Karmic Tarot
15 GOVERNED BY THE DEVIL: TEMPTATION/CHALLENGE, FEARS
UPRIGHT: The love of truth and the urge for understanding push you forward into new emotional,
creative dimensions. Here is the impact of the products of your fertility on your Mental Plane. What
you have been doing based on your emotions must now pass the test of mind. INVERTED: You may
have fears related to your projections from love, or you may be completely lacking in even reasonable
concerns in these matters.
16 GOVERNED BY THE TOWER: NEXT LESSON, GRACE OF GOD
UPRIGHT: Healthy issue in your Emotional Plane, the next step in your expression/experience of
love. This could have come earlier, but it is appropriate here. This may be the child you have been
waiting for. INVERTED: This is what you must accept in your emotional/creative affairs by the end
of this next year, as purposeful and good in your Karmic Contract. It will be much more, or much
less than your heart had hoped for. Possibly, you will be infused with the urge to loosen up and
expand, or you will be encouraged to cut back and accept a slower pace for a time.
17 GOVERNED BY THE STAR: APIRATIONS OF EGO, GOALS, MAXIMUM EXPECTATIONS
UPRIGHT: The aim here is for longevity through progeny or creative issue, that is, someone, or
something, to carry on the family name. To be known for what comes from your closest loves,
relationships. All this to be accompanied by a healthy sense of contribution to a continuum, not just
historical extension of the ego. INVERTED: The same goals as above, but with far too much emphasis
on “my” children, or “my” work. This is a subversion of past and future generations to your
needs in the present. In some instances, the opposite will be the case, with a goal to reproduce, to
create, not for the self but out of a sense of duty.
18 GOVERNED BY THE MOON: ASPIRATIONS OF HEART, COMPASSION
UPRIGHT: The heart wishes to be able to create for the joy, the wonder of participating in the
cosmic dance of life. To experience the feeling of being instrumental in bringing life, a new creation,
to this earth. To be a feeling, contributing player in the eternal cycle of creativity. INVERTED:
One pitfall here is the trap of needing too much the feeling of “I made this,” or “this is mine.” A
rarer distortion of this archetype is the goal that rejects this process of new life and continuity.
19 GOVERNED BY THE SUN: MATERIAL FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: Energetic participation, fertility, are with you throughout this lifetime. Extroversion
marks your senior years. Children/grandchildren, or other youth, animals, even others of your own
generation benefit from your time and energy. INVERTED: Your later years may be more subdued
with a quieter, more reclusive environment and lifestyle. Creativity here would be inward rather
than outward. But as with all inverted cards, the complete opposite may be the case with you
possibly being even more active than in your youth.
20 GOVERNED BY JUDGEMENT: HEART’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: Your heart’s desire to bring new being into the world is your pleasure, with healthy
interaction with all that has come from you. As life ends, your surroundings are pregnant with
possibilities because of your ability to love, to create, to give and take, and your having fostered that
ability. INVERTED: Do everything in your power to see your understanding of love and creativity
passed on to your loved ones, to your fellow man, but then you must rest and let free will have its
rein. Otherwise you only exacerbate the problem.
21 GOVERNED BY THE WORLD: EGO’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: You have successfully balanced the needs of past and future generations while not
neglecting your own. Whether through your progeny or your creative legacies, you have projected
yourself through the veil into the timeless side of reality. Congratulations are in order for this most
difficult balancing act of past/present/future. INVERTED: The lessons presented in the other positions
of this reading are aimed in part at helping you achieve this balance, rather than continue a
path that will allow one or more of the generations to subvert the other(s).
