Today's Tarot for Tom Hanks
| The Cross and Triangle spread is a powerful means of understanding complex situations, developed by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. This spread is rich in occult and mystical symbolism, and one of our favorites here at Facade. The Haindl Tarot weaves a tapestry of haunting beauty from the traditions of Native America, the Holy Grail, the I Ching, Kabbalah and the Norse Runes, and is the deck of choice for mystics and those seeking enlightenment. If you would like your own copy of the Haindl Tarot, you can buy it now! |
 | The first card, the significator, is placed in the center of the cross. This card represents the prime energy manifest in your life. Father of Cups (Odin): A powerful, domineering person. Intelligence. Creativity. Generous and loving. |
 | The second card, placed above the significator, represents Air. It describes your spirit, process of thought, and the influence of reason. Nine of Swords (Cruelty), when reversed: Relief from cruel conditions. Confusion. Manipulation. |
 | The third card, placed to the right of the significator, represents Fire. It describes your motivations, creative energies, and the influence of passion. Daughter of Stones (White Buffalo Woman), when reversed: Difficulty getting across ideas or emotions. Feeling out of place. |
 | The fourth card, placed below the significator, represents Water. It describes your emotions, meditations, and the influence of love. Aeon: Renewal. Optimism in spite of a painful period of change. Change. Spontaneity. All things are possible. Old world seen through new eyes. |
 | The fifth card, placed to the left of the significator represents Earth. It describes your physical presence, position in life, and the influence of the material world. The Sun, when reversed: Sun is clouded over. Day-to-day problems, though happiness remains. Loss of confidence. Frustration. |
 | At this point the cross is complete and the triangle is formed. The sixth card, placed on the bottom left of the triangle represents one of two opposing forces. Son of Wands (Krishna), when reversed: Difficulty. Conflict. Problems may bring out depths in a person. |
 | The seventh card, placed on the bottom right of the triangle represents the force that opposes the bottom left card. These forces may be external, but they are frequently one's own inner archetypes in conflict. Strength: Inner strength. Love and gentleness. Confidence. Ability to give love. |
 | The eighth card, the reconciler, is placed below the cross in the third vertex of the triangle. This is the force that will resolve the conflict between the bottom left and bottom right cards. By meditating on this force and bringing more of it into your life, you can bring the matter at hand to a swifter conclusion than would naturally occur. Ten of Stones (Richness): Good life. Health. A sense of solid reality. |
 | The ninth and final card, placed in the center bottom of the triangle, represents the final outcome unless you change course. Three of Cups (Overflowing): Great feeling. Extreme joy that can turn to tears. |
