Tarot Strength Leo Sun


Tarot Strength Leo Tarot Strength Leo Sun. Does the card image suggest that Strength is taking the fruit or refusing the fruit? The split in the pomegranate represents the act of decision, and the seeds within represent the countless once-hidden, but now visible, possibilities. Whether accepting the fruit or declining the fruit there will be repercussions. You can only do what you feel is right. There is no right or wrong; there is only what works for you. An act of submission is sometimes an act of strength. As an example of a bicameral archetype for this card, Achilles is […]

Tarot Card Meanings


Tarot Card Meanings, Our Inner Voice Tarot Card meanings arise from our inner voice. They help us put order and rhythm into life’s apparent chaos. As humans, we crave safety and order. Our minds naturally seek patterns, even in chaos, like seeing images in clouds. Often, the images we notice are the ones we need to see. Tarot divination challenges us to understand our present situation and the steps needed to move forward. Answers don’t come from outside. They come from within. Tarot card images act as triggers. They help us bypass what we avoid, confronting truths we already know but […]

Prometheus Cain,Consciousness and the Wrath of God


Prometheus Cain and Wrath of God My painting Prometheus Cain and the Wrath of God looks at the mythological dynamic from two perspectives.  It illustrates the phenomenon of enlightenment being shared prior to the punishment being executed. From the Greek perspective, it is the agent of enlightenment to man, Prometheus, who is the one suffering the wrath of the Gods. In the Jewish/Christian philosophy, it is the receiver of enlightenment, Eve, who suffers the wrath of God. In the background is Zeus looking down from his domain of Olympus.  He appears remote, almost uninterested in the dynamic being played out […]

Sun Virgo Tarot Hermit Self Healing


Sun Virgo Tarot Hermit Sun Virgo corresponds to the major arcana tarot card Hermit. Close examination of the card reveals the eyes of the Hermit are closed, symbolising answers to questions are obtained through introspection and the seeking elucidation from within. The Hermit derives resolution to uncertainty from learned personal experience, recalled through inner voice, in contradiction to relying on influences of society, media and social convention. This inner voice, according to Julian Jaynes in his book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind, was the voice of Gods and ancestors commonly listened to by our […]

Sun Enters Gemini, Tarot Card Lovers


Sun Enters Gemini, Tarot Card Lovers The Sun in Gemini, tarot card Lovers, represents the duality of our brain at the point of becoming conscious. The union of the Maiden and the Serpent illustrates the duality of the human brain. The figure descending from the sky represents the rise of human consciousness and self-awareness. Inspiration for my depiction of the Lovers card came from Paolo Uccello’s  painting of Saint George and the Dragon. The Influence of Paolo Uccello’s Painting Upon the Lovers On a first glance at Paolo Uccello’s painting, it seems the male hero rescues the maiden from the clutches of a […]
