Peace of longest-night quiet.. Joy of the Sun’s return.

to all, good Solstice.  

(this, from the Touchstones:  )

XIX. The Sun.

illumination, yes ~ and also,  You as the one who illuminates.

the light that shines into corners and pushes shadows back, revealing what has been hidden.

in the physical realm ~ catalyzing light and growth.

in the unseen realm ~ a force of energy that governs movement (and orbits and gravity).

the center. certainty. (sure as the Sun!)

open ~ light ~ loving.. return of life after its absence,  return of play after rest.

always present and ever-renewing. abundant.

returning.

In March of 2014. I began writing what I came to call “touchstones” for several major arcana (trump) cards of the tarot deck I use for readings (mine is the Thoth deck, amazing and powerful stuff, that!)  

Currently, this collection of writings includes ten major arcana cards and two of the Aces, with more in-the-forming. They’re my own words, one interpretation of the cards’ essences. I allow people to draw one after a reading to keep as a message for the day or a meditation on an aspect of the Self.

Back in March I wrote what I call “touchstones” for several major arcana – trump – cards of the tarot deck, and have been allowing people to draw one to keep as a message for the day or a meditation on an aspect of our Selves.. (I use the Thoth deck, amazing and powerful stuff, that!) They’re my own words, one interpretation of the cards’ essences.  I’m posting them here, one at a time, as I add them to the  “touchstones”  page, along with a photo of the corresponding card from a version of my deck.

XXI. UNIVERSE. The Universe.
Full circle. Completion of the Fool’s journey.
the knowing that all was already present –
existing all-at-once.
return from “the great forgetting”
to “the great remembering”.
completeness, wholeness.
ALL is part of the Universe. ALL is Sacred.
sorrows have transformed into joys of Be-ing.
new journeys to anticipate ~ next level!
the Fool has transformed, and yet remains the wisest
– child-of-the-Universe –
for the Fool knows the journey begins again.
all is well, all is as it should be.
