Interactive Tarot Online Reading for The Sun

Your Chosen Card – The Sun Upright Mage Deck

When upright, the Sun is a positive card that typically symbolizes a period of success, achievement, recognition, warmth, happiness, popularity, and contentment. Health improves and personal relationships prosper. Work situations and new ventures go well. Because of the Suns connection with Leo and the fifth house of the natural zodiac, modern astrologers believe that this card can also signify romance, marriage, creative self-expression, the birth of children, or other matters related to offspring. Now is a time of clarity, illumination, and enlightenment. Ponder the words of the bard: ‘How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a weary world’ (William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, 1600).

Here are some snippets from a few of my favorite books

Complete Book of Tarot: My interest in astrology was sparked in the late 1950s when my father put a dime into a machine at an amusement park to purchase his sun sign horoscope. The accuracy of the report was astounding. How could a machine know so much about my father? I had to find out, so I went to the library and began to read every book I could find about astrology. Before long I was casting charts and making predictions for family and friends. Astrology appeared to have some validity, but I couldnt explain how it worked scientifically. I was also a budding scientist at the time and loved reading books about the natural sciences.

Development for Beginners: Once you have gotten into a calm, relaxed state, create a mental image of a pen and paper lying next to your bed and you writing down your dream.

Elements of the Psychic World: According to one version of the story, the Palatine was a Dutch ship that left Holland in 1752 with a host of immigrants. The ship was travelling to Philadelphia but off the coast of New England it was damaged in a storm. The crew killed the captain, robbed the passengers and abandoned them, taking off in the lifeboats. The unmanned ship drifted towards Block Island, a place so dangerous for passing ships that a band of land pirates called the Block Island Wreckers made their fortune from salvaging wrecks. Curiously in the case of the Palatine, the pirates saved the lives of the passengers before plundering the ship. One woman, who had been driven insane by the trauma of the mutiny, refused to leave the ship even when it was set alight by the pirates. According to lore her screams could be heard as the flaming wreck drifted out to sea. In other versions of the story the pirates were not so merciful, but plundered the ship and set it alight with the living still on board. Yet another version claims that the captain and crew deliberately wrecked the ship so they could plunder it and rob the passengers.
