Today's Outlook for
Sunday March 18, 2007
Yesterday | TODAY | Tomorrow
Today's emotionally sensitive Pisces New Moon is a powerful Total Eclipse of the Sun that brings secrets out into the open. Its dynamic square with passionate Pluto provokes fear-based responses that can arise if we feel threatened. Mercury, now moving direct again, returns to Pisces to stimulate our imagination. Our efforts may be thwarted, yet it's difficult to know exactly what's happening if others aren't being forthcoming with their true intentions.

Leo (Jul 23 - Aug 22)
Even if you aren't the overly jealous type, today someone's actions could make you turn green with envy. Of course, emotional possessiveness never leads anywhere positive, but knowing that won't necessarily change your feelings. Don't get stuck in an unbreakable cycle; relinquishing control might just be the most reliable path to happiness.
The Hanged Man
This Deck: Old English
Theme: Issues some to a head, making it possible to clear the slate and start over.
Astro Association: Neptune
Element: Water
Number: 12
Alias: Sacrifice
General Meaning: Traditionally, the card known as the Hanged Man usually indicates a lack of ability to help oneself through independent action. This energy is arrested and awaiting judgment. With this card, there is no avenue for the will to regain control until the situation has passed.
This represents a good time to be philosophical, to study and meditate upon the position you find yourself in, and form resolutions for the moment you become free again. Only those who possess wisdom, patience and optimism will be able to see through limitations, including possible humiliation, to grasp the inspiring lesson one can gain from such an experience.

Your creativity continues to manifest in every area of your life today. A sense of excitement permeates your daily routine, and at times you may lack focus. Clear communication is important today.

Cancer (June 21 - Jul 22)
It may seem hopeless today as you attempt to take care of chores that you have recently ignored. There could be so much to do that you don't even know where to begin. If you are overwhelmed, don't try to do it all; that will only discourage you further. You'll feel better about yourself if you narrow your focus and complete just a few things well.
The Devil
This Deck: Folklore
Theme: Put convention aside and be empowered by revealing your passionate nature.
Astro Association: Capricorn
Element: Earth
Number: 15
Alias: Tempation
General Meaning: What has traditionally been known as the Devil card expresses the realm of the Taboo, the culturally rejected wildness and undigested shadow side that each of us carries in our subconscious. This shadow is actually at the core of our being, which we cannot get rid of and will never succeed in taming. From its earliest versions, which portrayed a vampire-demon, this card evoked the Church-fueled fear that a person could "lose their soul" to wild and passionate forces.
The image which emerged in the mid-1700's gives us a more sophisticated rendition -- that of the "scapegoated Goddess," whose esoteric name is Baphomet. Volcanic reserves of passion and primal desire empower her efforts to overcome the pressure of stereotyped roles and experience true freedom of soul. Tavaglione's highly evolved image (Stella deck) portrays the magical formula for harnessing and transmuting primal and obsessive emotions into transformative energies. As a part of the Gnostic message of Tarot, this fearsome passion and power must be reintegrated into the personality, to fuel the soul's passage from mortal to immortal.
