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 […]
The Sun entered the second decan of Aries today, a Sunday, auspiciously enough, as the second decan of Aries is ruled by the Sun, which is exalted in the sign. Crowley’s magical description of the decan per 777, Succedent decan of Aries: A green-clad woman, with one leg bare from the ankle to the knee. […]
It’s that time of year! We made it through another solar cycle, arriving at the March equinox (tomorrow, March 20th) and zero degrees of Aries, the start of the zodiac in traditional Western astrology. This decan corresponds to the Two of Wands. Shown above is the Two of Wands from Telos Tarot of 777, shown […]
Making progress on painting the cards of my new deck. It’s funny, I recently was reading a thread on the TT&M tarot forum about AI art. Someone there who is using AI to create a deck was, well I guess defending it from detractors by saying that it also required a lot of work on […]
Happy Sagittarius season! My birthday decan is here, the Middle decan of Sagittarius. Happy birthday to all my fellow Sun Sagittarians! This is the time of year when, typical for Sagittarians, I start looking forward to my new solar year. It’s also a good time to review the year we are leaving behind – though […]
Tough times in Sagittarius land for this one, known as the Lord of Oppression. The fiery and Jovial Sagittarius here is oppressed and smothered by serious Saturn, ruler of the decan and also of the earthy Tens through the association with Malkuth on the Tree of Life. The magical image from 777 is quite challenging […]
I’ve been late in posting, but not late in the doing. Things are humming along and getting done in their appropriate decan. The posting bit tends to drag behind. The middle decan of Sagittarius is known in the Thoth tarot as “Strength”, or more formally in the Golden Dawn tradition as the Lord of Great […]
The first decan of Sagittarius corresponds to the tarot Eight of Wands known as the Lord of Swiftness. Sagittarius is Jupiter ruled, and there is a doubled Mercury influence as both the decan and the Eights are ruled by Mercury. The magical image description of the decan is a strange one. Per 777: “A man […]
