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

5 GOVERNED BY THE HIEROPHANT: SYSTEMS BORN INTO, SOCIETAL INFLUENCE<br />

UPRIGHT: Your early environment was dominated by a female perspective, albeit an enlightened<br />

<strong>and</strong> spiritual one. This is much more likely to have been the Eastern religious <strong>and</strong> philosophical<br />

viewpoint. Although <strong>for</strong>mal religion may not have played a part, there were proper observances of<br />

man’s relationship to the higher order <strong>and</strong> a spiritual discipline was prevalent. INVERTED: At one<br />

extreme, a relatively narrow perspective of spirituality <strong>and</strong> observance may have dominated these<br />

early years, creating rejection rather than acceptance.<br />

6 GOVERNED BY THE LOVERS: EMOTIONAL TAPES, BASIS OF RELATING/CREATING<br />

UPRIGHT: Your earliest tapes of imprint are of this spiritual figure of authority, perhaps your own<br />

mother. But it could be of an older family figure such as a gr<strong>and</strong>mother, or of course someone<br />

outside the family, perhaps someone famous whom you came to admire. INVERTED: Distorted,<br />

this otherwise very healthy archetype can become a block instead of a blueprint/foundation <strong>for</strong> love<br />

<strong>and</strong> creativity. At one extreme, the figure is idolized <strong>and</strong> idealized <strong>and</strong> real life will find it hard to<br />

compete. At the other extreme, the figure is loathed, <strong>and</strong> by extension either all women or certain<br />

types of women are not to be loved/trusted.<br />

7 GOVERNED BY THE CHARIOT: PHYSICAL RESOURCES; MEANS TO ACHIEVE<br />

UPRIGHT: This may be someone, perhaps a family member on whom you can fall back. The<br />

accuracy of your in<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>and</strong> its relevance to the future are decided advantages to doing the<br />

right thing at the right time. INVERTED: The people, or the guides, on whom you have relied are not<br />

available/reliable in the present situation.<br />

8 GOVERNED BY STRENGTH: EMOTIONAL RESOURCES, ENERGY<br />

UPRIGHT: You are stronger than most because of the purity of your motives. As you have tried to<br />

align your personal goals with more universal purposes, you carry an inner confidence in the inevitability<br />

of your success. Right will out. The love <strong>and</strong> backing of this queen in a person may be the source<br />

of your strength. INVERTED: This can be a disappointed love that has weakened you <strong>for</strong> the moment.<br />

9 GOVERNED BY THE HERMIT: BELIEF SYSTEM; BASIS FOR DECISIONS<br />

UPRIGHT: Here is a healthy balance of belief <strong>and</strong> confidence in the lessons of the worlds of physics<br />

<strong>and</strong> metaphysics, as this queen is the mother of beliefs. Belief, inspiration is taken into your body<br />

<strong>and</strong> nurtured so that it can emerge as enriched belief in all that you say <strong>and</strong> do. You breathe in the<br />

word of God so that it can take <strong>for</strong>m in <strong>and</strong> through you. INVERTED: Just as with children, beliefs<br />

must be let loose to mature on their own. You cannot possess your beliefs anymore than you can<br />

possess your children.<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 directly to your spiritual house, that you may<br />

increase the efficiency there. INVERTED: This suggests that you are needed to help another or<br />

others with their spiritual house.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: The Queen of W<strong>and</strong>s occupies your thoughts, either in her person or her characteristics.<br />

The soothing effect of this passive centering is the enviable state of many meditations. From<br />

here much can be accomplished. INVERTED: You may think adversely about this queen, or she<br />

about you. Confusion, or subversion of a message may be taking place.<br />

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

UPRIGHT: The Queen of W<strong>and</strong>s fills your heart. She may be the centerpiece of your affection, or<br />

the centerpiece of a creative project underway. Her programs may dominate your feelings. IN-<br />

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

the symbol of your heart’s sadness over this person.
