Monday, a day ruled by the Moon’s quiet governance and guarded by Gabriel, the Archangel of waters who speaks in dreams. The tides within and without rest under His care, and today the Moon leans into the mutable waters of Pisces after her watch in Aquarius. The full Moon has passed, but its silver still…
The Eight of Swords rises in the sequence like a lattice of thought that has forgotten the song of its Source. Eight is the double of four, the square multiplied, the fixed order reiterated until it becomes a prison. The figure stands bound, eyes veiled, surrounded by the vertical blades of the intellect, each one…
Heightened sensations hold the same cold shine as metals drawn from deep earth by a craftsman who claims himself sovereign. The ancients named him Demiurge when his geometry bound the soul into walls and markets; his craft builds streets with edges that never bend, corners that collect shadows where breath feels absent, and towers whose…
Elimas is a magus whose craft is woven from the fibres of the planetary loom. The text names him Bar-Jesus, son of a name already luminous with Messianic weight, but his service bends away from the straight path. When Paul and Barnabas arrive, drawn by the hunger of the governor for truth, Elimas moves to…
The commemoration of Saint Dominic today is stained with the shadow of a wrong that has yet to be repaired. His name stands at the limen between the Marian vision and the memory of the Albigensian Crusade; a memory of banners raised in the name of Christ, and yet driven by the hunger of earthly…
The King of Wands belongs to the primal court, where flame has no need of fuel, and the Word remains unbroken in its source. Around him the Seraphim burn with a purity no mortal vision can endure; circles of living fire, faces hidden, their song an eternal single act of praise. There the sceptre of…
There exists a gate through which the Spirit engraves its signature upon flesh and mind; the Ascendant. In the soul of Carl Gustav Jung, that gate stood as a stone portal; a crystal dial, turning at the edge of the world, set beneath the watch of Saturn in the cold, lucid airs of Aquarius. The…
A Martian Oracle for its Venusian Exile If interested in a personal liturgy, please consult this portal. Beneath the weight of Saturn’s hour, as the Moon pressed her pale palm against the cardinal earth of Capricorn at the Medium Coeli, the sword of Mars slid across the frontier. It abandoned the mutable clay of Virgo,…
Today, the sixth of August, the Christian calendar sets apart the Mystery of the Transfiguration; the luminous moment on Mount Tabor when Christ is revealed as uncontainable radiance. The scene unfolds with gravitas; it is when the veil between worlds becomes diaphanous, shimmering with the interplay of Law and Prophecy, shadow and Word. The narrative,…
A Lunar Oracle for the Theotokos’ Sleep If interested in a personal liturgy and reading, please consult this portal. The Mirror opens itself to receive the oracles of the Four Winds, beneath the Moon waxing in Sagittarius, herself poised upon the ladder of mutable fire, as the Marian quietude falls over all creation. The ritual…
