Prayer to Fortuna (text version)
Approach, strong Fortune, with propitious mind
and rich abundance, to my prayer inclined.
Placid, and gentle Hekate, mightly named,
imperial Artemis, born of Pluto famed.
Mankind’s unconquered, endless praise is yours,
sepulchral, widely-wandering power divine!
In you, our various mortal life is found,
and some from you copious wealth abounds.
While others mourn your hand averse to bless,
in all the bitterness of deep distress.
Be present, Goddess, to we who worship you,
and give abundance with benevolent mind.
Goddess of Fate, I call upon thee.
Enter my circle and come to me.
You know every secret and I’m eager to learn,
Clear my paths and let your wheel turn.
Bless my life with good luck and fortune,
Fill me with spiritual and material wealth.
Pluck the vibrating strings of destiny and fate.
Approach, strong Fortune, with propitious mind
and rich abundance, to my prayer inclined.

7 of Swords – Minor Arcana
Bad Feelings; snooping
A man is carrying away seven swords from an open chest just behind him. The lock on the chest is broken, so he is stealing what is not his. On a shelf above the chest, two tiny Fire dragons are screaming in anger. The little dragons try to warn him, but he refuses to listen. The thief has forced open the perilous box of universal, magickal knowledge within his subconscious mind and thinks to steal away with the power (swords) he found within. Only an initiate, who has studied and brought balance to all areas of his life, is given the key to open this perilous chest of wisdom and power. The thief has found a shortcut to gain what he wants without the work or dedication. He believes he is above the Law and will not suffer karmic consequences. However, he is wrong, for the Law will always be balanced, regardless of human desires to the contrary.
Divination Meaning: You are creating trouble through the wrong use of personal power. Failure of a plan may come about because of wrong motives. Do not snoop into the affairs of another; you will get burned. You feel cheated or wronged.

Regret, pride, shame, embarrassment, learning from experience, resolution
Tree: Elder (Sambucus spp.)
Letter: R
Shame isn’t all bad and does not deserve a uniformly awful reputation. Without shame and the fear of being shamed, every human child would be demonically bratty. Shame is a limit that informs us to keep our own ego in check. It is often about considering others. Having shame about one’s own past behavior is motivation to avoid shameful behaviors such as cheating and stealing.
Shame is an emotion that demands confrontation. All too often, people run away from what shames them, attempt to excuse themselves from wrongful or immoral behavior because they’re too cowardly to face what they have done or to admit their responsibility in causing their own misfortunes or the misfortune of others. Ruis indicates a willingness to face one’s own shame and to do with shame what it was meant for, and that is to use shame of the past to build oneself into a better person for the present and future. Ashamed of something you did? How can you make yourself into…
