Tarot Card Of The Month: January 2025, Knight of Wands

 


 Insight, Quick action, Quick thinking, Travel  Inspiration and foresight

Element: Fire

Zodiac Signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius 

Mars goes retrograde in January

Welcome to January 2025 Tarot card of the month and a brand new year.

January's energy is fast, enthusiastic and quick thinking mercurial energy combined with the element of fire and Aries energy, which is dynamic action.  We see flashes of insight and communication to kick of the month. There is also explosive energy involved for January, I feel cold steel  as in weapons here, this also covers naval vessels in the news.  January has a strong military energy, as we know this is to be expected from here on in. 

Trump hits the ground running and ideas may be only half formed. January's energy is all fired up, as they say and youth crime is highlighted. There are challenging aspects politically, in business  and finance for January and communication needs to be addressed clearly. 

Capricorn rules the start of January, and the ruling planet of Capricorn is Saturn, the teacher (restricting energy, its effects are slow and long lasting) discipline and leadership. There are two cardinal signs here which adds power to the mix Aries and Capricorn, so this is pointing to leadership issues. 

Capricorn is the ruler of the  10th house of the zodiac, and 10th house is about your reputation and public life. Aquarius being the ruling sign for  the second half of January and the ruling planet is Uranus, representing the freedom urge, which covers  the future, yet the knight on the card is facing left which is looking to the past. So this is something from the past being brought into the current world circumstances. Which is a political issue returning to public awareness. I do feel that a challenge is being issued on a global leadership level. Aquarius is the ruler of the 11th house of the zodiac and is about friendships.

Military power as I said is part of the theme for January with Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Palestine, China/ Taiwan and the waters in Houthi conflict zones. The US will be up against anyone that doesn't agree with them. This includes faction fighting within the US government that strongly disagree with what is proposed. 

Children are highlighted for January so please keep an eye on your children, especially for accidents, going missing, getting lost, youth violence and murders committed by youths. Keep an eye on children near water too. The energy of Uranus is sudden and unexpected (which can be violent) so please watch your children like a hawke including teenagers getting into danger. I also connect poverty and war  this warning for children.

Angry young men are definitely highlighted with violence and murder, so you need to talk to your kids, it's too late when the police get involved. How to deal with violent youth will be covered by the media though I do not see a decent outcome to crime prevention and sensible sentencing for violent crime. 

2025 is a transformative year in many ways, there is a strong spiritual and religious energy for the year ahead. Focus and forward thinking and action is a must to transform the world into a more positive place. That though will take many years to achieve. 

The card shows a clear blue sky, no clouds or luminaries are present. This means no clouded thinking and the road ahead is clearly visible. There are disruptive energies afoot from the Eastern hemisphere to the Western hemisphere indicated. This is political and emotional energy which is a volatile combination and not what we need for communication and peaceful understanding. Please think things through very carefully and choose your words wisely because there is no room for error. Hot Mars energy is messing the communication channels.

Facts and only facts is the only way to examine all that takes place this month. There are deliberate destabilising attempts being employed with the deliberate attempt to sabotage hopes of peace.

Do not accept what is mere  hearsay, especially in the media and even from the Trump camp. Political factions are keen on causing deliberate destabilisation to sow confusion among ordinary people to keep the masses divided. It is wise to sit back and wait for more information rather than react without the full facts and the truth.    

Hearts and minds and being manipulated during January and people are being played for suckers. Hot fiery tempers are not helpful, they just add fuel to the fire. So leave well alone, step back and wait, you will be glad in the long run or you may just end up in court. 

More protests are highlighted in January, again I stress  people are being manipulated. Ask yourself who benefits from this disruptive behaviour? Look behind the smokescreen. Revelations will shock and astound so please be very careful. 

Some people have a need for adventure in January, inspiring them to get outdoors and traveling. Mountain climbing may be popular though care must be taken for sudden changes in the weather like heavy snowfalls, strong winds, heavy rain etc. In Australia, or other hot countries factor in the heat affecting you and make sure you have plenty drinking water with you and block-out sun cream.You may find yourself trapped on a mountain, so check the weather beforehand and keep monitoring the weather while you are doing outdoor activities in the countryside. If possible carry a distress beacon and let your loved ones know exactly where you are going and when you expect to be home. Any delays, then phone and keep loved ones updated. Make sure that you have a full charge and phone credit too. 

I wish everyone a safe and peaceful 2025

Blessings and warm and fuzzy hugs 🤗

Tarot Card of the Month: December 2024, 8 of Cups

 


Number 8: Some meanings for this month are, adjustments, complexity, acknowledging error, reality, results of victory and challenges, efficiency, extension (agreements and timeline) movement, regulation, redistribute, redirection.

The number 8 astrologically speaking is about endings and transformations, money including inheritance or other people’s money, death (liberation of the soul), sex, regeneration, taxes, partner’s resources. The 8th house is ruled by the sign of Scorpio, which is a water sign and the planet Pluto, which is responsible for breaking down and rebuilding. Pluto has a 12 to13 year cycle. 

Element is Water 

Mercury goes retrograde on 25 November to  15th December. 

Welcome to the last TCOM for 2024, which is a number 8 year and the last card is also a number 8. 

Looking at the card we see the sky is clear yet the sky is dim with the moon partially covering the sun. This shows us there is some illusion happening in December. It is out with the old and in with the new. 

December is charged with emotional energy, as is the times that we are currently experiencing, which will be for a long time to come. Individually this card is about finding one's self by looking inwards and examining our feelings, questioning our life direction and even our spiritual beliefs, political beliefs, wrong versus right. Acknowledging the shadow self and making life changing decisions.

So  this card tells me, we will see people looking for understanding of themselves, and what is happening around them. Do they fit in with the crowd, family values, spiritual or religious beliefs etc.

Emotions are highlighted again in December globally, clearer thinking is essential and removing illusion and deception relating to issues that cloud one's judgement and thinking   

December is about transformation, endings and new beginnings, foreign lands, deaths, rebirth, money, and communication on all levels. So pay attention to what is being said, what you read, what you say. Don't make ambiguous  statements, or say things that can be misunderstood or taken the wrong way. Clarity of communication is a must, as is clarity of thought and removing illusions that cloud our judgement and thinking on many issues is in the spotlight. Care is also needed in how we react to the news, in regards to religion, politics, belief systems and our sub conscious programing. 

Things will come to the surface emotionally (the moon) that will be challenging to accept, acknowledge and deal with. Honesty is the best policy in such matters. Nobody is perfect as we all make mistakes. But do we really learn from the mistakes? It is advisable to keep emotions in check this month due to the high emotional energy combined with deep seated emotions that rise to the surface. 

Support may  not always be available for you, so you may have to rely on your own emotional reserves. It is time to look into one's heart and see what is really there. 

Jumping from one situation to another is part of the December energy. Travelling long distance is indicated, including people moving from one nation to another, due to fears of conflict and war increasing. These people are seeking sanctuary, but where will they find it? Not everyone is welcoming to strangers on their soil or doorstep. Instability and insecurity are driving factors in this along with poor decisions by governments. 

I hear the words, battle lines are drawn, this relates to the US, UK and France mostly. I do feel the UK is singled out emotionally in December. Public anger, political upheaval and money problems are centered around England, in the south of England especially.  Protests, new arrivals to the country (legal and illegal) and government indifference towards the ordinary people drives this unrest. Starmer has sown division within his party, which makes the public look back to the Torries. However neither party is better than the other. Meanwhile the social divide is increasing.

