This week I'll be using the Tarot of the Master, created by Giovanni Vacchetta and published by Lo Scarabeo. Along with it, I'll be drawing from the Paracelsus Oracle, published by Lo Scarabeo with instructions written by Gina di Roberto. The cards drawn for today are the King of Coins and Cauda Draconis (Tail of the Dragon):
This king is literally making money, stamping and engraving gold coins. The coin on the wall with its hourglass design is telling; he must know his time is running short to amass his fortune. But a mindset intent on accumulating is often based on a fear of scarcity, even if there is no actual deprivation. Perhaps instead he could invest his time, money and energy - not just to help himself but to help others. Friends might become his greatest resource. Cauda Draconis suggests a doorway leading out or completion. It encourages us to assess how things have turned out now that we are on the back side of them. Was this a wise use of our resources, or is there a better way?
Back in the day, I couldn’t get hold of Tarot of the Master, and somewhere there was a black and white copy you could download, so I downloaded that and printed it in dark green on cream-coloured cardstock and then made a custom tuckbox for it. It isn’t laminated and it’s on 60 lb cardstock but it’s quite pretty. I should hunt it up and send you a photo. (Judy)
