The Wheel of Fortune, Omnium , Mistress of All!  Impartial and unceasing, the Wheel carries us all in its rotation - some rising, some falling, but none motionless.  In this episode we explore what Fortune brings and what Fortune takes away, the rise of Hermanubis and the fall of Typhon, the hand outstretched to receive, the palm raised to protect.  We touch once again on the four Living Creatures of Ezekiel, those cryptic beasts on the four corners of the card, and we explore the kingship over fate represented by Jupiter/Zeus.

Remote and profound, the Hermit lights the way with his eternal lantern.  But there's more to him than meets the eye.  Is he Father Time?  Is he the Fool, all grown up?  Is he Gandalf?!  In this episode we talk about his connection with Virgo and Virgo's ruler, the divine messenger and traveler between realms, Mercury.  We consider the 8, 9, and 10 of Pentacles; we talk about the mysteries contained in his gnarled hand and in the lamp it holds.

It's The Child of the Powers of the Waters! The Lord of the Triumph of Light! Or, more familiarly, the Chariot.

Among the Major Arcana, the Chariot is one of those symbol-packed images that don't necessarily give you that much to work with at first glance.  But the closer you look, the more there is.

Ah, the Lovers - that card which means everything you think it does, and nothing you expected.

Does your heart beat a little faster when you draw the Lovers?  Do you feel a thrill of recognition?  I bet you do, and yet you can't quite put your finger on that maddening, tantalizing magnetism.

This week we bring you the Pontifex of Tarot, the Bridge Between Worlds, the Keeper of the Keys: the Hierophant, himself.

As we discover, the Hierophant is one of the most deep, layered, complex cards in the deck.  We talk about the Dove and the Serpent (which, contrary to what you might expect, is not actually a pub for occultists), the Beasts of Ezekiel, that cryptic hand gesture, keys, wands, masks, and so much more.  We consider his connection to the 5, 6, and 7 of Pentacles (and a hard lesson Susie learned from the 7!).

To learn more about the Hierophant, Taurus, the astrological terminology we use, the color schemes of the cards etc., be sure to visit us at http://www.patreon.com/fortuneswheelhouse.  There you can explore lots of additional content and sign up for added features.

"It's all about the Moon..."

In this episode we look at the High Priestess, or Priestess, card of lunar mysteries.  The Priestess has long been associated with the Moon: its changeability, its magical nature, its watery influence, its threefold significance for women, its association with the intuition and secret knowledge, or even the unknown.

We explore her deep connections with the sacred feminine: the goddesses Isis and Hathor, the iconography of the Virgin Mary, and the Demeter and Persephone myth represented by the Empress and the High Priestess.
