Pick a Card: The qualities the Universe sees in you; what career would suit you?

Sorry if that seems dark, I’m still working with this cheap smartphone after my Google Pixel’s battery warped. Feel free to zoom in on the crystals, I purposely hid their meanings. I will give you a bit of info about you as a person, and give you a list of the (potential) careers that suit you. Of course, there could be more careers as along as it fits the theme of your personality/characteristics/skills.

Use your intuition to pick your pile(s), and then scroll down!

PILE 1

These certainly synchronized well without trying, and although I’m not counting all the BTS “Be” photocards, I did actually shuffle them anyway when I used them to cover up your crystal meaning; so I find it very interesting and helpful to see that J-Hope fell out for you.

As a person, I would sense that you’re someone who’s been through pain, but also healed or is currently on that journey toward healing. And, you might say, well that’s vague and everyone goes through that; however, 1: not everyone chooses to heal 2. not everyone chooses to heal and then help, some people continue the cycle of abuse/pain inflicted onto them 3. this is the kind of healing/pain that results in a life purpose in which some function or medium, action, or work that revolves around helping others. Not just being kind to others out of compassion and empathy, though that’s probably a given, I mean, your profession will revolve around this desire to heal, help, teach.

I feel like “release”, “pain”, “heal” are the keywords that would surround any career you choose, whether it’s to heal yourself, others, or both.

There’s a lot of greens here, with some red, purple, indigo: Heart, root, crown, third-eye chakra. Your intuition is strong, your empathy and compassion are strong, root would indicate the healing process and grounding through that or through some type of activity, crown is that spiritual/greater purpose aspect.

Which also fits in with this Self oracle; this card reads like the idea of the Higher Self, except it’s still referring to this incarnation’s soul, accepting of all parts, separate from the ego, understanding its place in the universe, so there would have to be some type of spiritual awakening that’s occurred for you or will. There’s a sense of awareness about how spiritual things work, which may also be an element in your ability and even DESIRE to do healing work.

For you, I feel you would be excellent in any career involving helping, healing, teaching, opening up people’s minds/hearts to something greater than themselves, to also assist them in getting on their life purpose path.

Careers: Spiritual healer (tarot, reiki, mediumship, etc...); teacher/professor; therapist;psychologist/psychiatrist; doctor/nurse/physical therapist; special needs; social worker; counselor; any type of rehabilitation; acupuncture; writer; journalist; comedian; religious positions; publishing; podcasts; or any other career in which “storytelling” is used to heal or heal yourself by expressing your emotions/thoughts, like screenplays, music, poetry, artist, designer, etc...

There’s definitely a strong focus here on using “words” to heal, so it’s definitely a call to all the artists out there or anyone who can weave writing/storytelling into their healing arts. Doctors may heal, but storytelling isn’t really part of that, so I definitely sense this is more toward people who feel comfortable using words/stories to express a healing element. Pictures count as words, too. Any type of physical manifestation of a feeling or vision is a reflection of thoughts.

There could even be opportunities for a career as a lawyer, judge, or even some type of other criminal/law component-job. Politics is also possible.

But, these are only if you have the intention of helping/healing/making a positive change in the community/world.

Photography, modeling... I see that in “the self” card... there’s a sense of taking people who are “fragmented” and putting them back together again.

Really a career in which your intentions are coming from your heart in a way that there’s a conscious understanding that we (the collective) are connected and with that mindset, there’s a call to do good because that’s why we’re here.

My point is there’s something bigger drawing you/pushing you toward a healing career. It’s more than just “that sounds fun” or “my parents would like me to become that.” Several figures in these cards are touching their heart space and also there’s books, letters, etc... You get the idea.

I also feel like you’re not a sullen person in the sense that you hold a lot of anger or resentment, that you may even on the surface appear jolly, happy, have a good sense of humor and in private perhaps you are more quiet, reflective.

But, very much so I do also see a career in which interacting with others, especially one-on-one literally or as in one-on-one: your book and the reader; your song and the listener; your food and the diner, etc...

PILE 2

Sadly, I wrote out a very long and thorough description for Pile 2, but it got eaten by Tumblr. Maybe that’s part of the message, though, as this was the only Pile where - besides the careers - there was a very extensive personal message for you. I’ll try to bring back as much detail as the first time, if I can remember.

Here are some common themes for this pile: There is the sense that you have warrior energy but at the same time, you’ve built armor around yourself. To be honest, the fact you have Jimin as your photocard that fell out is really what shaped my opinion of the pile (no need to ask why, just trust me, and I like Jimin very much). The Destroyer card, which... has a couple of meanings. It can be about self-sabotage and it’s also about using objects, success, money, accomplishments as a symbol of recognition or success - not to realize that material things are temporary and don’t necessarily hold that type of value.

I do think this is a pile that weighs success against such things or has in the past. The destroyer reminded me of the wolf from Neverending story. It is the power behind the “Nothing” which tries to, basically, destroy that universe/world.

When I think about this, i see it as if... say some type of wound or incident happened when you were younger and it left a type of metaphorical scar on your soul, that scar kind of necrofied (that’s a word right) and turned into a black marble, and then all of this scar tissue formed around it. And that feels like a metaphor for all the armor imagery I’m seeing in these cards. This is something that has influenced your attitude in a lot of ways, particularly about yourself. I sense some issues with insecurity and comparing yourself to others, in terms of success or what you have, looks - but all of this comparison stems from that insecurity, lack of self-love. I’m not saying you aren’t confident, in fact I feel like this is the energy of an ambitious boss, but that’s tied into a desire to prove yourself, which, as I said, comes from this black marble wound you picked up somewhere. In fact, if it’s not this lifetime I was wondering if it’s something passed on from a previous lifetime(s), because it’s a very DEEP wound and I do sense that it’s... so much more than like - feeling neglected or abandoned as a kid or being bullied. It feels spiritually deeper and engrained.

Anyway, that’s what’s pushed you in the direction of wanting to achieve a certain lifestyle that reflects your success, your worth, your value, etc...

That type of ambition (when I first wrote your description) made me feel you’d be excellent in business, jobs where there’s some type of competition that keeps you excited and (not bored), that may change up frequently, where there’s a clear way of climbing the career ladder. I see you as potential CEOs, leaders of startups, PR moguls, social media masters. People who want a job in which they have some sense of power and authority. Not to do wicked things (although it’s possible you could be slightly overbearing, perhaps this is a pile for a lot of fire signs as it has that type of creative, fiery, independent, thirsty energy).

You’d be someone quite driven, so any field where you can be badass or have people perceive that you are. I don’t see this as being strictly - like... a practical job, no regular 9 to 5 stuff, not stuck in a boxy office. I see offices with views, in a cool building, working in modern offices if not for yourself, starting your own creative business ventures or fresh ventures with a lot of risk, exciting travel jobs. You could be flight attendants. I mean it does have the energy of superstar actors, singers, musicians.... there’s that Leo feeling of someone who wants attention and has this hungry ambition where they’d probably do a fair amount to be on top - just keep in mind that things come and go, that things aren’t always permanent and that things don’t determine your true value. What does - in theory - is who you are as a person, how you feel about yourself, are you doing it for you or the approval of others. And I’m not shaming, that’s quite normal, but that’s really a drive of the ego and it’s okay to think and reflect on why it is you feel so motivated to prove yourself when you don’t have to prove anything to anyone except maybe yourself.

So, again - apply that to jobs where you can show off. I do see you as not faking this. You’re very capable as like... project managers, you’d make good agents for people, real estate agents, radio personalities, the kind of people who drive to LA in a car with nothing to become an actor or something, you could be a fancy concierge in a well known hotel in Paris... bc you attach “prestige” to your job title.

