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

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

UPRIGHT: Think well on this card <strong>for</strong> she is coming to you in one guise or another. As a guide <strong>and</strong><br />

source of inspiration, she is directing your attention to your mental house, that you may increase the<br />

efficiency there. INVERTED: This suggests that you are needed to help another or others with their<br />

mental house, to improve communication <strong>and</strong> bring order.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: Much of this queen’s energy is in the Major Arcana card Justice, which governs this very<br />

position in the spread. Your thoughts are very much on the entire process of centering, of balancing<br />

<strong>for</strong>ces, <strong>and</strong> of mental projects. You may, of course, be thinking of this queen personified. IN-<br />

VERTED: You may think adversely about this queen, or she about you. As an aspect of yourself, you<br />

may be avoiding thinking about your mental affairs.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: Perhaps your heart is on this queen. She may be an object of your affection, or the<br />

centerpiece of a creative project underway. Her programs may dominate your feelings. INVERTED:<br />

Your heart may be involved with the queen, but rather not be. Or the opposite, this can be the<br />

symbol of your heart’s sadness over this person.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: This queen is in your house. This archetype will bring authority <strong>and</strong> direction to your<br />

material affairs. She may give everyone a list of things to do. INVERTED: Just who does this queen<br />

think she is anyway? The problem here may be in how to get her out of your house while you still can.<br />

14 GOVERNED BY TEMPERANCE: EMOTIONAL TEST<br />

UPRIGHT: This queen is in your emotional house in the near future. If she is not presenting herself<br />

in person, then mental matters are pulling at your heart. Another possibility is that you are to be much<br />

more alert <strong>and</strong> responsible in your emotional <strong>and</strong> creative affairs. INVERTED: If this is someone<br />

already in your life, there are emotions to deal with here as one or the other of you turn away.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: This queen is on your mental horizon in the near future. If she is not presenting herself<br />

in person, then the archetype is dem<strong>and</strong>ing attention to her programs. It is important to the realization<br />

of your goals that you integrate more of her principles into your work. INVERTED: If this<br />

represents someone already in your life, this may show a turn of mind between you. There may<br />

some fear of authority. Or there may be abuse of authority.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: Here is the support, the energy <strong>and</strong> resources that you need to enhance your Mental<br />

Plane, <strong>and</strong> it may well come in the physical personage of the Queen of Swords. It may however, be<br />

the access to what she represents. She brings the knowledge <strong>and</strong> courage you need to <strong>for</strong>mulate <strong>and</strong><br />

advance your goals. INVERTED: Much of this blessing will be passed through you to others.<br />

17 GOVERNED BY THE STAR: APIRATIONS OF EGO, GOALS, MAXIMUM EXPECTATIONS<br />

UPRIGHT: This is the goal to have the knowledge that provides an overview, an ability to administer,<br />

to manage the affairs of man that advance what we have come to know as civilization. The more<br />

specialized mind may aspire to invent something that will improve the quality of life. INVERTED:<br />

Distortions of the ego may desire all of the a<strong>for</strong>ementioned, but with much more personal gain in mind.<br />

18 GOVERNED BY THE MOON: ASPIRATIONS OF HEART, COMPASSION<br />

UPRIGHT: This heart aspires to knowledge <strong>and</strong> the civilized state it fosters as the means to greater<br />

love <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing between men, <strong>and</strong> between man <strong>and</strong> nature. It not only adheres to the saying<br />

that a mind is a terrible thing to waste, but it knows that our potential <strong>for</strong> sin lies not in failing to<br />

achieve, but in not trying to the best of our ability. INVERTED: At one extreme, this hunger <strong>for</strong><br />

knowledge can distort <strong>and</strong> destroy rather than foster love.
