V Bishop C.H. Mason Synthesis

With the Hoodoo Tarot Let us begin with the Six of Coins ...

We see hands holding what appears as money .. two dice showing a 2 and a 5 are on the table

To me straight away I thought of gambling, a risk on some level let us see what the books speaks of ...

The Plant: Four-leaf Clover - Good luck, good fortune ...

Some of the Keywords include Charitable giving, generosity , financial aid ... there are more layers to this card ....

XV Miss Robinson

Plant: Belladonna, Hemlock

This may talk about being in a situation that appears dangerous, unhealthy, addictions and in being obsessive.. to be aware of repeated patterns, bad habits. Can also speak of others who are behaving badly in your life.

V Bishop C.H. Mason

Plant: Cedar, Mustard

Trust in teachers, guides and elders. Learning or teaching others. Speaks of unspoken Rules.... Group cohesion, Traditions, Authority Leaders.

XIV Father Simms

Plant: Peavine

Review position regarding inquiry. Not always Black and White, Moderation, not always excess. Consider all options before making a decision.

I want to read a little more into the plants and then look at the Sibyls Oraculum cards will update later...

Sibyls Oraculum

Death - A Core Issue Card

It Speaks of its Key Symbols

Gebel al-Mawta a.k.a. the Mountain of the Dead, at Siwa Oasis in Libya.. The hill contains several tombs that date from the 26th Dynasty and the Greco-Roman Periods of Kemet. It represents the perception by the living. The remains of bones and artifacts of the nobles buried there only signify their apparent end.

It does go on to discuss the Religio-Mythological Association -Honorable Ancestors - and has a Commentary Speaking of Death as the end... There of course is more depth to the book as it elaborates in discussion re The source of our pain and longing is whatever we accepted to be accurate in relation to time and space. etc ...

In Further part in regards to this Card Death it asks specific Questions ..

E.g. Are you focused on how much more you could have received instead of how much you've already received?

Do you believe you can lose what is truly yours?

and there are more Questions asked...

I am not going to share everything here online but will continue my study in my own journal .. and share my thoughts tomorrow when I continue with day 2 ...
