May 16, 2024

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. Visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. This September Full Moon will be the forth and final supermoon of 2023.

During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Four of Water

The explanation of Four of Water Osho Zen Tarot

The woman in Four of Water Osho Zen Tarot is showing a soft smile on her face. In fact, she was just observing what the mind was doing; not judging, not trying to stop nor analyzing them. She only saw them as passersby, like a ripple on the lake. And the antics of the mind are always hilarious, they keep jumping up and down, twisting in many ways, trying to attract attention and entice us into the game.

Being able to develop abilities in creating a distance from the mind is one of the great favors. Those are the things we do when we meditate, chant, or repeat an affirmation, but we only look at it, as if they belong to someone else’s mind. Right now, you are ready to create this distance, to watch the show without getting caught up in the drama. Let’s immerse yourself in the simple freedom of Turning In whenever possible and knack of meditation will develop and deepen in you.

The energy of Four of Water Osho Zen Tarot based on Osho’s teachings

Turning inwards is not a turning at all. Going inwards is not a going at all. Turning inwards simply means that you have been running after this desire and that, and you have been running and running and you have been coming again and again to frustration.

That each desire brings misery, that there is no fulfillment through desire. That you never reach anywhere, that contentment is impossible.

Seeing this truth, that running after desires takes you nowhere, you stop. Not that you make any effort to stop. If you make any effort to stop it is again running, in a subtle way. You are still desiring–maybe now it is desirelessness that you desire. If you are making an effort to go in, you are still going out. Any effort can only take you out, outwards.

All journeys are outward journeys, there is no inward journey. How can you journey inwards? You are already there, there is no point in going. When going stops, journeying disappears; when desiring is no more clouding your mind, you are in. This is called turning in. But it is not a turning at all, it is simply not going out.

Quiert

Delight, respite, celebration

Tree: Apple (Malus spp.)

Letter: Q

The apple is an ancient symbol of bounty, harmony, and completion. True to symbolism, Quiert indicates a time of well-deserved rest, or at least that you deserve rest even if you are unable to have enough of it. Constant activity goes against the flow of nature. Our society, which seeks to progress at an ever-faster pace until the human race metastasizes across the universe, has got it all wrong. Slowing down is the appropriate action in many cases, for instance after a period of activity or at the culmination of a big project.

There is great delight in the smallest periods of rest, whether that means taking the time to thank the person at the restaurant for making your sandwich (just because you paid for it with money does not mean verbal gratitude goes unappreciated) or to give a firm, polite “no” when someone deliberately or unwittingly threatens your peace of mind by asking too much of you. Quiert speaks of the sweetness of small human gestures and petite graces. Without them, civilization wouldn’t be quite so civilized, nor would it be as worthy of holding together.

Quiert might also indicate a longer resting/healing time for you or for someone else, or that rest is needed. Quiert says, “Don’t forget to stop and smell the roses. Observe. Live in the moment instead of always planning for the perfect future or reliving the past.” It is a marker of gratitude in general, and the slowness required to fully sense the world around us.

Hexagram 61

Chung Fu / Inner Truth

The gentle Wind ripples the Lake’s surface:
The Superior Person finds common ground between points of contention, wearing away rigid perspectives that would lead to fatal error.

Pigs and fishes.
You may cross to the far shore.
Great fortune if you stay on course.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

The subject of this hexagram discovers a key to Tranquility by first gaining insight into his own nature, then turning that vision outward.
By resolving inner conflicts and being at peace with himself, he learns to gain insight into others.
In effect, he enters another, sees with the other’s eyes, listens with the other’s ears, feels with the other’s heart.
He then returns to his own center, with new perspective and understanding.

Magickal timing: Choosing the right day of the week for your spell

Planetary magick is a complex system which blends astrology, ancient cosmology, and celestial intelligences in an attempt to bring the most effective results. In this article, we’ll discuss the planetary rulers of the seven days of the week, and the best day to perform different types of magick.

Planetary magic can seem cumbersome, especially to Witches more accustomed to elemental (Earth) magic.  But you don’t have to spend hours drafting talismans or poring over charts to add some planetary flavor to your spellwork. Using a very simple overview of magickal timing, you can make sure your working is aligned with the appropriate planetary ruler.

