<strong>Karmic</strong> <strong>Tarot</strong><br />
21 GOVERNED BY THE WORLD: EGO’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION<br />
UPRIGHT: The mind is at rest as you finish up the affairs of this incarnation. This lifetime was a<br />
laboratory of efficiency. You have honored your beliefs while integrating the thoughts of others.<br />
INVERTED: Work now to be sure that the mind is not serving itself at the cost of the other Planes,<br />
nor is it at odds with the overall <strong>Karmic</strong> Contract.<br />
22/0 GOVERNED BY THE FOOL: SOUL’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION<br />
UPRIGHT: Confidence in your mind’s ability to carry the day <strong>for</strong> your heart. A trust in your rational<br />
ability to pull yourself up out of your elemental roots <strong>and</strong> present your enlightened being to a<br />
patiently waiting God. The belief that with the power of your mind you can <strong>and</strong> will prevail.<br />
INVERTED: You must be on guard against the extremes here. Be neither arrogant as to the mind’s<br />
capacity, nor naive.<br />
FOUR OF WANDS<br />
In These Spread Positions...Interpret the Four of W<strong>and</strong>s Meanings to Include:<br />
1 GOVERNED BY THE MAGICIAN: PHYSICAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE FATHER<br />
UPRIGHT: The affairs of the Physical Plane are marked by a sensitivity to values much higher than<br />
the instincts <strong>for</strong> protection <strong>and</strong> survival. While you may not be a priest in this lifetime, your level of<br />
devotion <strong>and</strong> integration of spirit into the Material Plane have ordained you nevertheless. Your<br />
work will be richly inspired. INVERTED: In time, your observation of divine law may lead you to<br />
extreme, perhaps rare, <strong>for</strong>ms of devotion.<br />
2 GOVERNED BY THE HIGH PRIESTESS: EMOTIONAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE MOTHER<br />
UPRIGHT: The affairs of the Emotional Plane are marked by a sensitivity to values much higher<br />
than the desire <strong>for</strong> procreation <strong>and</strong> extension via creativity. This spiritual foundation offers a base<br />
<strong>for</strong> receiving profound inspiration to in<strong>for</strong>m your talents <strong>and</strong> give them expression, <strong>and</strong> it lays a<br />
ground <strong>for</strong> your network of relationships to fertilize. You are demonstrative in all your relationships.<br />
INVERTED: You are capable of exceptional works of great beauty, some of which will be your<br />
relationships themselves. The depth <strong>and</strong> range of your emotional perception will be a challenge.<br />
3 GOVERNED BY THE EMPRESS: MENTAL GIVENS, INTELLECTUAL PREDISPOSITION<br />
UPRIGHT: The affairs of the Mental Plane are marked by a sensitivity to values much higher than<br />
the drive <strong>for</strong> continuity through the legacy of your intellectual achievements. You will be well<br />
in<strong>for</strong>med principally because you will always be listening. There is a pleasant seriousness in your<br />
ambition to be of value. INVERTED: You will enjoy the intricacies of spiritual observation with an<br />
attention <strong>for</strong> detail matched by few. The depth <strong>and</strong> range of your mental perception will be a<br />
challenge.<br />
4 GOVERNED BY THE EMPEROR: SPIRITUAL GIVENS, LIFE PURPOSE<br />
UPRIGHT: Your life is to be a celebration, an observation of perennial wisdom. There is a lightness<br />
to you even at your most serious moments (of which there are many). For you are a most serious<br />
person, tenaciously efficient, yet so obviously effective to everyone’s benefit as to draw no criticism.<br />
Quite the contrary, you are sought out <strong>for</strong> that quality <strong>and</strong> <strong>for</strong> your natural ability to teach by<br />
example. INVERTED : As people profit by being near you, it may be difficult to guard the time you<br />
need <strong>for</strong> yourself. Ritual <strong>and</strong> observation may become <strong>for</strong>ces to be reckoned with.<br />
5 GOVERNED BY THE HIEROPHANT: SYSTEMS BORN INTO, SOCIETAL INFLUENCE<br />
UPRIGHT: The spiritual practices observed in your early environment may or may not have been<br />
of an organized religious nature. But they were truly spiritual in a meaningful way. There was great<br />
awareness <strong>and</strong> there was ritual observation. Daily practice here was a healthy blueprint <strong>for</strong> living.<br />
INVERTED: What you saw was not necessarily what you got. There may have been empty observations,<br />
even hypocrisy. Discipline may have been <strong>for</strong>ced as a misunderst<strong>and</strong>ing/misapplication of<br />
spiritual order.