You get the idea... on the other hand since it seems I’ve been brow-beating you over materialism and attachment to things and titles - there’s also a sense that you want to protect those who cannot protect themselves. I see this in the nature card. Not to get all therapist on you, but perhaps bc you couldn’t protect yourself or just bc it’s right, there’s a sense of wanting to protect the “weak.” I’m not saying you’re a super social justice warrior though you may be, in fact I sense more of a disdain for people in general, so this is only about 1. young children 2. animals 3. the planet. You’re not looking out for the average person, just those that can’t defend themselves, so you may also be a leader in anything to do with protecting the environment, this could include being like a vegan chef or working for green peace, working as a diplomat, being a caretaker of young children or the infirm, it is possible you could be a nurse (specifically one who treats the old and young), or a lawyer - like environmental lawyer or one of those lawyers who would defend the immigrant children who got separated from their parents after crossing from Mexico to the US... you know there’s passion and ambition BUT you have a soft spot when people are being picked on. I mean you may pick on average people bc ur like bro we’re equal, i’ll take you on - but kids and animals, even if you don’t LIKE kids, you wouldn’t stand for someone to mistreat them.

And for some of you you may have already been through this process of removing self sabotaging behavior or talk where you told yourself you weren’t good enough, etc... but it was probably part of your cycle. I feel like the destroyer was that sense of self-sabotage and darkness within you that drives you forward. 7 of swords has that “bitter” feeling to it here and also looks like, well, a stegosaurus, lol, like another instance of you surrounding yourself with these blades so no one will get near you and you’re still carrying them and the root is something “hidden.” But fool and child nature show that you aren’t a bad person, that you’re just reacting to some wound where you felt left behind or neglected or unappreciated. And that left this destroyer black hole, but the crystal wants you to learn self love, to treasure that more than success and such. I mean, I want you to BE successful, and you will be bc you’re capable and brave and ambitious and smart and clever and organized BUT I don’t want you to feel you have to prove yourself through high salaries and nice condos and the best wines and designer clothes - like treat yourself as you deserve it but status isn’t indicative of worth... you’re great as you are, nothing to prove. Love yourself.

Pile 3

On the one hand, I think pile three could have careers in any kind of mystical realm, if there’s also an aspect of the job where you’re doing, say, tarot out on the open via blog, youtube, etsy. There are plenty of cards to suggest talents in a spiritual job with agape, shaman, and magician. But with the crystal card and networker (and magician again), I also think there is an online aspect. All those cards are about communication, communication networks, etc...

By that default, this is a pile where you’d excel in the communication fields: publishing, radio broadcast, marketing, journalism, PR. Shamans can also be doctors, politicians, etc... (see pile 1). But this pile doesn’t necessarily have a “healer” aspect to it. This is like a. mystical skills 2. networking skills 3. communication skills. You don’t have to have spiritual skills, though. This is definitely not a tarot reader pile only, I don’t even feel that’s an aspect of it other than by default. This is more “communications” jobs.

Also, singer pops out. Poet. But, again, this is if you actually share your music to an online community or go to physical locations and share it. I also don’t feel this is a behind the scenes working in the music industry either.

What I see in the Shaman card, too, is a sense of learning, a sense of understanding your own darkness, a sense of being some sort of spiritual conduit between heaven and earth. We could say some artistic talents are just divine given, but unlike Pile 1, it’s not about healing, it’s about... purpose?

Agape is interesting because it’s... finding wonder in something physical... but it’s a divine wonder. If you were to see the grand canyon or some other really amazing physical/earth... landscape... and in that moment you feel this sort of divine wonder and humility. You might also really like Yuri on Ice xD

The Jenna card reminds me a bit of a nun, too. So there are several... spiritual but also religious themes within these cards... there’s also a repeating theme about surrender and moving on, letting go.

Besides all communication jobs and online spiritual gigs, I see things like poet, singer, actor, specifically if any of you are studying opera. I see spiritual or religious leaders. I actually have a friend who worked in intense data programming whatever on the East Coast and such and such happened, she became a nun and moved to Scotland or something.

I also see a teacher, but it would be religion, philosophy, history. Librarian. Someone who does research on said topics. Create documentaries, especially about nature or the human story, sociology. There’s also a sense of action. Like, you do something, you create something. It’s not sitting at a desk or being told what to do, I don’t feel this is any kind of service work.

I guess what I see it as is someone who “spreads a gospel.” And you can say gospel is anything that feels like a “truth.” And that truth is also spread through a “large” community or system via you or what you do.

Documentary work feels right on the money, though. But like I said, it would have to be about anything that brings a sense of wonder. I feel like you’re more comfortable as an observer, behind a camera. I guess in that way you’re not really a youtube tarot reader... there’s humility to this pile, it’s not a show off pile. If you are in the spotlight it’s... not about you. I think it’ll be a job where you see or display something to do with the bigger picture. The bigger world. And there’s a sense of objectivity to it instead of trying to push a particular narrative, which is why nature documentaries or photography, still paintings, come to mind.

Poems and songs because they’re very short and capture a moment or single feeling... I included the cards that hid the crystal meaning and so far they’ve actually been spot on. I shuffled the bts photocards like I would oracles, and JK is actually someone who’s done documentary/video/photography work, he also draws, writes, sings. But he’s an introvert and he said once about filmwork that he liked doing videos bc a photo sometimes needs a description but a film, people get what you’re trying to say (in theory). He’s a Virgo by the way, with a Libra venus and a leo/virgo cusped moon, I think. And in the Magician card, it’s ruled by Mercury (which rules Gemini/virgo) The other card is a swords/air sign. My point being that if you need to know further if this is your pile, this is an earth-air pile. Air is about communication, earth is about... the earth, haha, grounding. So communication plus earth equals... nature documentaries.

There’s nature imagery, there’s a sense of stillness, self discovery, spiritual learning, humility, and... wonder. Also, moving forward, letting go.

In terms of working for others alone, I’m drawn more toward alone or in your job working for others you have a lot of independence to do your thing.

Well, you get the idea, and let me look for any personal messages that seem important, as well. Jenna’s face reminds me of Billie Eilish. Oh, I also wanted to say I thought you might be a bit of a job nomad. You may go through several jobs before you find the ideal one or perhaps you simply move around bc you do freelance videography or whatever form of... work.

I’m mostly seeing emphasis on the throat chakra and using it in your career, how your throat chakra has to do with your alignment/purpose. Like I said, you tend to be a close observer of people or the things around you, more so than the average person. You probably like to people watch or go outside and watch the trees or clouds or sky, you have a fascination with nature or natural monuments. I want to say you may like to wear white, but I think the white outfits in two of these cards is more about... the “purity” tied to these moments of wonder/inspiration. I think in terms of “moving on” from anything, that nature is a healer for you. You’re wise, you have the ability to teach but also be a student.

I’m suddenly getting Death vibes so perhaps some of you had a near death experience or a very striking spiritual transformation. Or some experience that kind of “spooked” you.

And oh also possibly an interest in space, astronomy, astrology as that would also fall under a natural phenomenon that induces wonder. But I also see the sea/ocean, as well. Marine biology, diving, astronomer, astronaut, mountain climber, haha. The agape card makes me think of something jungkook mentioned recently about how he relaxes in a dark room, a single candle on, listening to music, and that’s also a bit of a vibe for this pile. You probably meditate, do yoga, etc... and you can “purify” your soul through throat chakra activities... and... yeah. That felt repetitive, but... there are probably a lot of jobs I don’t know about that encompass this sort of feeling, so I wanted to be over-thorough. Hopefully Tumblr won’t delete this like it did Pile 2 when I went to save draft!

---

PILE 4

Not that poet hasn’t slid in to a couple other piles as an option, but this one clearly speaks it. There are other piles that mention a job centered around the throat chakra or communication, but this pile seems very specific.

I happened to shuffle all the bts photocards I was just using to cover up the crystal meanings, and you got RM, who is the rapper of the group. His style of writing is very poetic; outside of BTS, he has this album called Mono, and it is... it has the most incredible atmosphere to it that it feels like poetry rap. That’s how he writes anyway, he takes a very philosophical but artistic approach, plays with words and metaphors and language, and I see that here with the page of swords and hermit. There’s a sense of studying language in those two cards, so someone who... is an interpreter, who speaks multiple languages and uses that in their job, speech therapist, studies the... science behind words, etymology? Isn’t that what it is? Studies the written word, such as... philosophy... or would teach English. Also ironic I said translator and RM is the one who translates for BTS when they do English interviews. The poet looks like they’re singing, too, but I feel more that rather than say “singer” this pile is connected to... language, writing, words, studying them or there’s an intellectual pursuit around language. Archivist, researcher, librarian. Someone who’d work at the Smithsonian and could decipher Egyptian or Sumerian, etc... or archaeologist even. Or working with religious or spiritual texts. Working in a museum and archiving... I think even coding could fall under this, using coding to create things, studying coding or web programming, etc... I guess it could be any job in which there’s knowledge and communication involved. More on the technical side. Engineer even, but again that’s like using the language of “math” to create.

