Felt like we need something lighter on the Uranus Pluto Exact 3rd square today.
I’ve drawn from the Inner Child Cards a beautiful Tarot deck transformed through Fairy Tales.
9 of swords
This card is usually considered to be a heavy card. Swords are thoughts, the mind, consciousness. 9 is the number of perfection. 9 symbolizes limits, boundaries, the end of the road.
The Inner Child card shows a boy surrounded by 9 swords. Symbolically he is imprisoned by ideas and mental constructs keeping him imprisoned. A whimsical dragon is in the forefront of the image. The Dragon symbolizes the defensive energy, pain and protection, the denial of Self. The beast is a shadow part of the Self that must be befriended, not slain, as an ally to get to the hidden treasure within, the authentic Self. Dragons always protect the gold of Self. Be aware of your self-imposed limited viewpoints and philosophy.
MEANING
Going beyond the limits of known ideas and space. Old thoughts, are ready to dissolve. Nine is completion.In Taoist symbolism the dragon is revered as a spirit that shows “the way.” All Fairy Tales and modern Myths, like Star Wars, Shrek, Avatar, etc. have powerful archetypal significance.
Be like the Star Trek crew and bravely go beyond the limits of your own outworn ideas. Seek your inner dragon and let it guide you towards a transformed vision of your future goals. Take the red pill, as in the Matrix. End your mind games.
Be willing to free your mind and self to explore exciting new visions. Dare to go where you haven’t been before.
VERY synchronous for the Uranus Pluto square. Squares produce friction, like rubbing two sticks together, their aim is to ignite a spark. Uranus is Higher consciousness, higher mind. Pluto is the shadow, the dragon, Death. Both are powerful allies. Fantastic! I love it.
Pushing barriers, planting seeds, Playing the mind guerilla, Chanting the Mantra peace on earth,
We all been playing mind games forever,
Some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil. Doing the mind guerilla, Some call it the search for the grail, Love is the answer and you know that for sure, Love is flower you got to let it, you got to let it grow,
So keep on playing those mind games together,
Faith in the future outta the now, You just can’t beat on those mind guerillas, Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind,
Yeah we’re playing those mind games forever,
Projecting our images in space and in time, Yes is the answer and you know that for sure, Yes is the surrender you got to let it, you got to let it go,”
Never mind the Harlem shake -this is the whole World shake.
We’re all feeling the intense energies of the upcoming May 20, 3rd EXACT square between Transpersonal planets URANUS + PLUTO. These 2 planets {with Saturn in Virgo opposite} personally seeded the 60’s counter culture, sex, drugs, rock n roll, eastern mysticism revolution.
Here’s how it works. Uranus entered Aries in 2010- the Arab Spring began. Pluto entered Capricorn in Oct 2008 -within a week the mortgage financial blow out happened. These are big players indeed.
Everyone born in 67-68 especially, is now having to manifest the cosmic energies that they were born to fulfill.
The world is going through its mid-life crisis. A recent volcanic eruption in Alaska has spewed ash 20,000 feet into the air, There have been more and stronger earthquakes in China, Iran.
X class Solar Flares leapt out from the Sun,this changes us electro magnetically, we mutate.
The 1st square between these 2 big change artists began June 24 2012 with the planets @ 8 degrees of Aries/Caprciron.The 2nd square was Sept 19 2012 -planets were at 6 degrees Aries/Capricorn. This 3rd square NOW had the 2 planets at 11 degrees Aries/ Capricorn with Pluto Retrograde.
The next exact square this year is Nov 1 2013 with the planets at 9 degrees Aries/Capricorn. The square dance continues till March 17, 2015 with the planets at 15 degrees Aries/ Capricorn.
If your birthday is Jan 2nd and April 2, you get the exact direct hits Cappy and Aries.
CANCER’s born July 3rd, and LIBRA’s born Oct 3rd also feel the pressure directly because you get squared by the square.
