Seven Moons Oracle 12. The Knife

Seven Moons Oracle 12. The Knife

Seven Moons Oracle 12: The Knife

As you form attachments and relationships the cords of life and love are bound. This is even more true at a hand-fasting, as your life cords are literally and symbolically tied together. Every relationship you have forms these cords, and some are cords you no longer want or need. This is where The Knife comes in. Often called “The Devil” in other oracle and tarot decks, this card is seduction and attachment to the material and physical pleasures. Its not that this is bad, per say, but that some of these attachments and pleasures are not all good or bad. They are in a way also knifes, that need careful balance and careful tending. To much of a good thing is possible and too much of a relationship is also possible. Things can turn sour and become burdensome, difficult or hurtful to you. You may need to look at your relationships, habits, life, and people who you spend time with, your physical and material world may be hindering your growth, you need to take heed, care and cut any cords you no longer need, want or have become bad. In the end your life will be better for it. Also remember any cord you cut may be something that helps your relationship with this person or thing, you can re-form your relationship when you have both healed and their is no longer any toxic attachment.

Reversed:

Generally the reverse of this card shows that you are now in a toxic relationship with a person, or object or at work. Things are not good for you and you feel bound, fearful and dominated. Yet you may also feel that your current life is luxurious and had more than it fair share of hedonism, and maybe that’s because you accept things as they are, even though they are wrong for others. You like your life, but things aren’t all ok, and how long will it be ok for you? Are you about to be cut loose yourself? If you live in fear and doubt for your future, this life isn’t ok, and it is scary to use the knife, but will someone else use it for you? I doubt it.

Reaper Sleeper (Song)

I do not wish for a kiss

I do not wish for that bliss

I just want a normal nights sleep

Reap the quiet so I might

Covid has us stresses beyond the scope

And Donald needs walk the rope

We never thought we would be on this slope

can I cope

I cant cope

Resort to reaping my sleep

Sowing nothing in the deep

Creep creep creeks

Oxygen (Song)

You’re my oxygen, one breath of you, I was hooked for life

You’re my love friend, one kiss of you, I was tired my wife

It’s our love again, it lasts and lasts, even at the darkest night

Be careful with me, I’m a gentle precious miss who’s bright

Oxygen, breathe in

Life, heave in

We, can be in

Love

Joined at the hip

Kiss the lips

Lasts the length of the oxygen

Seven Moons Oracle 11. Patience

Seven moons oracle 11. Patience

Seven Moons Oracle 11. Patience:

The three stones placed by the god of patience Iamoni are in the bottom of a secretive pond in the middle of a field of blade grass beyond the reach of any mortal. It is said when they are finally warn away by the relentless shallow waters very slow grinding, the universe shall end and be recreated from the three stones which contain the spark of life for the next universe after this. Iamoni had said themselves (for patience can have no gender) that the moons shall pass by their sun more than 10000 billion times before the blade grass dies and the waters recede and the three stones be exposed to even the slightest possibility they be found by any person whom could live till then. It is unlikely then that anyone will be able to get to them and try and take them or destroy them and it they are safe in their pond until then. They will return before that day to watch and wait at them till all suns are dead and all the life is dead and Iamoni will continue until nothing but those stones exist and then in the ensuring explosion of the new universe, they shall again be born and start the process anew.

Patience is a card with therefor a obvious meaning, beauty, life, death and many things require time and waiting and it is now that perhaps you have entered a point in which you will have to wait. The hourglass that might be a just visible shape in this card tells you that the time will come, but until it does patience is one of the universal virtues of all life.

Seven Moons Oracle 10: Death

Seven Moon Oracle: Death

Seven Moon Oracle 10: Death

Death is also about life, for one cannot exist without the other. Death comes to all living creatures and that means it is a natural thing. It is something that must come at the end of life, should that be when we would want it to or not. As we live, death is ever present, be it the death of cells, plants, other living things. Our cycle towards death always requires the passage of others. Energy comes from life into death, and then when death comes it creates new life, as life rots it feeds plants and that feeds fruit, vegetables and animals and we eat those, and as so it will be when we die. Being a part of this cycle is essential to the creation of new life and without it, all that would exist is nothing.