I went to look up the flame oracle and the first line is “In sanskrit...” so again haha another tie to language. It also says at the end “it is likely that The Poet, The Mystic, or The Shaman” would call to you with the language of the flame. so again, “language”, “poet”. Shaman is a card that showed up in pile 3 so you could always check that out and I was almost going to say I feel something tied to pile 3 but that’s only bc pile 3 was the throat chakra jobs. But the flame card reminds me of ace of wands, it’s about inner vitality... however I felt through this description of the card that there was another message about having a passion for language, history, and ancient civilizations, their knowledge.

And Fairy Stone is a sacred stone found in canada, sacred to the native peoples who live there, so again, an appreciation for culture, history, knowledge, what’s “sacred” to a group of people, etc... and there’s also elements of Magician vibe to it, as well, with the sense of manifesting success. The aspect of Geneva we’d be drawn to is probably the “knowing” but I also feel ambition, too. Ambition fits with the flame card, the flames around page of swords, flame on the hermit’s staff. But... that makes me think of that greek story or whatever about when the gods gave humans fire... and it was like... giving them knowledge. I’m sensing a very specific, repeating pattern here. I suppose you could also make a great tour guide of these types of places.

Pretty sure you get the idea of what the job could involve whether I named it specifically or not.

And as a personal message, what do I see - well you’d have to be extremely intelligent, as in book smart, read a lot, have a passion for ancient civilizations or culture, societies, architecture, old writings, etc... you might have a fascination with language. You might do a lot of writing yourself, if not songs or poetry or fiction, then keeping a journal or coding. You might do a lot of deep thinking in general, be a passionate communicator, especially about topics you’re very interested in... you might already collect... specific objects. They don’t have to be crystals or stones or historical stuff, but maybe. However, it reminds me that RM collects bonzai plants and these ... robot figure things. So, yeah I feel you may have collections of specific things. Maybe you even collect books or a specific author’s books, might have a library at home or at least a decent bookshelf, might be a bit on the nerdy side, might think a lot like an earth sign, maybe sometimes... not rigid per se but almost like... structure to thoughts even if they’re artistic. You might be clumsy, you might sometimes lack common sense or like a lower social IQ... as in occasionally socially awkward. That’s me thinking of RM, because I do feel there’s fire energy even if it’s not prominent in your chart, there’s passion... enthusiasm... confidence, ambition.

But I think that passion would be directed at your hobbies/interests/job.

I think you’re probably quick-witted, though. Maybe even sarcastic.

I also want to say diplomat bc I see with the poet speaking there’s the doves, so it’s like someone who can speak and with their words create peace, so orator, politician, motivational speaker. You might be known for having eyes that stand out or an intense stare. You may have an interest in... the fantasy genre or have an interest in art, able to see stories through works of art or architecture. You’d enjoy going to a big city and visiting all the art museums.

I don’t see any advice or warnings or... I think that about wraps it up, Pile 4.

Whoa, I was like a cycle early on celebrating the lunar new year! I’ve been a month into the future for a week now. My bad! I apologize for any confusion.

I was thinking that the soul's law of attraction is probably pretty unstoppable even concerning partners, so like, if someone didn't love you back then it's not some mistake or human misunderstanding that you or they need to fix.

To find one's soulmate looks something like 2 souls flying towards each other from opposite ends of the galaxy to join their physical selves together in a collision force so brutal you're stuck like that and if that's not what yours looks like then maybe that ain't your soulmate?

All the men going to jail for their poop smearing Capitol rioting have online dating profiles and that’s reason no. 2 I do not date online! Reason no. 1 is ain’t nobody cute on there.

Why do people believe the lies they’re fed? Because those lies are designed to be more palatable than reality. Lies offer a quick easy patch, but what you’ve gotta ask yourself is are those lies actually designed to support the flow of all things into your life?

“What has shaken the U.S. population so badly, this assault on the Capitol yesterday, is really nothing by comparison to what U.S. operations have done in Latin America, in Asia, in Africa, in the Middle East, to other democratic movements and elected governments over the years.”

🔮? :o i love tarot sm...

TAROT READING WITH LADY J🔮

not accepting

1. THE PRESENT MOMENT / THE PRIMARY CONCERN

Card: King of Swords - Reversed

Summary: Wisdom and Integrity

Meaning: The King of Swords has reached the height of his professional life. A powerful person of esteem, he has honed his ability to control his mind and holds all people to the highest of ideals. His brilliant intellect generates endless energy while his reputation for fairness earns him the trust of others, especially when they are faced with difficult decisions. Though viewed as cold by some of his closest relations, his ability to forecast results and consequences far into the future makes him an indispensable ally. if you’re open to a fair decision ( even if it’s not in your favor ), his counsel will be essential.

Position Meaning: Selfishness, oppression, threat, callousness, stubbornness, scheming

2. THE CAUSE OF THE CHALLENGE AFFECTING CARD 1. A BLOCK.

Card: Temperance XIV - Reversed

Summary: Listening Within

Meaning: We often look at options from an either or perspective, but Temperance invites us to consider that all things are possible, even when they appear to be at odds. Life is not static and neither are our needs – they vary across a lifetime and across each situation. Through listening and awareness, the universe reveals what your soul truly needs, not just what your ego wants. It’s not as complicated as you make it. If you can put your perceptions and impatience aside, you create space for alchemy.

Position Meaning: Confusion, disharmony, polarity, excessive caution, competing interests, forced decisions

3. SUBCONSCIOUS INFLUENCES. UNKNOWN INFORMATION. THE DISTANT PAST.

Card: Four of Swords - Upright

Summary: A Quiet Space

Meaning: The Four of Swords is often known as the meditation card. It indicates that you have ( or have just gotten over ) a difficult time and you need to rest, reflect and reconnect with yourself. When we are troubled, our minds play tricks on us, imagining hopeful escapes or tragic demises. Quieting your mind is an act of humility which allows you to enlist divine intelligence - your true voice. It won’t make the problem go away but in the space of stillness, you can bring fresh perspective and invite new ideas to appear.

Position Meaning: An increase in stress, harmful persistence, busyness and activity.

4. THE RECENT PAST. A SITUATION THAT HAS COME TO A CONCLUSION.

Card: Four of Cups - Upright

Summary: Blind Disillusion

Meaning: A man slumps in a corner, brooding over his current situation. What once has satisfied him now brings him boredom and discontent. He wavers between self reflection and disillusionment but is dangerously close to melancholy. As he stews in his emotions, his ability to see another option is clouded. If he can shake the self pity, he will remember he has options and the bounty around him will start to become obvious again. When the Four of Cups appears in your reading, quit focusing on the empty cups. Possibility is closer then you think.

Position Meaning: Disillusionment, self-reflection, listlessness, ennui, emotionally stranded, stagnation, imaginary problems

5. THE PRESENT. CONSCIOUS BELIEFS. CURRENT EVENTS.

Card: Ace of Swords - Upright

Summary: Powerful Clarity

Meaning: As the root of the swords, the Ace brings a great deal of raw power and energy. A sword cuts through the web of scaffolding, holding up all the cloudy pieces of our identity: perceptions, conversations, facts, dreams and ideas. When the Ace of Swords appears in a reading, it means that a rare opportunity for clarity is near. It will cut through these subjective realities, revealing a truth, an insight or a new approach for which you have been waiting. Pay close attention to your words and thoughts. Knowledge does give you power, but without a little reflection, it can quickly turn into delusion.