The idea of planetary rulership (and the 7-day week) dates all the way back to Chaldean (Babylonian) astrology.  They assigned a planet to rule each day, and further divided the day into planetary hours.  Later, the Greek and Roman civilizations adapted the Babylonian calender for their use.  Planetary magic was re-discovered by the medieval magicians, who looked to the Classical world for inspiration.  The tradition of using different days for different types of magic was put forth in the 16th-century Key of Solomon, a foundational text of the Western magical tradition.

Planetary magick relies mainly on the seven Classical “planets,” (although minor planets, comets, and other features enter into advanced systems).  Of the seven, the sun and moon aren’t really planets, of course.  But ancient astrologers didn’t know that, so the nickname stuck.

In English (as well as in French, Spanish and related languages), the names of the days of the week still reflect their planetary rulers.  (This is very handy when you’re trying to remember which is which!)

9 Of Wands – Minor Arcana

Meaning

When the 9 of Wands Tarot card appears, it is a gentle nudge from the Universe that you are doing everything right.

It seems to be a slow-moving and stalemate position card, but that is only half true. No action is happening in this card, so making a big move on a key issue is advised against. Instead, pull back, retreat into defensive mode, and assess the situation. You will find that you are farther along in this situation than you initially felt.

This is a courageous card, noting the courage you have exuded along the way in your battles. This card also says your patience will be rewarded if you keep your current course.

Symbolism

When the 9 of Wands Tarot card appears in your day, know that the Tarot is sending a message to acknowledge and validate your sense of perseverance and patience. This card also denotes courage.

This is not an action card but a card to say your patience will pay off. Here we see a man in an almost defensive position. He holds one wand close to his chest, and the others are all up in front of him, almost like a barrier. He looks guarded and peeks between the wands to see what lies ahead. What does he find? A glorious horizon. When this card appears in your day, know that the battles you have been facing are drawing to a close, and your courage will pay off.

Cougar

Cougar meanings and symbolism include protection, agility, adaptability, secrecy, beauty, and wealth. The cougar (also referred to as a mountain lion, puma, or panther) is native to the Americas, with a range that spans from the Yukon in Canada all the way to Tierra del Fuego in Argentina. As a result, these wild cats are subjects in the mythology of cultures throughout the Americas.

In this post, you’ll learn about cougar symbolism and meanings, the cougar spirit animal, and cougar mythology. This post will also include the symbolism and mythology of the mountain lion, panther, and puma (the alternative names for cougar) and I may use the words interchangeably throughout this post.

Onn

Pronunciation – uhn

Tree Association – Gorse

Meaning – Spiritual paths, lust, arousal, spiritual guidance, and movement. Onn also represents the health and vitality of intimacy and sexuality. Do not feel bashful about what you desire and allow yourself to experience pleasure fully. Onn can also represent forward motion or movement similar to a wagon wheel. It can be indicative that you need to examine and deepen your connection with your spiritual journey or change your life’s direction. Movement can also indicate an actual trip or moving to a new home.

If reversed – Complications, peril, unhealthy behaviors, and danger. You may be putting yourself in jeopardy by taking too many chances. Do your best to slow down and find the path that is right for you.

Inscription and Magical Uses – Helpful for safe journeys or travel, physical movement issues (health or physical therapy), or to remove obstacles from your path.

Folklore – Gorse was believed to be protective obstructions when planted around the home and would keep the Sidhe (faerie folk) away. It was also used in a famous saying – “When gorse is out of bloom, kissing is out of season.”

One

One, among the numbers of the numerological core, is a clear evidence that you are entrusted with a certain mission, and sooner or later you will have to accomplish it. You won’t manage to stay away from situations requiring courage and determination and avoid complications and responsibility forever. The day is sure to come when you perform an Action with a capital A. And it will be the major step on your way, the most striking fact of biography, the action for which you will be assessed by your contemporaries and remembered by your descendants.

One Hundred Thirty

When you see this number repeatedly, that’s a sign that you still question the reason for your existence on this Earth. 130 serves as the beginning point for a newer, better life. If you feel discouraged and you’re on the verge of giving up, your angels compel you to keep striving forward through the number 130. Whenever this number appears in your life, know that you have the power to overcome whatever challenges and obstacles you may be going through. Your angels support you in everything you do, and they urge you to stay broad-minded to live a life full of new expectations.

