Corresponding week of the Lunar year:
Comparative to the Empress card.
Card Description.
A well dressed woman, devout falconer, in an established and abundant private garden, admiring nine "blossoming" pentacles. On her left wrist a leather glove with a hooded falcon.
Meaning: “Material success and contentment”. Unlike the Hermit, the woman here retreated from the world, into her own private world of pleasure. The main indication here is that of order, security in possessions and relationships, financial accomplishment and success. The physical things you have been seeking, things you wanted but were unable to buy, you will finally be able to have. The Nine is what success leads to and feels like.
You can even start thinking of getting away for a while, but somewhere with luxury, butlers and relaxing spa baths—the nicer things of being wealthy.
Upright:
Material well-being. The ability to plan. Safety, security, prudence, success, accomplishment. Well earned retreat.
You have the wisdom and experience you need to properly manage your affairs and to handle any problems that may come up in the future. Your goals are well and truly accomplished, or soon will be. Your prudent management, planning and actions have been your strong point.
Reversed:
Danger, threat to your safety. Injury and illness. Financial instability and losses.
You need to take heed in situations which may seem to be dangerous. Don’t expose yourself to unnecessary risk at this time. Consider going to the doctor about nagging aches and pains or just feeling “not healthy”. Financially, one could say, not the best of times. You didn’t manage to purposefully protect your investments and income and don’t be surprised if you end up with more problems. Start investing, even a little, of your finances in something substantial with a very low risk factor.
Present:
8 of Pentacles.
Card Description.
A young person at work carving pentacles, 6 is completed and he is adding the finishing touches to the last two. In the background are hills with a castle visible.
Meaning: “Success through knowledge and craftsmanship”.
The eight of Pentacles refers to success by means of knowledge and abilities. These are already acquired and not necessarily developing thereof. This card shows your success happening. You are on your way to achieve recognition by means of your experience.
Upright:
Success, ability, craftsmanship. Knowledge.
In this card it is obvious that your success lies in your own ability and craftsmanship. Here it is not about learning the ability, but already having it. In being eight, you know what you want, how to get it and where to go. You have planned your future well and are on your way to success. The success you will deserve or earn is based on your own knowledge and skills.
Reversed:
No interest, ambition or knowledge.
Rather consider changing your attitude or move on to the area of interest you have been successful in, you may gain the interest and ambition needed, develop your skills and increase your knowledge to ensure your success. You lack the needed interest, ambition and knowledge to decide in which direction to go, or has not identified your goal and ambitions. Skill is also described here, but in the sense of someone being to clever for their own good; the mind turned to cunning and intrigue. You can also be seen as hypocritical and vain. Approaching your future, to have this attitude and hope for substantial success is fallacy.
Future: Page of Cups.
- this card can represent a child - male or female
- appearance - fair/brown hair, brown or blue eyes
- positive characteristics - loving, caring, creative
- negative characteristics - selfish, scheming, insecure
- possible event - easy to fall head over heels in love,
but be careful of giving your heart so readily. Take heed
of a friends advice as the object of your desire may not
be all that they seem. Can also mean a need to study for
exams.
Current love interest.
Justice.
This is divine justice as opposed to human justice- absolutely impartial and fair. She stands in direct contradiction to human justice, which is influenced by factors that make it imperfect. True justice, divine justice, cannot be swayed by either influence or personal preferences, or by the simple limitations of human ability to judge between right and wrong. That which should be, will be, and no one can change it.
Her scales are absolutely in balance, and she sees clearly what must be done. The sword in one hand and the scales in the other symbolise the dual nature of Justice: accuracy and severity.
In this stage of your spiritual development, this is the type of vision that is required of you to learn as an initiate. To pass through these portals you must learn to look outward at the world and inward at yourself without bias, with your eyes open, seeing only and precisely what there is, rather than what you want to see, or hope to see, and judging it only and exactly for what it truly is.
Upright
Equity, victory of the right in general; also triumph for the deserving side in legal matters. Ability to judge without being swayed by personal considerations or bias. Fairness, reasonableness, proper balance. Impartiality. This card also indicates (and sometimes influences) lawsuits and legal matters.
Reversed
Bigotry, inequality, bias. Abuse of justice, complications in legal affairs. Unfair punishment; excessive severity.
This is Justice as an ideal- to do what is right despite opposition, or personal inclination, or the vagaries of human law. If this card represents a situation, you will get that which you deserve; the outcome will be strictly fair and absolutely right under the circumstances. If this card represents you, then your perception of the situation in which you find yourself, or of the people you’re dealing with is absolutely correct. You have made, or are capable of making, the correct decision here. Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.
Wheel of Fortune.