Position Meaning: Mental clarity, a great force at work, a fresh approach, long-term success, determination, ambition

6. THE NEAR FUTURE. A NEW PERSON OR EVENT. A SHIFT IN ENERGY.

Card: The Fountain - Reversed

Summary: Be

Meaning: The Fountain exists outside and beyond the cycles of birth, death, time and form. It is the nameless, changeless source of which everything is a part. It is the waking from the dream of separateness and identity, and the recognition of one’s Self as not only connected to all things, but all things — divine nature. When The Fountain appears in your reading, relinquish all illusion of control, and remain quiet. It invites you to observe, master less, and to just be — effortless and indistinguishable from life. You are the voice and the breath of universes.

Position Meaning: Identification with a role or personality, fear ( of being alone ), mind-obsessed, separation from source, resistance to ( or denial of ) reality

7. YOUR POWER ( OR LACK OF POWER ) IN THE MOMENT. HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF IN THE SITUATION.

Card: Nine of Swords - Upright

Summary: Imagined Misery

Meaning: A man wakes from a nightmare, still caught in the shadows of anxiety. His fears, concerns, and regrets point sharply at him like sinister foes. His thoughts have piled up in his sleep, steeped in worry and doubt, creating a very intimate brand of misery. He can feel the darkness closing in. The Nine of Swords challenges you to sift reality out from the imaginary. Irrational thinking, like dreams, can become cyclical. Deal with the facts and ground yourself in the rational – your peace of mind depends on it.

Position Meaning: Imagined or inflated concerns, worry and anxiety, muddled thoughts, being overwhelmed, a crippling cycle, irrational suffering, sleeping difficulties

8. THE EFFECTS OF PEOPLE AROUND YOU. HOW OTHER PEOPLE SEE YOU IN THE SITUATION.

Card: The Moon XVIII - Reversed

Summary: Surrender to Darkness

Meaning: A vast ocean of mystery, danger, And illusion stretches out and swells over a pier. above and below, shadows seem to wait and watch. The Moon is the world of the unconscious and It can be both frightening and disorienting. There is nowhere to anchor and everything feels confusing and deceptive, though slightly seductive and familiar. Even time seems to be disappearing, but there is an urgency for you to move or risk being lost here forever. It’s not too late to turn back, but if you truly want freedom, you will brave the current and surrender to the waves of cosmic intuition.

Position Meaning: Instability, impatience, an unwillingness to be truthful, barren stillness, misplaced fantasy

9. YOUR HOPES OR FEARS.

Card: Strength XI - Upright

Summary: Passion Tamed

All humans have both peaceful and fiery energies as part of their design. Left to their own nature, the fiercer qualities can get away from us, creating imbalance in our lives. The Strength card shows a woman caressing a lion – her savage side. She is not interested in ridding herself of it, but rather in turning its gaze, gently and with generosity, towards useful partnership. Combined with her peaceful energies ( and mastered by her courage and inner strength ) the fiery energies come to her assistance, fueling and propelling her objectives to unexpected heights.

Position Meaning: Power through honoring all facets of the self, courage, self-discipline, respect, harnessed energy, transcendence, determination

10. THE MOST LIKELY OUTCOME.

Card: The Hanged Man XII - Upright

Summary: Surrender to Self

Meaning: A pivotal card in the Major Arcana, the Hanged Man has willingly stripped and suspended himself upside down, allowing his view of the world to alter completely. In this spiritual doorway, he relinquishes his ego and mind and experiences a timeless moment glimmer of clarity and enlightenment: his true nature. Calm rests on his face as he merges with the divine, peace that comes from surrender and trust. The realizations he acquires here will stay with him forever and cannot be unlearned.

Position Meaning: A change in perspective, a committed time of self-examination, sacrifice rewarded by clarity, renouncing old ways of being, surrender of the “the known”, a search for Truth

BONUS CARD: THE CARD THAT PLAYS A ROLE IN THE ENTIRE SITUATION.

Card: The Lovers VI - Upright

Summary: Choosing Love

Meaning: We all have unexplainable moments of knowing or recognizing our Selves in a person or a place intuitively. These moments of love are spiritual, like reuniting with a cosmic twin. They can restore balance and make us feel very happy. Unlike the title might suggest, The Lovers card is not primarily about passion or romance. When these moments of love occur, they are about a choice: follow your head or follow your heart. Love is not always convenient, easy, or painless, but the possibilities that arise from saying “yes” can bring lifelong joy in many areas. Follow your heart and choose love.

Position Meaning: A choice, transformation, love, fulfillment of desires, a magical union, trust in one’s heart, harmony

Card: Judgement XX - Upright

Summary: Reconciliation

Meaning: Coming to terms with our past changes us and fosters healing. It renews our ability to love purely, flow freely and transcend our struggles. Judgment is a voice calling from deep with you — a distant, yet familiar, invitation. It requires intention and a significant act of bravery: uncovering and arousing the enshrouded memories of your past. If you accept the invitation, they will rise up fully exposed. Now is your best opportunity to face them, forgive them, and move on once and for all.

Position Meaning: Forgiveness, rejuvenation and healing, an acknowledgement and release of the past, a definitive decision, an altered view, an invitation from within, new purpose.

LADY J READING:

This current reading seems to tell me that there is a bit of conflict in your life at the moment with someone / something in particular. There might have been a sense of you feeling oppressed lately, perhaps by people that have treated you badly, either by their betraying you in some way or them not giving you a space to discuss your concerns to the point that you feel as though you’re on your own with no one to turn to. The path of this reading seems to indicate that all cards will revolve around this particular conflict.

The root cause of it appears to be a sense of polarity that is keeping you at odds with whoever else is involved. I would say you seem to want one thing in particular, while the other party has goals for something wildly different, and that is causing discordance in your heart and mind. You’re not sure what to make of it and you’re trying to be wary, but it’s definitely pushing you into a position you don’t want to be in and no matter how much you try to think it over and figure things out, it doesn’t appear to be helping. It’s causing you a great deal of stress in the background, and finding a way to quiet your mind is next to impossible at the moment. The more you think about it, the more it hurts your head. But you can’t help it, nor is the increase in activity / responsibly around you helping either. You have no time to yourself to breathe, there’s just too much happening that you can’t quite get a grip on, and it’s overwhelming in its entirety.

The Four of Cups is your most recent past, which hints at the fact that perhaps you’ve been in a bad state of mind until just recently. There was a great deal of heaviness in your heart, in your mind. You were constantly tired and exhausted and couldn’t quite see the point to anything, a downward spiral, so to speak; and with no strength nor will to break out of it. In that state, perhaps you were even imagining problems that weren’t actually there, further pummeling your peace of mind into the ground. But something has changed most recently that has brought you out of that troubled state. Clarity in a way, it seems, the dawning of a much needed epiphany that has snapped you out of your despair. The imagined concepts that have held you back in the past have shattered, whilst a new realization has prompted and fueled your drive and desire to change things. It’s brought you back to life in a way that indicates you’ve figured out what it is you really want, and you’ve figured out a new approach, a new means of how to reach it. Your mind is centered, and you’re ready.

However, the future appears as a reversed Fountain card, which shows that perhaps you are too centered on achieving your goals that you’re going about it too intensely. The Fountain card at its core encourages one to let things flow, let life bring you where it should and do not control that which is beyond our means. However, the one drawn is reversed, which shows that you may be so focused on the possibility success that if - knock on wood - a failure does occur, you seem likely as though you would refuse to accept it, as distraught and disappointed as you’d be after all you’d done to guarantee that things would work out. There is a lot of fear associated with this, perhaps because failure would result in the potential of solitude on your part ( though that is a wild guess ). Regardless, the Fountain card wishes to advise you to take a step back and allow for the possibility that anything is possible - success, and failure. Attempting to control things as much as you would like to will bring you nowhere. Sometimes, it’s important to try your best, and in the end, if things don’t work out, accept it for what it is and allow yourself to just Be. If it’s meant for you, it will happen - you can’t force it, ever.