One of the most interesting facts about angel numbers is that their hidden universal energies lie in their individual digits. In this case, the vibrations and energies of the three numbers—1, 3, and 0— hold the secret meaning of the 130 angel number.

Number 1

Number 1’s a powerful number. It sets solid foundations in the life of a discouraged soul and assures them of new beginnings in the future.

This same number also serves as a special sign from your angels that you’re destined for a life full of success and happiness.

Number 3

Number 3’s vibrational influence enhances your creativity, which, in turn, boosts your inspiration and motivation to spark growth in your life. 3 is a number of progress and blessings.

Number 0

Lastly, number 0’s symbolism is centered around infinity, eternity, and nothingness. This number is the Divine Source’s paradox that goes beyond our limited understanding as human beings, and it also amplifies the influence of the other two numbers.

Number 130

With the information gathered, we can now say that number 130’s a sign that you should take positive action in your life. Number 1’s assurance of new beginnings, number 3’s creativity, and number 0’s infinity combine to give you reason to have a more positive self-expression.

Spell For Tuesday – Love and Sweetness Candle Dressing

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

LOVE SPELL WARNING: Love spells such as this one take the person who you want to love you free will/spirit away. What happens with a spell like this is the person will become obsessed with you to the point of possibly losing their job, which in turn can make them lose their home, automobile, friends, their family, etc. I have heard of people under love spells dying from not eating or drinking when they are not in the presence of the spellcaster 24/7/365. So, unless you want some who only loves you because of a spell you put on them then go for it. But if you want someone to love you because they feel that emotion towards you then please do not do this spell. The same warning goes for animals, birds, reptiles, or anything else that has a heart and can create a bond with someone.

Love and Sweetness Candle Dressing

Not all candles dressings have to include oil. There are many other creative and meaningful ways to make your herbs stick to your candle, like in this recipe. Instead of using oil, the candle will be coated with maple syrup. As a sugary liquid, maple syrup is associated with sweetness and attraction. If you find it to sticky, try mixing it with a few drops of water to dilute it.

For anointing, you will need:

1/2 teaspoon maple syrup

1/2 teaspoon white sugar

1/2 teaspoon crushed rose petals

1 pinch orris root powder

This dressing can be used on any candles that are burned during love spells, including those surround the place where you do your magical working. If you are doing a spell for attraction using two candles (for example, two candles shaped like human beings bound together), the stickiness of the maple syrup serves to fuse the couple together even further. If you don’t like maple syrup, you can use honey, sugar water, or even a really sweet beverage.

“Indulge your creative, imaginative, and magical side through some form of artistic expression”

Whatever the artist vehicle through which you express your most creative self — whether it’s drawing, poetry, painting, music, acting or any other form of creative expression — make it a priority in your life by devoting some time, energy, and perhaps even money toward this artistic pursuit. Let the longing of your heart determine what the form of your imaginative expression is, but let it be one that elicits passion, and purpose. Allow it to evoke as needed, without acceding to any internal perfectionism about the end product. The process itself is where the magic is. Let that alone be your satisfaction and delight you’ll be pleased with the results.

Whether this avocation continues as a hobby or turns into something you receive compensation for, never do it solely for the money. There’s need to act out the starving artist scenario, but when you make monetary rewards your primary goal, you risk stifling the creative pulse that emanates from the core of who you are, potentially comprising the integrity of your artistic gift to the world. Should you ever be uncertain about following your passion with this kind of expression, take some time to observe children. Notice how innocently and imaginatively the play in their world, particularly when unhindered by social restrictions and artificial boundaries. The is a reflection of the magical child who’s inside you, begging to explore and be expressed. So have fun!

You can look forward to important gatherings soon or the dissolution of joint ventures. Even facing an enemy straight on.

Fearn/Fern

F is for Fearn or Fern, which is associated with the Alder tree. The Alder is representative of the evolving spirit. Connected with the month of March and the spring equinox, Alder is the symbol of Bran in Celtic mythology. In The Mabinogion, Bran laid himself across a river as a bridge so that others might cross–likewise, the Alder bridges that magical space between earth and the heavens. It is also associated with oracular powers–Bran’s head was an oracle in legend.

