Four lions in the Crystal Tarot

Posted on April 13, 2005January 24, 2023 by Barbara W. Klaser

Yesterday the Four of Wands came up in a reading with the Crystal Tarot. Later the King of Wands appeared in a separate reading with the same deck. Both cards have lions in their images.

Vernal Equinox: Empress

Posted on March 20, 2005January 24, 2023 by Barbara W. Klaser

Many people associate either IV The Emperor or 4 of Wands with the Vernal Equinox, because of those cards’ associations with the astrological sign Aries. But to me no card epitomizes the advent of Spring more than the Empress, in particular III The Empress as depicted by Lady Frieda Harris.

Restoring Cosmic Order

Posted on September 20, 2004January 24, 2023 by Barbara W. Klaser

Tarot of Transformation, 8 Balance. This card is a reminder that we are observed, or that what we do is somehow recorded. If not by other people or our own higher selves, then by the powers or laws of the universe.

Ignorance or Innocence?

Posted on August 22, 2004January 24, 2023 by Barbara W. Klaser

0 The Fool: Ignorance or Innocence? The figure in this card wears a costume reminiscent of a harlequin, and a mask. The figure follows a star, but looks over their shoulder at a smaller figure who appears to be demanding attention.

Tarot of Transformation

Posted on August 17, 2004January 24, 2023 by Barbara W. Klaser

Tarot of Transformation. I find these cards particularly healing in their images and messages. It’s almost like having a deck of 78 Major Arcana.
