Introduction

I started this blog to keep track of the Tarot reading that I do every month on or around the New Moon. I use the Osho Zen Tarot. I use a spread that shows the happening throughout the month. The spread uses nine cards:

1. The Seed - what seed begins to grow this moon?


2. The Querent - how do you behave and respond during this lunation to the issues the Moon illuminates for you?


3. Challenge - what is the central challenge of this lunation?


4. Last Lunation - what is now passing away from the last lunation?


5. Waxing Moon - what grows as the Moon waxes?


6. Full Moon - what peaks as the Moon becomes full?


7. Waning Moon - what do you let go of or surrender as the Moon wanes?


8. Lessons - what are the key lessons of this lunation?


9. Seed of Next New Moon - what seed will begin to grow during the next lunation? (Card 9 will become card #1 of the next month's reading)

I have also added three additional cards:

* 1 more - the card underneath the nineth card
* Undercurrent - the last card; the card on the bottom of the deck - the underlying theme or motive
* 1 more(book) - open the deck to a random card