Death as card is not an indicator of the end of your life, it usually means the end of a relationship, project, task or simply the end of the day.

Reversed:

You are blocking a ending. You need to let go. If one thing never ends it means the next thing cannot begin and if this cycle stops, you would be likely finding yourself in dire straits. Yes, you can mourn, you can say goodbye, but also know that the new is coming and that without this passing the new cannot exist.

Seven Moons Oracle: 9. Hanged (SFW version)

Seven Moons Oracle: 9. Hanged (SWF Version)

Seven Moons Oracle 9. Hanged.

It is pretty clear to many what this card is about. No, its not all about fun times in the bedroom with your one or more significant people. I would like to say it was, but its not. Its actually about gaining knowledge, and that includes, well carnal knowledge. The wish to make a sacrifice in order to gain the knowledge of what something is like, the means to bring it about and gain the joy of that knowledge.

Reversed:

When reversed this card is about selfishness, cowardice and the hiding of knowledge from others. The telling of lies and the distance you create when you tell them.

Btw:

Their is a NSFW nude version of this art, however you will have to pay me for access to the file. If your interested my contact details are on the commission page.

Va-cent Seed

Of task to keep my mind at ease

Windy mind full of ideas and nothing to please

Needed guidance, but have no way to seize

A field of nothing to harvest but my own thoughts of displease

Please oh please, make me feel useful

I am eager too please

To find, search or create something

To make, to share, to connect with a breeze

A seed on fertile ground, waiting to grow

You are my rain, my sunlight to rise

Will you let me grow up and show you I am me …eeeeese

Feeding the Clock (Song)

1. Clock

In my mouth

the bit is

Block the pain

From whips and pins

As it rides me

Rides me to win

2. South

——

Clock men, all on our backs

Tick tock

None of us win

They all, get the Champaign

We get scars, and a carrot if we win

——

3. Bull

All to the bull god

The mighty horn and throb

A line to go up for no real reason

We’re dead even though we’re living

——

4. Straw

How can the clouds save us?

Sounds like a lie to placate us

Subdued in a short mess

Mother tells us eat our cress

Feeding

Feeding the clock

Pushing the gears and stock

For one more goddam hour

Never get no time to rock

We are just feeding

Feeding the clock

Seven Moons Oracle: 8. Strength

Seven Moons Oracle: 8. Strength

Strength is the card of passion and, well, strength. Your conviction, you love, your ability to pull through and do the thing. Your skills, your practice, your life has lead up to you drawing the bow of life on the course to its target. It will hit, as you have the strength to get that bow drawn.

The lioness is often the leader of the hunt, and as such so should you be the leader of your hunt, maybe its for a new job, or the shopping or a actual literal hunt. Whatever is happening you are on the hunt and this card is telling you, use your skill, cunning, guile, lust, whatever, to get you to your target.

Reversed

This card when drawn reversed is somewhat the opposite, as is it most of the time. You have not done the right learning, or enough practice, you are not strong enough for the task ahead. You may come off as being inept, silly or worse corrupt. Or perhaps someone else is leading the hunting team down such a course. You need to practice your skills, hone your bow, get your aim on course, or else things are going to go awry.

Gallefae: part one

Down the path of a maze of fasts, grows the mast of a tree I have never before seen. I may hath fauna and free, upping my great hunger for I saw upon a mushroom thee a fae of new life.

Bright blessings to you, my great friend. I shall call thee? Whom?

My breath did think for a second, for I knew that not giving my true name would be a great idea, for a fae asking it is almost knowing it, and having it will give it a power upon me that no other hath posses. So I had an idea, to give a falsehood, a trick name for a tricksy creature. A fae shouldn’t be given your real name, no matter the cost, for the cost of giving it would be greater even still.

My name is the night sky above us, a star that shines the darkest yet can be seen by all. My reply seemed to satisfy the fae.

Ah. You are well versed in the law of the fae. I am glad that you did come this way. For I have need of your labour.

