The Secret of the Dark Mirror

genie-in-mirror

 

Know that the Jinn which mighty Solomon

Did conjure in the Triangle of Art

Were formed in the reflection of his face

For they were aspects of his soul

Each agreeing unto a Quadrant,

A Planet and a metal thereof

Which when burnished did reflect

Even as a Mirror

 

And when thou holdest the lighted tapers

In thine own hands

And thou dost gaze deep into thine own eyes

Know that thou dost perform The Art

In the very manner in which it was truly done.

— from The Book of Astarte, by Frater Aleyin (Thabion)

 

 

Tarot Contemplation – The Hanged Man

GD TAROT_Hanged Man

You may feel frustrated that things aren’t moving as quickly as you’d like today.  Be patient; stop trying to force things to happen.  Take this time of waiting as an opportunity to practice being present with yourself.  You may find that when you let go of your expectations that things turn out differently, and even better, than you’d hoped.  Today is a time for patience, contemplation and sacrifice.  The greatest benefit will be had when you are able to let go.  Don’t try to control the present situation.  Try to make peace with uncertainty.  Take time to observe your environment and situation from a new perspective.  Review what has come before.  Notice the blessings that came out of hardship.  It is a good time to look at past readings and journal writings in the new light of the present.  A sacrifice may be required now in order to move forward.  Now is the time to get in touch with the spiritual aspects of yourself.

Sekhmet

sekhmetSekhmet, whose name means “the powerful one,” was a warlike, bloodthirsty goddess. She was usually portrayed as a slender woman with the head of a lioness. As the daughter of the sun-god Re, Sakhmet waged war against both the enemies of the sun-god and the enemies of the king, who was the “physical son of Re.” This head of Sakhmet shows the goddess wearing both the solar disk and the uraeus, the fire-spitting cobra that symbolized kingship (the head of the uraeus is broken off).