Alders are often found in swampy, boggy areas, and conveniently, their wood doesn’t rot when it gets wet. In fact, if left to soak in water, it becomes hardened. This came in handy when early Britons were building strongholds in bogs. The city of Venice, Italy, was originally built upon piles of Alder wood. Once it’s dry, though, Alder tends to be less than durable.

Fearn Correspondences

Mundane Aspects: Keep in mind that you are an individual… but so is everyone else. When you look at someone, see the unusual which makes them themselves–and allow them to see that uniqueness in you. Be a mediator, a bridge, between people who may be having a disagreement.

Magical Aspects: Follow your instinct. Others will turn to you for advice and counsel during spiritual disagreements, and it’s your job to be the mediator and voice of reason.

Hexagram Thirty/30

Li / Igniting

Fire sparks more Flames:
The Superior Person holds an inner Fire that ignites passion in every heart it touches, until all the world is enlightened and aflame.

With so searing a flame, success will not be denied you.
Take care to be as peaceful and nurturing as the cow in the meadow; you are strong enough to be gentle.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

A Promethean flame is delivering light and heat to the situation at hand.
This radiance will cause such an alchemical transformation of circumstances that the changes will seem magical, miraculous.
Yet they are only shifts of perspective and attitude that bring clarity.
The passions kindled by this fire must be harnessed and used judiciously, or they threaten to consume your hopes and dreams.

All Signs

This week promises social opportunities and exciting romance! Monday is an ideal day to break free from routine and explore new vistas. (At least a new coffee shop.) Monday night is a great date night! Tuesday continues to be friendly and sociable; but Wednesday is crunchy. Oops. Wednesday is tough. Fortunately, Friday sets the tone for a fabulous weekend for romance, socializing, exploring the arts and having fun! Love at first sight can happen on Saturday when Venus is lined up with unpredictable Uranus. And in some cases, this will lead to marriage where two people take turns mashing the trash down in the hopes the other one will cave first and empty the bin.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Although this is a fun-loving, sociable week, your primary focus will be on money, cash flow and earnings. Ka-ching! You’ll have moneymaking ideas, and because your ruler fiery Mars is in your sign, this means you won’t be afraid to act on them. Oh yeah! In fact, you have boundless energy this week! By the end of the week, you might receive a windfall or a gift, or you might literally find money. Or you might score something amazing when shopping, perhaps a surprising antique? Expect ways to sweeten your assets and fatten your coffers in a sudden way at the end of the week because this is entirely likely! Keep your eyes open because you might have to look. Be alert.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a lovely, friendly week for you. The Sun, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Uranus are all in your sign, boosting your energy and enthusiasm, which will make you a powerful communicator. Many will be attracted to your optimistic energy. (Enthusiasm is contagious.) This is an excellent week to buy wardrobe goodies. And because something unexpected and fortunate will happen at the end of the week, you might want to shop on Saturday to take advantage of this lucky influence of sudden good fortune. Saturday is also a great day to look for a job or negotiate because unexpected opportunities will bless you. The weekend will be a productive time for you. (Meanwhile, do be aware of the possibility that someone around you does not have your best interests at heart. Keep your eyes open. Trust your hunches.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Although social opportunities abound this week, many of you will choose to play things low-key and enjoy your privacy because this is what you really want to do right now. Basically, this is because your personal year is coming to an end, and before your birthday arrives, you need some time to let the dust settle and think about what you want for your personal new year ahead. Nevertheless, competition with sports or groups or classes might take place for some of you. One thing is certain: with Mars in your 11th House, (something that can occur only once every two years for about six weeks) this is the perfect time to formulate goals for the future! Ideas?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Get ready to socialize this week because it will be a popular time for you! Many of you will be active with younger people more than usual, as well as creative and artistic people. You’re also ambitious at this time about achieving your goals, which is why you might attract help from others. This weekend, especially Saturday, something unusual or unexpected will occur that changes things for you. You might meet someone unusual. You might spontaneously join a club or an organization. You might fall in love with someone. In fact, this person might be a friend or a casual acquaintance and suddenly voila! Things are turning romantic! Who knew?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You’re looking swell this week, dear Leo because four planets are at the top of your chart. Not only will people notice you, they will listen to you. Because of this celestial advantage, this is an excellent time to go after what you want. Push the limits. Demand the advantage. Talk to bosses and authority figures. Make your pitch. (You get the idea.) Meanwhile, grab any chance to get outta Dodge because you need a change of scenery. Oh yes, you want some adventure in your life! You should know that these qualities combined will give you the ability to influence others. In part, this is because you identify with your beliefs now and will defend them with passion!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Life is thrilling for most of you at this time because you’re motivated to do something different. You’re eager to learn, which means many of you are studying or reading or meeting people from different backgrounds so that you can expand your knowledge of the world. Likewise, you’re motivated to travel because you want a change of scenery. You want adventure! You want the thrill of discovery! Because of this strong desire and motivation – you will make these things happen. If you can’t travel far, you can be a tourist in your own neighbourhood. All kinds of exciting, fresh things will be revealed to you. Perhaps even new love because Saturday is a time that is ripe for love at first sight!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You’re a social sign and this is a sociable week! Nevertheless, you’re dealing with taxes, debt, shared property, inheritances and insurance issues. (These are loose ends you have to work out.) Fortunately, the gods are with you! Gifts, goodies and favours from others will come your way. And they will surprise you. Therefore, keep your pockets open and hope for the best. Meanwhile, be patient with partners and close friends because fiery Mars is opposite your sign, which makes you irritated with others. Hint: Visualize these feelings of irritation floating up into a little cloud above your head that drifts away and dissolves.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This week there are many possibilities for you in terms of close friendships, relationships and partnerships. To begin with, your focus is strong in these areas, and the presence of Venus and Jupiter will ensure smooth relations with others. Everything is hunky-dory. However, this same astrological influence might suddenly provoke new love, unexpected flirtations and sudden introductions that turn into something exciting! With this in mind, look your best when you go out. And if love at first sight doesn’t happen, walk by a second time. Even though you have this strong focus for socializing with others and meeting potential new love, you’re also working hard this week. (You deserve dessert.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

