Challenge #03801-J148: For My Love

A human makes an alcohol substitute that has the property that, no matter who drinks it, the person starts to laugh. That's all it does. Tastes good, but it's called giggle juice for a reason. -- Anon Guest

Dagoburt Gluv had a great love. As an innkeeper, he saw a lot of people, and knew a lot of things by pure osmosis. He also knew, and wished to keep Samara Oatbeard as both friend and wife.

Samara came by once a week with loaves of ginger cake and pickled herrings for his patrons. She would always order the small beer[1] and something Dagoburt had cooked himself. She had to have noticed he was giving her the fancier pastries, or a little extra serving of her favourite vegetables. Just as he had noticed that she was putting a little extra effort into the ginger cakes. Or a few extra spices into the herring brine.

It was a slow and nervous courtship. Spectated of course by the Inn's regulars. Dagoburt often considered charging them extra on Odinsdays.

It is Odinsday my fellows

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[taocrafttarot]

Admit it.

If you don't know, you will later if you stick with this for any amount of time.

Own more than one Tarot deck, that is.

If you are a Tarot enthusiast you probably have a deck or two around, especially if you read very often. If you are a professional, it goes double. We all end up with more than one deck. Most are self-purchased, which shows what baloney the superstition about being gifted your first deck can be. The tradition of it has value, I suppose. It would boost the confidence of a young reader and tie them to some degree with a mentor, or at least connect them to a more experienced Tarot reader one way or another.

Some of the professional Tarot readers I know have dozens. Oodles and shelf loads even. I'm not a collector by nature and started off swearing that a good reader should only ever need one deck - so of course I have 10.

Choosing a deck for a reading is the same as dealing with reversals. When you get right down to it, it is a matter of pure intuition.

With reversals, I just feel my way through it and decide if the reversal should be considered as PART of the card's message, or whether it was just happenstance in which case I just flip the card right side up and move on.

Same with picking up the deck for these collective energy blog readings or private email readings.  For in-person readings, I carry two decks in unmarked tarot bags with me and let the client choose. I have one deck, the only one gifted to me, that I use only to read for myself. I use the Alleyman's, Heart of Stars, and 1909 RWS  primarily here in the blog - the first two because their creators have graciously granted me permission to do so and the latter because it is in the public domain.

Often I'll compare and contrast the different decks when I'm doing a one card post like this. Different decks visually capture different facets of the deck. You can do the same thing by doing an online image search to browse different decks.

Today's card is a good example. Some cards use fairly consistent images across decks. The three of swords, for instance. It almost alwasy has some iteration of three swords in or around a heart. I don't know if that is by design, by coincidence or the sheer strength of the card's presence in the collective unconscious. Other cards, like the five, differ. The RWS above gives a sense of "cleaning up" after a battle, both in the literal sense and in the modern meaning of profiting to the max. The figure seems to be picking up dropped swords, smiling and making gains from the suffering of others.  

The Heart of Stars portrays the figure as more egotistical, even sadistic or disturbed taking a form akin to the Joker in the Dark Knight series of Batman movies.

Witches Tarot with art by Matt Evans shows five swords arranged tips together and downward in the sky with a dragonfly and fairies  (I think hinting at the trickster wishes granted in Fea and Genie lore)

The five of swords made by Sam Dow for the Alleyman's Tarot shows a throne made of a tree with swords in the roots.

All show victory but at a high cost or some sort of concurrent loss, but all have subtle differences that shift the emphasis.

The advice today is basically try not to shoot yourself in the foot as the saying goes. Ask yourself if the victory, the win, the competition is worth the cost.

Me, shooting a quick prayer to Odin since it’s Wednesday and storming a little bit (storms feel holy to Odin-Loke):

My coworkers: *spilling tea about how this job has zero upward mobility and everyone here is either barely breaking even or working multiple jobs to make a livable amount of money*

So I think Odin heard me and is giving Information to me. Many thanks, greybeard.

🧿WEDNESDAY gets its name from Woden, the Old English name for the God Odin! Engage this complex image I have created.

"The name Wednesday originates from the Old English name for the God Odin (Woden). Norse Spirituality is relevant to the West for many reasons. All of the holidays in America and Europe are placed upon days observed first in Old Norse spirituality. These days are saved to value OUR CREATORS, who fight for us every moment against pre-creation beings!" 💜🗽💜🎿💜❄️💜🦌 I hand-make talisman's, paintings/sculptures for you or your loved ones!🌷All of my creations are made of 100s of ancient, powerful symbols!

Merry Monday!

With these fresh cards, it finally feels as if we have moved past the focus on cycles and change and ebbing and flowing. No Moon card or tide images today.

In one sense it feels like we've cycled back to that still, "slack water" image that come through when the big Moon card energy first appeared but it isn't "slack" at all really. It feels more like alert, deliberate, poised, ready-to-move stillness. It is a liminal energy, and the word balance doesn't quite capture it. It isn't the dynamic balance or back-and-forth balance that we see in the Temperance and Two of Pentacles cards. It feels more like a flat out, steady, matter-of-fact "Both" It isn't balance or tension between opposites, it is the presence of diverse things without tension, without a need to balance. That "coexist" bumper sticker comes to mind.

Oxford Language defines liminal as "occupying a position at, or on both sides of, a boundary or threshold." The "both" part is key here. Not balance, not cycle, not give and take - flat out all of the above, all at the same time.

It is interesting that we have two aces and one major arcana card. If this was a 'yes or no' kind of just for fun reading, it would be a pretty strong flat out YES. We all know Tarot doesn't really work that way, but I think yes or no readings can be helpful in limited situations. Usually in minor choices where it is truly are equal and the situation is something that could be decided by an actual 50-50 random chance coin toss. Yes/no readings are exactly that - a coin toss, but with slightly more food for thought from three randomly selected Tarot cards adding their two-cents to the conversation.

September 11 - October 31 2023

Ask a yes/no question in the blog comments to get a FREE "Zombie Cat* yes/no Tarot reading in an upcoming blog post.

The fading energy is the Ace of Cups. This is a card of creation, creativity and emotions. The current energy is the Ace of Pentacles. The real message is in the two side by side more than either one fading or growing individually. Here is where that liminal both-ness we were talking about earlier is strongest. It isn't head over heart or emotions over intellect...it is BOTH in generous measure. Think "emotional intelligence." These two cards together give an energy that is alert, engaged, feeling but thoughtful, active and effective - all at the same time. The two together build an extraordinary foundation upon which to build.

The growing energy, the Magician, is exactly that building process. The Magician is about transformation and manifestation - not just sitting and wishing. In "as above so below" the below is your part of the deal, your end of the table to lift. You do your part in the practical-pentacle part of life, and the universe helps the emotional-energy-spiritual-psychic part. Neither half is better or worse or more important than the other. It isn't even a see-saw balance of the two. It's both, all at the same time. The Magician's magick is about have a foot firmly planted on each side of the "as above, so below" equation.

That is what makes up liminal spaces and energies and that is what makes up our energy flow for this week.

At least as it stands now. Please come back Wednesday for another "Odinsday Oracle" post and Friday for the Weekend Update where we'll take another look at the Magician, our growing energy card to see how it unfolded during the business week and what, if anything, there is to see about the weekend.

Thanks for reading. See you at the next sip!