We are all bound to the Wheel of Fortune. Some of us are fighting our way upward while others fall by the wayside. Some sit on top of the heap, apparently unaffected by the vagaries of fortune. But the wheel is turning for everyone, whether or not we are aware of it. What results for everyone is pure chance, and has nothing to do with individual worth, or lack of it. The message here is in direct contrast to Justice. In both cards, each individual is treated with strict impartiality. In Justice, however, the result is fair; you get what you deserve. In fortune you get what happens to come, no matter what you deserve. What’s worse, the forces controlling your life don’t consider you, or anyone else, at all; they don’t even see you. In effect you become like the objects on the jugglers table, tossed about at random. In fact you are even less than that, for at least the juggler watches what he’s working with, even if he doesn’t care about anyone but himself. The Wheel of Fortune teaches us that there are things in life that just happen, and over which not you, and not even blind fate has control. You must be aware that the wheel is constantly turning, and that your life is being affected by it. If you want success, you have to fight to take control of the uncontrollable; to force fate to give you what you choose, whether or not you deserve it.
The secret of good fortune is to learn to use your psychic, or inner powers, to control your fate, rather than allowing yourself to be shifted around by any wind that blows. Blind fortune has no interest in who wins or who loses; she simply turns the wheel at random. If you want to come out at the top, you have to learn to care enough about what happens to you to take control of the Wheel of Fortune.
Upright
Good luck, destiny, fortune. Success, an unexpected turn of events. Promotion or elevation. Victory or obstacles overcome by good fortune.
Reversed
Surplus of acquisitions, dragging you by the heels. Failure. Bad luck, problems, unexpected harm.
Future, The Falling Tower.
The most familiar story corresponding to the symbolism of this card is that of the tower of Babel. The people of Babel came very close to accomplishing what could be humanity’s greatest goal: a complete unity of purpose. They all spoke one language, they all worked together to accomplish one end result. The result of their cooperation was that their work was destroyed, their language was confused, and they were scattered to the four corners of the Earth.
It’s important to understand that it was not the actual building of the tower that was wrong; and not the fact that they all worked together in perfect cooperation in building it. Where they erred was in the reason the tower was built. Rather than using their united strength to reach toward the divine in themselves, they used it to challenge God and to attempt to rule the Earth in God’s stead.
This card follows from Arcanum Fifteen, The Devil. The purpose of your path toward spiritual enlightenment is to become like God. But, says the Tarot, you don’t become like God simply by having power over the material plain. If you are tempted by the possibilities in controlling this world instead of striving for wisdom and spiritual growth, you will lose all you gained. The reason for the disaster is not because you developed great powers, but because you misused them. It is destruction resulting directly from your own lack of understanding and good judgment, and/or from the misuse of your own free will.
The Falling Tower can represent actual material loss as in finances, relationships, prestige or personal influence. It can also be understood as a warning that your powers are not as great, or your understanding of them as complete, as you believe. In this sense, it illustrates the disaster which can and will happen to those who use magick without understanding its true purposes, the destruction of the person who plays with powers beyond their control or understanding.
In the spiritual sense, The Falling Tower symbolizes the result for you if you take the path the Devil offered- even though, in this case, you strike out on your own to do it.
Although it has been hinted at along the way, this is the first direct statement in the Tarot of how you must view your ultimate goal. It is not this world you are trying to conquer.
At this point of your search, it is still tempting to evaluate success according to the terms of this world, to impress others, to rule this plane, or in some other way to attain mundane status. What makes it even more tempting is that you now have attained the power to twist the world at your will- at least for a time. But your goal is greater than that. You must learn to see beyond the obvious to a higher level of attainment. If you surrender your spiritual progress for material power, you will lose everything you have gained.
Upright.
Disruption, adversity, calamity, misery, deception. Unforeseen ruin, termination. Disgrace. A financial or personal loss, such as the destruction of your home or business, the breakup of a marriage or relationship, any disastrous change in your personal or financial affairs; in particular an unforeseen catastrophe.
Reversed.
Still foretells calamities and losses, but of a lesser importance in your life; they will disrupt your life while they’re going on, but they don’t mean the end of everything you’ve built. A sudden unexpected change. Oppression, adversity, deception, tyranny.
That which you have built is ending in disaster. In most cases, these disasters could have been avoided or prevented had you acted wisely to begin with. If you act wisely now, you may be able to alleviate at least some of the problems about to occur.
If this card represents you, you’ve overstepped yourself and are about to pay the price. But, even in this case, it is not a punishment for hubris. It is disaster resulting from the fact that you believed you had the powers or authority that in fact you don’t, or because you used your powers or authority unwisely or for the wrong reasons. In simple terms: you blew it, and your resulting downfall is your own fault.
Blessed be