Again, I knew that I could not agree totally to what the fae wished. Behold for it still could ask me to count the atoms in a tree and I would be cursed to do so until I finished such a task even if I died beforehand. So I said,

“I shall only agree if you do half the work, and my reward is a measure of riches beyond the king of the ocean.”

And this the Fae did smile at me and qouthed It is done, so it shall upon completion of the task for which I will do half.

The fae did then tell me the task, was in fact to steal the Treasury of said king of the ocean. I was flummoxed at such a task, for it was the king of the ocean whom was but a fae himself.

”A rather ambitious proposal, methinks you hath a plan of great theft to accomplish it?” I changed my stance, upon the rock of which I was standing.

Indeed. The fae’s eyes said and we passed into the realm of the fae. A many tales can be told of the realm, ones of forests, castles, caves, dark and light in play beyond imaginings of newly formed ideologies. A place of both life, magic, death, and the astral play amongst all. A place of nothing but the most strange, but also strangely normal, of birds flying backwards, flowers pollinating bees, words writing people, and a rainbow that connects all together like a path that has no beginning or end.

Echidna Garden

Hiding from the other, my spines are protecting me

But also keeping me from, the joys of the outside

Doors shut, but I want to see your face, I want to feel your touch

We can’t do that though, their is no place to be us that’s not inside our own spines

Whine and whine all the time

We can’t sit, anymore

hurt each other we aren’t loving anymore

It’s not fine

It’s not fine

Its just time

The Gulf of Concrete

Look across the expanse

Beyond the mist and fog

You can only just see the other side

We curse our circumstance

Only wishes to flog

We have all been taken for a ride

By the man who holds the gun

Who tricked us, made to dance

By his illegitimate horrible garish hide

As he watches us silently die, I shall know he will not find

A heavenly spirit or hellish iffirit

Greater than the combined will we shall hate him with

Seven Moons Oracle: 7. Valor

Seven Moons Oracle: 7. Valor

Seven Moons Oracle Card 7. Valor

What exactly is Valor? It is courage, resilience, resistance, the ability to go on in tough times when things are not going so well. It is also the ability to see what you need to do to get through, make sure you are prepared to go the distance and also it is the courage to ask for help when you need it. When you need help, it’s ok to ask for it. Valour is about making sure we are aware we are not alone when we face the worst, and that there are others who have walked our path, even if there isn’t anyone here to help you now, you know that their spirit lives on in you and that can help you get to where you can get more physical assistance.

Valour Reversed

This card when drawn reversed is about the opposite of valour, which isn’t necessarily cowardice, more a lack of self-worth, a lack of feeling capable, or even feeling too sure of yourself, too proud to see that you are about to step off a cliff or get hurt. You may even hurt those you love, by having too much, or being unable to have enough, valour, and this is a time for you to seek our weather you have this, and how you can correct your course.

Scream inside your heart (song)

Down this alley in the dark night we walk

I can’t hold your hand, we can’t talk

Disinfected, twenty seconds

We may never meet again

I ask

Have you screamed inside your heart?

Are you ready for the air to go

Is your mask on tight, is it though?

A breath of fresh air may be deadly

We may never breath again

And I ask

Have you screamed inside your heart?

Powerless to hear the news

Another day and another due

In the night I hug you tight

We may never hug again

And I ask

Have you screamed inside your heart?

Have you screamed inside your heart?

Have you screamed inside your heart?

Have you screamed inside your heart?

It is all, that we can do now

It is all, that we are

It is waiting for a answer

We may never kiss again

And we ask

Have we screamed inside our heart?

Chicken in my pocket

Trilogy of course a song at a pause, a tinkle in the sky due

Arrange all that arrangements within the arrearage that Providence was supplemented

A chicken in my pocket, a trinket in my socket, a heart in my song, along along

Spider and besides her hair, a beak of the finest pear, my gods it is a simple wrote

Why the goat?

Why the goat?

