The Devil is known as the "father of lies," and we are treated to such lies every day from the seats of power and media empires aligned with them. The Prophets recognized the way powerful pervert the truth and called it out forcefully. We need such prophets to rain curses down on them today.

The 5 of Wands can be either be about conflict or collaboration. Competition or cooperation. And sometimes, choreography! What do you see in this card?

This teaching from the Talmud is often studied during the week when we read about the story of the plague of darkness in Exodus. And it reminded me both of The Moon card and the situation we find ourselves in today. Continued in the comments...

The exoteric and esoteric. Outer and inner. The transcendent and the Divine within. Each alone is incomplete. The work of Kabbalistic tarot is to experience the unity that holds duality. To open to both Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine and so go beyond the binary to Messianic Consciousness.

This Tree of Life diagram shows the letters associated with the channels, based on the Sefer Yetzirah’s division into 3 mother letters, 7 double letters and 12 simple letters. This is different than what Western Occultists teach, but it can turbocharge your tarot work. It’s what I teach.
