CARD OF THE WEEK: June 27-July 1, 2022

 

Sanctuary

Triple Goddess Tarot

by Isha Lerner with art by Mara Friedman

June 27-July 1, 2022: Another beauty from Isha Lerner and Mara Friedman's Triple Goddess Tarot. This card, Sanctuary, represents Tarot's High Priestess and is, decidedly, a warmly appealing one.

At the same time, I don't think you want to rush up and disturb her meditation.

Better to follow her example and take time for your own tuning in. She will meet you there.

That's it. That's all you need to know from me. If you do take the time, truly devote and honor it, you'll find out whatever else you need to know.

****** 

Do you have a particular Tarot or other oracle card that you'd like to me explore and write about in the hummingwitch way?

Just email a good, clear jpg photo of your card to:

hummingwitch@gmail.com

I'll incorporate its message, one way or another, into one of these posts. Let me know if you'd prefer your submission to be anonymous.

Thanks!

CARD OF THE DAY: November 18, 2021

 

 Awakened Aphrodite

from Triple Goddess Tarot

by Isha Lerner with illustrations by Mara Friedman

 

November 18, 2021: Awakened Aphrodite gives you life!

The Life Force--within and in which you dwell--always has surprises for you. You find gifts within yourself that you did not previously recognize or understand, and you find mirrors of yourself in your environment. This lifts you and moves your forward.

This is the deep and the cosmic erotic of many variable forms and shapes--ever available, if you are perceptive and receptive.

How will you manifest this Awakened Aphodite today?

I'll end by drawing your attention to the Goddess' two pairs of arms and suggest that you:

• consider gesture as practice in your contemplation of the Life Force
  
• notice how it feels to gaze at a being who has two pairs of arms--heady and disorienting? Do you feel it in your own body? Do you find yourself shifting awareness from one pair of arms to the other so that the other appears to temporarily disappear for you?

Beginning tomorrow, we will shift to one or more new decks and see what surprises they hold! Enjoy your Thursday!

CARD OF THE DAY: November 17, 2021

 

 Ancestors

from Triple Goddess Tarot

by Isha Lerner with illustrations by Mara Friedman

 

November 17, 2021: Oh, my goodness, She tried it. She really did.

Following this morning's shuffle of the Triple Goddess deck, Flame of Surrender tried to piggyback onto another card--Ancestors. But Ancestors was the one to reach my fingertips first. 

So, with a knowing wink at this cheeky three-peat attempt by Flame of Surrender--who clearly seeks to continue guiding you deeper into the autumnal weather and mood--I present you with today's card, Ancestors.

Sharing much of the warm and gentle coloration of Flame of Surrender, this Ancient One, sitting in a lotus pose, dreams you forward. You are the flower of Her dream. You are the realization of your ancestors' dearest hopes.

So, do not doubt yourself, and do not falter. Reconnect with the dream, and be who you are meant to be. 

Are you taking time to dream in this way? Are you making time to cozy up inside your hermit's dreaming cave and bring through dreams that can create tomorrows?

Although the flowering of those dreams will surely involve and affect others, you need alone time, privacy, to do this initial receiving, conceiving and birthing work on your own.

We will have one last go-round with the Triple Goddess deck tomorrow, and I can't wait to see what She has to show us!

CARD OF THE DAY: November 16, 2021

Here we go, again!

November 16, 2021: You're not going to believe this but, when I shuffled the cards, the Triple Goddess' Flame of Surrender returned today!

I love it when cards underscore their message by showing up again in a separate random draw. Spirit says, "Are you listening? Make sure you listen this time!"

So, for today, I'm just going to direct you back (or, for some of you, for the first time) to yesterday's message. Maybe some fresh insights will emerge for you or earlier ones will clarify.

Enjoy this second visit with Flame of Surrender!

CARD OF THE DAY: November 15, 2021

Flame of Surrender

Triple Goddess Tarot 

by Isha Lerner and illustrator Mara Friedman

November 15, 2021: I want to stay with Isha Lerner and Mara Friedman's deck through this week. So, expect more beauty on the way. It's a truly gorgeous--if structurally and visually iconoclastic--Tarot deck.

Take in the tender, warm energy of Flame of Surrender and the glowing autumn leaves drifting and swirling around this goddess of transition from the overt glories of the warm months to the inward-leaning, inward-tending time of the cooler and cold months. This deity knows that, as you prepare to face the rigors of winter, you will need the sweet warmth of knowing you are loved and cared for, that your sincere, human efforts are valued, met with acceptance and grace, and amplified.
