Tarot Tuesday

Deck: Legacy of the Divine Tarot
Spread: 1 card reflection
Question: What problem can I now let go of?

Legacy of the Divine Tarot

18 The Moon - The energies of this card is of deceptions and unclear thinking. The night brings upon a veil that allows us to dream, but it also allows us to deceive ourselves. Most foolish acts occur during the night, and even more during a full moon.

Reading Overview: I have been plagued by dreams for the last few months. These dreams dive straight into my past and bring about very bad memories upon waking. The Moon is telling me that I can let this go now. It's time to move forward. My subconscious is hanging on to that past allowing me to have these dreams. To stop the dreams, I must stop deceiving myself and allow myself to heal and move on.

Sweet dreams all!

Tarot Tuesday

Deck: Legacy of the Divine Tarot
Question: General Reading
Layout: 3 card - past, present, future

Legacy of the Divine Tarot


Queen of Wands - The energies of this queen are the ability to create and nurture. She demands respect, and offers guidance in return. Reversed, these energies are blocked, limiting your abilities.

3 The Empress - The energies of this card are of the mother. She signifies growth and nurturing of all life. Reversed, these energies are blocked, leaving you at a stalling point in life.

8 of Cups - This card represents leaving the past behind and moving toward a new future. It may also represent a spiritual journey. The tentacles seem to be struggling to hold on to the old emotions, which may suggest difficulty in this movement.

Quintessential Card - the spirit of the reading - 11 Justice - The energies of this card are of a fair outcome and getting what you deserve. Two women are present, both blindfolded, giving no chance for favoritism. The outcome will come as a result to your own actions.



Reading Overview - My energies of creating, nurturing, and growth are blocked. This is a condition of both the past and the present. The only way to regain these energies is to leave the past behind and step forward. A spiritual journey could be the answer to this problem. It is quite clear that the outcome is up to me as I wade through the waters of life. I may hang on to the past and deny myself the joys of nurturing and growth, or I can let go and become whole: physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Timing of Events - First, let me say that I have not practiced much with predicting timing. So much can change in a person's life, that I don't feel particular comfortable in doing so. As I looked at these cards, I felt that the 8 of Cups was signifying an event and showing the time of its occurrence.

Using the charts available at Tarot Eon, I found that the 8 of Cups signifies February 19-28. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Legacy of the Divine Tarot by Ciro Marchetti

Legacy of the Divine Tarot 
First, I'd like to offer you the chance to view this wonderful introductory trailer. Go on, enjoy the video and come back.

Amazing! Wouldn't you say?

I've wanted this deck since the first time I saw the cards, but held back for financial reasons. I finally took the plunge.

The deck is easy to handle, the cards are of good quality, and the images are just amazing. Ciro took tarot to a new level with this deck. I can't wait to do my first reading with them. I've had them for a few weeks now, but I have the deep desire to savor the cards before shuffling and laying out a reading.

The deck comes with a wonderful companion book. It begins with a tale of how the creation came about. I can't even begin to explain the glorious journey he takes you on. It is a must read. After the journey, Ciro takes you through his thoughts about each card, along with three other contributing views.

One of the views comes from James Ricklef, who I've come to know through his blog - a very wonderful man with some great views on the tarot.

Another great man is Ciro Marchetti. I had a few questions concerning the deck and he replied promptly and was very helpful. Visit his web page and enter his world. He also has a web page devoted entirely to The Legacy of the Divine.

Soon, you will see the Divine Tarot on my Tarot Tuesday series. They will also appear in an upcoming series of my version of the Fool's Journey. I will enter each card, alongside the fool, and see what happens. I'm very excited about this and hope you will join me in my visits.

Have a great weekend!