The US is getting ready for action as Trump prepares to take office. This is not a smooth transition and something nasty is just around the corner, currently lurking in the shadows.  I do feel a downfall is imminent politically speaking and betrayal is in the air. Can the government head this storm off? 

This has a feeling like something or someone crossing the water and on the shores of the US, under the cloak of darkness unseen and unexpected.  This is about leadership, hearts and minds. A political "ally" going from his country to the UK, to the US. There are deep emotional convictions involved with this man. This feels like Zelensky of Ukraine. 

This is to shore up defence, but there a hint of  illusion or deception here. I also feel that Trump is getting ready to do something that will divide the US.  China meanwhile is on guard watching how things play out in Ukraine but won't show their hand. They are too busy in their own back yard with Taiwan and the South China Seas with naval  exercises and trying to build up buddies to team up with. Xi is doing the rounds to see who is on his team. There will be swings in his allies camp, jumping between China and the US. These nations are afraid that the US and Australia cannot protect them, and factoring in the length of time that it takes for the military to arrive to help them. 

I do feel something military is happening around water throughout December, (South China Seas, and a middle Eastern region) I hear the word Shoal or shoal of

Looking at the man in the card, I notice what looks like smoke next to the figure's left foot. Which makes me feel that it could be a target near the western coastline ( England?) The target looks like it has been bombed or burned. The ground where the figure is standing looks like the south west of England.

The figure himself looks to be on a mission of some sort, both for himself and a country. Seeking help and higher ground and asking for sanctuary, this again feels like Zelensky. The question is will he get his sanctuary? That all depends on the deal that's struck. Either way he has to deal with Trump. 

As I look at the cups stacked up in the foreground, I observe the gap between the cups on the top row. Wiggle room! That's a very big gap here to slip through, not to mention either side of the top row.  Freedom of movement, thought and enlightenment. This is a choice that is available should a person look inwards and examine the truth of any matter on their mind. It also shows political wiggle room for adjustments.

For business, this card indicates goods being redirected, redistributed (aid?) Transportation of goods sitting at docks or distribution centers. 

I wish everyone a lovely Christmas season and all the very best for the New Year to come. Take care of your loved ones and do not take un necessary risks.

Warm and Fuzzy hugs to everyone wherever you live

Alex

20 October, 2024

Tarot Card of the Month: November 2024, The Page of Cups

 


                              Romance, Imagination, Fantasy, Intellect, Emotions

Can you believe it, it's almost November already and the cold weather in the northern hemisphere will have begun already. In the southern hemisphere it is warming up and rain is back on the radar.

The charming Page of Cups greets us with his youthfulness, pride and a romantic heart this month. He may be a tad naïve at times but that is part of his charm. He is a dreamy sort of chap and likes to please others with his charm.  He gazes at the cup in his hand and notices the fish popping up to surprise him. 

That little fishy though alludes to the sign of Pisces which is the ruler of the 12 house of the zodiac and also ruled by the planet Neptune. Keep an eye on that Neptune energy though. While it all seems dreamy and romantic, there are other powers involved. 

Neptune is famous for its illusionary abilities, so the Page must keep himself grounded in reality and common sense. Not letting his heart rule his head, which is often the case with youthful inexperience.

This card is a gentle reminder for everyone for the month of November. It is advisable to examine things in a cool and collective manner, remaining detached from the issue rather than let our emotions rule our heads. Please heed this warning as there is a higher chance of being gullible this month in all forms of communication, that includes the written or printed word. So be careful about what you read and take as the truth. Remember the highly deceptive power of the planet Neptune.

Expect more news connected with water, the seas, oceans and lakes etc. Neptune rules liquids of all sorts and liquid comes in 3 forms, ice, steam (fog, vapour)  and liquid. Maritime issues will be prominent all November. As will drug and alcohol issues and unfortunately mental health issues. 

Bear in mind the Super full moon is on Friday 15th November. This full moon is called the Beaver full moon, and it will be quite large. Let's hope it is a cloudless night so we get a good look at it.

The  energy is transformative so change is afoot big time. Try to avoid political issues as they tend to be inflammatory at present. We will see more Naval and military conflicts on and around water in November. Drownings as possible at sea and in water in general, so please do not take risks and be extremely careful. 

Romance is in the air in November along with engagements and births, how lovely is that. 

I do feel that people engaging in spiritual practices need to be very careful, please be mindful not to get swept up in cults or taken in by charlatans and false or misleading teachings. It may be worthwhile doing a bit or research on the subject and also listen to your own intuition. What sits with one person may not sit right with you. Read reviews on spiritual philosophy  and stick with the well respected authors or you may well be disappointed or led in the wrong direction. Only to have to do a backtrack in your spiritual beliefs and studies. I have been there myself and learned to be more discerning. 

Please stay safe wherever you live in this world and take care of your loved ones.

Blessings and warm and fuzzy hugs

Alex

22 September, 2024

Tarot Card of the Month: October 2024, The Hermit

 


                                  Introspection, Guidance, Searching, Solitude, Wisdom, Education 

 Some meanings of the number 9 are initiation, completeness, male energy, aggression, pregnancy

Astrologically the number 9 covers the 9th House of the zodiac, Which is Long distance travel; as in overseas, higher education, religion, spirituality, the higher mind, consciousness, the law and in-laws

Astrologically the 9th house is ruled by Sagittarius and the planet Jupiter (expansion).


The Hermit is a wise old man depicted with his lantern of reason in his right hand (male energy is the right hand side of the human body) and his cloak of protective mantle of self possession, it also alludes to secrecy.  In his left hand is his staff representing the everlasting forces of nature, life, faith, strength, comfort and to lean on in hard times.  The number 9 vibrates to the planet Mars. Though it is also connected to the planet Mercury and the zodiac sign of Virgo.

As we look at the card we see the white colour under the Hermit's feet, which symbolises purity. Notice the black squiggly line at his feet, this is a snake and represents the Kundalini rising up from the base chakra, thus the snake represents spiritual energy. 

Now as I get in to the card of the month for October 2024, there are things that I need to point out. October is a volatile month with very sensitive energy, so please be very careful with what you say publicly and especially online. The energy this month is like a powder keg and it won't take much to ignite this restless energy. There is a need for fairness and transparency in regards to the Ukraine/Russia war. Leadership is uneven and next to useless, the EU is pushing Ukraine to wrap things up to move on to the next phase of rebuilding Ukraine. This is more about money than anything else and definitely not helping the public. More like big business lining their pockets and the enormous amount of money spent by the west is like water, easy come, easy go. 

There will still be ongoing problems with Ukraine and rebuilding may not start for another year or two, with another freezing winter on the way again. The Ukrainian government will not be happy with the deals set out by the EU and NATO, and this will expose the harsh  realities of truth that the western people will suddenly see that they have been mislead in their opinions of this terrible war. More is to come by Christmas and the western public will have had enough (not the fault of Ukrainian people), as they realise that they have been misled on some crucial points and they will not be happy. 

I also feel there will be a division with European people happening; as people have lost all faith in their leaders to tell the truth and also the refugee crisis impact on Europe as a whole. Factor in woke and left wing views.

I see the US at a flashpoint, not just on home soil but in the Middle East and the Asian Pacific.

