Once you have learned to read the cards, using your favorite deck, you'll want to go further -- to help yourself or people you know with important decisions. In order to do that, you must know the "ins and outs" of the relationship process, whether it's the most important love relationship in your life, or how to deal with an unruly child, or even how to cope with people at work. Gail Fairfield shows you how to approach relationship analysis from a choice-centered point of view. Fairfield outlines how to ask the right questions and how to work through situations to arrive at equitable solutions. She provides examples of the choice-centered approach to life experience. Many events in life are beyond control -- or choice -- so she gives us techniques for dealing with conscious action and reaction. Our center of control is not outside -- it resides within us -- and with deepening understanding and steady practice, we can access this center and nurture its growth. A choice-centered orientation lets us ask relationship-related questions and interpret guidance provided by the symbolism of the tarot. This book is filled with practical advice, thought-provoking questions, and guides to interpretation using a wide variety of sample layouts. Using many case histories and examples, Fairfield brings the tarot to life! This book will become a valued friend and advisor, one you'll keep close at hand every time you read the cards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every aspect of our lives, from the most easily recognizable--relationships, material success, health, security, work--to much more subtle and often seemingly fixed subjects, such as truth, wisdom, spirit, and natural laws, constantly flows through ever-changing patterns and cycles. So, if the universe is flexible and evolving, and if our understanding of it changes with each new theory or model, what is real? How can we guide ourselves through the seeming chaos of living? How do we find a center, or grounding, in the middle of it all? How can we experience this constancy of change from the exciting and positive position of choice instead of the often terrifying helplessness found in the maze of fate? In Choice Centered Relating and the Tarot, Fairfield provides easily identifiable examples of choice centered approaches to life experience. She quickly faces the fact that many events in our lives are beyond our control, or choice, and then leads us to the empowering realization that we can learn the art of conscious action and reaction. Our center of control is not outside--but within--and with deepening understanding and steady practice, we can learn to access this center and nurture its growth. From this choice centered orientation we learn how to frame relationship-related questions and interpret the guidance provided by the symbolism of the tarot. The book is filled with thought-provoking questions and guides to interpretation using a wide variety of sample layouts. Any of the excellent tarot decks currently available can be used to awaken this life-changing approach.

Download or read book The Game of Saturn written by Peter Mark Adams and published by Scarlet Imprint. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2017 Esoteric Book of the Year As voted by the membership of the Occult of Personality’s Chamber of Reflection Dr. Joscelyn Godwin, Colgate University, emeritus “Besides gratifying the bibliophile, the contents follow scholarly principles, and the notes and documentation are as thorough as one could wish .... Even if only partially provable, The Game of Saturn opens a new and darker vista on the pagan Renaissance. No student of that current should ignore it” Renaissance Quarterly Volume LXXI, No. 2 Niketas Siniossoglou. National Hellenic Research Foundation, Athens “The Game of Saturn by Peter Mark Adams is a fascinating read. The author calls it “a literary detective story”, but this may well be an understatement ... Adams decodes astral, alchemical, and sexual associations that are plausible, and shows how they may have been redeployed into visual format ... The Game of Saturn is a stimulating read, and it is difficult to put it down. It will appeal to all scholars of Renaissance intellectual history, esotericism, and Plethon. Published by Scarlet Imprint, the book is a rare example of fine printmaking, featuring beautiful reproductions of the Sola-Busca deck.” Aries - Journal for the Study of Western Esotericism 18 (2018) 287–304. The Game of Saturn is the first full length, scholarly study of the enigmatic Renaissance masterwork known as the Sola-Busca tarot. It reveals the existence of a pagan liturgical and ritual tradition active amongst members of the Renaissance elite and encoded within the deck. Beneath its beautifully decorated surface, its imagery ranges from the obscure to the grotesque; we encounter scenes of homoeroticism, wounding, immolation and decapitation redolent of hidden meanings, violent transformations and obscure rites. For the first time in over five hundred years, the clues embedded within the cards reveal a dark Gnostic grimoire replete with pagan theurgical and astral magical rites. Careful analysis demonstrates that the presiding deity of this ‘cult object’ is none other than the Gnostic demiurge in its most archaic and violent form: the Afro-Levantine serpent-dragon, Ba’al Hammon, also known as Kronos and Saturn, though more notoriously as the biblical Moloch, the devourer of children. Conveyed from Constantinople to Italy in the dying years of the Byzantine Empire, the pagan Platonist George Gemistos Plethon sought to ensure the survival of the living essence of Neoplatonic theurgy by transplanting it to the elite families of the Italian Renaissance. Within that violent and sorcerous milieu, Plethon’s vision of a theurgically enlightened elite mutated into its dark shadow – a Saturnian brotherhood, operating within a cosmology of predation, which sought to channel the draconian current to preserve elite wealth, power and control. This development marks the birth of an ‘illumined elite’ over three centuries before Adam Weishaupt’s ‘Illuminati.’ The deck captures the essence of this magical tradition and constitutes a Western terma whose talismanic properties may serve to establish an initiatory link with the current. This work fully explores the historical context for the deck’s creation against the background of tense Ferrarese-Venetian diplomatic intrigue and espionage. The recovery of the deck’s encoded narratives constitutes a significant contribution to Renaissance scholarship, art history, tarot studies and the history of Western esotericism.

Lady of the Hunt In this spread, "project" means any creative endeavor or career/study plan. "Relationship" can be new love, coworkers, family, or friendships. You are the Lady of the Hunt and your question becomes your quest. If you have something specific in mind, ask your question while shuffling the cards. For example, "Tell me what I need to know about my new (love, work situation, etc.)." Breathe deeply and shuffle your tarot deck. When you are ready, lay the cards out in the shape of a waxing crescent moon. Position 1 - This begins your project or relationship: Your life experience, what you bring from the past into the new situation. What brought you to this moment? Position 2 - This shapes your project or relationship: Outside influences, significant events, other people that shape the situation. Position 3 - This is at the center of your project or relationship: The main theme, lesson, opportunity or challenge of the situation. The focus card; all other cards revolve around the center and it carries the most weight in the reading. Position 4 - What your project or relationship needs to succeed: The effort you will make, the "elbow grease" required for your goals and ambitions to be realized, the follow-up too your magical workings on the physical plane. Position 5 - The direction or path of your project or relationship: Where you are headed, the future outlook. Position 6 - Advice card: What is the best course of action to take with this new project or relationship? What do you need to know now? To complete the Maiden reading, you can meditate with the cards, write a journal entry, keep the cards on the altar until the next waxing moon, or simple close. Carry a card or two with you during the day to strengthen the connection between you and your Maiden Spirit's desire. Affirm your personal power to create your destiny: "I awaken to my own creative powers. This, or something better, is manifesting for me now, for the good of all, harming no one, according to free will. So must it be."
