The nineteenth card of the Tarot is associated with the sun.
It questions the phrase, “No pain, no gain.” Does growth really have to be uncomfortable? Is it possible to expand through play, fun, adventure, and celebration of life? If we ask this card, the answer is Yes. It’s Neville Goddard’s book title, ‘Relax More, Try Less.’ By getting into a state of, or following the feelings of calm, optimism, freedom, pleasure, curiosity, we will naturally and what *seems* to be effortlessly, be led to places of learning, experimentation, wonder, enlargement of self. This is the law of attraction. Trust the heart as a guide. Be the inner child. Life is meant to be reveled in. The nineteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, Qoph or Koph, can mean an outer shell, our spiritual nature (as opposed to- and united with-our animal nature), circling and expanding cycles.
Sunflowers symbolize warmth, strength, confidence and independence. Clearly, they’re linked to the sun (warm + dry/heart, back, spine). Their seeds are packed with vitamins and minerals, particularly vitamin E and selenium. They contain compounds that help reduce inflammation, heart disease and type two diabetes.
Jean Henri Gaston Giraud (May 8, 1938 – March 10, 2012) was a French artist, cartoonist and writer. Giraud garnered worldwide acclaim under the pseudonym Moebius, as well as Gir. Esteemed by Federico Fellini, Stan Lee and Hayao Miyazaki among others, his most famous works include the series Blueberry, created with writer Jean-Michel Charlier. As Moebius, he created a wide range of science fiction and fantasy comics in a highly imaginative, surreal, almost abstract style. He also collaborated with avant-garde filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky for an unproduced adaptation of Dune and the comic book series The Incal. Moebius contributed storyboards and concept designs to numerous science fiction and fantasy films, such as Alien, Tron, The Fifth Element and The Abyss. Blueberry was adapted for the screen in 2004 by French director Jan Kounen.
