Today’s tarot card brings up one of the more interesting things about the Thoth tarot. Whereas most tarot decks follow the Page, Knight, Queen, King ordering of the court cards, the Thoth changes the names to Princess, Prince, Queen, and Knight. Even though it appears the Knight has moved up in the world, in reality the Knight and Prince are equivalent, as are the King and Knight. So, my Prince of Disks for today is really the Knight of Pentacles in most decks.
Morning Musings
This Knight is the most grounded of all the knights, tempered by earthy energy. He is loyal, a bit stubborn, and methodical, working towards his goals with tenacity. In the Thoth, he sits in a large chariot, which is led by a large Taurean bull. He may be going slow, but he is determined to get there, never losing sight of what matters most to him.
On today’s agenda is more writing (as usual!) and getting some house cleaning done. The steady, plodding energy of the Prince of Disks should help carry me through all of my to do list. Well, I’d better get started!
Evening Review
Well, today didn’t go as planned on the cleaning front. The girls actually picked up their room – woohoo! But I didn’t get to vacuuming or dishes because my upper back was throbbing. I will have to keep track of this, to see if our Prince of Disks is the indicator of back problems.
Now, I did get a lot of writing done. I journalled about my Peace and Worry reading, which I also posted here. For me, I like to write out my interpretations of the tarot cards, whether it be longhand or on the computer. Since I am a writer, it comes naturally to me to share my thoughts on paper, rather than speaking. Of course, I will be making some audio or video recordings of readings in the future, so get ready! But I find that writing brings out things I didn’t even realize I was thinking about the cards!
Speaking of journalling, I received my copy of Corrine Kenner’s Tarot Journaling today. I only skimmed it so far, but I’m liking what I see! I’m considering doing a review of the book, so let me know if that’s something you’d like to see here.
Overall, today has been a quiet one, with me taking things easy and working towards my goals. Now, I didn’t make a lot of strides, but the ones I did were measured and well thought out. Sounds like a true Prince of Disks day to me.
