Wheel of Fortune: Winning

12:06 PM 3 Comments

Wheel of Fortune=10, Chakra 3=Jupiter

I am very happy that some of you have been reading and paying attention especially to the Emperor and the Magician lessons :) Probably is in the stars that I discovered the good news.. right when I got to this card... Good news come to those who wait.. The Wheel is all about timing.. the right, exact time!!

I am also happy that today I will write about the Wheel of Fortune- that is such a positive card when is in upright position. It is all about winning, good luck, chance and change. I personally enjoy the winning part.. I love the game, the suspense and the intensity of the feelings that comes with this card.

Sentimental Advice

Luck is on your side- so whatever you will do you will win ! You feel happy and accomplished.


Fate/ Fortune:

The situation will change/ turn in your favor. You will soon have a wonderful experience.

Solution:

Do not plan anything. Just let things happen on their own. Fate is on your side.

In Business:

You can go ahead a take a chance. Gambling and speculative winnings are favored. Winnings can be big, but so are the losses if the card falls upside down. Good business news in upright position and of course bad news when reversed.

If a Person:

As a person it portrays Jupiter. That means someone that likes expensive things and enjoys spending it. This is definitely NOT a cheap person. An expansive personality.. with joie de vivre.
A very optimistic person. It can be a sagittarius or an aries.

Reversal:

Expect bad luck.. things will not work out anymore. There will be changes and you may not like them. Do NOT gamble because you may risk big losses.

Meditation:

  1. What is my fate in life?
  2. How well adjusted am I?
  3. How is my self-esteem?

The Hermit: Solitude

4:49 AM 0 Comments
The Hermit is about Internal Peace and Solitude.

This card is a loner and he enjoys that?! Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City without the drama and the commitment issues; It is someone that wants to be single.

I am personally not very fond of this card.. because I do not understand it.

Sentimental Advice:

Enjoy life on your own. Even if you get into a relationship is not something that is going to last, so enjoy it while you can. It is also a sign that you should find a retreat..a space of your own.

Fate:

You will find your way all by yourself. Rely and trust none except yourself.

Solution:

You need to learn to be with yourself. Seek wisdom through meditation or through writings of others.

Physical Personality:

It can represent you or someone else. In the first scenario it is a call for solitude. You need to be on your own to figure things out. When it represents someone else it will be a teacher or a counselor.

In Business:

It is Mercury- meaning business or enterprise. Business is good- It can also represent a merchant. When the Hermit is reversed it can predict financial ruin/ bankruptcy.

Reversal:

The Hermit is about communication, so when is reversed represents misunderstandings.. or what you hear is not what you expected. If it depicts a person is someone very immature.

Meditation:
  1. Practice silence;
  2. When is the last time I spent time with myself?

The Strength in Leo is Courage

2:56 AM 0 Comments
Strength= Leo= Courage and Endurance

In some tarot decks card 8 is for Justice and the Strength is card 11. There should be no confusion: the rule of thumb is image prevails; forget about the numbers!

Strength in Tarot is not about physical power. As a matter of fact when this cards shows in a reading is questioning a strength issue.
For example: how strong am I on a particular matter? How long can I take it? (eg. how long can I put up with apes that break into my email and redirect my correspondence?)

Tarot Strength also speaks about the courage to admit to our faults.

And finally Strength is about being yourself and not a " converted for money bimbo machine" such Mihaela Radulescu. In case you wonder who is she?- a TV person on Romanian TV that made her "career promoting vulgarity and bad taste". I hired her in the early 90's as a presenter to an LG Brand Show. My boss advised against hiring her calling her "incompetent" and "looking not very attractive", however I insisted in giving her a chance. Her appearance was a total disaster because she came totally unprepared and her English languages skills were well under mediocre. What amazed me was her arrogance and the fact that she blamed it on the Korean people that she cannot understand English. I wonder why she did not say that before she accepted the job?
I guess if the purpose is making money by any means she succeeded but failed at everything else.

By contrary, thinking of a positive example to illustrate Strength is Lady Di. She had the strength to get out of a bad marriage and to pursue her love passion for a Muslim- Dodi. Her strength was what the Mossad (Jewish Terrorist Organization) could not handle and that is why they murdered her. Prince Charles had nothing to do with her death as the media tried to suggest.

Sentimental Advice:

Do follow your passions and enjoy every minute of your life. Be emotionally strong and you will succeed! Short term romantic escapes are encouraged.

Fortune:

There will be some exciting moments ahead. Get ready to launch your plans.

In Business:

Strength is about Leo and as a House 8 rules governs entertainment and gambling. Money is coming from speculative transactions. Luck is on your side, so go ahead and take your chance.
With Strength reversed by contrary take some extra care when handling chance.

Physical Attributes:

When portraying a person it will represent someone fit that enjoys physical activities. There is not physical strength but this person has strong determination and will.

