In
previous article, we looked at an easy tarot card reading method using just
22 major arcana cards, and got as far as
Wheel of Fortune. We will carry on this week with
11th card, Justice.Justice reminds us in an almost karma-like way that ultimately, life is fair and just, and our deeds have to be answered for. If you are in a moral dilemma, or are unsure which of two paths to take, expect this card to feature heavily in your readings. You may also find it if you are suffering remorse for past actions, or have done something particularly good -
deed has come back to you. You are being put on warning that no deed however small goes unnoticed, and ALL need to be paid for eventually, even is this just means accepting responsibility for your actions.
Next up, possibly
scariest and well-know of
tarot cards,
'Hanged Man'. The Hanged Man is telling us that sometimes,
only way to truly control is to set free, to let go. In readings,
Hanged Man should alert you to
fact that
best answer to a problem is not always
most obvious. On occasion,
desire for action can be counter-productive, and you must withhold from precipitous jumps. This counterintuitive reasoning has to be experienced to be understood.
The next card, card 13, is Death. Of course, it has no relation to physical death, but is associated with endings, or openings of new doorways. Great changes are often heralded by this tarot card. The end of an era can be a sad time, but you must see it for what it really is - an opportunity to grow into
next stage of
cycle. The card may also be a warning that irresistible events are about to unfold, and 'going with
flow' is
only way to keep your head above
turbulent waters. By swimming with
current, you will reach your destination faster.
Temperance is
next tarot card of
major arcana. Temperance means showing moderation and self-control. This card is often a warning that you must slow down if you are to center yourself again. While this may seem dull, even a hurricane has calmness at
center. Certain other cards reinforce
voice of Temperance, and make it doubly important that you 'reign in' your wildness and rediscover your balance, your 'wa'. If you are in
middle of a conflict,
Temperance card is a warning that you should seek
middle ground - an outright victory is impossible, and both sides will lose. In health terms, Temperance suggests
worst may be over - and better times lie ahead.
