Tarot and the Gates of Light: A Kabbalistic Path to Liberation Tarot and the Gates of Light: A Kabbalistic Path to Liberation Paperback – Illustrated, January 7, 2020 by Mark Horn (Author) ---Brand New--- An innovative, spiritual workbook that integrates the Tarot and the Kabbalistic tradition of Counting the Omer • Explores the origins and meaning of the 49-day Kabbalistic meditative practice of Counting the Omer and how it can lead to spiritual revelation, personal insight, and connection with the Divine • Reveals the correspondence of the Tarot’s minor arcana with the Sephirot of the Tree of Life and explains how both relate to the Omer meditation • Provides a daily practice workbook that explores the related Sephirot and Tarot cards for each day, examines their Kabbalistic and spiritual meanings, and provides questions for daily reflection and meditation guidance The 49-day mystical practice known as Counting the Omer is an ancient Jewish ritual observed between the holidays of Passover and Shavuot (also known as Pentecost). As practiced by Kabbalists, it is designed to cleanse and purify the soul in preparation for spiritual revelation and a personal connection with God. The ritual creates a spiritual inner journey that follows the path of the ancient Israelites from the moment of their physical freedom from slavery in Egypt to the establishment of their spiritual freedom forty-nine days later when they arrived at Mt. Sinai. Adeptly integrating this mystical practice with the transformative symbolism of the Tarot, Mark Horn uses the ritual of Counting the Omer as a template for a guided meditative practice that gives readers insight into their personal life journey and help in overcoming the issues that hinder their growth and spiritual awakening. Examining the correspondence of the Tarot’s minor arcana with the Sephirot of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, he shows how using the cards in connection with Counting the Omer can unlock the gates to a deep experience of the sacred. In the detailed daily practice workbook section, Horn provides day-by-day descriptions of the 49-day meditative practice of Counting the Omer. He divides the journey into seven week-long segments, which in turn are broken down into seven daily practices. For each day, he explains the related Sephirot and Tarot cards and their Kabbalistic and spiritual meanings, providing the reader with questions for daily reflection, guidance for meditation, and insight from traditional Jewish texts as well as teachings from Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, and Muslim traditions. Unveiling the relationship between Tarot and the Kabbalah, Horn shows readers how uniting these two practices can open them to a deeper experience of the Divine.

Reflections | Quaker faith & practice

After this I returned into Nottinghamshire again and went into the Vale of Beavor… And one morning, as I was sitting by the fire, a great cloud came over me and a temptation beset me; but I sat still. And it was said, ‘All things come by nature’; and the elements and stars came over me so that I was in a manner quite clouded with it. But inasmuch as I sat, still and silent, the people of the…

32 KM – Ein Damm wird zum Kunstprojekt

Der niederländische Abschlussdeich, der mit seiner Länge von 32 Kilometern das IJsselmeer von der Nordsee abtrennt und so verhindert, dass die Niederlande absaufen, ist an sich schon ein beeindruckendes Monument menschlicher Schaffenskraft.

Um dieses Bauwerk eine angemessene Würdigung zukommen zu lassen und den Menschen die Besonderheit seiner Existenz bewusster zu machen, hat das niederländische Designlab Studio Roosegaarde auf dem Damm ein dreiteiliges Kunst/Design-Projekt realisiert.

Der erste Teil sind die „Gates of Light“, eine Installation von reflektierenden Konturen, die die Bauwerke der Lorentz Schleusen durch von hindurchfahrenden Autos auf der Autobahn 7 illuminieren und dadurch ihre typische Architektur der 30er Jahre hervorheben.

Die zweite Station „Glowing Nature“ ist ein Boden gefüllt mit bioluminiszenten Algen, welche Besucher mit ihrem ganzen Körper austesten können.

Zuletzt folgt „Windvogel“, Windrachen, die an grün leuchtenden, stromgenerierenden Kabeln hängen (bis zu 100 kW) und nachts wirken, als ob es sich um frei schwebende leuchtende Bögen handelt.

Insgesamt ein sehr schönes Projekt, welches dem Damm eine weitere künstlerische Dimension gibt, über seine lebenswichtige und infrastrukturelle Komponente hinaus.