The way you see yourself at the moment seems to state that you’re in a bit of a depressed, somewhat anxious state right now, despite your determined intentions to achieve your goals. Your mind seems to be feeding your fears with a plethora of worst case scenarios, the potential of your plans falling through causing some severe anxiety that leaves you with absolutely zero peace of mind. It can’t stop, won’t stop. It’s too much, it’s overwhelming, a lot of your fears seem to be even not real. I wouldn’t say you’re overreacting, but I would say that these imagined fears are taking a lot out of you and only screwing things up even more. It’s turning into something of an emotional bomb where if it explodes, will leave absolute destruction in its aftermath. This card encourages you to please try to take a step back to breathe and try not to draw back into that cyclical state of despair. It only makes things worse. Please be kinder to yourself and try your best to calm your mind. That is the most important thin more then anything. It will help you, I promise.

In connection to the Fountain card is the Moon card, which shows that other people seem to think you’re deluding yourself a bit :c You have your goals and you have the drive to achieve them, but the people around you feel that your goals are perhaps not quite realistic enough and you’re running from the truth. They seem to think you are impatient, a little bit unstable, and forcing the situation too much to be what you want it to be, even though it couldn’t be farther from the truth. I would imagine that the combination of all your most intense hopes and fears getting shoved into one bucket ( your mind ) is rapidly creating an illusion that is a little too ‘perfect’ to be real. It’s intense, and it’s severe, and you’re perhaps not taking the reality of certain things into consideration. The Moon invites you to stop running, look back over what the Truth is, and listen to what it says. No one can force you to do this, but if you wish to gain genuine knowledge that will benefit you, you will achieve it by allowing the Moon to illuminate the entire picture and showcase it for what it is - rather then leaving it all shrouded in mystery and imagination.

Your hopes are showcased through the Strength card, which indicates that you’re hoping that by powering through as you have, being determined as you have - you will achieve your goals. You are trying to harness the fierceness that lays within you to achieve what you utmost desire. However, your most likely outcome, despite all of that – seems to be that you will finally come to terms with the Truth. The Hanged Man shows that you will have an epiphany of sorts, sooner rather then later. You will come to consider another perspective, you’ll be able to take a step back and look at things from another point of view; sacrificing your intense need for success so that you can allow room for clarity. It won’t be what you’re used to, and maybe not even something you’ll initially like as you’ve been fighting against it all this while. But it is what is needed - if only so that you are not shattered by the potential of the end results. You will achieve happiness eventually, but another kind that is different from what you currently want. You just need to be open to the possibility of it.

The Bonus Cards that showed up in your reading are two: The Lovers and Judgement. These cards play an active role in the entire situation, and starting with the Lovers, it appears to be that the card is advising you that in all things to do with this situation, please always attempt to follow your heart. Follow your intuition, follow that which gives you peace. It feels like there’s a lot of high emotion running amok in terms of this conflict at the moment that your heart feels at war with your head. I think in terms of guidance, it only asks of you to stop thinking too much. Do what feels right for you, it will help calm the flurry of overwhelming emotions that trouble you so much. You need to trust yourself. Though it might not feel like the most convenient option at first, nor the best path to take in any sense of the word, it seems as though it may be for the best in the long run. Nothing best promotes inner harmony like listening to your own instincts and doing what is best for your inner peace, responsibility be damned. You have the choice – choose what feels best for You.

Judgement as the final card invites you to do but just one thing: come to terms with your reality, and accept the truth when it comes. A lot of the conflict appears to come from emotions that were not reconciled in the past, and it requests that you put those old feelings to rest. You have yet to heal, and your holding tight to those old struggles is what clouds your judgement on how you are to proceed today. Let them go, and perhaps it will leave space for clarity to take place. Forgiveness is healing, forgiveness will help you make the decisions you need based on what is currently set before you, not on what has formerly concluded. It will give you the facts that you need so you know how best to proceed. It will invite you to not only look at things differently, but also change your current purpose; for the better. It will help promote inner piece for you, but only if you Let It.

The Anima Mundi Tarot

Hey everyone, I have been very busy getting back to work, but I want to give you a quick look at the Anima Mundi deck by Megan Wyreweden.

The "Anima Mundi" is a concept often referred to in philosophic circles and literally translates as "World-soul" or "Soul of the Universe" - that very force that connects all living beings, the world seen as One Entity, alive and conscious, in wich all other entities are contained and connected. A beautiful thought, and beautifully represented here in this deck filled with plants, animals and natural phenomenons.

Everything about this deck screams quality. I am in love with the cardstock - not too thick so easy to shuffle and such a lovely mat linnen finish! The gilded edging just completes the look beautifully. The reversible backs have a nice moon-and-stars design within a dark brown frame set with a faint flower pattern. The box and little guide booklet are also very nicely made.

The thing that was holding me back from purchasing this deck was the not-quite-but-almost pip-style Minor Arcana. Some cards like the 3 or the 10 of Swords are still easily readable. But others, like the 7 of Wands or 4 of Pentacles, might be harder to interpret for beginners - even though they are still beautifully illustrated. I can't help but feel a little disappointed because I imagine how perfect this deck could be with a fully worked out set of Minors. Having said that, this IS a gorgeous Tarot deck and I am glad I went ahead and bought it.

But lets look at the Major Arcana first: A well chosen selection of plantlife, animals and forces of nature - Homo Sapiens Sapiens being chosen to represent the Devil card makes perfect sense to me, considering the fact that the concept of Good and Evil was a human invention. I also do not believe any other species struggles with the same issues of addiction or unhealthy relationships as we do...

I like the choice of the Hercules Beetle for Strength and the Octopus for the Hermit - not the obvious choices of Lion and Turtle! And the snake shedding it’s skin puts a nice accent on the transformative aspect of Death...

And now for the Minor Arcana, which by the order of the Guidebook, puts the Earthly suit of Pentacles first (well chosen for this particular deck I feel!), followed by Swords, Wands and Cups.

My deck arrived pre-shuffled, with some cards reversed. I am not sure if this is the case with all these decks? If someone else has purchased one, please let me know! I quite liked this, the deck felt ready to get to work! And when I asked her to describe herself to me, she replied with The High Priestess and the 8 of Pentacles - so a good mixture of intuition and hard work, knowledgeable but always seeking to hone and improve her skills. I can work with that...

As it says in the lid of the box: May the Spirit of the Earth guide your way! Xxx

Best Tarot Decks for beginners

Hello everyone and welcome back!

Today I want to help everyone who is interested in tarot divination, but who doesn’t know which deck is better to buy.

I will describe and introduce you my top 3 decks for absolute beginners and I’ll explain you why I have chosen them.

1) Doreen Virtue’s Angel Tarot Cards:

This deck is perfect for everyone who is a bit scared and confused of being introduced in the tarot’s world. The deck is composed by 78 cards: 22 major Arcana and 56 minor Arcana. There’s also a useful guidebook in which is illustrated every card, with its meaning and with some advices.

Minor Arcanas are divided in four seeds which are the natural elements: Air, Water, Fire and Earth.

Each card is accompanied by a brief description of its message, which is full illustrated in the guidebook.

The presence of friendly and colorful pictures reassure us while we’re divining. This deck has been created with the purpose of being a totally positive one. No card is meant to be read in reverse, so we have no negative messages or omens.

It is important to analyzed each card with attention: the pictures are full of secret meanings for our mind. I’ve found out that I was more and more intuitive by just looking at the pictures without reading the guidebook’s meanings.

I’ve chose it because: when I was a beginner, it has helped me to develop a lot my intuition. It is a positive deck so I wasn’t scared to ask questions. I’ve found that the readings were precise and detailed. If you’re uncomfortable with strange and dark pictures, this deck is the one for you.

2) Tarot of Marseilles

This was my first tarot deck! I know that many people find it difficult to read and to interpret, but I don’t think so. Marseilles Tarots are for beginners who are not scared of the possibility to read negative responses. These are the perfect tarots for the ones who wants a connection with a deep past, an ancient divination method. (They have been created in northern Italy in the 15th century, and the design is always the same since then!)

They are composed by 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana, whose seeds are divided in: aces, wands, cups and coins. The cards have two kind of response: positive or negative. It depends on their verse. A reverse card means a negative message or just a suggestion that something is not going the way we expected.

