Tarot
of the
Pomegranate uses the media of
oil painting - at once both traditional and demanding - to illustrate
the archetypal tarot forms with vivid and somber colors, surreal
landscapes, emotive portraits, and symbols both classic and modern. A
deck of deep passions and whispered secrets, a deck for dreamers,
visionaries and magicians, it occupies a world both fantastic and
approachable. The cohesion of the images belies the many years spent
on their creation. These are not only beautiful works of art, they are
practical cards that give profound readings. A rare deck that is both
collectible and useful, it rewards repeated study.

The
Tarot card for the month of May 2012;
"The
Moon"
"Temperance" from
Tarot of the Pomegranate 5.2 ft.
x 3 ft., oil on canvas An-Magrith Erlandsen
The "Super Moon" of the first weekend in May
calls for a deep look at the meaning of The Moon in the
Tarot. A card of mystery and the unknown it positions
itself as a wild card in a tarot spread. Questions will
not be answered for the answer is "unknown at this
time". A hint of the dark side, spiritual misgivings and
the hidden world come to mind. The Moonalso reflects
the deep subconscious, and things which were once hidden
are bubbeling to the surface. Depression,
schizophrenia and disorientation may be the result if not
acknowledged and dealt with correctly. The results of
a succesful journey through the dark side of the moon is
enlightenment, fulfillment and renewed strength of
charachter. Rest assured The Sun follows the moon.
There will be light at the end of the tunnel. On another
level The Moon is a mystical card. A time when the
veilsbetween this world and the other are thin, and
psychic revelation is clear and concise. Your
intuitive faculties are highly in tune.It is a fruitful
time of inner reflection and accomplishing goals in your
"Art"; painting, music, writing etc., and also a timeto
discover your art and your soul's purpose outside of the
normal everyday. It is a time to just trust the process
and dive into the waters of your soul and discover who you
really are.