Uranus is the Lord of change, chaos, invention, innovation, pioneering, out of the box thinking, the ruler of Aquarius, Revolutions, group mind, the Internet, technological advances, individual freedoms and OCCUPY movement.
PLUTO- Lord of Death rebirth change transformation, sex, power, money, control, other people’s finances, s & m, detectives, researchers, taxes, Monsanto, secret governments etc. DArk side is fascism.
Yes feeling the energy so strongly. The Boston Marathon bombing would also be considered to be part of this applying energy pattern. One of my fave teachers Stuart Wilde suddenly- URANUS -passed away a couple of weeks ago. I keep seeing clients in major crises. Some are aware that change is necessary and good and they are scared but still willing to go for it. The one’s who are in the most pain are those that continue to blindly cling to the past. Refusing to see the truth, making martyr’s of themselves. It ain’t gonna be the same anymore and that can be very liberating. A BREATH, or rather a HURRICANE gale force of fresh air. Yes the times they are a changing and its blowin’ in the wind.
So it is your free will choice. We are all under the influence. Another manifestation of this energy would be Angelina Jolie’s recent double mastectomy as a truly Uranus in Aries- new radical technology, “heroically” standing up to Death, that is PLUTO. You see the symbolism is in everything and everywhere.
Someone I know who’s career has been floundering suddenly finds their career and finances revived. Others relationships are falling apart, they suddenly Uranus -lose their job their home.They find out their spouse has been cheating { PLuto} on them. The MONSANTO/Government issues is all Uranus- tech death seeds, robot bees, and Pluto- controlling the government secretly. We have to be careful how we use technology. Literally it is atomic energy- Uranium and Plutonium.
Yes there is danger from unexpected, chaos from Terrorists atomic weapons and the Government becoming more fascistic the dark side of Pluto. Convincing the people they need the government to watch and monitor their every move, to totally control the population. It has its high side potential and dark side potential.
Kind of a Luke Skywalker / Darth Vader/ Yoda energy for us all to live through that Archetypal story.
Embrace change
Learn to love the chaos. Growth is change and change is the very nature of the Universe, nothing is actually solid,
Be like the FOOL in the Tarot, the zero, naught, nothing, who lives in the moment, who trusts, who is open to all new experiences, who isn’t afraid to step off the cliff. The Fool is the beginning and the ending, major symbol #22. The Alpha and the Omega. Like Jesus said. The Fool is the Eternal Soul itself. Who has nothing to fear knowing itself to be eternal.
THe ancient Chinese Oracle, the I Ching is called the Book of Changes. the 64 hexagrams show all facets of life transforming from one stable line into a broken line, from masculine to feminine. The Ancient Chinese were very wise.
Use this time to the max- get rid of old clutter, old ideas about how thing are. About who you are,what is possible. Uranus urges every individual to get up off their asses and do what they feel is right for themselves and the collective. Rage against the machine. Pluto is taking apart the Old Order but the old order is tightening the screws and are more fearful than ever. I think Iceland seems to be one of the few really honest spiritual democratic countries operating.
Wake up people shake off your sleep. You can change your world,you and only you. Do you have a higher purpose? Don’t you remember who you are? That’s URANUS beckoning you. Pluto is your SOUL. Uranus and Pluto may have to give us very nasty shocks to awaken us. It’s up to us.
Beckon them ask them to come into your life as allies and Guides. Uranus likes wild and crazy offbeat out of the ordinary individuals. Pluto rules Soul someone who has listened to their soul their entire life. You want those kind of people to come guide you. Who do you admire? Oprah? an artist? a brave soul? an inventor? Steve Jobs? Banksy?

ACE of WANDS – the aces initiate, they start they have the most power, and Wands is FIRE
a spark is being lit now- listen, watch,
Wands or batons is what the suit is called, I am taking poetic license again and using an image which also represents the Ace of Wands
The Artist’s Hand by Alex Grey 1997
What new inspirations have you received? You need to begin to set them alight, ACT on them.