You’ll find a guidebook with the deck. It illustrates the main characteristics of the cards, but it doesn’t go deep in their description. It is because this deck purpose is to train your intuition as much as possible. This is why I suggest it for beginners: a good tarot reader is meant to be able to snatch a reading’s message just by looking at the pictures.

By the time, Marseilles Tarots gives you this ability (and it is not a small achievement!) The fact that the description is brief and summary, gives you the opportunity to truly listen to your intuition about a card’s message.

The key to be able to have good readings with them is to trust them and in yourself.

I’ve chose it because: I love the fact that their responses are always precise, and that they train your skills as intuitive reader. Their ancient nature has something that connects your mind with something higher. I love to define this deck as ‘the old souls’s one’

3) The Starchild Tarots

This is the perfect tarot decks for any starseed beginner out there :)

The deck includes 79 cards, Major Arcana and Minor Arcana, divided in: wands, crystals, swords and cups. There’s also a detailed guidebook which is detailed and it illustrates 5 tarots spread for absolute beginners.

I’ve tried this deck and I suddenly felt at home. It was like if my star family was speaking to my soul and heart. The pictures bring every starseed in the place he calls home. Blue, pink, violet and gold tones are very calming and I’ve found out that they let the mind work without distractions.

As Marseilles Tarots, these has a reverse meaning. If you are comfortable enough to let cards tell you the truth, you won’t find difficulties in accepting suggestion and proof that, maybe, you are not on the right path.

These cards speaks to the reader’s soul. They are quite easy to interpret just looking at the illustrations. Geometrical shapes are also a good help for the ones interested in sacred geometry.

I’ve chose it because: I’ve looked for a good decks for beginners starseed for a long time, and when I found Starchild Tarots I was in heaven. They really help starseeds to find the truth and to solve problems and dilemmas. Finally, a tool to feel like at home!

I hope that this little article have helped beginners! Let me know which deck you’ve chose!

Love you all, and sending you light and luck,

Ce*

What is going to happen to G Dragon on 2018?

1. The main theme of this new year.

The Page of Sword can indicate that someone and CL is spying on G Dragon. They could simply like G Dragon a lot or they could have ill-intentions against G Dragon in 2018. A warning a deceitful person or a situation where G Dragon will feel deflated and defeated due to another’s efforts, or lack of effort, whichever the case may be by the Page of Swords exposed G Dragon secret in social media and the news media.

G Dragon secret and the truth will be exposed on 2018.

If G Dragon are not the Page of Swords, look around for someone who is creating negative drama who is the Page of Swords sign - PEOPLE BORN: February 20th to the 28th - ASTROLOGY: Capricorn, Libra, Pisces, Aquarius, Sagittarius. Disengage from this person. They are looking for a fight at G Dragon.

2. Departing energies from last year.

The Devil tarot card can represent drugs addictions and drug dealers. It could represent someone who gets another person addicted to drugs so that they can control them. It could represent a boyfriend who gets his waning girlfriend addicted to drugs so that she won't leave him. I feel like G Dragon is controlling someone not to live him or someone controlling him on his love life. Either way he can stop this or something gonna happen to made him stop.

The Devil card indicates that it is necessary to focus energies on positive thoughts and actions. The noose around G Dragon neck can easily be taken off. He need to let go from his chained to be released. So, He can be free from his obsession and personal demon in his private and public life. G Dragon to stay out of drug and sex in the entertainment industry. G Dragon need to be fully sober and clean from his demon and issues with love and habits.

G Dragon need to careful while signing contracts. "The devil is in the details," is the phrase that comes to mind. “Don’t made deal with the devil”.

“Selling your soul has a price.”

3. G Dragon talents will be expressing this year.

The Queen of Cups is one who always sees the positives in things and is a great future-planner. G Dragon relies upon his intuitive abilities in all areas of his life to build a better future for upcoming artist like himself. G Dragon has full of wisdom and he is encouraged to share his wisdom, along with his knowledge and experience,with others people in the entertainment and fashion industry.

I see G Dragon working with fashion model and fashion designer next year in 2018. I see G Dragon into psychic and fortune teller on 2018. I see G Dragon is so obsession with psychic in 2018. There are few Psychic will change his life forever and help him break free from his chained in the dark side of entertainment and fashion world industry. G Dragon need to direct his energies to help people along their chosen pathway.

That’s the Queen of Cup does to her loves one. I see G Dragon acting like a mom instead of a dad on his close loves one like co-workers and friends.

You will see a more motherly side to G Dragon on 2018.

4. Future opportunities.

The Eight of Pentacles can be indicating that G Dragon is sitting on a goldmine. It may be time to show others his abilities and skills by exposing it to a wider audience. His own impeccable high standards may not deem his work fit for sale as he can be his own worst critic but I guarantee he that others will be excited by what G Dragon have on offer and will be prepared to pay for such high quality work. Time to tidy up on his presentation skills and showcase his work at an exhibition, trade show, craft fair or market. Take his work to the people and let them make up their own mind. If G Dragon feel unsure about certain areas, then do a few evening or online courses to add a professional touch. He could also seek the advice of a Mentor at the Enterprise Offices or the fashion world.

G Dragon working hard to master his craft or trade. The Eight of Pentacles indicates he working with his hands and with physical labor, but it can summarize any job. G Dragon put in the time and dedication to his line of work, he will succeed and prevail. G Dragon could propose that he will be listening to one song over and over again still he love it.

5. Upcoming obstacles.

The Empress reversed in a tarot spread tells of wasted energies and unproductive activities which may be adversely affecting your home and family life, as well as your income and financial aspects. There is a need to seek help and advice as problematic situations are arising due to mis-management of financial and monetary obligations.

The Empress reversed turning up can suggest lack of growth and development. G Dragon career can maybe going nowhere because it is not the right path for him. There is a strong sense of inactivity and stunted growth on his career. However, his business may just be going through the incubation period and so patience may be required. G Dragon may not have researched his market well and have now overproduced goods he cannot sell. It can indicate a very lean time in business. Some careful weeding in superfluous areas may be required. He may have over expanded and now need to bring things back to a more manageable level. G Dragon may need to create a new product or idea to waken The Empress once more. He also need to ask him self how well he treat those who work for him. Do you provide a happy and caring environment for your staff? Unhappy staff = lack of Productivity. A lack of consideration and generosity in the workplace may be causing resentment toward him.

If G Dragon working from home this may be causing disharmony in the household. The Empress reversed can suggest domestic disharmony and family arguments. Inter-family relationships may be strained. The Empress reversed can hint at extramarital affairs and infidelity. A family secret or a scandal may be uncovered causing shock and dismay all round. A new addition to the family such as a boy/girlfriend may be disapproved of or made feel unwelcome and excluded from the inner family sanctum. The Empress reversed can suggest commitment issues. You may have a habit of bailing out of relationships as soon as they seem to be going somewhere or settling down. Doing this puts you in control and blocks the natural progression and growth of a relationship. What is it that you are afraid of?

G Dragon may finding it hard to focus on his work with kids running around and chores building up. He need structure and time management rules put in place and then he will succeed.

6. How G Dragon deal with upcoming obstacles.

This is how G Dragon deal with his obstacles on 2018.

The King of Swords reversed in a reading it may be an indication that G Dragon have been (or are going to be) double-crossed, or an injustice has been done to him.

The King of Swords reversed can also indicate a military action from a vile, dictator. G Dragon can be manipulative and calculating and could even be sociopaths to get what he want. If G Dragon doesn’t get his way he will act like a child throw temper tantrum in public. I think some close fans of his know this and even Big Bang staff member know this too about him. So, They tried not to upset him because of G Dragon temper tantrum behavior. G Dragon can be outright rude, nosy and abrupt when he can’t get his way or wants. He does talk the loudest and interrupt people when not agree with him or not listening to him. G Dragon doesn't value other's thoughts or opinions.

G Dragon dislikes loosing at all times, and will go out of his way to manipulate and cause upset on others. He enjoys his own ‘power-trip’ and can act as the intimidating others and a bully.

I believe G Dragon is a cold, logical person who puts feelings aside. He doesn’t want people understand his feeling because they are afraid of their reaction. So, He hide his true feeling because of a fear being abandon and hurt in love.

