Full Moon In Gemini

 The Moon 18 (2)

Since the Moon is full in Gemini today which means the Sun is in Sagittarius, and since I am a Sagittarian, I thought I would dedicate a post to our Lady Diana.  I've just received my new Llewellyn Tarot deck and The Moon in this deck really depicts what I have always felt about the card. 

I've always resisted the traditional image of The Moon, with the angry and somewhat fearful looking face and an interpretation of fear, illusion, anxiety, deception, and bewilderment, etc,  Though I might read it this way if it is reversed, to me the upright Moon invokes a feeling of mystery, intrigue, enchantment and power. 

I’ve also ordered the Legend: The Arthurian Tarot and I love the image of The Moon in this deck also.18  Here pictured is Morgan le Fay:

“The famed and complex Morgan le Fay was the chief priestess of the sisterhood of Avalon, and feminine counterpart to Merlin. Morgan was thought to be of divine origin and was granted great respect, though over time her character was debased.”  Orphalese Tarot

Here is an interpretation which I really love which came with the import of the Connolly Tarot in the Orphalese Tarot program:

“Open yourself to mystery. Explore your dreams and visions for truth that will help you live to the fullest and find answers you seek. Welcome enchantment and imagination into your life to break up dreariness and monotony. Embrace the shadows for in them you will find great treasure.”

Though the moon only shows herself clearly when it is dark and more difficult to see clearly, producing shadows which may seem threatening and seem to move of their own accord, my feeling has always been that she produces a feeling of sacred insight, the thrill of the hunt and a sense of awe and beauty.  So I salute our Lady on this day when she shows herself in her full and greatest glory.

New Tarot Group On Yahoo

Tarot Books Cover2Cover
...........A Tarot Book Study GroupBookshelf4-1Resizedto25originalsize-with frame

How many Tarot books do you have on your bookshelf that you've never read completely? If you're anything like me, I'm guessing quite a lot! Come and join us at Cover2Cover, and we'll read them together.

Here at Cover2Cover we feel that one of the surest ways to tap into the wisdom contained in the Tarot, is to study what has been shared by those who have gone before us and attained that wisdom.

This group will be a lively interactive online workshop, sharing the insights we glean from the exercises and activities outlined in the books we study. We hope to enhance our own intuition, creativity, and individual gifts and to empower ourselves by connecting with Tarot in a truly personal way.
