IN THIS ISSUE:
I. World Servers' Spread, January, 2010...This month's World Server's spread started out as a nagging question, but then it unspooled like a well-worn sweater, pouring forth from a single broken thread into a great mass of curly yarn. For Christmas I asked for the Madame Lenormand Tarot published by Lo Scarabeo. The request was sparked by an article that Mary Greer wrote in 2008 about Lenormand's association with Etteilla and other Tarot occultists of her time. I'm sure it was not an original impulse, but Mary made me curious to figure out the degree to which Lenormand's ideas are actually present in these Tarot minors, and the degree to which they might be related to the formal Tarot pack at their root... http://www.tarotarkletters.com/2010/01/world-servers-spread-january-2010.html
II. 2010 Transits, Retrogrades and January NewMoon ... .It’s time to write our yearly overview of planetary motions, and take a closer look at how the "footprints of the Gods" might play out over 2010. I will also say a few words about the current NewMoon at the end of this article, but the bulk of my comments will be directed towards the year's larger trends. ...http://www.tarotarkletters.com/2010/01/2010-transits-retrogrades-and-january-newmoon.html
Our publication date and time corresponds to the New Moon each month. This month the Moon is conjunct the Sun on Friday, January 15, 2010. As an astrologer-symbolist, I habitually tie my activities to the cycle of the Moon. If you would like, you can use the Tarot University ArkLetters to help you track the moon's phase:
