#tarot of the unknown

[tarotforsale]

For the Over the Garden Wall fans that missed out on Tarot of the Unknown, or are just learning about it for the first time, there's just under 3 days left on the Kickstarter for the anniversary edition! The deck has been available on and off for the last 5 years, resulting in 4 full and pocket sized editions (and a large amount of crappy counterfeit pocket editions).

Tarot of the Unknown is a fully illustrated 78-card deck with gold gilding and matte finish. The anniversary edition boasts brand new art for a bunch of the cards and is anticipated to sell out quickly after printing occurs (it always does).

In the light of the Gravity Falls antics that are occurring right now, I also think it's notable that the same creator made the Mystery Tarot, a fully illustrated Gravity Falls deck which you can, in fact, still purchase!

Five of Wands. Six of Swords. Three of Pentacles.

You’ve had enough of what you don’t want, to know exactly what it is that you do want. Moving away from a painful situation can be difficult, but why cling to a sinking ship? Let go or be taken by the undertow.

The coming months may be a difficult time for you in terms of your sense of self, identity, or satisfaction with the world around you. You might not be happy with the world around you, your level of skill in a certain area, or even within yourself. The good news is, during times like this, self reflection and change from within are great kickstarters of change.

This unhappiness may be brought on by feelings of stagnation in either your career or hobbies, specifically ones where you are creating something. This is a good time to turn your desire for development inward rather than outward - focus on cultivating a better version of yourself. Work on bad habits. Transform yourself, embrace change, and you will reap benefits. It isn't easy - curating oneself never is, but you can't allow that to discourage you.

It might be easy to fall into a sense of despair about your situation, but this is a great opportunity for personal growth if you allow it to be. You may not always see "the point" in engaging in such self development. It may feel overwhelming and uncomfortable, but you need to follow it through. Nothing worth doing doesn't usually come without its own risks and hardships, but see them through. Be your own beacon during this difficult time. Reconnect with the things that really matter to you, at your core - and a renewed sense of purpose and satisfaction will follow.

Queer Adult SFF Books Bracket: Preliminary Round

Book summaries and submitted endorsements below:

The Last Sun by K.D. Edwards (The Tarot Sequence series)

Endorsement from submitter: "Totally immersive, absolutely gut wrenching, with the most fascinating of unreliable narrators, this series has me in a chokehold. This first book is the least diverse, but as the series goes on you get more female characters and more characters of color. I think one of the most personally striking things for me is how nice it is to read a book by an ace man about an ace man. We don't get near enough of those. Plus I will die on the QPR Rune/Brand hill. There are so few stories where one of the most crucial relationships in the book is neither romantic nor sexual and you can pry it out of my cold dead hands."

Rune Saint John, last child of the fallen Sun Court, is hired to search for Lady Judgment's missing son, Addam, on New Atlantis, the island city where the Atlanteans moved after ordinary humans destroyed their original home.

With his companion and bodyguard, Brand, he questions Addam's relatives and business contacts through the highest ranks of the nobles of New Atlantis. But as they investigate, they uncover more than a missing man: a legendary creature connected to the secret of the massacre of Rune's Court.

In looking for Addam, can Rune find the truth behind his family's death and the torments of his past?

The Javelin Program by Derin Edala (Time to Orbit: Unknown series)

When Dr Aspen Greaves signed up for the Javelin Program, humanity's first foray into colonising deep space, they expected to wake up to life in a thriving colony on a distant planet. Instead, they find themself five years away from their destination on a broken spaceship full of complex mysteries, dead astronauts, and a very unhelpful AI.

Aspen wasn't trained for any of this. But if they can't keep themselves alive, get the ship in working order, and find out what went wrong by unravelling a chain of mysteries leading all the way back to distant Earth, then neither Aspen nor the five thousand sleeping passengers in their care will ever see a planet again.

Pierre Botte

* * * *

“All practical esotericism is founded on the following rule: it is necessary to be one in oneself (concentration without effort) and one with the spiritual world (to have a zone of silence in the soul) in order for a revelatory or actual spiritual experience to be able to take place. In other words, if one wants to practise some form of authentic esotericism—be it mysticism, gnosis, or magic—it is necessary to be the Magician, i.e. concentrated without effort, operating with ease as if one were playing, and acting with perfect calm. This, then, is the practical teaching of the first Arcanum of the Tarot. It is the first counsel, commandment or warning concerning all spiritual practice; it is the aleph of the “alphabet” of practical rules of esotericism. And just as all numbers are only aspects (multiples) of unity, so are all other practical rules communicated by the other Arcana of the Tarot only aspects and modalities of this basic rule.“

Challenge | How to Overcome | Goal

Deck: The Wild Unknown by Kim Krans

[tarot-dreams]

Ten of Cups. The Magician. Seven of Pentacles.

In order to move forward, first take the time to reflect upon where you’ve been. While the present may feel challenging, and better days may seem far off, know that this isn’t the first obstacle you’ve encountered. Where you once saw a stumbling block, you now see a stepping stone. The light that once blinded you, now illuminates your path. You grow stronger with each passing day. The harvest will soon be yours.

HUMPHREY is THE MOON. Humphrey is the final enforcer of the Headspace illusion hiding Black Space in a shroud of blissful ignorance. Sunny must reject this deception and face the truth.

What advice can the Major Arcana offer this week?

Take a deep breath and let your heart choose between the seashell, the moon stone and the sun stone. When you're ready, check your advice below. ✨

Week: Aug 21 - Aug 27

Reveal

Seashell: XVIII - The Moon

The Moon card comes to remind you about your intuition. Crossing a dark forest at night can be scary when you don't know what lingers around. Be careful not to let fear overcome your mind, it's easy to get lost in the dark, this can lead to anxiety and self doubt.

If you find uncertainty this week, be sure to trust your intuition, do not let yourself become a prisioner of your fears, the forest might look too dark and intimidating, but the moon light will guide you through your journey.

Moon Stone: V - The Hierophant

This card is here to remind you that you can only go so far on your own, it's okay to accept help. The Hierophant is in constant search for knowledge, to go further with the assistence of a mentor, someone who can provide you the guidance you need.

He encourages you to take the step you might have been thinking for a while, this week you can join a class, visit a workshop or look more closely into learning that new thing you have been so interested about.

Sun Stone: XXI - The World

You may take a look around you, remember your goals and look at the progress you've accomplished. The World can represent both completition of your needs and plans or the opposite, the endless opportunities that are yet to come.

This week you can look back and celebrate your achievements, savour the feeling of "wholeness" that all your hard work has brought. If you're not quite there yet, keep your eyes open as new opportunities are ready to knock on your door, luck is shining upon you.

━━━━━━ ☆ ━━━━━━

Whichever card you've chosen, I hope you have a delightful week!