The Hermit card is about seeking answers, solutions and finding one's way in the darkness or the great unknown in the current world circumstances. The Hermit has his staff to support him and his lantern of reason to illuminate his path and is reasoning which also covers his spiritual reasoning, which is vital for this month. There is a heavy air of mystery and deception over the month of October, be warned! 

The Hermit is walking on very unsteady ground here and if he misses his footing he could be injured or worse, not seeing the cliff before him and tumble. October is a precarious month and there is definitely no turning back now.  This is a journey humanity is on be it a spiritual one or a temporal (physical world) journey. October calls for critical thinking and insight at all levels.  It would seem our collective world leaders are short sighted and have their collective heads down looking in the dark for a solution. They need to be thinking long term plans not short term. Leave nothing to chance and put plans in place now.

Only small baby steps will be made this month, but there is a warning to be very careful and think of the long  term ramifications for the entire world. The general public of the world are rightly worried about the current world leaders, when it comes to the cost of living not being under control, nor the homeless crisis and the global refugee crisis with thousands of people on the move constantly. Then there is the threat of terrorism rising to a new level currently. 

Education is in the news in regards to the Universities not being safe places for many students on campus. This must be improved quickly and no disruption to student studies or safety. The Hermit card also covers education and lost items, leaving no stone unturned until one finds what they are looking for. 

Travel is highlighted again in October, heed the warnings set our by your government; and do not travel to places that are either not safe or where you could be trapped due to natural disasters, conflict or even running out of money. Make sure that you have the right travel insurance to cover you wherever you are going and factor in medical coverage and accommodation in the instance of being trapped overseas due to unforeseen circumstances. If you do not have enough money to survive on if you are forced to stay, then avoid traveling overseas.  

People are definitely on the move in October for one reason or another. Factor in mass protests and riots. These situations feel connected to Europe and the US mostly. Please stay very vigilant in October and DO NOT take any risks especially if traveling. Check your travel insurance, ask the right questions about what it covers and doesn't cover. Do not travel without insurance. 

Tensions in the Middle East are like a powder keg and are ready to explode. Understandably people are very frightened, so please listen to official warnings and do not go over there if you can avoid it. This will add to the the chaotic situation and remember there is limited medical assistance that you may put pressure on. The people there need their medical resources to live, and there are no spare medicines. 

I do feel earthquakes are a high possibility for October given the seismic activity recently, check online at GeoScience Australia  https://www.ga.gov.au/  or where ever you live in the world. 

Heavy rain is also indicated for the month in Europe and then will move to a big freeze possibly in November/December in parts of Europe, factor in Poland here. 

Public opinion is swinging like a pendulum in October and I again stress, be very careful. Things  can be taken out of context and things will get ugly. This is the effect of Jupiter and Pluto. Do remember that Pluto is in the sign of Aquarius from now until 2044 and it ain't pretty. 

Religious conflicts will be extremely highlighted this month. The world does not need this and I see the gap widening between East and West. I do not see a cap being put on this any time soon either. We do not need this negativity in our lives. Have we learned absolutely nothing from 2 world wars and a nuclear bomb? No, we haven't! 

I do not think world leaders are really capable or inclined to want to stop this runaway train wreck. There would have been a solution by now if they cared instead of wasting tax money on nonsense. This will come back on these leaders with the general public globally, as they feel they are being disregarded.

This is a huge mistake by western leaders, as this negative energy is building up within the public who demand answers. Answers are short on the ground and these leaders are deliberately avoiding taking their responsibility  for their actions. They had better check their footing because this may well backfire on these elected leaders.

The takeaway message for the entire human race is also, check your footing, just like the Hermit. 

Think first, check the path ahead. If it's dangerous to continue on this trajectory then you must find an alternative path to avoid disaster. 

On a positive note this month looks rather fertile, so do not be surprised to find yourself pregnant or hear of a pregnancy.  How sweet is that? This reminds me of the old saying; If you can't be good be careful and if you cant be careful buy a pram. 

Blessings to everyone and Warm and Fuzzy Hugs






Alex

22 August, 2024

Tarot Card of the Month: September 2024, The 9 of Cups

 


                              Element: Water, Zodiac Sign: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces 

                       Planet: Jupiter, Season: Autumn/Fall Cardinal direction: West

                     Gender: Female 

                         Spiritual, Wish fulfillment, Satisfaction, Sensual Pleasures

First I just want to jump in to the colours and symbols before doing the actual card.

Yellow, covers intellect, joy, happiness, confidence brightness and light in is positive symbolism,

negatively it is jealousy and cowardice. 

Blue, The heart chakra, healing, cool intellect, calmness, spirituality, peace, fidelity, truth, 

Grey, Spirituality, neutrality

The number 9 meanings some of which are limitation, strength, prudence, culmination, completion, idealism, temporary stability,  astral, consciousness. 

Emotionally 9's are calm, melancholy, satisfied or lonely

Reversed 9's are lacking in discipline, and self awareness , dependency, hostility, inner wisdom, humane, compassionate, non physical gain.  

The man sits front and center of the card feeling rather pleased with himself and his results. A labour of love perhaps. Behind him are 9 cups in a row symbolising his attainments. They sit on a blue cloth, but one must enquire what is the blue cloth concealing? Is something to be unveiled to the public in September? It could be but the man is waiting until the time is right (October?).

September is the 9th month of the year and marks the end of summer in the Northern hemisphere and the end of winter in the Southern hemisphere. The 22 September is the Equinox  to be precise for the Southern hemisphere. Virgo rules the first half of the month and is ruled by Venus, then we glide into Libra which is ruled by Mercury. Mercury goes direct from the 28th August after being in retrograde.

May I point out that Virgo rules the 6th house of the Zodiac and  health and work and is very organized and industrious, where Libra rules the 7th house of relationships and partnerships, the ruling  planet is Mercury.  

So expect health related issues to be in the news in September. As I look at the card, I see its a bright and cheerful card and cups are generally about love and happiness. The man on the card sure looks pleased as punch does he not. His red hat tells us he is very intelligent, passional about his work  and of his deeds.  This man is ambitious and has the drive to succeed. 

I notice the yellow and blue symbolise Ukraine again, as we saw them cross the border and into Russia in August. Who would have expected that in August? The same colours also represent the EU. The Ukrainian troops feel confident with their results and perhaps we are seeing a closer end to this terrible war. Putin is now in panic mode as he did not expect this to happen. I do not see the politicians and the heads of the Russian military being in a good mood because Putin will be in a rage over this and will do something stupid. 

Ukraine has the support of the West/NATO and armed to the teeth to do the job, there is no backing down yet. Russia will have to fight on to save face. This is seen as a major embarrassment on a global scale. I do feel that we are closer to seeing an end to this war than we are with the Israel-Palestine war.  I think that war will go in for a few years. That being because Iran is behind the scenes funding terrorists to attack US and Western interests. That ain't going to end well for anyone. 

Looking back at the blue cloth beneath the 9 cups, I am again wondering what is hidden, what is it that we need to know? That smug little man in the foreground has a secret.  Implying that something is happening in September. However it may not come to light until October. This is a political thing, and it could be connected to the US elections in November and Ukraine. 

There is an air of authority and superiority here and some truth will be revealed in September, I feel the second half of the month. So it is wise to pay attention to the news this month, as this is something big and very important involving the military and big business

France will pick a new leader, but not everyone will be impressed, this feels like another left leaning individual. 

Looking at the 9 cups lined up, keep your eyes on the middle one, above the man's head. Something shifts to center stage for an event, but not for long. A wild card situation will unfold  as a surprise, which I feel is taking place within America. Someone least expected comes to the front, I hear the words "shades of grey" with this. This is a very high profile man and some will laugh at this situation but not for long. 