G Dragon is not a bad guy but very confused about love and romance.

I think his mom cause him to act that way. He act on manipulate and controlling other to do his dirty works.

7. How to G Dragon achieve his goals and dreams.

The Ace of Swords appears in a reading, G Dragon may be sure something is about to change which will have far-reaching consequences, as the Ace of Swords card is one of great power and force. The Ace of Swords is a manifestation of free will because he have a choice whether to use the swords for peace or for war.

G Dragon may find himself in a position of having to take action or make a decision under stressful circumstances. It is important that he keep his emotions balanced in order to make the correct decision. He need to think thoroughly about his next step on his life changing decision. G Dragon need to speak his truth now before someone exposed his truth. Look up at number 1. Page of swords.

Artemis Of The Moon

Artemis Here is the virgin Goddess, Artemis, Running across the mountains of Taygetos, Or up the steep hills of Erymanthos, Running with her maidens, Running with the deer, Accompanied by birds, Ranging widely in the wilderness, Playful and strong and free and beautiful: The heart of her Mother is glad. Homer, The Odyssey (1) Artemis is the preeminent goddess of classical Greece, though her origins are lost in time and matriarchal goddess worship, and may include a descent from a pre-Indo-European sun goddess.(2) Artemis is known from Greek, Lydian and Etruscan inscriptions and texts, and on very ancient tablets from Pylos.(3) Artemis and Hecate are linked through time, through the moon cycle: Hecate, awesome and linked with death, and Artemis, youthful, beautiful, reflecting the purity of nature, and linked with unmarried motherhood.(4) Hecate and Artemis can be seen through the prism of time as two sides of a mirror, and many qualities attributed to one, in one culture, were passed along to the other, at a different time. Artemis was said by the classical Greeks to be the daughter of Zeus and his mistress, Leto, and the twin sister of Apollo, who was born a day later.(5) Athenian girls of marriageable age dressed as bears and danced to her, and offerings on her altars included phalli, sacrificed animals, fruit, spindles, loom- weights, shuttles, and woollen and linen cloth.(6) Artemis was the protector of all life, but she was also the essence of apparent contradiction: the virgin who promoted promiscuity, the huntress who protected animals, a tree, a bear, the moon.(7) She was the epitome of feminine possibility, changing as a woman does as she moves through her life, and an expression of infinite, explosive and sometimes terrifying power. Virgin. Artemis was viewed as perpetually unmarried, virgin in the sense of being her own woman, subject to no male, though she was often invoked in dying-god fertility and harvest rituals.(8) In this context, virginity symbolised autonomy and independence, and the freedom of the goddess to be her own person, to be true to her own beliefs and instincts, and to pick and choose her lovers freely.(9) Other authors see this aspect of Artemis as an Amazon and a passionate and aggressively sensual lover of women.

Huntress. On the full moon in August, in Ancient Greece, one of the great festivals of Artemis was held, dedicated to Artemis in her aspect as Huntress. She is often depicted with a bow and arrows, and with one or more hounds. A goat was sacrificed to her during this festival, to honour the magickal control she exercised over all animal life. Honouring the savage huntress recognises that life feeds on life. Whether the life we consume is animal or vegetable, we cannot survive unless we devour the bodies of once-living entities.(11) In this form, Artemis was an elemental force, a creature of instinct, who killed certain individual animals, but assured that the species survived, and who killed anyone who hunted pregnant animals or their young.(12) There are few Whom laughing Aphrodite cannot conquer; Artemis is one, For she is already in love with the hunt, With the bow and the quiver full of arrows, With the sound and the scent of the chase, The songs and calls of the hunters, And the fierce blood shed by Wild boar and deer as they die In the shadowy forest glades; And the dancing, later, To the music of lyres Among right-living people. Homer Artemis also used her bow and arrows for specific acts of justice and vengeance. When her mother, Leto, was angered by the bragging of Queen Niobe that her own children were superior to Leto's, and called upon her archer daughter for vengeance, Artemis killed all of Niobe's offspring, and turned Niobe into a block of black stone, from which a weeping fountain endlessly poured. Artemis also killed the serpent, Python, and the giant, Tityus, for tormenting her mother, and the spying hunter, Achteon, who secretly watched Artemis at her bath. Artemis executed him by turning him into a stag, and setting her own hounds upon him. Dozens of others were allegedly killed by Artemis, according to Greek myths. Artemis also inflicted Teuthras with leprosy, so that he would die slowly and miserably, when he killed one of her sacred pigs.(14) In addition to being an aloof and balanced game warden, this aspect of Artemis was also a ruthless and swift force for vengeance against sacrilege or insult to the goddess, or on behalf of any woman or female creature who was cruelly treated.

Matron of Birthing Mothers. Artemis was invoked by women in childbirth, as Artemis Eileithyia, and was also considered the protector of young girls. In contrast, in another form, as Artemis Brauronia, she was said to have aroused madness in birthing mothers, and her anger could cause the death of a woman in childbirth.(16) Moon Goddess. As she is most typically pictured in Western Art, Artemis is the virginal moon goddess roaming the forest with her female band, bearing a bow and a quiver of arrows, avoiding men, and killing any many who looked upon her. In an even more ancient association, her name has been said to mean 'High Source of Water', and the Moon is considered to be the source and ruler of all water, and of the tides of the ocean, and of the menstrual cycle.Some depictions of Artemis combine the lunar crescent with the archer's bow, and show her bending the moon into the sickle shape, and aiming an arrow through it. Dark Goddess. In Sparta, her dark aspect was worshipped as Taurian Artemis, allegedly with an annual human sacrifice, which was later modified to ritual flagellation. Ephesus. The many-breasted Artemis of Ephesus was worshipped as a fertility goddess, in a temple which was said to be one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.(21) This temple at Ephesus is believed to have been originally built by the Amazons (1000-600 B.C.E. (22)), and was destroyed by barbarian hordes in the middle of the 3rd century.(23) King Croesus rebuilt the temple 100 years later, and it's chief object of love and adoration, mentioned in the Acts of Apostles, was a palm-wood statue of Artemis. She received many rich gifts, including gold and silver awnings and garments for the statue, which were regularly changed, and which included golden sculptured grapes, giving the appearance of many breasts.(24) Artemis was served by chaste priestesses called Mellisai, or "bees", and by eunuch priests.(25) The temple continued to be a place of reverence until approximately 400 A.D., when Christians allegedly destroyed it.(26)

Magickal Associations. Bears, the fiercest animal mothers, are sacred to Artemis, and she is associated with the constellation of Ursa Major. Guinea fowl are her birds. Her magickal number is 777. Her Tarot cards are Nines, the High Priestess and the Temperance card. The gems associated with her are quartz, moonstone, pearl and crystal. The plants associated with her are artemisia (one form of which is dusty miller, often known as wormwood because it is said Artemis wormed her hounds with it, banyon, mandrake, damiana, almond, mugwort, hazel and moonwort. The animals associated with her are the elephant, dog, centaur and horse. The mineral associated with her is lead. Her perfumes are jasmine, ginseng, menstrual blood, and all sweet, virginal odours. Her magickal weapons are perfumes, fleet sandals, and the bow and arrow. Other concurrent names for her were Callisto, Cynthia, Delia, Phoebe, Pythia and Parthenos. She was subsequently adopted into the Roman pantheon as the goddess Diana.

Much magick invokes Artemis, because of her extraordinary depth and complexity. Out of the wealth of possibilities, here is one lovely example: Woodland Love Spell This spell is designed for those seeking a female lover, using earth-focused forest energy and woodland spirits. On a bright and sunny day, go to a favorite spot in the woods, with fruit, cheese, bread, a knife, a felt tip pen, a small piece of rose quartz, and some green cord. Get comfortable, let go of the mundane world, and tune into the life of the woods around you. Cut a slice of bread, a cube of cheese and a piece of fruit, and bury them in a hold you have dug at the base of a nearby tree. Then, on a large broad leaf, write with your pen: Lady of the Forest, Lady of the vine, Bring to me The love that is mine. Blessed Be. Wrap the leaf carefully around the rose quartz, tie it with the green cord, and raise earth energy to charge your charm. Place the charged charm on top of the buried food, and chant: Oh Ancient Huntress, I come seeking you. Come to me, Artemis, Mistress of the Hunt, Earth Daughter, Green Mother, Lover, Creatrix. Bring me a woman suited to be my partner. I will accept and love the one you choose to Embody yourself within. Let us bind together, Play together, Love together, Entwining our souls and minds, Entwining our hearts and bodies, Entwining our paths and lives. So mote it be.

