Did you know every card in the playing deck corres

Did you know every card in the playing deck corresponds to a time period? December 3-12 is not only fiery Sagittarius but “the Guardian,” or the 8 of Diamonds in the new cartomancy deck, “The Doors of Somlipith.”
The Guardian is a card in the suit of Fire, and is a potent archetype. Looking at it, we see a hybrid beast caught in a golden net, fiercely guarding something we cannot see- something of value. 8 in cards is about Karma, and purpose built brick by brick over long periods. The 8 of Diamonds is a card on a mission, and charged with sparkling light.

If you were born in this time period, or know someone who was, contemplation of this card brings deep transformative insight. #doorsofsomlipith #thedoorsofsomlipith #cjfreemanart @redfeather.mbs #astrologycards #sagittarius #hybred #hybrid #hybridbeast #cardmeaning #transformation #archetypes #archetype #decans #astrologicaldecan #egyptianastrology #pyramidknowledge

Medusa is the 2 of Spades in “The Doors of Somli

Medusa is the 2 of Spades in “The Doors of Somlipith” divination card and book set. This is a powerful archetype with deep and layered meaning.

In the guide book for this deck you’ll find the story of Medusa. If you’re not familiar with it, it’s a powerful tale of a fair maiden who becomes cursed after being violated by the god Neptune. From then on, all who look at her enchanted visage are transformed to stone. Except for the hero Perseus, who is able to end the suffering of all by approaching the gorgon in a way others had not.

This is a short summary, but this card conveys a very personal meaning for each person who receives it. Surrounding cards create a fairy-like story backdrop that brings out additional and unexpected meaning.

If you haven’t seen this deck before, there are so many powerful images that really make every reading so interesting and turn ordinary cartomancy into profound opportunities for transformation.

In the playing deck, Courts are any cards 10 and above. When doing a reading and a Court appears, or a whole bunch of Courts, you have a strong message on your hands.

Courts are very different than pips (lower numbered cards) in that they signify people. They are the characters in the story that is unfolding on your table. The cards around them show what is happening to those people.

Lots of Courts can mean lots of people and very little that is actually happening!

Courts bring a sense of royalty and command to a reading. Each has a great presence, with positive traits and also tendencies that need to be worked on for personal growth. #cartomancy #courtcards #courtcard #ladycards #ladycard #doorsofsomlipith #thedoorsofsomlipith #cjfreemanart #howtoreadcards #howtoreadplayingcards #howtoreadtarot #esoteric #esotericism @redfeather.mbs #esotericknowledge #mysticism #gothicstyle #darkart #selftaughtartist #selftaughtart #playcardart #cartomancyreading #cartomancie #cartomancycommunity #cartomancer #cartomancercards

An Astrological Clock commands respect. A good one

An Astrological Clock commands respect. A good one exudes the rich history of the sages and wisdom keepers of the ages. It holds cosmic keys. It is complex like a fine wine.

So i have been searching, you see, for my own clock’s proper place and presentation. Not for onlookers, mind you, but to please the Spirits of the Clock. I simply want my Clock to be happy.

And so i have found peace in the current arrangement: a stack of eclectic books from different traditions, modest spotlights with rotating color, and the Clock does the rest. I have cleaned the wall and made sure that nearby art, etc., feels in agreement.

Centrally placed of course, but out of the way of high traffic. That’s it.

Playing cards can be a reflection on the Earth of

Playing cards can be a reflection on the Earth of what is going on in the Heavens, if we know how to look.

Sun and Moon both find their expression in cards, and give us new ways of playing with and exploring both cards and planetary cycles.

The cards in this video relate to the current astrology. ♥️’s correspond to the Watery Scorpio, a fixed astrology sign that is expressed within the numbers 4, 5 and 6.

Sagittarius comes next, with it’s Fire. It is considered a mutable sign. We can deepen our understanding of this zodiac sign through cards belonging to the Fire element, the ♦️’s, and find our focus within the final trinity of numbers: the 7, 8 and 9.

To learn more about this exciting study check out the latest book and card set, “The Doors of Somlipith,” published by @redfeather.mbs 2023.

When doing a reading with playing cards and a Quee

When doing a reading with playing cards and a Queen appears, it signals several things.

First thing, is you know you have a female of great stature. It is female ENERGY though, right? Cards pick up on energy, so it can even sometimes indicate a male or a younger female who is embodying female maturity.

Also, because Queens have such high rank in the deck, they denote someone who is in charge - whether it be in the Physical Realm, Emotional Realm, Spiritual Realm, or Mental Realm. This is depending on the Suit to which they belong.

Each of the 4 Queens also has specific personality traits or tendencies.

Here in the video, we see Morgana Queen of the Earth. She is a sorceress of Earth Magic, a woman who is highly independent and likes to take charge. Patient and calculating, watch out for her vain tendencies. The aging female.

Samhain is one of four ancient “cross quarter da

Samhain is one of four ancient “cross quarter days.” This means it is a center point between Equinox and Solstice. We acknowledge this day of cosmic beauty on November 1st, but that date was chosen for convenience in adherence to the Gregorian Calendar. This is basically the fake calendar we all live by day-to-day, but if you look at the Astrological Clock, we can see that Samhain lands somewhere between November 3rd and 12th. I believe the ancients had a many days long ritual and feasting celebration to connect with this powerful energy. Samhain is a heightened place of access to the richness of night energy and the spirit world, and the female’s innate connection to this Realm. The card for focus for Samhain is the 5 of Hearts, Fata Morgana.