I saw Robert Kennedy Jr's face, but he is out of the running and would not be suitable in world politics.

Now looking elsewhere, contracts are being made with the military and big corporations as I already pointed out. Which seems to be taking place in a hurry, the feeling is that many countries are trying to build up their militaries' in a hurry.

There will be more ongoing problems with immigration and refugees in the news, that of course will last for many years. There are travel changes at short notice in September, especially for international and overseas travel.  

Freight and haulage is also involved, rail transportation is connected to getting goods delivered on time.

Notice the little white blob above the cup third from the end; on the right hand side? This is a deliberate mark not a printing error. To me it reminds me of a communion wafer above the cup as if it is some sort of ritual or offering. Perhaps a sacrifice of something to come as it does have a religious feeling to it.

Actually the mans clothes look like robes, and not something worn by a manual worker or a peasant. One would expect such clothes on a member of the clergy or some sort of spiritual celebration. The man on the card is not a manual laborer, he is an educated man. His hat and its colour indicate this too.

The plumes on his hat also reflect this as a quick mind like Mercury, the winged messenger. This card also  signifies the element of water, so it is emotional energy too. Jupiter rules this card which also sub rules Pisces and Cancer, so it's all nicely tied in together.

The key word for Jupiter is expansion, so it's go big or go home. Jupiter rules wealth, leisure time, big business, growth and prosperity. It also covers long distance travel (9th house of the Zodiac). Jupiter is the judge and the lawmaker (9th house) but it is also a helper. The planets actions are orderly and beneficial to health and healing. We may expect some good news in  health matters  in September and perhaps that includes mental health. Though Jupiter is not the planet for mental health. 

Do expect good news with finances and perhaps a lucky streak winning some money. 

I wish everyone well for September and please stay positive no matter what is happening.

Warm and Fuzzy hugs

Tarot Card of the Month: August 2024, 10 of Wands

 


Struggles, being over extended, buckling under pressure, driven to succeed, attainment, originality, creative, knowledgeable 

This card rules Aries, Sagittarius and Leo Astrologically the card relates to the 9th House

Planet: Saturn, the Teacher or great malefic. Ruler of the 9th House of Philosophy, Religion, the higher mind/Superconscious, higher education. It covers long trips such as overseas travel. 

A lone person struggling with too much, he can't see where he is going and his head is facing downwards. Meaning he cannot see what is in front of him and sure to have an accident due to over extending himself. Tripping himself and dropping all his wands.

Notice there is one wand that looks to be touching the ground directly in front of him, which he needs to be aware of. To trip up will have a domino effect and upset his plans. Wands can be seen as something manifesting, coming from the non physical into the physical, this could be a thought coming to fruition in the physical world. In metaphysics, first there is thought which then manifests into physical reality in action or anything even illness because everything carries an energy vibration or signature. However here we are seeing energy in motion as actions driven to succeed in power, politics, political agendas and education mainly. It is original and creative energy.

The month of August is going to be a very busy month globally. Not just with the Olympics going on in France, but many world governments will be taking  action. Plans coming to fruition, political power struggles, intrigues and ideologies clash. Then there is academic struggles in August especially for those seeking higher education and exam results.  Factor in political issues and agendas pushed in educational settings such as universities.

August is a month to be vigilant, do not take on too much otherwise you will end up with a disaster. Keep it simple and manageable.  My guides are telling me to keep an eye on spending too, because there may be a shocker of a power bill or other large bills for some people. So hold off spending until you have paid your bills or you will be sorry. 

Mercury goes Retrograde on 5 August to 28 August just to make things a bit more spicy. Which affects communication of all sorts including words, intelect, reasoning abilities, technology (think the internet as it is part of the communication system),  transportation of people and goods. Mercury's actions are quick, uncertain and can be volatile.  Mercury covers travel, especially short trips (3rd house ruler). 

This is  Murphy's law in action, anything that could go wrong, will go wrong.😂

There is a clear blue sky in this card; which shows there is no clouded judgment, it's all in the open so to speak. This is not a happy openness though, it is conflicts of opinions, beliefs, action, war etc, because this Tarot card is ruled by Saturn (The Teacher or great Malefic) Saturn represents the urge for safety and security. Which aligns with the  9th House of the Zodiac which is also ruled by Sagittarius. Therefore please be mindful with religious differences and philosophies and higher learning settings. Don't poke the bear.

Canada will be in the news in August as the people are unhappy, so expect protests. I see littered streets with what looks like scrunched up newspapers, as the paper is black and white. Though I am not sure if this is in Canada. France as we know is in turmoil and I do not see this issue with the government settled until close to the end of August. 

The Greens look like they are being pushed to the sidelines in August as people wake up to their destructive antics. including their negative effect on other political parties such as labour/ ALP Australian Labor Party. I do not see this being resolved. Times are changing fast and the public are extremely wary of politicians. 

Africa descends further into chaos that no one seems to be capable of putting a lid on. Nor is it in their interests to put a lid on this situation. That old daemon Money and Power is behind the reluctance of course. China has been the latest country to plunder the continent in modern times. 

Russia will up their game in August by pushing the west, but China will be very cautious  with this because they do not want to jeopardise their own agendas. Same old, same old! 

More spies will come crawling out of the woodwork in August and getting caught. 

Turning back to the image in the card, I notice the man holds the 10 wands in an awkward  way. The wands are held showing most of them at the top and not evenly balanced at the bottom. 

Thus, top heavy like too much power at the top and little below. Is the lower end hidden power behind what is seen publicly? Too many chiefs and not enough Indians as the saying goes. 

The man is facing the right which implies the future. Though this card  also covers past, present and future too. This is aggressive energy here too, it's me first and self serving. Not good with Mercury retrograde biting you on the ass. 

What is the main goal in August? Politics and power, absolute power; driving political change. Notice that one wand touching the ground. There is a single important drive here, everything depends on this one factor. One main power, one main goal to be achieved. 

The card feels very political for August, no doubt about it. And after seeing how July has turned out this is understandable. There has been so much violence, including domestic violence, high crime, poverty, war and political upheaval driving unrest around the world. 

I feel a big name in politics will resign. This feels like a female politician in Europe. She has light coloured hair and is connected to the EU or UN. I am getting pulled to France and Germany with this.

I feel she is offered something too good to refuse. France will have its problems drag on as it seeks a new leader and this could perhaps bring about a new vote. France is now weakened and unstable (volatile) This of course was a deliberate act and action needs to be taken to plug this vacuum quickly before things get worse. The French people are not going to be tolerant for much longer. There is a strong similarity with France and the US with political factions trying to destroy both nations. 

Looking at world events, we see the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, the power seems to be way out of control due to very poor leadership. More focus and adjustment is needed throughout politics, business and everyday life needs. Which seems to be lacking in the respective leaders. 

Remember that bad boy planet Pluto is affecting everything too and its disruptive power will be here to stay until 2044. Pluto in Aquarius is not a happy situation it brings out the worst of humanity,  

Uranus (the freedom urge) the planet that rules Aquarius is humanitarian, scientific and is  known for sudden and unexpected events that are often violent. It is utopian and egotistical, it rules electricity, aeroplanes/ aviation, earthquakes and provides insight into nature's functions.  It is humanitarian and futuristic too and rules inventions. Remember too that Uranus is a breaker of traditions, so adding Pluto into the mix you can bet we will be in for a rough time.

