The Wheel of the Jewish Calendar made a major shift when we left the month of Iyar and entered the month of Sivan represented by Major Arcana card XIV Neviah ‘Creatrix’ on June 3, 2024.  The third decan of Gemini begins on June 11.

The Wheel of the Western Hermetic Calendar made a major shift as we left the month of Taurus and entered the month of Gemini represented by Major Arcan card VI Ohevet ‘Choice/Lovers’ on May 21, 2024.

The bottom row, representing the Jewish calendar according to the Tarot Netivot system now shows the Two of Cups ‘Engagement’ for the beginning of the week of the Waxing Moon on June 10.
 
The top line features Tarot cards as they relate to today’s Western Hermetic Astrology using primarily the Tabula Mundi Tarot Silver Edition by M.M. Melleen.  This works with the Solar Calendar.  These are the correspondences that Benebell Wen uses when working with the SKT and astrology.
 
The bottom line features Tarot cards as they relate to the Hebrew calendar according to Tarot Netivot.  I am using the Lurianic Tarot by Basilikon — one of the few truly Jewish Tarot decks out there and certainly one of the most beautiful; and the hand painted Illuminated Tarot Starlight Rainbows edition.  These work primarily with the Lunar Calendar.
 
The middle cards are animal, crystal, and plant correspondences according to T. Susan Chang in the book Tarot Correspondences.  These are tied to the Major Arcana cards as they appear in Tarot Netivot representing each Jewish month,  Jewish holidays, and major lunar and solar events as well as to the Western Hermetic Major Arcana in the top rows.  These are taken from various decks in my collection. 

New additions for the month of Gemini:  Magpies; Emerald; Iris Agate; Calcite; Rose Quartz; and Tourmaline; and Orchid.  It is interesting to note that two of these correspondences do occur together on the same card.  These are Orchid and Tourmaline on the Major Arcana card XXI for the Tellurian Tarot deck.

New additions for the month of Sivan are Dog; Elk; Horse; Centaur; Lime; Oak and Birch.
 

There is one overlap of correspondences between the two systems for this period:  Topaz.  This gem is also a carry over from the month of Taurus.  Historically, Topaz was valued in ancient Greece for its properties of endowing the wearer with increased strength and protection from harm.  In medieval times, it was used to protect one from enchantments and black magic.  St. Hildegard recommended topaz to cure failing sight.  Other common beliefs were that it could protect from accidents and fires; and if kept under a pillow, it could ward off nightmares.  Contemporary associations connect topaz with the solar plexus chakra.  It is believed to increase personal power, confidence and abundance.  (www.gemsociety.org/)


Existing cards will be exchanged with new incoming cards as the wheel of time turns.  Lunar phases change every 3 - 4 days; decans change every 10 days.  Months change every 28 - 31 days.  Note:  I am working with 2 different systems to mark the months, one solar and the other lunar.  I shall try to post a new board every time there is significant movement.
