Tarot Card for the Week of 12-30-12

The tarot cards hold special meanings, warnings, characteristics and actions that may need to be taken in order to change your course in life. Keep in mind that some aspects are changeable and some are not. It is all up to you. With the Fool Card as the tarot card for the week of 12-30-12, notice the scene depicted in the card. The fool, who is a dreamer, is looking up with confidence, however, he is unaware of the cliff he is about to fall off over. The cliff symbolizes his journey and the pitfalls he may encounter before reaching his goals. He represents change and new beginnings. For you during the coming week, have you thought through some of the changes and choices you are wanting to make in your life? Are you being practical about your expectations of the future? Is your ego and desire for material items getting in the way of your spirituality? Are you making your own choices or are you taking advice from others because it is easier that way? Be careful and aware this week of the consequences that will occur because of your decisions. At the end of the week, you decide if the Fool fell in the upright or reversed position for you.

 

MAJOR ARCANA, NUMBER ZERO

ASTROLOGICAL SIGN or PLANET: URANUS

 

UPRIGHT:
The fool card refers to a jester, not to someone who is foolish. It represents a dreamer, an idealist. The Fool desires to do great things, but is often unaware of just how difficult the process is. He must always be very careful of the choices he makes, remembering that knowledge is his ally. This card often symbolizes a new beginning, unrestrained optimism, spontaneity and curiosity. It is time to examine all options carefully, before making decisions in your life.

 

Although the Fool may well indicate a lack of experience or a grasp of life?s pitfalls, it is equally true that his lack of experience leads him to believe that all things are possible, which can bring even impossible goals within his reach. From exploring new horizons in life to experiencing a new phase, the Fool card also symbolizes letting life take its course, as well as the negative implications of having to come to terms with the current condition one?s own life is in.

 

REVERSED:
In the reversed position, the card can signify risk taking, bad choices or decision making, hesitation and apathetic behavior. Your own vanity may get in your way. There is an overwhelming fear of the future. You may have a cynical outlook or reluctance and hesitancy. Do not take any risks or make snap decisions at this time. You may also be in possible danger.

It is all up to you. With the Hermit card as the tarot card for the week of 12-9-12, it shows up at a very appropriate time of the year.

Hermit reminds you to reflect on what the holidays mean to you or maybe how you can help others throughout the season. Others are willing to give a lot of free advice at this time of year, but you may be better served to find the answers you seek within yourself. You may benefit from some solitude at a tranquil spot. Beware of feelings of rejection, loneliness or being unwanted. If you let your ego get in the way, you may find yourself acting very foolish. Also, don’t be surprised if there is a cancellation or postponement of plans. At the end of the week, you decide if the Hermit card appeared in the upright or reversed position for you.? ?

 

 

MAJOR ARCANA NUMBER 9

ASTROLOGICAL SIGN or PLANET: VIRGO, MERCURY

 

UPRIGHT:
The Hermit card, Major Arcana, denotes a need to have some space between yourself and the every day hustle and bustle of a busy world. It is necessary for the Hermit to retreat. Happiness for the Hermit requires seclusion, freedom from material wants and time for intense introspection. The answers cannot be found in the physical world. The truths he seeks are internal and spiritual. The Hermit is not arrogant or egotistical. His compassion is used to help others on their path. The distraction of a well-developed social life can only impede his quest for personal truths. Although not anything remotely resembling an extrovert, the Hermit does need to share time with others so that he can learn, teach, guide or be guided. The Hermit?s time spent with people depletes his energy quickly. This is a time that you may want to meditate, reevaluate the direction your life is taking and further develop your own spirituality.

 

REVERSED:
In the reversed position, the Hermit card signifies loneliness, self-pity, immaturity and acting hastily without thinking. It may indicate that you or someone you know is claiming to know more than they really do and is boasting to be the expert. You may be living in the past and refusing to look at your current situation and make changes. Perhaps you have isolated yourself to an extreme and you may be feeling very alone. Do not become so self-absorbed that you isolate yourself from your loved ones. On the other hand, you might have such an exaggerated fear of loneliness, that you are staying in an unhealthy relationship to avoid the emptiness. The card may also be an indication that you have set aside all the spiritual knowledge you have or that you have lost your spiritual self. Also, there is a lack of accepting the consequences of your behavior. This card may be asking if you are getting the best advice available from someone or are you being too arrogant to listen to those who might help you. You have become inflexible. Are you taking responsibility for your own actions or are you blaming the consequences on others? This may be a time to step up to the plate and face reality.