Pluto is known for destroying and reforming  and fusion. Transformation is its thing.

Pluto governs amongst many things, the underworld, it rules the masses, subversion, waste, nuclear power and weapons. It rules obsessions coercion, disappearances, kidnappings. Pluto governs that which was hidden and exposes it, and also things that have been developed in secret.  It also covers dictatorships. An important point to remember is Pluto's actions are slow and deliberate and Pluto spends 12 to 13 years in each zodiac sign or house.   

Whatever happens now has long term effects so please keep that in mind. When the Genie is out of the bottle it ain't going back in.

I wish everyone all the very best and warm and fuzzy hugs

Blessings

Alex

Tarot Card of the Month: July 2024, Ace of Pentacles

 

 

                         Planets: Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo  Element: Earth


July is an interesting month with the world going through a series of different transformations . THis card shows a very grounding month and of course the card is represented by the element of earth. New ideas and opportunities are indicated for July. The expression grabbing the ball and running with it comes to mind as I study the card. This covers world events as well and world leaders   grabbing opportunities and running with it.

Luck is a big factor here politically especially with the elections in some countries like the UK and France. We know it's goodbye to Sunak in the UK but I feel the Macron of France will get back in by the skin of his teeth with a reduced amount of seats in parliament. People are afraid of any possibility of far right politicians and won't risk their vote. 

Africa goes from bad to worse with conflict and hunger, which is a terrible human tragedy that never ends. Businesses have big opportunities in July as there will be new business agreements, profits will be made and a lot of luck  is guaranteed. 

I hear the word, tomatoes and I feel they will skyrocket in July.Not a good sign for people trying to eat healthy. The ace in the middle of the card tells me two things, one there is a lot of money around this month and two it's will be a scorcher in parts of Europe still and other countries such as the US, parts of Asia and then the weather will turn late August. 

There are plenty of opportunities in July fore making money, and employment. The Houthis' and other like minded  individuals will be stepping up their action, they seem well armed and mean business. The west need to act on this a bit faster and they need to arm up a bit more to keep on top of the situation.I feel they do not use enough hardwear so to speak to stop the attacks. Yes there will be an escalation as it is a long drawn out conflict. The Houthis' are very determined and are well supplied. 

I am drawn to the mountains in the card in side the arched hedge, which signifies a long road ahead with conflicts globally and also the financial situation connected to this ongoing conflict. However the archwaya also alludes to good things for those that are prepared to stretch out for higher success in their careers and securing their future. 

There is more movement of people indicated and some of this is to do with finding employment including students joining the workforce after completing their studies. Mainly in the northern hemisphere and a slight boost to the employment figures. 

I also see young muslim women in this completion of studies and entering the workforce in areas such as academic fields including  medicine and public service and public relations. Expect trade start ups and offering new futures for some lucky young people. As you can see July is a month of opportunities. So grab them as soon as they pop up. 

Please be very mindful of scams and bogus job offers that seem too good to be true. What is offered is not what it seems, so please read the fine print as they say. I get a strong feeling of sleight of hand tactics targeting vulnerable people such as refugees being tricked into things where they are being exploited. So please do a background check before making a decision with a job offer or money scams.

People are also seeking peace during these uncertain times and need to feel safe and grounded in their lives. 

Sadly Gaza is not going to slow down anytime soon. I see the red cross and the red crescent wringing their hands in despair. Food and medicine are being diverted by crooks again. 

There is also a big divide between people in the west  versus people in the east. It's a very sad situation where people that have done nothing wrong yet are put through suffering in different countries. 


Please look after your families and loved ones and lets pray for a peaceful solution that is workable for everyone fairly.

Blessings, and warm and fuzzy hugs people. Have a wonderful weekend.

Alex 







24 May, 2024

Tarot card of the month: June 2024, 8 of Cups

 


Welcome to the Tarot Card of the month, June 2024. I hope everyone in the northern hemisphere has a lovely summer wherever you live. In Australia and New Zealand we are into the chilly winter weather until September and spring returns, brrrr. 🐧🐧

As I look over the card, I am drawn to the Sun eclipsing the Moon symbolising male energy which is active and aggressive energy and the element of fire dominating the feminine Moon energy which is passive, intuitive and the element of water. Add heat to water and it boils and you get steam and vapor.
The cups represent the summer season.

The sky in this card is clear, not a cloud in sight, the moon gives way to daylight.  Revealing all to the world. But this is an emotional energy here, and a deep emotional and psychological situation is being conveyed to us. As I examine this card I notice the tide seems to be out and the figure on the card is able to step across the rocks in the water to get to the other side. He is on a solitary journey retreating from the world. However there is more here than meets the eye though, and we are watching a transformation take place. 

The solitary figure could be in distress and seeking help, whether from his higher self, his inner light  or seeking a wise person to guide him. He is looking to the future as he is on the right hand side of the card and again that is symbolic of active male energy. This is male versus female energy, is not about men or women. It is an energy of polarities, as we all have a male side and a female side to us energetically and metaphysically speaking. The figure on the card has reached part of his journey, as he has moved from one side of the water to the other via the rocks he used as stepping stones.

He has support at his back which is the cups stacked up in the foreground, notice the yellow colour of the ground and the cups, this is a positive energy and seems like he has luck on his side. This figure needs reassurance though because he is unsure of this support. Is it strong enough to protect him? Can he rely on this support at his back? He doesn't know if these cups or people have his back like they say. Hence the apprehension and the figure is not stopping to rest, instead he keeps walking and there are obstacles in his path that he must negotiate, to get to the higher ground and safety.

It's just perception though, but still symbolic of only one possibility. Unless one stretches  past the right hand side rock and sails out through an estuary or bay to anywhere one wants. To freedom and a new beginning perhaps. 

In the card that higher ground on the right hand side is a cave where the figure seeks solitude to think and find a solution to his problems. In reality it feels like a political figure going to a large and important building to seek assistance and wisdom. Looking back at the scene in the card one could also say this looks like a big circle looping back to the beginning again. 

To me this says Zelinsky is feeling bewildered and is still seeking help to win this war where no-one seems to make any lasting headway in this war. Mr Zelensky is going cap in hand again and again asking the western allies for more money and weapons to fend off Russia. He cannot keep going like this, there has to be an end in sight.  Luckily the number 8 in this card does signify endings and new beginnings. But will the US, Britain and others come to the rescue again?

The timing could not be any worse with elections looming in the US and now Britain and there are no positive results in two years. This will plunge these nations deeper into debt and a cycle of pumping money in one direction 

Now looking at the cups stacked up in the foreground. There are two levels. There are 5 on the bottom and then 3 on the top, but notice 2 cups are sitting on the left  and 1 is sitting on the right. The top layer to me signifies the US and Britain and on the other side is Russia. There seems more support on the left side or Western side with 3 allies on the bottom row. Not necessarily 5 Eyes but a significant amount of power. On the right is Russia, with Iran and China and nobody wants' this to escalate, meaning steps will be taken to find a solution and transition to cease hostilities. I don't see this ending this year, but we will see light at the end of tunnel as there are gaps in the cards in two spots  indicating  that a breakthrough is going to happen perhaps in 5 to 8 months from now.

An interesting thing about this card is, it covers the dates 19/2 to 29/2 (Russia invaded Ukraine on 24/2/22) and the sign of Pisces. So let's hope that it will be over by February ‘25.That also makes the time from the war breaking out to its ending 3 years in total. I did make a post  a few years ago, before this happened that there would be a conflict or event would last 2 or 3 years, so let's hope this is it.

