This should drive the fundies nuts!

If I maintain my usual stream of blaming others, I'd say PJ made me do it. But that's not true, nor has it been true of other silliness. In each case I have chosen and I need to come clean here before I shift into borderline personality disorder in which it is always someone else's fault.

Here we go with the Tarot, no less.

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

This is a nice balance with PJ's being the Moon. I have become especially drawn to the moon after my first stint working in ABQ. The sky seems so much more vast and the moon and stars so much closer than in California.

Though in looking at the Tarot many years ago, I rather thought I was the King of Cups (and even wrote a sonnet about it). I believe it is the card of theologians.


Well, this should send the spiritually nervous scuttling back to their burrows muttering "occult" and other scary words. There are things in this world that I fear, and some of them are spiritual, but Tarot cards are not among them. Neither do I turn to cards or horoscopes or fortune tellers to unfold the future for me. As PJ puts it: "Don't really buy into it, but it's fun."

Now, where is all that youthful energy?
