Happy Thanksgiving!!

 

Mercury retrograde, I laugh in your face!  Then I hide in a cave until its over!

King of Cups

Chariot

Justice

Aye aye aye.  Well, I’m surprised I didn’t get the Judgment card, a phoenix always reminds me of thanksgiving where a bird is incinerated and rises from the ashes, lol!  Maybe that’s the point of Thanksgiving, eh?  The end of the year where we harvest the fruits of our labors and consume them, making them part of ourselves, being what we eat, eating our own labor.  I know people don’t like the extravagance that goes along with the holidays but I find the symbolism of it all spot on.  You want to eat all the abundance you can as a symbol of a successful year and to fortify your body in the same way with it.  Likewise on Christmas you have a deep desire to put away everything you need for winter, hoard all your riches, all your meat, all your fat, make sure your children will be fed until spring.  Also, you want to make a symbolic expression of richness that the coming year can sympathize with.  I’m ok with all of that.  Yes commercialism sucks, but it is just taking advantage of our natural inclinations which are good and honorable.

Anyway, internally I got the King of Cups.  My heart is exploding! But at least this shows a sense of mastery over it.  I had a dream last night, well, I don’t think its wise to say too much, but it explained a lot to me.  Yes, I am basically confused about the whole issue most of the time!

BTW, I have been working on a lwb, a little white book that isn’t really so little.  I have the whole book that will come out with the deck, of course, but this is more specific divinatory meanings in a list form.  I think it’s almost ready to be recorded and put out there in some way.  Website? printout? some sort of reading software? Don’t know yet.  Here?

From my lwb, the King of Cups is the master of the subconscious, knowing the self enough to not be a slave to it but to learn from it and derive power from it because it is infinitely wise.  Intoxication and good sleep.

I definitely got the good sleep last night, first time in a while!  Yes the rest is true as well.

In the same vein (what an awesome expression when you think about it!) The Chariot is to apply knowledge and take action, to exert your free will  and conscious intent in your life.

Well, physically I won’t be doing much of that today as it is a holiday and I will just be home.  But, strangely enough I am having thanksgiving with my ex, the kids of course, wouldn’t have it any other way, and my mother and sister in law (oh shit I just realized that I really need to go clean the house, ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Maybe that’t the action part hahahahahahaha!  Get off my king of cups, naval gazing ass and clean the freakin house!!!! omg that’s funny.

Maybe I should add to the lwb, stop mentally masturbating yourself and get to work!

Ok the last card is the Justice card.  Truth, order, justice, equilibrium, law.  Keep a light heart, see things the way they really are (including yourself) match the inside truth with the outside truth.  Mmmmm hmmmm, very good advice really.

I am worried, I am sad, but, I have to look around me and appreciate what is there, love what is there, be present in this moment.  And go clean the f-in house!  And make ambrosia!  And gird my loins for the day.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!!!!!!
