I'd like to work with my Lo Scarabeo Book of Thoth Etteilla more, so this will be a place for documenting my readings.  For today's interaction with my subconscious: (Strength) Page of Wands (Good Stranger), Ace of Cups (Table), 4 of Swords (Solitude) I'll be distracting myself from the message of the subconscious, it seems. There are a lot of suppressed emotions, and a wish to sit down in solitude and sort them out. But I'm still hoping to overcome everything by force. I wonder if Ace of Cups also hints at the family drama.  |

The best way of working through the stuff today:
Monk/Hermit, Light, 10 of Coins (House) Could it be more literal?  Stay at home and meditate.

Ace of Coins (Perfect Contentment), 7 of Coins (Money), 3 of Wands (Enterprises)
I need to find that value in what I do, and invest more and more if I'd like to see more output. I should also be more adventurous in exploring new avenues.

If it was a book, what would it be about?Page of Cups (Blond boy), Rest, 9 of Coins (Effect) The top keyword on the Rest card actually says 'Etteilla'. A book for beginners, perhaps? Practical work with Etteilla for newbies. Hm, food for thought.

Some advice on home improvements:
Knight of Swords (Military), 4 of Swords (Solitude), Justice (7 of Wands - Negotiations)
The last two cards are, of course, the need to discuss things with the people I live with, and find some compromises, should we disagree. Knight of Swords + 4 of Swords remind me of only taking the bare necessities along, like a traveling military man or a hermit would. How much does one really need for basics and some comfort?

What will happen if I go to the seminar this fall?
Light, King of Swords (Man of robe), Magician
I think I like this. New clarity awaits, and I'll have a chance to learn something from more knowledgeable and experienced people.

Why is M so adamant about this fashion issue?
Strength, Temperance, King of Coins (Brown-haired man)
It seems like it's a bit of a powerplay and also aversion to anything 'radical' or 'unconventional'. I wonder about that King of Coins, though. Was her father of similar view?

How will the event in August go?
2 of Wands (Sorrow), Human and the Quadrupeds (Voyage), Ace of Coins (Perfect contentment)
The occasion is indeed sad, but it's also going to be a sort of closure and, hopefully, a way forward for us all. I like the Ace at the end: what's gone is gone, it's time to create new things in our lives.
Update: A beautiful and meaningful evening indeed. A lot of people cried, there were good memories, jokes, and some sadness.

How should I proceed with the project?
5 of Cups (Heritage), Queen of Wands (Country woman), 6 of Wands (Servant)
I think hard work is needed, and a lot of understanding and helpfulness. The Queen is looking away from the Heritage, but it firmly backs her up. It looks like the basics are there already, so I just need to work things up from there.

Where's my client?2 of Coins (Embarrassment), 10 of Swords (Tears), Queen of Coins (Brunette) Hm, I hope she's all right. Perhaps, she got confused about the time. Or, maybe, I did. Talk about "confused thoughts". Update: I did confuse the time. Yikes.

What's my niche in creativity?
Rest, 3 of Coins (Noble), 2 of Swords (Friendship)
There are a lot of personal emotions and stories that I'd like to express, and I think it's the right path. Also, skill is very important plus doing this together with someone. I haven't thought of that before, but it makes sense. Group creativity is nothing like doing it alone. And the topic of creating bonds is very resonant with me, promoting values that somehow got lost in the overwhelming adoration of 'tragic love'.

A simple cross for 'where do we go from here'.
Temple Struck by the Lightning/Tower Magician 10 of Swords (Tears) Knight of Wands (Departure) 6 of Coins (the present) 10 of Swords + Knight of Wands signify the ending of the current phase and my uncertain feelings about it. Yes, it's tough, and there's a lot to let go of. I don't like the Temple in my head: it's a sign of wrong mentality, I'm ignoring the present (6 of Coins) and focusing on the 'pauper's worldview'. Magician looking at 4 of Cups (Boredom) pretty much sums up my current issue: I know I can do a lot, almost anything, but nothing really interests me to the point of actually trying. Is it the Temple again? Could be. 'The fear of failure', but more importantly, also, 'the fear of success'. How can I overcome the Temple mentality?
(Ace of Coins - Perfect contentment) King of Cups (Blond man), Monk/Hermit, 10 of Coins (Home) First, focusing on good material things. Really good ones. And then, methodically, bringing them around, 'building the temple of my home'. But not necessarily at the present location. Yikes, I did get more than I bargained for with this deck.

For today: (7 of Swords - Hope) Page of Coins (Brown-haired boy), Knight of Swords (Military), Human and Quadrupeds (Trip)
I might find new opportunities for traveling if I make some effort. I need to keep up the optimism and keep an eye on my goals.

What can this place offer?
Strength, 9 of Wands (Delay), 7 of Wands (Negotiations)
It'll require quite a bit of effort, I suppose. It'll take some time to get familiar with things. As for what it can offer, it looks like I can get new contacts and be exposed to lots of new people.

For today:
Current situation - 5 of Cups (Heritage)
Current actions/attitude - 8 of Swords (Criticism)
Better actions/attitude - Wheel of Fortune
Couldn't be more appropriate. We're currently dealing with the things and issues surrounding a relative's passing away, quite literally sifting through the heritage. I'm not very fond of the whole deal, but according to the cards, it would be a good idea to relax and let the currents of fate do their thing. I'm sure this is all for the best, I just need to see and seize the opportunities.
