<strong>Karmic</strong> <strong>Tarot</strong><br />

9 GOVERNED BY THE HERMIT: BELIEF SYSTEM; BASIS FOR DECISIONS<br />

UPRIGHT: This suggests a highly devotional nature to your search, <strong>and</strong> in the most positive sense,<br />

a method of trial <strong>and</strong> error, an experiential, sense-reactive system. “Run it up the flagpole <strong>and</strong> see if<br />

it flies.” Disciplines such as Bhakti or Tantra Yoga may be your bag. INVERTED: Devotional<br />

approaches are rooted in the Emotional Plane <strong>and</strong>, to be valid as guiding philosophy or belief<br />

system, there must be a healthy amount of mind at the helm as well, or the ship is going in circles at<br />

best, sinking at worst.<br />

10 GOVERNED BY THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE: CENTRAL MESSAGE, THEME OF READING<br />

UPRIGHT: This is an infusion, even a bombardment with the <strong>for</strong>ce of God’s love in answer to your<br />

devotion. Preparation <strong>for</strong> a kundalini experience, or the opening of the heart chakra. INVERTED:<br />

You may be bombarded with social opportunities as the walls of your box come crashing down.<br />

11 GOVERNED BY JUSTICE: STATE/CONTENT OF MIND<br />

UPRIGHT: You are intellectually involved with devotional disciplines, such as Bhakti or Tantra<br />

Yoga, or other pathwork using the heart as guide. Here the mind is yielding to the influence of heart<br />

wisdom, the intelligence also of the solar plexus. This is a poetic state of mind. INVERTED: With<br />

input from your heart, your gut reaction, you may be reversing your opinion on a subject.<br />

12 GOVERNED BY THE HANGED MAN: STATE OF EMOTIONS, SUBCONSCIOUS<br />

UPRIGHT: Here is The Hanged Man at its strongest as it sits in its home position. This is the<br />

opening of the heart chakra <strong>and</strong> any or all of the above general meanings may apply. Complete trust.<br />

Complete sacrifice. Little if anything is held back, <strong>and</strong> yet as you offer your mood you are strengthened<br />

with every drop taken. A positive, correct change of heart. A reversal or clearing of a prejudice.<br />

INVERTED: A change of heart that needs more attention. Hesitation in an aspect of opening that is<br />

slowing your progress. Closing of the heart chakra.<br />

13 GOVERNED BY DEATH: PHYSICAL SITUATION, HARD REALITY<br />

UPRIGHT: New dimensions are opening on the Physical Plane. There is an increase in opportunity<br />

in material matters. There is a deeper appreciation of the arts, of the emotional side of life,<br />

of that illusive, yet ever available thing called beauty. INVERTED: At one extreme, there may be<br />

too much going on, confusing matters as most of it has nothing to do with you. At the other<br />

extreme, there is too much closure <strong>and</strong> not enough is going on. Decrease or increase contact until<br />

things even out.<br />

14 GOVERNED BY TEMPERANCE: EMOTIONAL TEST<br />

UPRIGHT: The heart will be opening further in the near future, <strong>and</strong> you will have many emotional<br />

balls in the air at the same time. This is a chance <strong>for</strong> a breakthrough in relationships or in a creative<br />

project. A great deal of energy will be available <strong>for</strong> your use. INVERTED: A time out may be the<br />

order of the day soon.<br />

15 GOVERNED BY THE DEVIL: TEMPTATION/CHALLENGE, FEARS<br />

UPRIGHT: Here you will have to integrate input from your higher emotions into your mental<br />

package. This may be in the <strong>for</strong>m of a creative burst, or the impact of others: guides/teachers/<br />

loved ones. The smaller ego self is becoming the larger trans<strong>for</strong>med self. INVERTED: You must<br />

override your fear of openness <strong>and</strong> contact with people. It is stopping you from reaching your<br />

mental goals.<br />

16 GOVERNED BY THE TOWER: NEXT LESSON, GRACE OF GOD<br />

UPRIGHT: You are now strong enough, having learned well the efficiency of give <strong>and</strong> take. You are<br />

ready <strong>for</strong> the major shift from the predominance of taking, required on the first part of your journey,<br />

to a predominance of giving required on the second half. Many more of your vehicles are being<br />

opened by grace to participate in pathwork on a much larger scale than ever be<strong>for</strong>e. INVERTED: At<br />

first, this process may feel like it is only benefiting others, but be patient. This process benefits many<br />

others, but it is indeed <strong>for</strong> you.