Start it UP.
Aces in regular playing cards Trump all else. What is the ace up your sleeve?
Come on baby light that fire.
We are feeling the Uranus Pluto square getting tighter, it will be exact May 20.
I am writing a separate longer article about that-
The friction between the planet of revolution, chaos, new inventions and Pluto in Capricorn the Plutocrats, the old hierarchical rules maker, the Old Boys Club inside you are facing off.
Rules were meant to be broken. Burn down the House.
Because Mercury flies into his own Air stream trailer Sign of GEMINI today -till May 31
it’s BYE BYE solid beefy thinking and “Ground Control to Major Tom.”
and Because the MOON ENERGY SHIFTS from Water 2 FIRE, into passionate LEO
my intuition said it’s a double shift sign change day and one of the signs is the TWINS
so let’s use ASTRO TAROT
The card is called CONJUNCTION
and I can’t get a pic of it up for you in a hurry
so I’m using poetic imagery licence as any GEMINI fast thinking person would do and use
this image
MEANING
A conjunction is when two or more planets, people, ideas, tribes, things come together,meet, occupy the same space, merge, become one, are inseparable, symbiotic,
Remember that the Tarot synchronizes the collective Unconscious’s emotions
Yesterday we had Tarot Trump #8 Justice/ Adjustment /Karma
today we also have another eight, the 8 of cups.
8’s are traditionally “difficult” complex numbers. Nearing the end of the journey of 9 which is completion.
the Thoth Tarot 8 of cups is called INDOLENCE
Its associated with SATURN in PISCES
the REALITY CHECK
Your hopes and dreams have turned sour, your pain comes from hanging on to something which is clearly no good for you. Stuck in the swamp. Martyrdom. Allowing others’ to steal your energy.
Lack of boundaries. Believing a projection, but you can’t ignore the harsh reality in the situation..
Toxic addictions, trying to control others emotionally. An abyss of despair.
THE MYTHIC TAROT says “The future cannot be manipulated. We go empty-handed into the unknown.”
Ye,s in Toronto the LEAF hockey fans are disappointed.
The Moon is in Cancer today. It’s OK to cry and move on.
I have had clients who totally mirror this card’s energy all day today.
Until we able to let go of that which is not fulfilling our highest goals
we have no space to receive anything new.
There is always hope, trust that all has happened for your highest good. Learn the Karmic lesson and move on.
May 13 I wanted to look at my trusty THOTH Tarot deck
Card # 8 ADJUSTMENT/JUSTICE/KARMA, LIBRA
INTERESTING…
Traditionally the TAROT TRUMP #8 is called STRENGTH and under the influence of LEO in most Tarot decks. It shows a woman holding open a lion’s jaws, having the strength to conquer fear and our animal instincts.
The THOTH deck has # 8 as JUSTICE, or ADJUSTMENT and is assigned to LIBRA and has STRENGTH as # 11 which is Leo ruled.
The two card are interchangable and different Tarot decks often show 8 as Strength or Justice and 11 as Justice or Strength. The Thoth deck changed the progression for metaphysical reasons.
Number 8 is wealth in China, all 8 directions on the karmic wheel and in Feng Shui.
This card shows the scales of JUSTICE or KARMA. Justice is Blind because she need to be perfectly neutral, unattached. LIBRA is an air sign. Libra is all about committed relationships.
Number 8 turned on its side is INFINITY- ETERNITY -NOW
In the ETERNAL NOW- where hangs your karma?
As my famous old teacher STUART WILDE- may he forever be wilde- said “Infinity has no future.”
We are hanging in the karmic balance. EQUANIMITY, poise, non attachment are the best ways to proceed.
MEANING and Questions
Are you feeling you are Behind the 8 ball?
Is your life, your relationships and right livelihood in balance?
How off-balance are you? To what degree? What needs to be adjusted? Where?
