This tarot reading begins on a Sydney train station on a rainy day. My flower-and-glitter-laden pushbike stays at home as I choose a day without the need to wear a fluoro yellow rain suit to get myself to work warm and dry. Considering the wintry rainy weather Sydney has been experiencing as we enter into … Continue reading
Tarot Reading For The Collective ~ November © 2011 Sarah Barry

Dearest Tarot-Reading-for-the-Collective-Enthusiasts and Googled-Tarot-And-This-Is-What-I-Got-First-Time-Explorers: Welcome to an Augusturian adventure that takes us from The Sun to the Knight of Pentacles with a smattering of Wands, a Sword and a Pentacle in between (not a Cup in sight). Slipping away from The Sun towards the King of Wands may have seemed like a bold plan when … Continue reading

Judgment has spoken: Theoretical understanding is no longer of primary importance. Rather, it is our intentions and actions that need our utmost attention. Judgment (referred to as ‘Aeon’ in this deck) wants to make sure that before it lets us go we have understood the importance of keeping our intentions pure and transparent. We have to know how … Continue reading

Strength pulls us close, hugging us tightly, whispering urgently to remind us of our most powerful lessons to date. She can see the Devil approaching and wants to impart as much knowledge as possible. She knows that soon the Devilish archetype will catch up with us, causing us to forget some of our still-fragile wisdom. … Continue reading
