MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Three of Wands shows a Patchman raising his wands above his head with a glowing castle appearing in the illusion behind them. This indicates the pathway of spiritual will: the purpose is set behind the creative force which is now burning bright within. The direction is added to the burst of light, thus there is now a way forward.

MICRO READING

The end-goal or destination of the will has become realized. It is no longer just a manifestation of the will, but the will reaching a purpose, a destiny it moves towards. This is still a pathway that you must move through, and with the Three of Wands, you now know where you're going.

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Two of Wands is the purest manifestation of fire, one that goes in all directions toward a multitude of potentials and yet has no fixed pathway. The two characters display the two reactions to this creative light; first to oppose its sheer intensity, and then to embrace it through the realization of its nature. Both are natural, and ultimately a part of the same experience of light.

MICRO READING

The purest and first true manifestation of Fire, the Two of Wands embodies the burning creative will that is present and manifest within you. This fire is both destructive and creative in that destruction is often the first step in the creative process. Once the will has been...

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Four of Wands describes success upon reaching the end of the pathway which was set forth previously. The path traveled, the goal achieved and wholeness attained, thus resulting in instability of spiritual will. Through this accomplishment, there is a spiritual marriage of sorts, the union of dream with reality, and the harmony that creates this union.

MICRO READING

This card may be read in two ways. On the one hand, it indicates that you are approaching a success, or have something you must complete in order to walk through the gates and into the next stage of your journey. On the other hand, it indicates that you have already experienced this success. With your work done, and your plan successful, the fire within has been settled and there...

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Ace of Wands depicts the Princess of her suit holding a fiery wand, drawing a connection of spiritual will from her heart to her mind. Within the flames of the wand, the Seed of Life can be seen evoking the powers of the creative force. How this flame is utilized, however, remains to be seen. Here the energy is simply present, waiting to be tapped into.

MICRO READING

As the primal condition and spark of divine spiritual will, the Ace of Wands is a symbol of inspired Spirit moving through you. Nothing is manifest here, it is purely the potential for divine forces to be present in your life. The manifestation of a specific potential takes place through your own spiritual willpower to be a conscious creator.

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The All depicts an infinite field of Spirit manifesting a never-ending spiral creation of holy temples, representing the infinite ways of appreciating and honoring Spirit. The planets are aligned along this vortex pillar as well, depicting the celestial chakras as we comprehend them. This card is tethered to Da'at on the Tree of Life, which represents knowledge, the bridge between idea, and what we call reality. It is the only true measure of how we may come to know God.

MICRO READING

When drawn in a reading, The All describes that in essence, anything can happen. There is an infinite amount of subjects to learn; there is an infinite number of pathways to explore. While we may be limited, our souls (and the Spirit they emerge from), are...

KEYWORDS

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Way can only truly be understood when experienced in relation to the teachings of the Tao, which translates to "The Way". "The Tao that can be expressed in words is not the eternal Tao" - Lao Tzu. The Tao teaches that no matter how we attempt to indicate a concept, what we are indicating cannot possibly encompass the true Spirit of the said concept. On the Tree of Life, this card connects with Ain, the eternal vacuum of Spirit. Ain is the nothingness from which the concept of infinity emerges, describing that all things originate from, and dissolve back into nothingness. This may seem like a blessing and a curse, but it is simply The Way we came to be and The Way we are going; in Hebrew, this is often called the Atzmut - "The Essence".

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Truth represents the fundamental Truth that unifies and connects all things in creation: the infinite sea of possibilities from which all manifestations, even The Light, emerges. This is simply the concept of infinity, however, the concept of infinity only exists in the presence of the awareness of it. The relationship between consciousness and infinity is what allows for contemplation of the ultimate and supreme Truth above all Truths.

MICRO READING

The appearance of The Truth in a reading is a call to bring awareness to what is true, and even to bring a voice to this truth (at the very least so that you may know it to be true yourself). The key, speak, indicates that in order for the truth to be heard, it must be spoken and shared. It is in the...

MICRO DESCRIPTION

The Light represents the formless, shapeless, unknowable and undefinable source from which the entire Tree of Life emerges. It is beyond comprehension and serves as a reminder that no matter what we think we know, we know nothing at all.

MICRO READING

When drawing The Light in a reading, it speaks to the revealing and illuminating of something that is hidden. This is a total illumination, a "lifting of the veil" in order to vividly clarify something previously murky or confusing. Further, this is the creative light, and so describes that this illuminating power may encompass a new illuminating solution as well. This creative power is infinite and is a reminder that Spirit is always with you.
