CIRCUS DIVINATION
Fool
The circus was in town. As Nathan was wandering through the fair grounds, he encountered a clown, who offered to give him a Tarot reading.
"Why not?" Nathan responded. "What kind of spread will you be using?"
"A three-card spread that reveals the past, present, and future," the clown replied.
"That sounds like fun!" Nathan exclaimed.
Fun House
"Great! Follow me," the clown commanded. "I have a room in the fun house where I give readings."
Three of Swords: Saturn in Libra, Saturn in Understanding
"If you are ready, I will draw the first card. Ahhh, the Three of Swords, Saturn in Libra, Saturn in Understanding." A portal suddenly became energized and pulled Nathan into it.
Portal
On the other side of the portal, Nathan encountered the Three of Swords. Somehow, he could still hear the clown's voice: "A decan, as you know, represents ten degrees of the zodiac and includes the symbols of a zodiac sign and a planet, which represent subtle forces. The Tree of Life association refers to the Emanation on the Tree of Life associated with the subtle forces. The Tree of Life is a glyph that reveals the subtle dimensions of Universal Consciousness. Since you are a facet of Universal Consciousness, the Tree of Life also exists within you. That is how you are made in God's image."
The World: Saturn
The clown continued, "This card represents the past, which reveals that at some point you have experienced suffering and loss. Let's start with the decan. Saturn is the Father of the Gods associated with restriction and abundance. Saturn restricts subtle spiritual force in form, including the human spirit, and that restriction allows us to create abundance in the physical plane. But all form dissolves, so we suffer loss."
Justice: Libra
"Survival in the physical plane requires great discipline and resilience, but within this state of suffering and uncertainty, we develop a sense of inner balance and create harmony in the community by upholding justice through the rule of law," the clown stated. "This is one way we grow through the discipline associated with Saturn, individually and within a community."
Fun House Portal
"I am now going to draw the second card, which represents the present," the clown stated. "Nice. The Three of Pentacles, Mars in Capricorn and Saturn in Understanding, which is 'Binah' in Hebrew." Suddenly Nathan noticed another portal in the fun house, which became energized and drew him in.
Three of Pentacles: Mars in Capricorn, Saturn in Understanding
The clown continued, "Mars can burn away negativity and purify the mind so that you know the divinity of your essential self and touch the dimensions of Universal Consciousness, but notice that this card reveals that Mars is also a disciplining force. Mars is Saturn on a lower arc. Through Mars we can discipline the mind so that we can create great cathedrals. We can use the mind to see into spiritual dimensions and bring spiritual symbols into our dimension. We can use the intellect to create plans. We can then bring those plans into manifestation."
The Tower: Mars
"Mars is also a great disciplining force. Through Mars we establish courage and inner strength. The lightning bolt of Mars destroys whatever is destructive to the community and the individual, and it often strikes when least expected, but Mars uses the lightning bolt to neutralize or destroy unbalanced forces so that we can then create and maintain harmony. This card reveals that you are creating harmony within your personal sphere of influence through great discipline," the clown stated.
The Devil: Capricorn
The clown continued, "Capricorn can appear terrifying to some people. Capricorn reveals all the life forces within the physical plane, some of which are beyond the control of human beings. We can let unbalanced forces imprison us in darkness, but we can slip out of our chains and experience all the life forces as dimensions of Universal Consciousness. That is why the Devil is holding up his right hand in a gesture of blessing. So this card suggests that you can see with the inner eye and experience the life forces in a positive way."
Fun House Portal
"I am now going to draw the third card, which represents the future," the clown stated. "The Six of Swords, Mercury in Aquarius, The Sun in Beauty." Another portal appeared and pulled Nathan through it.
Six of Swords: Mercury in Aquarius, The Sun in Beauty
The clown continued, "This is another good card. Saturn, Mars, and Mercury exist on the Pillar of Severity on the right side of the Tree of Life. Mercury is Mars on a lower arc. Mercury exists in the human mind as the ability to create and manifest form and to see with the imagination into the future to create a higher good."
The Magician: Mercury
"Mercury also helps us to know the subtle energies known as the Elements of the Wise, Air, Fire, Spirit, Water, and Earth, which includes the triplicities of the zodiac and their ruling planets. Through Mercury, we can know the Beauty of the Sun and manifest all of the subtle energies of the Tree of Life," the clown stated.
The Star: Aquarius
The clown continued, "And through Aquarius, we activate a higher awareness, which some call the higher self or the Holy Guardian Angel. Through Aquarius, we can see the world in different ways, especially spiritual ways, and safely reach distant shores. The mythological principle of Aquarius is 'The Opening of the Heart.' This card suggests that you have opened your heart so that you can continue to experience and manifest the energies of the dimensions of Universal Consciousness in the future."
