme this moon cycle for you. however, you might have been so busy focusing on the relationships of your life that you are starting to neglect your own wants and needs, to the point that you might have started seeing the people you are supposed to be co-operating with as adversaries. if you stick to your own values and ideas, it will be easier to create an independent path and will keep these struggles at bay. try to listen to only the opinions of those you respect. otherwise you might start to feel like you're walking the wrong path.

page of pentacles - when in business, some young fairies have radical ideas, which often clash with tradition. the page of pentacles represents a young man with brilliant and new ideas. pages are the eternal students of the tarot, the ones who seek knowledge for the sake of curiosity without having any specific direction in mind. when was the last time you have approached the world through the lens of your inner child? now's an opportune time to try that. the quality of the earth as well as pentacles is slow and steady, and not quick like air and swords, or flammable fire and wands. the page of pentacles is reminding you to take things slow, one step at a time - because if you don't do that, you might just stumble.

knight of wands - the big winter chill often ruins fairies wings. this event is the sign that the time for leaving has come. the times are ripe for a long journey to a remote land, wihout looking back. the knights of the tarot are going places. they are the characters that know where they wanna go and how to go there. when it comes to the knight of wands, he is going fast - extremly confident of his own skills and sense of direction. excitement seems to be a big theme of your life at the moment. that's good! confidence is key. however, don't forget to take a step back occasionally and give space for a lil self reflexion in your life.

10 the wheel of fortune - the wheel of fortune is the spirit of luck; he travels through the enchanted realm riding his wheel and who meets him must expect propitious occasions, success and casually born advantages. some times, the wheel of fortune lifts you until you feel like you're in the top of the world - others, it painfully crushes you. some times, the wheel of fortune makes its presence in your life when you randomly stumble upon a dear friend on public transportation. others, it makes its presence noticed in your life when you end up stumbling upon someone who you are not in good terms with. in order for you to be able to enjoy the 1st, you gotta also allow the 2nd option to be available to enter your life. embrace the light and dark, not only within you, but without.

card of the week 🍊 (check ur rising sign!)

fire rising signs (aries, leo, sagittarius)

1 unity - unity comes first and last. in between we have the illusion of duality, which we all believe in for a very long time. it is an illusion through which we pass, through which we learn and grow, and then once again return to unity. this card is asking you to remember the mystical concept that we are all one, unified and holistic universe. it is a reminder to look at the needs and goals we have in common with others, and seek cooperation and community action rather than attempting to do everything on our own. to achieve our goals, we need the active cooperation of others; and to get that cooperation, we must be helpful to them and willing to work with their ideas as well as our own.

earth rising signs (taurus, virgo, capricorn)

32 iris of the rainbows - blue skies are the realm of iris, the rainbow faery. iris tells you that light is breaking through your present darkness, and that hope is a powerful factor in speeding up this process. she is not promising that the storm is over, nor does she say that it will never storm again, but she does say that there is brightness and beauty here. she is telling you that something is to be gained by this passage through the storm. a passage through the storm is a time of potential growth, a time to allow the dead wood of our past to be blown away to make room for the green shoots of new growth. ask yourself what you need to release, and to look after protecting and nurturing the seeds you have planted.

air rising signs (gemini, libra, aquarius)

56 gloominous doom - self-pity is the first step on the slipery, seductive slide toward self-destruction. gloominous doom is looking over you right now, more specifically he is observing the way you are cursing yourself at this stage in your life. when we curse others through sending the energy of malice and ill toward them, they may reject our sendings. however, when we curse ourselves through self-pity and self-destructive attitudes, there is little, if any, resistance, and the curse takes immediate effect - and continues to act until we change our attitudes. it is time to face the fact that our attitudes and beliefs about ourselves are our own. we may have learned them from others, but the others are not responsible for them in the here and now. we are. if we choose self-pity and pessimism, we make a choice that makes our lives worse.

water rising signs (cancer, scorpio, pisces)

7 the singer of intuition - the song of the singer of intuition carries all of the information there is, about our past, present and future, as well as everything there is to know about our body, mind and soul. the way we can have access to hearing their song is through stillness. what we get from practicing stillness (through, for example, meditation) and listening (when we simply take the action of listening and wait for the answer) is the ability to understand and interpret metasymbols, like the symbolism between oracle cards. information is available to you if you learn how to listen to your own inner knowing. perhaps you have already heard it and are in a stage of doubting yourself. the singer says this is the time to really learn to listen to your own intuition. seek solitude, meditate and practice stillness alongside patience.

you might be feeling trapped at this stage of your life - however, it's important to realise that there are some circumstances that you just don't have any influence over. you might have a feeling right now of being on the wrong path in either a specific area of your life or overall. it's time to reignite excitement - in your relationships, job, hobbies or creativity this moon cycle. the king of winter highlights the importance of learning, building your skillset and keeping a consistent, motivated attitude in order to follow your desired path. reach out for your family if you need help, whether that is your chosen family or a relative you trust during this moon cycle.

earth rising signs (taurus, virgo, capricorn)

you will be hearing a lot of news this moon cycle. the digitalis card indicates the need for moderation, only taking what you need and recognising that everyone is equal. happiness is coming soon: treat yourself by creating something to express gratitude for you and your friends. it is a time to express gratitude and appreciation towards your loved ones. keep your core values to your heart all the time. allow yourself to be vulnerable and honest. show emotions and express your thoughts openly with your loved ones. it's time to start manifesting your ideas and goals! this is the perfect moon cycle for manifestation and exploring your goals in your journals and through spell-work.

air rising signs (gemini, libra, aquarius)

change is arriving this moon cycle for you. this could indicate a new figure in your life, maybe an unexpected offer or gif or even an end of a cycle. do not let your fear of change make you lose hope in the world but let the experience add to your strength. protect what is already yours and is important for you. this moon cycle is also all about knowing how and when to set boundaries and learning how to stand up for yourself. it is a time to choose love over fear and to reflect where you want to go with your current relationships and/or new ones that might appear in your path. journaling is a great way to get your thoughts out onto the page and to adress them.

water rising signs (cancer, scorpio, pisces)

there might be a tendency for you to overwork yourself throughout this moon cycle, possibly relating to work or school. you will need to put lots of energy out there this moon cycle, but don't forget to occasionally give yourself the rest you deserve. one way of giving yourself some rest is through travelling, adventure and exploration. go to new places you haven't visited before and allow yourself to get out of your comfort zone. re-evaluate your goals and needs: only then can the action and change can happen and you can give time for yourself, which is a particularly subject for you this moon cycle in order to avoid burnout.