I don't see all of Ukraine staying in his hands, I feel an enclave will want to be independent of Ukraine. The problem with that is it is a valuable industrial region that the country makes its money from. I don't see Zelensky parting with that easily if at all. 
Surprises are in store for France with new laws passed. This is the start of a new look France and not everyone is happy about that.

The war office in the UK is in the news, and Australia's Anthony Albanese will have a minor health issue, it could be his appendix. This is nothing to worry about  and he will be fine in no time at all.

As I look at the card again I notice the black rocks sticking up out of the water on the left hand side. I feel this is connected to the ongoing issues with China in the South China Seas, nudging even closer to 
other countries borders.
More dirty tricks are to come, and if you look closely at the card, between the man's foot and the cup you will see a small elongated black shape similar to a submarine or a boat. This little glyph or spec looks like a vessel being intercepted, however I do not see this as a trigger for conflict.

 As yet it is still a cat and mouse game being played until Taiwan makes a decisive move some time next year. Taiwan asserting its sovereignty will enrage China  to a dangerous move and we will find the stakes being raised higher by China.   

We will see mothers making their voices heard in June over food insecurity, homelessness and poverty.
The plight of women and children will also be highlighted, not just in Gaza but places such as Africa and other places of suffering.  I see a woman with dark long hair, with a high public profile making a public speech on this issue. I see a woman like Michelle Obama giving the speech on tv. 
Sweden and Norway are also in the news for political reasons.


Thank you for taking the time to read my TCOM, please stay safe wherever you live.

Warm and fuzzy hugs
Alex

More of tarot card of the month for May 2024 (part 2)

 Hi,

I had a constant stream of interruptions yesterday when doing my TCOM. https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2024/04/tarot-card-of-month-may-2024-3-of.html

So I wanted to have another look at the TCOM. I did that just now at 12.00pm and it was the Ace of Pentacles that came up, it seems to fit well with what I had written yesterday afternoon. 

Now I have absolutely no intention of doing more that one card for the TCOM every month yesterday and today is an exception. 


Money, Opportunities, Faith and Fate, Drugs, Illusions Deceptions

 A Golden pathway into the future (sitting on the R/H/S of the card) A fertile time to make money is indicated including bitcoin. 
The west is full of drugs and illusion and seems to be under a hypnotic spell of sorts, and people are unable to see reality right in front of them. 
The hand of fate comes through the cloud and it is enormous and overly exaggerated in the card , it is overwhelming in fact. A dazzling show of wealth is displayed though its source of origin is hidden from view by the large cloud. 

As I write this France pops into my head, highlighted in business deals for the month of May. Macron is getting too big for his boots and perhaps someone will tie his boot laces to trip him up. Watch this space for more on Macron in the coming weeks. 
New beginnings and new opportunities for business are indicated for May and there is an urgency in this. We are finally through Mercury retrograde from April, and May is in a phase of playing catchup. May will be a fast month so beware and be warned. 

Everyone is looking for a place in the sun or in the spotlight this month. Is this a wise move though?    
For some yes , but for others, NO. For some it is possible embarrassment, especially celebrities and  those in public life. Please choose your words carefully or you may be very embarrassed publicly. 

The hand of fate can move many ways remember. Also the hand in this card is exaggerated in size as is the pentacle in its grasp. Temptation in May is too enticing for some of us.

May is Taurus and Gemini energy, Taurus is ruled by Venus and they rule the 2nd house of the Zodiac. This covers the first 2 weeks of May. Taurus is an earth and fixed sign and the element of Earth.

The second half of May is the dualistic Air sign of Gemini. Ruled by the planet Mercury. and both rule the 3rd house of the Zodiac.
 So we have stability and versatility working here this month. 

the 2nd house of the Zodiac's key word s here are freedom, earnings, finance and resources. the other house ruled by Venus is the 6th house which covers health, work and service given. both of these are houses of substance. 

The 3rd house covers communication, short trips, the conscious mind, siblings and early education. The 3rd house is a house of relationships. 

So if we add this to the other TCOM for May we can see the communication theme is mentioned again. Mercury being the key here, and it is in forward motion or goes direct from the 26th April. That Taurean energy while it is earthy, fixed it can be stubborn too. 

There is an opportunity for correction if wisdom prevails financially speaking as there is plenty money around. There is stability, but that is down to how sensible those in business and government are. Now that Mercury retrograde is over, there is a rush to make up for lost time. To rush is foolish because mistakes can, or will  be made.

Drugs are highlighted in western countries in May and especially anything affecting the mind. Whether it is medicinal medications or addiction to recreational drugs. 

Now notice the imbalance of the foreground, the archway and the path are off to the L/H/S not centred. It tells me it is future facing and active or dominant energy. The mountains through the archway are obstacles to overcome. The path is bright yellow, just like the yellow brick road in the wizard of Oz. 

Now look at the lilies, is this another deception or illusion? One needs to be wise as to what's on offer here because that larger than life hand coming out of the cloud of mystery could be pure illusion. I personally wouldn't take the risk. I would sit back and watch what unfolds. But the energy of this card is highly tempting. So this is where we must listen to our intuition and not act in haste. This is not, if you snooze you lose. This could be a scam or a trick, so be warned when it comes to making money. it's a straight out scam or con job.

The same applies to geopolitical situations, because someone will be the loser. Think about the second half of May which is ruled by Gemini. A dual Air sign ruled by Mercury, so watch all forms of communication whether it is on a personal level, business or geopolitical. 

Iran will be playing games in May so please stay vigilant. Don't poke the bear and do not take side here, because all is not as it seems o the surface. Politically no government is innocent. Martyrs are being sought out so pay attention to illusions and deceptions  in communication. 

The pentacle in the card has a dual meaning, money and spirit. What happens if the hand suddenly releases the grip on the pentacle? The pentacle comes crashing down. Do you run to catch it or  do you wait to see what happens regardless of your actions? This is a no win situation anyway, so who can say for sure? Because it is illusion or slight of hand in a materialistic form.

Now despite this being and Ace which is generally a good card, the Aces can have a negative meaning. Spiritually speaking, it could be seen as a further fall for humanity in a materialistic world or reality.

 Some of us will choose spirituality above all else. Even though most people do not fully understand what spirituality fully entails. I sure don't otherwise I would not be here. This is not to be confused with the religions of our world or reality. Though spiritual elements are woven into all religions and philosophies. We are spiritual beings with spiritual soul fires; having a physical world experience, and we are challenged to rise above our current state of consciousness in this reality. Which is damned near impossible, like an illusionary game or challenge against humanity collectively. 

Which is something that we must ponder again and again on our journey through life. Slowly and steadily stopping and reflecting at every step of the journey. Wow, this is a truly challenging experience par excellence is it not?  We become more philosophical as we get older, and some of us realise that it is best to sit things out and just observe the world in motion. Tending to our families, those we love and our fur babies. We cannot solve all the problems on earth because that task is unachievable.  But we can  change ourselves and quietly lead by positive example. Thus there is a positive spin to some of us that are willing to take the spiritual route to evolution. Perception is our key. 

What an interesting transformation has just unfolded, the duality in every situation. Clearly demonstrating that the perception of our world is such a tricky illusion. The tarot never ceases to amaze and transform. 