More than any other sign, the phrase “work hard/party hard” applies to you because you love the outdoors, you love animals, you love physical activities and you love to party. And when it comes to work – you’re no slouch. This week typifies your impulses in these areas. You have a strong work ethic to be productive and accomplish as much as possible in an efficient, effective way. And you will do this with unexpected praise, bonuses and perks. Surprise job opportunities might fall in your lap. Meanwhile, fiery Mars is in a playful part of your chart urging you to do exactly what you want. Romance will be passionate and competitive sports will appeal. Awright!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Throughout the year, different parts of your chart are highlighted as the planets move through them. This week there is a handful of planets in the most fun-loving, playful part of your chart. Therefore, accept invitations to socialize and party. Don’t hesitate to express yourself, especially creatively. Enjoy sports events and fun activities with kids. And do be aware that for all signs, romance is percolating in the background; however, for you, it’s upfront centre stage! In fact, on Saturday, love at first sight, unexpected flirtations, surprise invitations and other exciting diversions will happen. (However, be careful about sports accidents.) Enjoy!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Home, family and your private life continue to be your primary focus at this time. Fortunately, this is also the same area that will give you pleasure and surprising rewards this week. Bonus! Family discussions and home repairs are likely. You might be involved with a parent more than usual. Redecorating projects will excite you making this is a fabulous week to entertain at home! Meanwhile, by the weekend, especially on Saturday, something unusual and surprising might occur. Stock the fridge because it could be a spontaneous get-together or a surprise party. You might make an unusual purchase that pleases you – something artistic or high tech. Real-estate opportunities might also drop in your lap. Stay tuned!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your busy, fast pace continues this week. However, now life is more upbeat and fun-loving because Mercury will join the Sun, Venus and Jupiter, as well as Uranus in the part of your chart associated with everyday activities, schmoozing with relatives, siblings and neighbours plus, finding opportunities to learn, travel and meet new people and hear new ideas. In a nutshell – this is an exciting week! And by the weekend, something unexpected will surprise you. You might meet someone new and unusual. Sudden romance, especially with someone you already know, might catch you off guard. Meanwhile, you’re working hard to earn money because it’s going out as fast as it comes in. This is a great week to sign up for a course or explore learning opportunities.

