Tarot Time: Cycles in the Cards
Embedded in the Tarot are symbols and seasons of time. This is especially evident in the Major Arcana cards, which call forth the archetypal nature of forces present at the time of the reading. Over the many years of working with clients, I have witnessed Card 20, Judgment, to signal a phase of endings and renewals, often the conclusion of a 20-year cycle. Following Judgment is the World, the final card of the Majors, also echoing the themes of completion. Judgement is frequently equated with Pluto; the World with Saturn. At the dawn of the new Saturn-Pluto cycle it feels timely to consider both these cards in the light of cycles and passages.
