Astrology in the Major Arcana

The late Occultist Oswald Wirth was known mostly for his renowned work revolving around Tarotology. In 1989 he created, under the guidance of de Guaita, a cartomantic Tarot consisting only of the twenty-two Major Arcana. Known as the Arcanes du Tarot kabbalistique, it followed the designs of the Tarot de Marseille closely but introduced several alterations, incorporating extant occult symbolism into the cards. The Wirth/de Guaita deck is significant in the history of the occult tarot for being the first in a long line of occult, cartomantic, and initiatory decks. He had also created an entire list, consisting of the correlations between the twenty two cards of the Major Arcana and Astrology.

A Divination for Gaia

Divin-ation can be used as a way of receiving messages from the divine (ourselves in a higher dimensional space).

Here we use a “Tarot Tree Spread” to get a reading of the state of the system for our planet, Gaia. We use only the Major Arcana from a tarot deck, shuffle them and assign them to the spheres on the Tree of Life, from bottom to top.

For this reading two different decks were used, the Rider-Waite (RW) and the Crowley-Thoth (CT). The reading was done on December 16th 2015, with the Sun in Sagittarius and the Moon in Aquarius.

The cards that were dealt and assigned to each sphere are listed as follows, with the Rider-Waite card given first:

  1. Earth: World, Tower.
  2. Moon: Magician, Art.
  3. Mercury: Death, Wheel of Fortune.
  4. Venus: Star, Star.
  5. Sun: Justice, Emperor.
  6. Mars: Strength, Fool.
  7. Jupiter: Devil, Empress.
  8. Daath: Fool, Lust (Strength).
  9. Saturn: Hierophant, Hermit.
  10. Neptune: Temperance, Hanged Man.
  11. Pluto: Wheel of Fortune, Chariot.

One of my favorite deck, especially for analytical meditation and observation, VIA TAROT – The Path of Life

by Susan Jameson & John Bonner

With this Via Tarot of high artistic standard Susan Jameson deliberately picks up the thread of the famous Thoth Tarot deck conceived by Aliester Crowley and executed by Frieda Harris. But also with regard to its content the Via Tarot, which draws on Cabbalistic, alchemistic, astrological and magical sources, continues the occult, thelemistic tradition. The explanatory booklet was written by John Bonner, secretary O.T.O. UK

with a preface by Hymenaeus Beta, Frater Superior, O.T.O.

French translator and publisher of Aleister Crowley, Collagist, Poet and Photographer, Philippe Pissier is one of the most talented artists living in France. As a joke or as a ritual his art reveals alchemical connections between comic books and magick. His own creative insight is delicate and shy, beyond all knowledge or understanding. In other words, his art seeks to express simplicity among cacophony. – See more at: http://www.leatherarchives.org/collections/art/pissier/pissier.htm#sthash.mzMe5kOR.dpuf