Spell For Monday – To Be Free of Something Negative

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

To Be Free of Something Negative

Draw an outline of yourself in the soil. Next, over it draw a symbol representing that which you wish to be free of.

Draw this symbol over the image. Gaze at it, see the symbol as part of yourself, as you are now.

Then, with careful strokes, completely erase the symbol with your fingertips. Make sure you don’t damage your original outline, however, if this happens, redraw immediately. Now gaze at the new you, free of the negative aspect and ready to start again with a cleaner slate.

Repeat every day for seven days.

Eight of Wands – Minor Arcana

The Eight of Wands describes eight sticks soaring in the air with dizzying speed. This image shows changes, moves and travels. On the card, the background is very clear, showing that there are very few obstructions in your way and there is a beautiful and peaceful river that brings life to all things which are nearby.

In the movie Ten Commandments, Moses touched his stick into the water to spread the waves. His stick is a symbol of power to initiate events. The stick of Moses evokes the image of those sticks in the Eight of Wands Tarot card. They are the symbol of the beginning of action and the effects as well as consequences of such actions. Before we act, we think, imagine, study, exchange, and delude. This is the place of the element Air which is the sky. We give practical and possible ideas, then turn them into action.

This card also has a different meaning which is the appearance of news or new information. You can see or hear something important. The news may appear as a metaphor, so stay awake and pay attention to everything that happens to you at this time.

This card also implies an end. Sooner or later everything ends. Those eight sticks in this card not only focus on starting the events, but also bringing these events to an end. It seems the sticks in this card are about to fall to the ground. If you see this card in a Tarot spread, this may be the time to stop whatever you are doing. You can celebrate the events that happened, but also prepare to receive new things.

KODA

Grove, convergence, ecosystem, review, crossroads, harmony

Tree: Collection of various trees

Letter: Ch

Koad represents a point on the map of your life and cause to reflect on what got you there as well as where you are headed. Many factors conspired to bring you where you are today. An entire ecosystem exists in and around you that is as unique as a fingerprint. This ecosystem is neither entirely good nor entirely bad, which is why this Ogham and the rest of the Forfedha (Oir, Uilleand, Phagos, and Mor) are too complex to be read as well or ill-dignified. Koad is one particular harmony/dissonance at this point in your life. If your life is going well in some respects, this could mean a feeling of competence and capability or a feeling of love and being loved. If you are in a time of stress, Koad may represent the s**tstorm whirling around you. Or all of the above could be going on at once.
You are here to learn a certain set of unique lessons in this lifetime. There are many roads you can take any given day, and like one of those old Choose Your Own Adventure books, each road has its own outcome. Sometimes two seemingly different roads have the same outcome. Koad indicates a feeling of responsibility and ownership of your decisions, however, other factors you cannot control should be taken into account as well, such as family history, social norms, laws, and the era in which you dwell.

Many people do not realize that orchestral symphonies are major works that are frequently an hour in length. A symphony is an elaborate ABA form (think Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on steroids) with mini-breaks between three sections. If your life is a symphony, imagine Koad as one moment in one measure of a huge programmatic work of music. What harmony have you achieved? Are you in a slow or fast movement?

Hexagram Thirty – Five 35

Chin / Aspiration

The Sun shines down upon the Earth:
Constantly honing and refining his brilliance, the Superior Person is a Godsend to his people.
They repay his benevolence with a herd of horses, and he is granted audience three times in a single day.

Promotion.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

This is a time of reward for good works.
Those you have helped want to show their gratitude.
Benefits come both from on high and from the humble you uplifted.
Accept all gifts graciously, though the reward may not be what you truly need or hoped for.
Some may bestow more than they can afford to give, but you must realize that they need to feel that they have repaid you.

Three of Wands

This is the bridge that reaches the edge of the world. The lower steps below tempt those who are curious and brave to go there and embark on a dangerous journey. It bent across the sky but then did not go much further. She stood on the borderline and hesitated, and wondered where she was going. The dazzling sunlight overhead made her squint, radiating beneath the shimmering bands of light that stretched along the river, reflecting on the hill in the distance below. Like a crystal with endless energy, slowly rising, it brought with itself the eternal light like all the potential she had, waiting for her from deep within, with every breath, every moment that contains the ability that either discourages or encourages us. Be aware of the hidden potential in all things.

