Second Decan 10º-20º Dec.2nd – Dec.11th ♐️
• Mars in Sagittarius
• Ninth House of Expansion
• Guided by the “Nine of Wands“
During this second decan with Mars in Sagittarius, the “Unified Esoteric Tarot” indicates this is a time of “Spontaneous” energy. In this decan, the planetary influence of Mars in Sagittarius is about being uninhibited when a sudden change take place. The mutable Sagittarian spirit can naturally adapt to any form of change as long as there is flexibility for them to speak their mind and to explore further into the situation. With Mars encouraging inner willpower and Sagittarius’ enthusiasm as seekers of truth and knowledge this will motivate the spontaneous personality of this sign to explore aspects of who they are based on their experiences.
The “Nine of Wands“ is about finding that self belief and inner strength to continue onward when a challenge has occurred. At this point, you have worked hard through success and setbacks. Though it has been an exhaustive journey you have the willpower to fully take this experience to completion. Avoid any uncertainty (no second guessing!) and know that you have the courage to move ahead. The gift is right around the corner!
The “Forest of Enchantment” focusses on the “Nine of Spells” as to “what is most desired and feared”.
Here we see the “wise one” (witch) working “spell magic” (intentions) of within to without. Through one’s own focus and willpower you are able to create your intention. Nothing can hold you back as you have experienced obstacles before. You are empowered and now have that spiritual knowledge to manifest what you need.
The “Lumina Tarot” has the “Nine of Wands” as recognizing your enthusiasm to continue on your path as it will lead you to a positive experience. Do not let any previous obstacles weaken you. This card is about courage and being committed to your goals. If you are exhausted by your efforts take a moment to rest and reflect on what has been done thus far. A recharge may reignite that enthusiasm to proceed ahead.
The “Tarot of the Holy Light” is asking to be flexible during unforeseen circumstances and to work with unexpected allies during such times. Set aside differences when confined in the same scenario. Work together to learn and grow from this experience. This is a card of spiritual awakening after a turbulent time. Take the time needed to heal and do not try to be heroic in your efforts if you are physically/emotionally depleted. This will be more harmful and its best to cut your losses rather than risking your own well being.
✶Please note! The assigned astrological decan on the featured tarot cards does not correspond with the current astrological sign and planet placement. The “Unified Esoteric Tarot” has its own astrological correspondences that are used as guides within each card when doing a reading.
In addition, the Golden Dawn has its own system of astrological correspondences that I will make specific reference too when doing tarot astrology readings. These correspondences are found primarily in the Thoth Tarot and other similar inspired traditional decks.