Warm and fuzzy hugs and have a wonderful weekend where every you live

Note:  Lilies stand for purity, innocence, joy and spirituality however the negative meaning of lilies can mean death. Lilies are toxic to humans and animals.

19 April, 2024

Tarot Card of the Month: May 2024, 3 of Pentacles

 



Season,  Spring   Sign, Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn  Element, Earth  Cardinal point,  East 

Key words: Teamwork, Unity, Confidence, Partnerships

Number 3: Action, ResultsCooperation, Results of previous actions, Creative, Trinity 

Reversed meaning of number 3: Inaction, Non working, Uncooperative 

May opens with the 3 of Pentacles, a young man demonstrates his skills and abilities to his patrons. He is extremely skilled, successful and competent. Showing his patrons that their investment in his education has borne fruit. The apprentice is above the mundane things of the world, he is working at an elevated level with his skills, he doesn’t mix with the ordinary people, he is above them and is well aware of the fact. Notice he is also wearing boots which also tells us that he is above the ordinary people. The ground is unclean and he doesn’t get his feet dirty like a peasant who toils in the field. 

This month’s card is about diplomacy, skill, communication and showing one’s skills and abilities to the world. This card is also interesting when we look at it from a position of world events. Ideologies and partnerships are covered by this card. Nations, corporations, organisations in agreement including the UN, Charities and other aid agencies. This is not an easy month for international relations and diplomacy is going to be difficult as the horse has bolted already. Three world leaders are called into action here and they must be very careful not to escalate tension’s which already have begun to spill over. How things pan out right now is an indication of what we are all globally facing from now on. 

The tarot card shows three people inside a church which represents authority and in some cases benevolence. It also represents structure and stability of society, politics and powerful organisations in dialogue. The Pentacles represent money and spirit, here though it’s about money as in spare no expense in money for war, defence and business. 

Time is of the essence right now for planning, which feels like contingency plans. Some of these plans will be very urgent, as in just out of the blue responses to counter threats and attacks. Things will continue to worsen and I feel December will be crucial in escalation because “someone” will not back down. 

Travel will again be interrupted especially air travel, which is pretty much a given at present. More problems with import and export in zones of conflict, again is just part of the ongoing conflicts. This will boost the price of goods as expected. 

We need a cooling off of tensions between Israel and Iran otherwise the whole region will be in chaos. To be honest I don’t see a cooling off because Israel and Iran have no intentions of cooling off. 

Japan may step in to assist in negotiations to defuse tensions in the pacific region. However Japan wants to be seen as a mediator rather than taking a defensive stance due to their past history. Japan does not want to upset anyone and prefers a humanitarian role.

I hear Chicago and the airport (O’Hare)  in particular, something is happening in or around the airport. I see police involved, this could be as in  negotiation. The tarot card also tells me that negotiation is the primary requirement in May, otherwise things may escalate unintentionally. 

Look at the middle of the card, there are two paths right underneath the pentacles, meaning things can go either way depending on the actions taken. This can also allude to two different factions at play. This needs to be taken seriously because if one takes the wrong path we can be in deep trouble so extreme care must be taken. Plans are afoot here for  sudden changes that benefit two countries in particular.

However another nation is directing the way in which things are going. Actually this particular nation is dictating to the other two nations which way things are going. This is how it is and it’s not negotiable. That nation is Israel, telling the US and the UK how it is, which has the potential to go pear shaped. 

Who is factoring in the innocent lives of millions of innocent civilians here? Irrelevant to what country these civilians live in, just because you were born in a particular country doesn’t make you the enemy. No, but you could well be the innocent victim or collateral. Who is there to defend us innocent civilians of the world and all of the innocent animals of the world? 

There is the possibility of regime change in Iran due to this conflict, but not straight away. I feel the US will, install their preferred leader in Iran at some stage. This tarot card serves as a warning to us of the dangers we face, there is no room for error. This is the time for serious dialogue to prevent the situation going into a deep tailspin that we can’t put the breaks on. 

Politically speaking this card lumps us under one roof with three world leaders calling the shots. A call for unity, except one leader sees himself as being above everyone else. How does that work? It doesn’t and never will. Hedonism is failure and ordinary citizens suffer because of big stupid egos in suits. Humanity is poised on the brink of war and two, wrongs never make a right. 

I do feel the UN will be utterly useless and a total waste of time in trying to secure a peaceful solution,  having a vested interests of their own to boot.  May also brings the WHO into focus at the same time pushing its agenda. The WHO will feel they are being pushed to the sidelines due to the current global situation and will start whining because they are being ignored. People are not in the mood for the WHO, so watch out for the WHO pushing their weight around. This is sovereignty or a medical corporate dictatorship, yet I think that enough people and politicians are now starting to waken up to the reality and will give a big No, to this fiasco. 

The UN and other aid agencies will be trying to mobilise in the Middle East in May, however there will be problems due to ongoing trust issue, conflicts and politics. One needs to ask who has the power and authority here? This feels like it will be a testing ground from here on in as to who has the actual authority and power in times of conflict. The rules are changing and are confusing around military conflict and civilian casualties. 

I hear the words “Lucky colours” and red, green and white. I don’t know what this is about, I take it as a political statement rather than ordinary lucky colours. Iran has these colours in its flag as does Palestine with its black, red, white and green. I will leave it at that because I don’t get involved in politics and especially not situations as horrible as this. 

The take away from this reading is, humanity is clearly incapable of learning lessons about war, death and suffering. There are no winners in conflict, we know that. It is better to be humane rather than having blood on one’s hands, but one must use common sense in the self defence of your home and homeland. Teamwork, communication and diplomacy are a big ask when dealing with big egos. 


I want to send my blessings to everyone right now, if we don’t come together as a spiritual species then all that can come of us is war and suffering. Your call humanity! 

Warm and fuzzy hugs 🤗 

Alex

Tarot Card Of The Month: April 2024, 2 of Wands

 

 

Sign: Aries,   Element: Fire   Season: Spring time

Wands apply to Springtime  The dates of this card are: 21 March to 31 March and also stability and the mind/intellect. Wands also cover Aries, Cancer and Sagittarius as they are fire signs

Number 2: Duality, Creativity, Parenthood, Sensitivity 

A man (leader) stands on the battlements of his castle looking out at the view in front of him. He is the master of all that he surveys, this is what he controls and in this instance he also wants to control the elements as well as the world.

The scenery before him is lush and fertile, the mountains to his right make me think of Switzerland and its rich abundant lands and lakes. The sky above is grey and the sun is hidden from view, yet despite that, the view is bright and all looks calm. 

The man holds a globe of the world in one hand, implying that he holds great power in his hand. His right hand is actually dominant, looking to the future and  masculine energy, hence his demonstration of male domination and power over the world. To me this represents the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab. The man in the card holds a wand or staff in his left hand (female energy) which is passive energy and alludes to the past.

That staff in his hand has three fresh sprigs of new growth, representing ideas and plans coming into fruition. He has a firm grip or control over this wand, the other wand to his right is fixed to the battlements. Rigid and firmly in place as we can see it is not moving, it's strong and firm. Yes there is new growth on the wand, something is bearing fruit so to speak. He has therefore mastered this task and does not feel that he has to keep his eye on it. 

