In episode 15 of TABI's Tarot World, Astrologer, Hebrew scholar, and I Ching practitioner Mick Frankel joins Victoria and Gwen to talk about the alchemical wonder that is Temperance/Art. The Marseille, RWS, and Thoth interpretations all show some kind of exchange, but what's really going on here? And what does it mean in readings, whether practical or spiritual? Mick talks us through all the ingredients: the card's Hebrew letter Samech and how we can work with the Hebrew alphabet and Tarot more generally; the magic of the Divine archer, Sagittarius, and how he lights a Fire under our transformation; the mystery of numbers; and how the I Ching brings in new insights, working via a new system that Mick talks us through. We look at illustrations of Temperance in the Marseille, the RWS, the Thoth, and the InBetween Tarot, and explore the relationship the card might have with her neighbours, starting with Justice, Death, and The Fool. Once we've given all that a good stir, we talk reversals, and then finally put everything together with a look at stones, herbs and flowers, and fragrances. What is the final result of our alchemical journey? You tell us!
