Card of the Day - Jan 8, 2012

Card # 34
Oracle of Visions

You have been living a life of routine and rules. You have been going round and round like this unicorn who has been going round a pole. You have been like a wind up toy. It is time now for you to realize your dream and what you really want to do. The world is your oyster and if you want, you could fly up to the sky like this unicorn just did in the card. Reach for the stars. You do not need to be limited to what your other friends or colleagues are doing. Do not be afraid to be different. You are unique and your friends admire and look up to you, even though they do not say so. Reach for your dreams and break the glass globe surrounding you. Get out of your comfort zone and explore new worlds. 

Card of the Day - Jan 6, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the Oracle of Visions is Card # 14.

This card shows a woman who has so many talents in her hair and in her mind. In the card I can see a paint brush, palette, masks, quill pen, music notes, a statue, a musical instrument and a mirror. You are creative and can paint, sing, write and make music. You are very talented and have the power and the ability to do anything you like and be what you want to be. But all these things are ideas and thoughts in your mind. If you put them into practice you will benefit greatly. Do not hesitate to make your dreams a reality. She is wearing a dress which covers completely with a lacey bow tied around her neck so she feels a bit stifled by the routine and conventions of life, and can only break free from it by doing her own thing and carrying out her creative pursuits. Her eyes say that she knows what she wants and has her goals set in her mind.

From the Book: Each day is a new canvas to paint upon. Make sure your picture is full of life and happiness, and at the end of the day you don't look at it and wish you had painted something different. 

Oracle of Visions

Oracle of Visions is a wonderful and unique deck, which I have acquired recently and I will be doing daily Card of the Day readings from it. The cards are more of an oracle deck rather than tarot deck but the pictures are so deep and insightful, with so many symbols, that its deep meanings sometimes surpasses even the most complex tarot cards. They are made up of eternal archetypes and make us question human nature and ourselves. Like the Osho Zen tarot, it has its own philosophy, but we are free to interpret it the way we like. This fabulous deck is by Ciro Marchetti, the genius behind The Gilded Tarot, Tarot of Dreams and the Legacy of the Divine Tarot. You can check out his website to know more about him and to follow his works. Since I have just acquired the deck, I will be looking at the cards for the first time along with you all and I welcome you to join me on this journey of self-discovery. Please be open to the interpretation of the cards as there is no right or wrong meaning and we only see what we are supposed to see at that moment.The name of the deck is self-explanatory, it is an oracle of visions, it helps us to visualize and in turn increase our intuition. Marchetti also has a personal penchant for jesters, masks, Victorian costumes and mechanical devices which makes it truly different and interesting. Let's begin with exploring this wealth of images.... :-)

Card of the Day - Jan 4, 2012

It's strange how many people I met yesterday who were either down with fever, tired or bed ridden for some reason or the other. Every time, I would remember the 9 of Swords which came up yesterday as the Card of the Day. The mood in general was a bit negative and gloomy yesterday and it is good that we are onto a new day and a new card. Get well soon all my near and dear ones and please take adequate care and rest. That includes my best friend Sherry and my brother Bheesham. <3<3<3 Love you !!

The Card of the Day today is 3 of Pentacles from the Robin Wood Tarot. The card shows a matured man working very hard towards his goal. He is creative, artistic and perfect in his job. This card shows that you are indeed very hardworking and are doing your job well. If you continue on this path, you will definitely complete your work on time. Do not lose confidence as you have what it takes. This is great encouragement for me as I am currently working on my PhD formalities which have been hanging in the air for quite a while. Work hard and concentrate on your task, you will get your rewards eventually when they are due.

9 of Swords
The Robin Wood Tarot

This is usually a troublesome card to come up in a reading. Today could be a hectic day for you and yo may have some troubles and worries eating you up. You may have stress, headaches and probably hangovers. This might make it difficult for you to concentrate and focus, but don't worry this too shall pass. You may feel lonely and depressed at this time. Also the weather may make you feel like sleeping or spending time in bed.

9 of Cups
Robin Wood Tarot

This guy looks like he has eaten and has drunk rather merrily in the New Year! Does this look like any of you? He seems to be in a very merry mood, but he seems to have overindulged a bit. Today you can still enjoy and relax for a while and enjoy the beginnings of the New Year.Purple and red are colours of royalty and indulgence. While its good to indulge once in a while, do not make it a habit or let it rule your life. Take care of your health, and if you have been neglecting it for a while, visit a doctor. Overall, life is good and friends and family are near. 

Happy New Year 2012!!