Reversed:

Strength reversed means: too much attention to material vs. spiritual; sending or receiving mixed messages; too much passion.

Meditation:
  1. Did I discover the lion within me?
  2. Can I bring more "life" into my life?

The Chariot: Victory

10:49 AM 0 Comments
With the Chariot we have victory after strife, after hard work; Recovery from illness, moving or travel plans even a new car.

Think victory of a democratic election- exactly the opposite of what happened in Broward County where the same state attorney has been in place since mid 70s. An election means choice..but when the same person stays in place forever we return to the Middle Ages. When that person is in charge of an army of people that gives place and opportunity to create an organization behind the local government with government power, but a different agenda.
How can something like this be overlooked for so many years? Who is at gain?

Sentimental Advice:

Overcome conflicts and disputes. Make new choices.. Focus on new things.

Fortune:

Everything will come to an end. The end you have expected all along.

Solution:

Do not hesitate. Make a step forward. Try to keep the UNITY in order to succeed.

In Business:

The chariot in this position represents reward, return on your investments. If the card is reversed it means expenses because of an automobile malfunctioning.

Reversal:

Now is not a time to take any chances or you risk to get hurt. It could also mean a pending illness or a disease.

Meditation:
  1. What I need to resolve in order to achieve?
  2. What are my targets?

The Lovers: The Power of Heart

10:44 AM 0 Comments

The Lovers= Gemini

I have spent almost my entire life searching for love and I even made LOVE my purpose in life. Love is important to me.. and I always hoped for the perfect marriage. Did that happen? My advice is: love can be deceiving and could lead to complications you will never dream of. So please be careful!
I could probably write my dissertation in matters of heart, but I will resume to the Tarot context.
What is most confusing about this card is that most people think of it as representing lovers and it is NOT exactly so. The Lovers Card in Tarot is about choices- good and bad. It is also a card about duality- that will make decision making very difficult.

Sentimental Advice:

You must make wise choices regarding a current or future love affair. It could mark the beginning of Romance, but there will be a choice involved and there will be temptation.

Solution:

Avoid indecision and follow your heart. There may be a conflict between your mind and your heart choices, however you will need to make a choice. Of course the solution stays on the heart side.

Future/ Fortune:

A valuable experience will follow. You can trust your heart!

In Business:

This card is all about partnerships, joint ventures and shared funds. Now is a good time to combine your resources. It could also mean a prenuptial agreement. When the card is reversed think- your joint assets may no longer be joint.. Your financial security disintegrates.

Physical Appearance:

This card is not referring to one person, but to a couple. It could represent a married couple or just a couple in a strong relationship.

Reversal:

The card reversed indicates a separation, even loneliness. It could also mean bad choices, infidelity or interference.

Meditation:
  1. Why don't you try writing a love letter- even if is addressed to an imaginary lover.
  2. How deep is my love really?
  3. Do I love my significant other or am I just waiting until someone else will show up?

The Hierophant/ The Faith

1:37 PM 0 Comments
The Hierophant= Taurus=Venus
it is all about Faith and Tradition, even Law; respecting the rules;

Sentimental Advice:

Be open, honest and have faith in the other party. Think of an invisible force watching over everything you do. Do not step outside the laws of morality (eg- it is not Ok to date a married man/ woman)

The Future/ Fate:
Soon you will finally understand what is really going on. Do not worry! You have all the reasons to be optimistic.

Solution:

Do not judge the book by its cover! Appearances may be deceiving. Look things up thoroughly.

Physical Appearance:

- a spiritual father, someone you highly respect or in a family it could represent the head of the family (someone that is respected);

In Business:

Well you have to play by the rules. This is not a good time for speculation. Use traditional business channels. See your banker for better investments- but do not try anything new. Now is a good time to consult a financial advisor or get the legal counsel you need.
If the Hierophant is reversed- your beliefs are holding you from wise investments.

Reversal:

Things are out of order or collapsing. Your ideas are seen as unconventional. It is time to rethink the entire situation on your own. DO not rely on counsel at this time. To illustrate I am going to use a personal example:
There is the law, as in and by the book and then, there is the interpretation of the law. Well this is where the problem comes in. The traditional view may be intentionally corrupted in order to pursue revenge. Then someone uses the "law" in corrupted way to harass an innocent victim. The original victim is in fact the harasser and the accused becomes the VICTIM. The law in the WRONG PEOPLE' hands can in fact become the means to destroy someone's life.
This is how some corrupted South Florida Jewish government people discard of people they find inconvenient for a variety of reasons.. including political reasons...

Meditation:
  • What is important for you in life?
  • Can you prioritize?
Ex this is my priority list: 1. Love; 2. Family (or maybe in reversed order); 3. Justice (getting justice done for the wrong things that happened to me); 4. Health; 5. Material Things (house, car, boat, etc)
