Liber Theta Tarot Meditations
-
93 everyone,
Magictortoise and I have partnered up to take on the Tarot meditations in Jim's book Liber Theta: Tarot Symbolism & Divination. We thought it would be a great idea to invite anyone interested in learning the Tarot to participate with us.
If you don't know what Liber Theta is you can get a free copy of it here:
The whole purpose of this project is to make a contribution to both the Thelemic and the Tarot community and to provide a living body of work for all who wish to participate, similar to the Meditation of the Day we have going on here. Jim did an amazing job of revising the original Liber T manuscript so we've decided to take his work for a joy ride and bring as many people as we can
Tomorrow, I'll be posting the instructions for the meditations as well as the first card we'll be working with. You will definitely need to download a copy of Liber Theta to get the most out of this experience so if you don't have a copy get one

Sounds fun! I think the "Meditation of the Day" format has been a great success on the forum, and I'm sure it will be equally interesting to go through Liber Theta the same way.

Well since Aegis found a photo of my family reunion and shared it.....
( btw that is not me on the far left, with the fancy hat....I am in my birthday suit, waving at the camera)I look forward to this new forum, and participating with you all. I have read Thoth Tarot pretty much based upon instinct, going where I was led sort of thing, reading them for myself, and using them as tools for personal transformation.
So I personally have a lot of room to grow and learn.
Thank you all for facilitating this great endeavor!

Speaking of popcorn,
I just ordered over one hundred cases of TrailsEnd popcorn for my cub scouts pack. Each case has about twenty to thirty bags of AbFab popcorn! And seventy percent of the money goes right back to the scouts.....
and these one hundred cases are going to be in my tiny tiny home, till I get it all sold....Blah blah blah,
I could sell a sand castle to an arab....I live to serve, and help and bring smiles, and and and.....
I really think I am going to need a big box of wine to get me through this fundraiser....
Oh yeaAnd then, My little girl scout gets to sell cookies......
So you ladies can have you popcorn, and your cookies...
This year I am going to have a few drinks,
One of my friends showed me how it would be good for me,
Make me live longer, and healthier and happier...... -

Here is the I Ching reading that i promised long ago, on our group endeavour.
from Liber CCVXI
45 THE ZHUI HEXAGRAM
Water of YoniZHUI: Collection; to the shrine repair
and sacrifice the greatest victories there!Alone, art helpless; call thy right ally;
With him, even small prayers earn heaven's swift reply.
Baffled, yet struggling, thou shalt cease to sigh.
Success excuses boldness; recollect
then to be firm in virtue and correct!
Weep for thy loneliness - but still aim high!the Wilhelm-Baynes translation :
** Hexagram 45 – Ts’ui – Gathering Together [Massing]**THE JUDGMENT
GATHERING TOGETHER. Success.
The king approaches his temple.
It furthers one to see the great man.
This brings success. Perseverance furthers.
To bring great offerings creates good fortune.
It furthers one to undertake something.THE IMAGE
Over the earth, the lake:
The image of GATHERING TOGETHER.
Thus the superior man renews his weapons
In order to meet the unforeseen.This Hexagram is usually connected to big investments, often shared ones, and some higher purpose.
The Judgement contains some of I Ching's most powerful concepts: 'creating success', 'harvest', 'good fortune', 'seeing great people'.The king provides the focal point for the gathering of people, wealth, energy and emotion and such amassement (gathering) is oriented towards a shared goal.
The people are called on here to sacrifice the biggest and best of their livestock.
A lake higher than the earth stands for an irrigation reservoir: a crucial investment in cultivation, which also contains the risk of flooding within itself.This hexagram very often describes group enterprise: the necessity of a defined common goal to gather the people around the king, as well as the i sacrifices required of the group's members.
There is high emotional intensity in the moving line texts: 'a hug, smiles, distress, sighs and tears' ( due to efforts to synchronize feelings and deeds with the higher purpose); but every single line also speaks of being 'without fault' - and that's the only hexagram where this is so.
