Karmic Tarot
8 GOVERNED BY STRENGTH: EMOTIONAL RESOURCES, ENERGY
UPRIGHT: Your ability to consider a multitude of facts involving many different people to reach
consensus has endeared you to your circle of loved ones. The strength derives from the wide base
you are able to lay down before taking action. Your emotional table has very strong legs. IN-
VERTED: The process of consensus that you have tried to bring about is not as efficient as you need
it to be.
9 GOVERNED BY THE HERMIT: BELIEF SYSTEM; BASIS FOR DECISIONS
UPRIGHT: You believe that we take it all with us, at least the content of our minds. Actually, you
know that the metaphysics of that statement is true; we take the lessons of everything we have
accumulated, at each of the four levels, with us through all future incarnations. Our caravan does
indeed grow as we trek across the desert from oasis to oasis, from experience to experience, from
revelation to revelation. You know that true growth comes only through acceptance of greater
and then greater responsibility. INVERTED: You may honestly believe that you make the trip
alone. If so, you may perfect an unusually bizarre strain of selfishness.
10 GOVERNED BY THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE: CENTRAL MESSAGE, THEME OF READING
UPRIGHT: At this time you must open to accept a greater range of responsibility for the administration
of others’ affairs as well as your own. Your intellect is needed by those close to you. IN-
VERTED: If you have been avoiding or diverting duties that rightfully fall to you, you should act
quickly and decisively to put things in order.
11 GOVERNED BY JUSTICE: STATE/CONTENT OF MIND
UPRIGHT: You are aware that you have a greater scope now, and if the canvas of your mind is not
yet larger, you have already purchased more oils in expectation of doing a bigger painting. People
may be knocking on your door, ideas demanding attention. INVERTED: You may know that you
will in turn be left behind if you leave the wrong things or wrong people behind now, and yet you
procrastinate.
12 GOVERNED BY THE HANGED MAN: STATE OF EMOTIONS, SUBCONSCIOUS
UPRIGHT: The heart has already committed to a much broader frame which the mind must react
to. The extended family exerts enormous pull on you to join in. Your role awaits you. INVERTED:
The heart is delaying for much of what is taking place is primarily in the realm of mind, and it knows
that your Emotional Plane will never be the same again, having to grow with your mind. The heart
struggles to mature.
13 GOVERNED BY DEATH: PHYSICAL SITUATION, HARD REALITY
UPRIGHT: Moving day, theoretically for your mind, but the mental expansion may have indeed
necessitated a physical change. If not actually changing homes or offices, the physical “moving”
may be in the furniture and equipment which facilitates your mental work. Rearrangement or
integration of new gear, new technology are possible. INVERTED: Perhaps the above changes are
necessary, even planned, but somehow blocked at this time.
14 GOVERNED BY TEMPERANCE: EMOTIONAL TEST
UPRIGHT: Mental expansion in new, larger areas with a larger cast of characters ripples through
your personal life. There are changes in the value and hierarchy of opinion at home, at work, or
between home and work. INVERTED: Either there will be virtually no effects, or the effects will be
great and require much of your attention.
15 GOVERNED BY THE DEVIL: TEMPTATION/CHALLENGE, FEARS
UPRIGHT: Deal head on with hesitation to mix your thoughts with the thoughts of others. Your
ideas will not only survive, but thrive. INVERTED: On the one extreme, there will be a fear of others
with similar, yet different ideas than yours. On the other extreme, there will be a strong urge to run
roughshod over the similar, yet different ideas of your comrades.
