New Moon Pull for Feb

I’m trying to do this more often.

This being “actually do something to float your mind on each new and full moon.”

This month’s new moon pull was interesting:

Three Tarot cards, one circular and two rectangular, sit on a brownish-gray background. The top one is the Twilight Canticle card "19. Tower". It is a fine-lined drawing of a lighthouse in a storm, done in a style that is reminiscent of Edward Gorey while still being naturalistic. The card is marked with the 6 of spades. Below that cards are two rectangular cards. The one on the left is "The Unseen," number 21, with orange and green flower-like and plant-like objects on a black background. The right one is "The Star," number 17, with a ponytailed person lifting their hand, palm up, towards the sky while stepping into a body of water that reflects the many stars and meteors above. The image is done in shades of blue.
New Moon pull – three Tarot cards for this moon. The Twilight Canticle “Tower” card above and the Gentle Tarot “The Unseen” and “The Star” card below.

The top one is the Twilight Canticle card “19. Tower”. Normally, “tower” iconography in Tarot cards is about things falling down, falling apart. What I love about this card is that it’s a sturdy brick lighthouse in a storm, which is very much a “you’re going to make it through” kind of message. (Of course, I also love its fine-lined style, reminiscent of Edward Gorey and Odilon Redon while still being naturalistic.)

The bottom cards are from the Gentle Tarot, which has more simplistic art. The one on the left is “The Unseen,” which is this deck’s interpretation of “The World”. I have no idea what its orange and green flower-like and plant-like objects are supposed to indicate, but I like being reminded that the world is also comprised of things I’ll never see. The right one is “The Star,” with a pony-tailed person lifting their hand, palm up, towards the sky while stepping into a body of water that reflects the many stars and meteors above. I like that this card has the person looking up rather than the usual “looking down to gather water” art that is common elsewhere.

Time to set these free in my subconscious and see what comes up!