“I do have a story ‘behind’me.” Daniel

I was born in Denver, Colorado. As a young boy I was taught how to hunt and fish, how to process meat and use the skin for clothes. I learned the survival techniques in order to live off the land. It was important to my dad to pass these skills onto me.

In school I was a good student, always earning an A in most classes. I was definitely a loner of sorts, and became interested in music and martial arts. Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee were my heroes at that time. I think the message then in the late 60’s and early 70’s was to expand the mind, to become “experienced” as Jimi Hendrix sang, through the experimentation of psychedelic drugs.

“Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee were my heroes.”

In early 1981 I signed with a band called the Blitz Girls in Boulder, Colorado. I was the lead guitarist and wrote and produced the music. This was my first major original rock band and we were the hottest act on the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. I was 21. It was a glamorous time with limos, girls and local stardom. My early music success was parallel to my introduction to drugs. In the early 80’s my reward for being a good guitarist was a cocaine bullet in the nose. We were set to make it with all the greats of the early 80’s, but my addiction had other plans.

“In the early 80’s my reward for being a good guitarist was a cocaine bullet in the nose.”

I ended up leaving the band in 1983 and I moved to San Francisco in 1984. I was looking for a heavier experimental type of music in the realm of King Crimson, Nirvana, and Nine Inch Nails. In the mid 90’s I joined the band Hoi Polloi. We had well-written songs, it was like REM meets Jane’s Addiction. We got some interest from Geffen Records but the band broke up in 1996.

In 1999 I moved to Zurich, Switzerland to pursue a relationship with a Swiss girl. My mother had just passed, and felt like this opening was not a coincidence. I loved living in Europe. I focused on learning how to design websites, while my girlfriend finished her degree in Marketing & Economics. I designed my first professional websites in a very cool rooftop apartment that overlooked Zurich. I made a little income as a freelancer, but was ultimately unable to get a work visa, so I returned to the States to work in the declining dot com boom in 2001.

“I taught myself web design in Zurich, Switzerland. I decided to come back to San Francisco, so I could work in dot com.”

I think for me there was a seeking for spirituality in all this, too. The music, art and visuals made me yearn for understanding and identifying God. I got into reading the Tarot cards, the I-Ching and reading the Bible metaphysically. I got very deep into the Rosicrucian Cosmo Conception.

At some point my “experimenting” with drugs crossed the line and I became an addict. I was dependent on them to deal with the world and where I fit into it. I became lost and began using drugs to escape the frustration of how to get to where I saw myself being: playing music, doing art, being creative, without the struggle just to survive. All the survival skills I had learned from my dad didn’t work in this world of addiction. It was a never-ending downward spiral.

In the early 90’s I sought an answer in attending Narcotics Anonymous. I found fellowship and a spiritual approach to addiction. Since then, I have had many relapses and setbacks that interrupted my progress. Basically the “Manic Depression” Jimi sang about. “Manic depression touchin my soul. I know what I want but I just don’t know how to go about gettin it”. But I have remained open-minded and haven’t given up on my spirit; always returning to AA/NA to work the steps, and practicing meditation, yoga and other means to seek a spiritual awakening.

“I haven’t given up on my spirit; always returning to AA/NA to work the steps, and practicing meditation, yoga and other means to seek a spiritual awakening.”

In 2010 I was studying radiology at CCSF, had 3 1/2 years clean and I was living in a big house in the Bayview district with the other guitarist of Abu Ghraib, a performance act that I played guitar in. We were the headlining act at the Elbo Room for the Karla Lavey’s Black X Mass Show. The band members were all professionals and the music was very well written; I really enjoyed being a part of this music project. It was equal to my abilities and gave me a sense of pride and accomplishment.

I lived in that house for 4 years and, and after a falling out with my friend, moved out in December of 2012. I guess I took it for granted that I would find another place where I could have a garden, grow my own food, and cook a meal in a kitchen that the whole house could enjoy.

This began a hard time for me concerning my instability with housing and substance abuse. A lot changed for me along this road. After a couple of years of moving around in bad housing situations, my girlfriend and I split up and I ended up in a hotel in North Beach, where I live now.

“After a couple of years of moving around in bad housing situations, my girlfriend and I split up and I ended up in a hotel in North Beach.”

I had some really dark times during the first couple of years living there. I experienced a lot of loss and isolation. The relationship, the band and the lifestyle I had been living creatively, all went away. Using drugs was so painful and left me feeling near death; physically, mentally and spiritually.

In December 2016, I had a total hip replacement on my left side. I think about the future with employment and there is a lot more I can do now. I met Arjanna, from Stories Behind The Fog, through the Downtown Streets Team, a great program changing the face of homelessness in San Francisco by finding opportunities for people to work and contribute to keeping San Francisco clean and beautiful.

Of course, the first thing Arjanna noticed about me was my companion dragon Jupiter. He is my precious pet. About 5 years ago, I adopted a bearded dragon named Juniper from Animal Control and I fell in love with these awesome creatures. When Juniper died I was heartbroken, and after some time, I went to find another dragon. Jupiter is totally connected to me and I enjoy educating all the people who stop me on the street to ask about what is hanging on my back.

“My bearded dragon Jupiter is totally connected to me. I enjoy educating all the people who stop me on the street to ask about what is hanging on my back.”

Luckily, Arjanna has also given me encouragement with my art and helped put me in contact with some amazing people; all working together to tell some of life’s stories.

Doing my artwork has become important to me recently. I have always drawn psychedelic flowers and now I’ve developed a style on OSB particle board which seems to reach people in a positive way. So, I’m getting that all together through the Community Art Program at Hospitality House, and a merchandising website Artlifting. I’m looking forward to the future with this as a serious business.

“Doing my artwork has become important to me recently. I have always drawn psychedelic flowers.”

Recently I’ve had a change of mind, a real change of heart. Maybe it’s because I’m getting older and wiser. Maybe it’s because I’ve become more aware of how my own mind, with all its potential, has interfered with God’s reality and my ability to work within these boundaries.

God has always been here. Relying on my own will and my perspective being out of sync clouded my reality and caused me to experience misfortune. The psychosis of drug use is a terrible place to contemplate one’s position in the universe. I’ve always had a strong desire to figure it all out and, one day, in desperation I opened up the Bible, closed my eyes and asked: “Please God, help me with this answer I am struggling with.” I opened the Bible metaphysically and my eyes landed on Deuteronomy 10:13 (NIV)

“God has always been here. The psychosis of drug use is a terrible place to contemplate one’s position in the universe.”

“16 The LORD your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul. 17 You have declared this day that the LORD is your God and you will walk in obedience to him, that you will keep his decrees, commands and laws-that you will listen to him. 18 And the LORD has declared this day that you are his people, his treasured possession as he promised, and that you are to keep all his commands. 19 He has declared that he will set you in praise, fame and honor high above all the nations he has made and that you will be a people holy to the LORD your God, as he promised.”

I recently played a live show again at a club in North Beach called Munroe’s. They host a classical showcase featuring music from the seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth and the twentieth century. I asked if I could come in and perform a Gregorian chant set on guitar synthesizer. These days that is what I really want to do, is play guitar, and do music and art.

So yeah, I do have a story behind me. One about overcoming adversity, and the behaviors I have branded within my own mind. And another one about my dear friend Juniper.

Shared weekly on Medium, and soon to be published in a book, ‘Stories Behind The Fog’ is a compendium of 100 stories of people affected by homelessness in San Francisco. The project was triggered by one man’s story that will be released next year in the form of a feature-length documentary:www.moses.movie

This story has been co-written by Arjanna van der Plas and Daniel Henry. Photographed by Juli Lopez in collaboration with our partner organization Downtown Streets Team.
