Wobble Reading - July 10 The Wobble: Ace of Disks and The Princess of Swords. These are so visually overpowering, looking down on the viewer from an acute angle. It suggests that the wobble here is how present and pressing and overwhelming these issues seem, and also that it’s largely in the viewpoint we occupy. The Ace of Disks speaks of a focus of making a strong beginning, but more specifically, Robin Scott talks about the disk being modelled on a subway token, so it makes me think about tra...

Wobble Reading - July 8 The Wobble: Justice and The Hierophant. The tension here is between what behaviour is constrained by law and what is guided by morality. Both the justice system and religious systems lay down codes to live by, but Justice interacts with only the most extreme parts of human behaviour, those we’ve deemed far enough beyond the pale to need extrapersonal repercussion. Moral and ethical codes extend far further into our lives. The Hierophant looks at how we understand our ent...

Wobble Reading, July 7. I’ve been playing with Mindful Tarot’s daily wobble readings, and I’m finding them quick and effective - I’ve been pulling daily cards for a while, but I’m enjoying the interplay of meaning here. The idea is that there are two cards that are the “wobble” - areas in play or in tension at the present moment, and then the path, a card for how to bring them into harmony or move past, whatever motion suggested. Since I wrote the one for today up, here it is. I’m going to be...

We just watched a trailer for a restoration of an old Ringo Lam movie, which sparked me saying this: You’d have to have a maintenance person just for the death traps in this movie trailer. Death traps don’t just maintain themselves. #movies #fridaynight

Still incomplete thoughts on The Hierophant, for later: The metaphysics of gesture The Hierophant as a manifestation of the observer effect. #Tarot

The Sun Greets Us In The Morning I will never crave the sunlight the way I do at Imbolc. I’m not a fan of the heat, so eventually the sun and I will settle into a grudging detente through the summer. But now, when it had been so cold for weeks, cloudy and grey, when I have been leaving the house in darkness and coming home bare minutes before the sun sinks towards the horizon, my spirit reaches out towards the sun with such yearning. At Imbolc, the sun is up noticeably earlier in the morning,...