She looked at the wands of the travelers who had first arrived. It could also be that from this position they turn away and leave, just like a threat to what happens to the next ones. She hesitated for a moment, did not look down, and then stepped into the indeterminate place. She felt the strong rocks and clay beneath her feet, then realized the bridge was gradually perfected from the steps and dreams of others. She took a breath and then began to take the first step – just like that, step by step, the bridge accordingly grew below her feet.

Through this, the message that Three of Wands wants to send you is to explore, search for new things, discover and expand to new horizons. Let’s broadcast your vision in all situations and clearly show your leadership.

Keywords related to the Three of Wands Shadowscapes Tarot: first reward, employment, professional development, competitiveness, competence, high standards, expertise, skilled, satisfaction at work, hard work, advancement, recognition, certification, progress, confidence, good start.

WUNJO

Joy, Light

This rune is the fruit-bearing branch. Time of travail is gone and to some extent you have found yourself. The necessary change is now behind, and you are free to receive its blessing, either material or emotional or an increased well-being. Wunjo is a rune of restoration of a harmonious combination of limtting the ego with the higher self. Properly seen, everything is a test. Consciously in the present, honest to the others and with confidence in your way, you should know that you cannot fail.

The Rings

Keywords: Love, relationships.

Meanings: The Rings is the rune of love and again, when it is the leading stone, it is a positive answer to your question. It is very much a rune of relationship and can indicate engagement, marriage or a new/renewed relationship. It can also indicate the need for a fresh approach to an existing relationship.

Saille/Suil

Associated with the willow tree, Saille corresponds to letter S. Willow trees are associated with the moon and water. However, the tree used in the ogham alphabet isn’t the famous weeping willow, but the pussy willow.

Since it’s sacred to the moon, it also embodies the association of imagination, intuition, and instinct, as well as flexibility and flow. Also, it’s regarded as sacred to the Welsh goddess Ceridwen who rules over the moon.

Hexagram 61

Chung Fu / Inner Truth

The gentle Wind ripples the Lake’s surface:
The Superior Person finds common ground between points of contention, wearing away rigid perspectives that would lead to fatal error.

Pigs and fishes.
You may cross to the far shore.
Great fortune if you stay on course.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

The subject of this hexagram discovers a key to Tranquility by first gaining insight into his own nature, then turning that vision outward.
By resolving inner conflicts and being at peace with himself, he learns to gain insight into others.
In effect, he enters another, sees with the other’s eyes, listens with the other’s ears, feels with the other’s heart.
He then returns to his own center, with new perspective and understanding.

Two

Harmony is your nickname. You thrive in relationships – with your romantic partner, family, friends, coworkers, or even the salespeople at stores! You talk to everyone, you are down to earth and people love your presence. You are the life of the party! But sometimes, maintaining the peace in a relationship is so important to you that you forget who you are and make sacrifices that aren’t reciprocated. Learn to stand your ground and put your foot down when necessary. In matters of business, 2 is a great number for successful partnerships. If your life path number is 2, or if the digits of a date adds up to the number 2, know that it’s the best energy to enter into business agreements and create projects through teamwork. 2 is a wonderful omen for signing peace agreements between countries, making up for past mistakes between lovers, and to make any past wrongs right.

Ioho

Grace, death, letting go, endings, rest, the beauty of decay

Tree: Yew (Taxus spp.)

Letter: Y

Ioho symbolizes the acceptance of enduring realities and legacies of the past. If you draw Ioho, look for the end of a phase or cycle. Ioho suggests you are handling or will handle the matter at hand with dignity and grace.

Modern culture has spent a great deal of time running away from the ideas of death and decay as natural, welcome processes. As a result, we have a society obsessed with launching our species into space for fear of extinction, a medical industry bent on extending life long after it has ceased to have any quality, and a fixation on youth that motivates the middle aged to undergo brutal, grisly procedures in order to look twenty. When we frame aging (not just of human beings) in a sensible way, we understand that getting old isn’t so terrible. People age and die. Technologies change. Weeks become years. Eras fade away. Letting go is for the best.
