| The Ladder |
by Crystal
Did you know that there's a ladder
That spans the world around,
That links us all from this place to next,
One hand up, one hand stretched down.
We lean to climb above ourselves,
And reach the hand above.
We stretch to reach the hand below
And help them up and watch them grow.
We circle the globe and hold it true,
This circle made up of me and you.
And sometimes soon we will all step up,
And link anew with those above.
But still we lean, and stretch below
And lend our hands to those we know,
And lift them up and help them find
The peace and knowledge of a questing mind.

| Wisdom of The Horse | Look into my eyes and we will learn more about each other than you ever thought possible. Did you know that horses are one of the most psychic and sentient beings on this planet? Did you know that they can literally feel and see our emotions? This is how a horse communicates, they read feelings and smell emotions from afar so that they know whether to ready for fight or flight or freeze.... They can communicate these feelings to the whole herd so that it moves as one to safety... Using this unique ability horses can mimic and react to human emotions and so give us a valuable insight into how we are all feeling...

| | The Tarot | What is Tarot?
Many people get confused over what is and what isn't tarot. A true tarot deck has 78 cards. These are divided into 22 Major Arcana cards, and 22 Minor Arcana cards. Arcana means 'secret' and the major arcana can show major secrets about our lives.
They are shuffled and then dealt in different layouts and spreads to form a reading which is then interpreted by the reader and can give answer questions, valuable guidance and insight into our lives.
Many people are wary of the tarot, and who can blame them when faced with cards that have names such as The Tower and The Devil and Death? Contrary to popular belief, these cards are not negative or evil. The Death card rarely means death but instead can show change and an end to something or time to move on. The Devil can show our deeper side, the part of us we keep hidden, and The Tower may indicate troubles and too much energy welling up that needs to be listened to.
Oracle decks usually have fewer cards than the tarot and quite often have message written on them with the meaning of that card and so are very easy to learn and use to give readings. Angel cards are very popular and can give a sunnioer optimistic reading that is gentle and supportive. Crystal cards can help with which crystal to choose each day. Animal cards can help us to link into our animal guides and totems.

| Which Deck? | Many people find it hard to choose their first tarot deck, so I wanted to write a bit about how to choose your first deck, which decks might be a better choice than others and give everyone a head start.
One of the most famous decks is called The 'Rider Waite' or to be more accurate the 'Rider Waite Smith'. The publisher is Rider, designer was Arthur Edward Waite, and the artist is Pamela Colman Smith. It was first published in December 1909, 100 Years ago! and has been reprinted many times, and can now be found as the Universal Waite or the Radiant, or Golden Waite deck. The Rider Waite Smith deck was possibly the first tarot deck to change the tradition surrounding the minor arcana cards from being a plain card showing just 6 wands or 2 swords or 5 cups etc, to full blown colour pictures of scenes, thus making it much easier to interpret without specialist knowledge. The pictures have been updated and re-coloured in many decks and this coupled withthe easy to interpret pictures is one of the main reasons that it is still used today by so many tarot teachers and readers.
For our purposes the other main deck is The Book of Thoth or The Thoth Tarot, that was designed by Aleister Crowley using the artist Lady Frieda Harris to paint the cards. This deck was published posthumously in 1969 and some editions have 3 Magus (Magician) cards making a total of 80 cards.

| Alone | The
Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot Deck
First Published in December 1909 this deck is one hundred years old this year. Below is a beautiful but sad poem by 'Pixie' Colman Smith, the artist of the deck.
AloneAlone and in the midst of men,
Alone 'mid hills and vallies fair;
Alone upon a ship at sea;
Alone - alone, and everywhere.
O many folk I see and know,
So kind they are I scarce can tell,
But now alone on land and sea,
In spite of all I'm left to dwell.
In cities large -in country lane,
Around the world - 'tis all the same;
Across the sea from shore to shore.
Alone - alone, for evermore.
Pamela Colman-Smith
(from The Green Sheaf, issue 4, 1903) |
