Tarot Astrology Libra 2024 Jewish & Western Hermetic Correspondences according to the Tarot Netivot system
Feedback, comments and questions are welcome.
We entered the astrological month of Libra on September 23 of this week. The Major Arcana card Gevurah or XI ‘Justice’ represents the Western Hermetic Tradition calendar. The first decan of Libra is represented by the Two of Swords. On September 22, we entered the Week of the Waning Moon according to the Tarot Netivot system. This is represented by the Two of Pentacles.
You will notice that the entire top row of our Tarot Time Board, representing the Western Hermetic tradition, is filled with new cards from the Tabula Mundi Tarot Silver Edition by M.M.Melleen. This works with the Solar Calendar. These are the correspondences that Benebell uses when working with the SKT and astrology.
The bottom row, represents the Jewish calendar according to the Tarot Netivot system. The card for the Jewish month of Elul is V Tzovah ‘Sacred Servant’. I am using the Lurianic Tarot by Basilikon — one of the few truly Jewish Tarot decks out there and certainly the most beautiful; and the hand painted Illuminated Tarot Starlight Rainbows edition. This works 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. These are taken from various decks in my collection.
It has been over three weeks since I last revised my Tarot Time Board. This results in all new animal, plant, and crystal cards with the exception of the Rabbit which remains. New card additions: Elephant, Spider, Beaver, Tiger, Bull, Garnet, Peridot, Agate, Cat’s Eye, Blue Sapphire, Carnelian, Topaz, Aloe, Sage, Hawthorn, and Dandelion. Note that Topaz and Aloe appear together on the same card XI in the Telluric Tarot, which represents the Major Arcana card ‘Strength’.
Two correspondences are shared between both systems. These are Sapphire and Carnelian.
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.
