Tarot... (Post 1 of ?) (page 2)

Hey Moe, check your e-mail. It's important

MrMoe

I will be going home in literally 2 minutes from work... so I will answer you all then. But, for now, wanted to answer SYN and the number 5...

Number 5 in tarot is all about loss and hardship, so I assume this is not waht she means... Things are never quite as they seem...

Here are a few things the number 5 can mean:

Five is symbolic of the wounds Jesus received on the cross. By derivation, it is the number of sacrifice.

OR

The physical elements, the celestial bodies and the zodiacal signs.

With all of this said, I think I need to do a bit more research when I get home...

Hugs and Kisses,

Moe

Poem bit T. S. Eliot ~

You lay upon your back, and waited; You dozed, and watched the night revealing The thousand sordid images Of which your soul was constituted; They flickered against the ceiling. And when all the world came back And the light crept up between the shutters, And you heard the sparrows in the gutters...

SYN

Hmm, well it had a good meaning when I looked it up. Plus, the more important card is The Lovers, right?

MissyMoesGhost

SYN -- Well, done more resarch and this is what I have found on the number 5 in regards to numberology:

Number 5 in Numberology

The senses; the pentagram; the elements plus akasha; a Goddess number.
The number five is the number of man. It represents the five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste & touch; the five fingers of the human hand, & the five appendages; the two arms, two legs and the head It also represents the four elements of the number four plus Spirit, which makes up five and all life, which is represented by the pentagram.

Now, here is the number 5 tarot card meanings along with the Lovers meaning.

Tarot ~ Hierophant 5

The Hierophant represents such official learning, especially in groups. A Hierophant is someone who interprets secret knowledge. Balance and conformity are the goals of the Hierophant, and neither positive nor negative is emphasized - only tradition matters. In extreme cases, this can indeed have very negative effects (as Galileo found out) but in most cases having some tradition to follow is beneficial. The traditions and ceremonies of the church, such as taking marital vows. This card can also represnt gateways to higher consciousness reached in a ritualized way, listening to your inner teacher and manifestation.

Tarot ~ Lovers Card 6

Partners, union, relationships.

The man represents the conscious mind and the woman represents the subconscious mind. The stuggle between sacred love and profane harmony. Refers to love, relationships and marraige. Sexual urge and desire. The Lovers card is not just about love and sexuality; it has several meanings which are all related to the duality expressed in the image of the card. The image of the two lovers holding hands or intertwined is a powerful symbol for the harmonious union of two beings, but it also stands for choices.

The Lovers is predominantly a card of the emotions, and it often portrays love that is divinely blessed, either by Cupid, an angel, or by God Himself. This image shows the man looking at the woman, who in turn looks at the divine figure above them both. The man cannot see the angel, and he must trust the woman to see it for him. Often, the Lovers will refer to a relationship when it appears in a reading, and when it does, that relationship will be a perfect expression of the love between two people.

Wow, Interesting, I chose Justice Athena

:The Justice card often appears when there is a need to take a more detached viewpoint of a troublesome situation. Imagine yourself as wise as Athena and look at it. What do you see? What should you do? Are you being fair to yourself and those around you?

:Alternately, Justice suggests frustration with bureaucracies or organizations, an impatience with snarled red tape. The appearance of this card shows that this is a temporary situation. Worry not--you will be able to defend yourself; reasonable ears will hear and justice will be done

MoeJoJoJo -- Nice nick by the way, my daughter LOVES the Power Puff Girls and of course I am quite partial to Moe...

Ok, still say I don't put a whole lotta faith in online readings, but what the heck... There are 2 websites that can get pretty dang close, but still nothing like a REAL reading...

JUSTICE - 11

Since the Major Arcana do not apply directly to physical life, it must follow that Justice does not always apply to the laws made by mankind. Justice typically refers to the immutable laws of the Universe, the invisible principles that keep everything flowing forward smoothly through infinite causal chains. These are laws that cannot be violated; only enforced. And the sword of Justice, double-edged as always, is ready to mete out punishment for those who have wronged, and to reward those who have done good deeds.

From the law of cause and order develops the law of Karma, showing that all your actions will return to you eventually. They will be modified slightly, and they are often strengthened over time, but the lesson is still the same. As you sow, so shall you reap. Before Justice, you have to answer for all your actions, right and wrong.

Indeed, Justice teaches the fairest yet cruelest lesson of all because, like in the suit of Swords, her blade has a double edge. You do not get what you expect, or even what you want - you get what you deserve. If you deserve good things then they are awarded, without ceremony or congratulation. If you deserve punishment then it is given with neither compassion nor mockery. You simply get back what you have made for yourself. And since you cannot change your actions once they have been made, if you want good things to happen you must be constantly making choices that will lead to those good things. You can be a saint or a demon - it is your choice.

When Justice appears, it should be taken as a stern reminder that the deeds of the past form the foundation for the events of the present and the future. If, in the past, you did something that you have been feeling guilty about, now may be the day when you have to answer for your deeds. If you did a deed you felt was worthy of reward, perhaps that reward will arrive. Especially when the Justice card is around, mind your actions and make sure you don't do anything you might regret later. Justice often appears to warn you that she will meet you again soon if you stay on your current path. Whether this is good or not remains yours to decide.

Despite the fact that it rarely represents the decisions of judges, this card can sometimes personify the attitude of a good judge. You may wish to take on this attitude to solve a problem in your life.

Justice

Kisses,

Moe
