All the 5’s in the deck are demanding cards – the number five relates to the planet Mars, which can sometimes have a disruptive destructive energy. On the other hand though, Martian power, strength and determination are necessary attributes to break through obstacles and difficulties. The Lord of Worry is mostly about anxiety around events which threaten our financial or physical security – notice this card indicates the anxiety, rather than the event itself. Often, when we are under the influence of this card, we worry needlessly about situations which have not yet come to pass. Sometimes, rather than our anxieties being centred on finances, they can revolve around basic family security – whether our partner cares about us, whether things in our home environment are as we would wish them to be. You might find yourself worrying about your children, your parents, your partner.

Anxiety has a nasty habit of creating yet more anxiety. We worry. Because we worry, we become stressed. As the stress level mounts we feel our ability to cope recedes. That makes us feel vulnerable. And then of course we get more anxious. What is needed here is a method of breaking into the cycle of worry and distress, in order to clear away confusion and get to the heart of things. It often helps, when you feel like this, to write down what you feel worried about. And then you can go over the list deciding what is real, and what imaginary. Once you’ve whittled away the phantoms, you will be left with a list of more realistic things. Now cross off all those matters that either you cannot alter, or have not yet made themselves manifest. Now you have only the real things to worry about left. With a bit of luck, your list should be much much shorter now. Therefore you can direct all the energy you were using to worry into finding workable solutions to your difficulties.

Development for Beginners: With that said, when you are at the beginning stages of your intuition development, I would recommend practicing this technique on smaller-scale decisions like, ‘Which route should I take to work today?’ or ‘Should I go to the party tonight?’ not on life-altering ones, such as ‘Should I marry my significant other?’ or ‘Should I quit my job?’

Reversed Cards: Have you ever heard the term crying poor? This term is often used to describe someone who always has their hand out, always asking but never giving. These people believe the world and everyone in it owe them something, even though they have more than enough to take care of their own needs. The shadow aspect of the Five of Pentacles shines a light on the parts of ourselves that take but never give back. We all do it in one form or another. We all try to get as much as we can for as little as possible. If this card is showing up in the mirror aspect, the universe is calling you out and letting you know it is time to start giving.

Reversed Cards: You may have heard the term retrograde in respect to planets, but what about for tarot cards? The idea of a card being in retrograde may very well be a new concept to most of you, but keep an open mind. When planets retrograde, they are said to appear as if traveling backward. There is a key word here—appear. When a card shows up in the retrograde aspect, things may appear to be going backward. But there is a reason, and you need to pay very close attention. This can mean that it is time to go back over the information you already have or that you need to literally backtrack over the very path you just walked because you missed something.

Elements of the Psychic World: With McDougall’s help, Rhine was hired as a Professor of Psychology and began developing ESP card tests. By 1935 Rhine’s research was so large that it moved out of the psychology department into its own separate unit, which later became known as the parapsychology laboratory at Duke University (see Rhine Research Center).