As I look at the card again, I notice the positioning of the man, he stands precisely between both wands as he firmly grasps the left wand (creative energy). His gaze is fixed in one particular direction, the West. The fact that he is standing not just between the wands but also the battlements, is like standing in the middle of a portal or a doorway. This is not accidental, there are no accidental positions when reading the esoteric symbols in the Tarot. This is a powerful message conveyed to others with esoteric wisdom. The man is facing the sun, which actually illuminates the scenery even though the sky is grey. Sunlight always penetrates clouds. He is esoterically facing "the Light" as the rays hit the portal where he is standing. Darkness must give way to light.

We have just passed the Vernal Equinox on 21 March. Again we see the esoteric reference of the card.

We are sitting at the cusp of the first house of the Zodiac ruled by Aries presently (21/3 to 20/4) Which is ruled by Mars (dynamic action, leadership, power,) The first house of life, in the zodiac so this is the start of something, it is creative, so get ready for changes. By the way the WEF have a meeting on 28-29 April in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia , which is Global Collaboration, Growth and Energy Development. Not a coincidence! We are talking of people who are esoteric masters using the time wisely.

Getting back to the card, the man is grounded and focused in his position, the firm grip on that left wand implies that he has a firm hold on the West, but does he really? That remains to be seen.

Next we notice his clothing, the red hat has an edging that is mimicking a crown and rulership. The man that would be king? Red implies passion, wisdom, aggression, and hot headedness also if you like. I am pretty sure this individual is very hot headed and passionate as a leader. He is more like a leader of a group of people, an NGO, or such like. This man's feet are firmly on the ground and he has solid foundations , but with a fixation of purpose that is worrying. This is a man maintaining his power and authority to control others, make no mistake about that. 

Looking at his clothes, they appear to be bland and boring, but do not let this fool you. Firstly that earthy coloured cloak is hiding his true intentions. Cloaks are about secrecy and what is hidden, as there is secrecy at the root of his powers and purpose. 

 Under that cloak are his "working clothes" where he may blend in with everyone else unnoticed. He has work to do, so he is wearing a working and practical disguise for his skulduggery  Shades of brown represent the earth or earthiness, it may look boring and drab but it's functional for the purpose. and what goes unseen by the public. Brown is also associated with serviceability, humility as in a monks robes, it is also decay, rot, effluence 💩 and depression.  A real sexy colour for turning people off you, lol. 


Brown can be seen as drab like there is an absence of light and happiness, this man is spreading unhappiness to those beneath him in society. He represents authority and stability, lord and master  of all he surveys. Keep this in mind. 

April may seem to some as a bit slow to start, yet there is order being put in place quietly. Immigration issues and the masses are on the agenda for April and how to manage big populations including the movement of large masses.  The weather is warming up now so more people will be outdoors now. I ask you to be vigilant and mindful of your surroundings when outdoors at all times. Emotions may be volatile due to ongoing political issues and wars around the world. 

Climate protesters start up again in the northern hemisphere causing more chaos and the protests over Gaza. So people will be restless by mid April, please keep out of these protest location areas for your safety. Meanwhile the governments sit back and watch what is unfolding and gauge their response. 

BoJo pops back up in the media this month. He is still very unpopular and will remain so. Forests are in the news regarding replanting, regeneration, nature recovery and bushfire recovery strategies. Some of this may turn out to be totally a totally useless impractical exercise due to some of the planned locations. 

Defence of coastlines is a must do from here on in. If this is not started now then expect definite problems to come. Expect the left to be problematic with this to prevent sovereign nations from defending themselves as they rightly should. The left want anarchy, with absolutely no accountability on their part.

There is a hidden purpose within the climate-nature agenda that must be acknowledged. This is a hierarchy masked as helping the earth, those that work the land know how to work the land yet are  being ruled by paper "experts" that have never worked the land in their live. They know absolutely nothing about the land, nature and how to farm.

 As seen depicted on this 2 of wands card, the red cap and the brown cloak and the brown clothes under the man's cloak can be easily seen as peasants working clothes, as they symbolise he works the earth, like a farmer or a real ecologist, nature conservationists that one sees in a national park looking after the wild life and the trees, shrubs and undergrowth. 

This man signifies the corporations manipulating and controlling nature making the lives of those that know the land very difficult due to their corporate ignorance and arrogance.  Everything has a price tag that is in existence, everything has a use by date. So this is orders from the top down, importing, exporting people, goods and the economy. How to extract more bucks from nature and all life until it is no longer useful or viable. The workers reap the harvests for the corporate bosses or controllers. 

The land is not really important to these corporations, it's the revenue they rake in that matters. With this selfish school of thought areas of nature will perish because the focus is only on a quick turnaround. 

 My guides are showing me worm castings. This is something that will be attracting more home gardeners this month, perhaps worm farming will be in big demand again to assist the soil quality in your backyard vegetable gardens. So for some it may be well worthwhile investing in worm castings and wiggly worms if you have the time to invest. 

Funnily as I write this on 24 March, I realise tomorrow is a full moon and it's the worm Moon. Springtime moon for regeneration of plants and life. The Vernal equinox just being on the 21 March too. 

April's full Moon is a pink moon and it falls on the 23 of April. https://www.almanac.com/content/full-moon-april

Looking at the card again I am drawn to the mountains on the card, informing me about a mountainous country in the news in April. This feels like a South American country  where there will be instability. 

America will also be having more serious drama over the US Border issues in Texas. This is the struggle to contain the borders and the ongoing stupidity between the ill-functioning federal government versus the Texan government. People are justifiably getting upset and frightened by this chaos. Please be very careful and avoid this conflict if possible, let the authorities handle this.

I do feel the Texas government will bring in more reinforcements to help deal with this chaos. This feels like military men such a s the home guard increasing their ranks. It will be very difficult to maintain control over this situation, and it could well get much worse. 

Ukraine and Russia still battle it out and Russia is heating up the action currently. However someone is definitely plugging things outside of Russia presently to slow the munition down. I feel  it is Iran that will slow down the munitions to the front line, and will  not be giving them as much munition because they want to use this themselves in the Middle East. 

The Iranians see closer to home affairs as more important and put their weapons to use here. This will eventually cause blow back from the US of course. The time is not quite right yet for this to happen, even though the US, UK and others are  in the region fighting off the Houthi rebels. This push back will be harsh too, so expect more naval battles and more drone attacks.  I would put the time frame around 2027 for things to go to a higher level. This drone warfare is pretty much boys and their toys at present, every kid has them and want to use them. This to the great pearl of ordinary human beings that have nothing to do with conflict. 

Food prices in April in the UK and Europe come under more scrutiny. I feel a scandal over price gouging is in the pipeline, similar to what has happened in Australia. But prices will rise regardless due to different factors as well as greed. People need to be a lot more savvy when shopping buy buying non perishable foods and drains,  especially rice and past must become part of the way to stretch meals further. Eating habits must change to adapt to having less money. Go back to the early 1950's for recipes ad reinvent some with a modern twist using chili, garlic and other spices. 

New women's fashions of this spring will have a 1980's feel to them but revamped. The 80's were great fun in fashion, just ditch the big shoulder pads. 

Well there we go the card of the month is done for the next few weeks. I want to wish those that celebrate Easter next weekend a lovely snuggly Easter and those that have different celebrations a wonderful happy time too.  I just do the chocolate thing and enjoy the season 's flowers. Any excuse to stuff my face and I am there, lol.


Warm and fuzzy hugs and please pray for those  that are suffering right now, whether in a war, homelessness, illness, poverty or loneliness etc . Please also pray for all of the animals that suffer because of humanity. We can learn so much from the gentleness in nature.
