Crowley’s 777, roughly based on the Picatrix description, gives us a great image to work with for Gemini decan 1: “A beautiful woman with her two horses.” TWO: Gemini. HORSES: Jupiter, ruler of the decan. Some inspiration for this illustration was also drawn from Ibn Ezra, who says that the beautiful woman is “standing in […]
This is Part II to the Decan Walk post for the third decan of Taurus and the Seven of Disks, introduced in Part I. As of today we are about 85% through this decan. Though the Seven of Disks is called “Success Unfulfilled” or “Failure,” there have been no real failures to report as of […]
Taurus decan 3, in which warm and loving Venus is frustrated by cold indifferent Saturn…”Phase I, in which Doris gets her oats.” The image described in Crowley’s 777 for Taurus decan 3 is a challenging one: “A swarthy man with white lashes, his body elephantine with long legs; with him, a horse, a stag, and […]
This is the Part II update for the Taurus 2 decan which began with the prior post. This decan has been really great so far, and it is only halfway through. We found this statue above in a pile of composted leaves at the start of the decan. I think it is Joseph holding lilies […]
Sun has crossed over into Taurus Decan 2. The decan is ruled by the Moon, which is exalted in Taurus. There is also an influence of the Sun, as a six, and Venus, ruler of the sign. Overall a pleasant combination, resulting in the Six of Disks, Lord of Material Success. It’s Beltane Eve, tomorrow […]
Telos Tarot of 777 Five of Disks, Taurus 1 decan New Moon in Taurus 1 today, so thought I’d jot down some quick notes for Part II of the Taurus 1 decan which started here, how it is going, reflections, etc. We are about three-quarters through the decan, give or take. It has been quite […]
The Five of Disks, Worry, first decan of Taurus, from Telos Tarot of 777. Magical image of the decan in 777 A woman with long and beautiful hair, clad in flame-coloured robes. The Sun just entered the first decan of Taurus (April 20th this year). True to form, for me the first decan of Taurus, […]
This is a update, Part II of decan Aries 3. But also we begin on something that was done as an experiment for the Aries 2 decan, but the effects have become noticeable during Aries 3 decan. So in Aries 2, I had wanted to test out the Three-fold seed spell on some nasturtium plants, […]
Today the Sun entered the third decan of Aries, in tarot the Four of Wands, known as the Lord of Completion, shown above as the original artwork from the Telos Tarot of 777. The magical description of the decan in 777 reads: A restless man in scarlet robes, with golden bracelets on his hands and […]
Almost through the middle decan of Aries 2 now, and today the Sun is at 19 degrees of Aries, which is the exact degree of its exaltation. This has been a very busy period here. I grow several big gardens each year, and this decan is around six weeks out from the last frost date […]