Tore at the towers gate, a distance from the salty lake that sits upon the midnight haste’s a moon above and beyond its gate

Dark castle waits with a vampires touch, a sociologist at heart he wants to study, the way in which the bite does flurry, flurry in the hearts of men

A dock full of rockets, a paladin and a robber, sit uneasy in truce to catch the brute, whom wilt above the town

And all the while the fool does sing, songs of pockets, chicken and men, a happily known life of Blissfull ignorance of the terror that awaits them…

Seven Moons Oracle: 6. The Heart

Seven Moons Oracle: 6. The Heart

Seven Moons Oracle Card Number 6. The Heart

Usually “the lovers” the heart speaks to us in three fundamental ways. They are represented here in three different sorts of heart. The heart of a human, is the organ for many that signifies love, lovers, and a irreversible choice in the actions of you as a person. When choosing to love, you are opening yourself, making a commitment, and seeking to be loved yourself. One cannot expect love if you are not willing to do all three at once. The second is the spiritual symbol for the heart (on the moons of Aloom of course). Be it something you believe in or not, love is a spiritual connection to another person. It is something fundamental to you, and will bind you spiritually to another person. This may not be a love that is, in the end, one that included lovers intimacy. It may be the love of your sons, fathers, mothers, partners, daughters, yourself even. The last is the heartwood of the tree of life, the table that is made of it is under this heart and under the spiritual symbol for the heart. Heartwood is about the fundamental, irrevocable, unchangeable nature of a decision to allow yourself to love. This does not make it a bad thing, but it does tell you that once you love a person, love them completely, you will never be able to really forget their impact on you for good or ill. If your relationship does not work, the heartwood will be scared and worn by this, and it will keep this mark forevermore.

The Heart Reversed

When drawn reversed, the heart points to a failure. Be it failure of love or not, it is likely a failure that will effect you down to your soul. Things being contrary to your love and belief and sadness is likely in your current, if not your future. This is a warning, take it to head. Make sure you are making the right decisions, be extra careful in your dealings, seek extra help, talk to those you trust. This decision, whatever it is, is more important than most and it needs to be taken with plenty of support, as it is likely, if things don’t go well, they may well be disastrous to you and your loved ones.

From the time of my birth, anew

For if a phoenix shall soar beyond its capacity
Churchills bark, full of audacity
I am game to feel an empty loss
A place of silence, the resonance of dross

Words remixed in a deluge of hails
Fires relit, rebels with no nails
March upon our banner fully
As smoke fills lungs, tounges do bogies

Potato jackets full of ocean salt
punters blasted with summers dead colt
we seek our mountains gains
rocks fall, gain to pain

Lake girl hit, the hospital is split
towers above the clouds
terror drives them, into the ground
wars begin again, barking hellish den

Dash tells of no future for children
Inspiration fell short of desires
Coral forests white like policy
Rudd speaks empty apology.

Around again this trickle-down lie
A plebiscite to run marks on tyres
Rainbows immersion, postal dispersion
We ask what a gurt ocean is

Fires and fires, a yet ignore
what is more important than
our counties wounds
will attention be given soon

Seven Moons Oracle: 5. Shaman

Seven Moons Oracle: 5. Shaman

Often the seen as a counterpart to the “Priestesses” the shaman represents the passing on of spiritual and magical / occult tradition and knowledge. They are the representation of the journey of initiation into the magical arts, be a tradition or solitary practice. The daulity’s of the shaman represents both male and female, life and death, good and evil, solid and liquid, above and below, knowledge and the unknown and so much more. Generally getting this card drawn upright points to trying to focus on tradition, conformity, adherence to the rules as something that might be needed right now. Drawing this card reversed points to the opposite, freedom, personal belief and challenging the status quo. However, in reality a true Shaman will know that duality is a part and parcel of all magical practice as is all aspects of the trinity that The Priestesses point towards.

Vous Cap Gump

Getting all the dreams

Corona and work by Microsoft Teams

I can’t get my coffee and cream

Washing my hands, and singing my prayers

Watching the screen, getting glare to spare

I’m watching a live stream of O’hare

Oh I’m lonely

distance socially

Coronavirus blues

Missing all the social cues

Nightmare fueled by the midnight news

Shutting the stores down, chewing on noodle cores

I’m just trying to do what I can and not be sore