Are you too judgemental of yourself and others?
Seek balance, the middle path.. All sides are equal.
Aim to become like a box of delicious chocolates from Switzerland. Neutral and yummy.

Inspirational Card of the Day
comes from what else?
the MOTHERPEACE TAROT by Vicki Noble and artist Karen Vogel.

MOTHER PEACE TAROT CARD DECK
The Lovers Trump # 6 GEMINI
So synchronous that the LOVERS showed up on Mother’s day. So sweet. I love it.
It is associated with the Sign of GEMINI- duality in one.
To love, one must have an equal and opposite mirror, polarity, Yin/yang.
LOVE IS ALL. Love is all we need. Love, Love, Love.
We are in a Universal LOVERS year as 2013 reduces to #6
MEANING
Drop all you old resentments,hurt and old emotional baggage about what MOM didn’t do for you
and turn that into gratitude and joy.
MOM gave you LIFE, for you to make of it what you will. Thank her and love her for that alone.
She gave you a great gift and walked in the shadow of death to give birth to you.
Mom may not have been perfect, still she made sacrifices for you. Mom may be like Mother Mary to you, all loving giving and compassionate.
Mom is both human and the Archetype of the Universal Goddess of creation and love who constantly gives birth to everything in the universe. She is the closest you will ever get to another person. You are her. You were physically in her body from the time she was conceived in her mother’s body. You have every experience and emotion that she had inside your own cellular consciousness. Plus your own karmic story of why you chose her to be your mother. Whewh, that’s a whole book in itself.
Love your mother and honor her today and everyday.
Take some deep breaths and see your mother as the Goddess, as the perfect mother, see her real frailty, her own wounds and struggles, and love her imperfection the same way she loves yours. Know that whatever her love or perceived lack of, that she love you unconditionally.
Love our mother the EARTH as well. Everyone is born of woman, your Mom is your, and everyone’s very real, living experience of the Goddess.
May 11 Post Taurus Eclipse, we need some earth wisdom
The deck that called to me today is the Sacred Path Cards by Jamie Sams from 1991
not a Tarot deck but 44 cards of Native American wisdom
The Card is #12 THE ARROW
TRUTH AS PROTECTION
Native American shamanic teachings speak of words,thoughts and communications as arrows, or intentions- there are “light arrows” positive thoughts and “dark arrows” – negative thoughts.
The arrow is a symbol for the planet MERCURY-thoughts, communications, the “word.”
The Sun and Mercury Conjunct Today in Taurus.
This highlights the LIGHT, SOURCE and the embodied mind.
Very auspicious. Honor your inner truth.
Please share widely so that all may benefit.
MEANING
The arrow brings a time of self- examination and questions-
Am you being honest with yourself and with others?
Have you aimed straight and true in your opinions, decisions and goals?
Do you have a sense of brotherhood or Sisterhood?
Is competing keeping you from having true friends?
Do you have the courage to stop criticizing others, and myself?
Be willing to face all truths, even when they hurt.
Are you being a hypocrite? Do you walk your talk?
This card calls upon your deepest wells of strength and courage to face any enemy of truth
-the popular MEDIA, the culture itself, the Medical system, Big Pharma, Monsanto, the government
to do the right thing, to oppose corruption, OCCUPY your mind, your speech, your thoughts,your words.
and anyone, thing or entity blocking the truth from the people, the children and your self.
Be brave, trust your inner warrior or warrioress spirit.
Aim higher, telling the truth creates space for others to follow.

TELL THE TRUTH by Eric Clapton lyrics
Tell the truth. Tell me who’s been fooling you? Tell the truth. Who’s been fooling who?
There you sit there, looking so cool While the whole show is passing you by. You better come to terms with your fellow men soon, cause…
The whole world is shaking now. Can’t you feel it? A new dawn is breaking now. Can’t you see it?
It doesn’t matter just who you are, Or where you’re going or been. Open your eyes and look into your heart.
