Karmic Spread Reading Interpretations
291
16 GOVERNED BY THE TOWER: NEXT LESSON, GRACE OF GOD
UPRIGHT: Let the higher ego come into full play. It is proper for you to be feeling accomplished,
on target, wise, and a host of other good emotions about yourself. This is not the sin of pride. This
is simply the healthy pride of the ego acknowledging its knowledge. As the self becomes more
worldly, literally approaching the World archetype at the end of the Mental Plane, it must feel
larger. INVERTED: Be on your guard as you experience this archetype in the near future, against
both the sin of pride and the opposite extreme—denial of self-knowledge.
17 GOVERNED BY THE STAR: APIRATIONS OF EGO, GOALS, MAXIMUM EXPECTATIONS
UPRIGHT: This is the proper goal, the aspiration to gnosis that brings true faith. Only by knowing
is the link between the inner and outer aspects of God established and healthy two-way communication
able to materialize “as above, so below.” INVERTED: The proper goal of gnosis is an acceptance
of the process toward ever increasing wisdom, not a belief in a fixed pinnacle of wisdom—reality
waiting as an apple to be plucked.
18 GOVERNED BY THE MOON: ASPIRATIONS OF HEART, COMPASSION
UPRIGHT: Here the heart desires to bring together knowledge and responsibility. It offers energy and
support to the quest of mind so that in turn the mind can guide the full and caring heart toward worthy,
compassionate ends. Here the heart itself seeks wisdom, gnosis. INVERTED: In one extreme, the heart
is far too fond of the ability of mind and will not be an adequate check. In the other extreme, the heart
lacks enough respect for the mind and will be more likely to be foolish.
19 GOVERNED BY THE SUN: PHYSICAL FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: The Physical/Material Plane has served well the projects of higher mind, and vice versa.
You will be sitting in the midst of your achievements. You will be mentally alert and active into your
later years. INVERTED: This archetype is achievable if you heed the lessons of your karmic purpose.
20 GOVERNED BY JUDGEMENT: HEART’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: The wedding of heart and mind has produced abundant evidence in the sophistication
of your relationships and the intellectual impact of your creative projects. A writer of great passion
would have this archetype. INVERTED: This is an ambitious archetype, but yours for the having
with perseverance.
21 GOVERNED BY THE WORLD: EGO’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: What a thrill for the mind to achieve this in a lifetime. To have submitted the mind of
the ego to the full investigation of itself. You no longer have any secrets to hide from yourself. This
is a precondition of true gnosis, in which higher mind performs the same operation on itself.
INVERTED: The pain that can come with this level of mental intensity compares directly to the
ache of our muscles after strenuous physical labor, and with the ache of our heart as it stretches to
accommodate more and more. This is the pain of growth, of true faith.
22/0 GOVERNED BY THE FOOL: SOUL’S FULFILLMENT/EVALUATION
UPRIGHT: This path has been relatively easy, even though much has happened and many lessons
have been learned, because responsibility has been sought and accepted with as much eagerness as
knowledge. INVERTED: In death, the darkest of the dark, is to be found the lightest of the light. The
path of the former can contain formidable pain. The path of the latter is the path of wisdom and
need contain no pain.

1 GOVERNED BY THE MAGICIAN: PHYSICAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE FATHER
UPRIGHT: Spirituality will permeate, and be very visible, in your Physical/Material Plane. If you
do not make your living outwardly with spiritual enterprise, it will somehow still occupy the
