Dreams for building a better understanding
Dreams, involuntary productions of the psyche, propose a reservoir of images and feelings carrying meanings. Their power of communication has been recognized since the earliest times: the ancients saw it as a source of prophecy, and in Egypt the gods passed to address the pharaoh during his dreams. However, the interpretation of dreams has always come up against their mystery because of their symbols. Some, of course, operate at a non-symbolic level and are to be interpreted literally. But others act more deeply because of their symbols coming from the personal unconscious. By hiding its message in the form of symbols, the dream acts as a "sleeping guardian" as Freud notes. This allows the sleeper to reap the psychological benefits of his night. If we take the habit of noting them when we wake up, we can decipher the riches and warnings of our being on a given aspect of our life. Written by David
The Tower and the Star
These two cards of the Marseille tarot respectively represent change and hope. The Tower, if it suggests chaos, also means that the subject is resolved to fight to prevent the installation of a somewhat difficult situation (if the card is reversed). He will have the opportunity to review and define his values, his lifestyle, his relationships and live in harmony with his true identity. If his beliefs were a little rigid, he could overcome and transmute them to adopt a new attitude. The Star announces luck and faith in a better future. If the subject has experienced difficulties, this card presages that a luminous renewal is about to happen. It symbolizes the fulfillment of wishes and a denouement that will bring a lot of confidence in destiny. The subject will also have to achieve this, to connect with his faith and his true intimacy. Whatever the case may be, the prospect of a new existence is emerging for the better. Written by David
The Sun and the Moon in the tarot of Marseille
If in your tarot draw the card of the Moon appears, it warns you that you will enter a period where you will be more receptive, intuitive, even inspired. It can also mean that you may be plagued by disappointment or delusions. Because appearances can be deceptive; it will be difficult to differentiate between reality and fiction, which could lead you to doubt or confusion. It may be that you have lost the right direction and are looking for your way but it is essential to reconnect with who you really are. If the Sun comes out in your draw you are about to reach a personal goal and then you will enjoy the fruits of your labor. This is one of the best cards in the tarot and this underlines that you have the energy necessary to achieve your goals. You are in a period of great creativity, prosperity and fulfillment in your personal relationships. It can also announce a happy marriage or a satisfaction in love. Written by David
The heart line on your palm
In chiromancy, the heart line is the one that starts under the little finger and runs to the middle or even the index finger. It reflects your emotional life and your feelings. If the line is badly traced or forms small islands like a chain, this is a sign of dissatisfaction and emotional insecurity; if the line is well drawn, the individual will be confident in his own feelings to the point of being able to act even impulsively. A curved line will reveal strong desires and an enterprising side; a straight line denotes a more reasoned and measured person. If your heart line ends at the root of your index, you know what you want and are very demanding of your partner; if it ends between the index and the middle finger, you are affectionate and loving nature with regard to your loves but also your loved ones. A short-hearted line will be a lover of fleeting and irresponsible adventures. Finally, a line of hearts ending in a fork is favorable because it indicates a romantic soul, warm and balanced. So, did you decrypt your heart line? Written by David
The philosopher's stone
Alchemy is often regarded as a pseudo-science whose transmutation of metals is the main object: a curiosity that would only be worthwhile through its contribution to the birth of modern chemistry. This false idea is largely explained by the secret that alchemists have always maintained on their true goal: to achieve enlightenment. In the Middle Ages, the symbolism of alchemical transformation served to conceal what the Church condemned as a heretical practice since it was based on the belief that the individual could find salvation himself without the help of religion. At the supreme esoteric level, the alchemists aimed to transmute the base metal into gold, that is, to transform their ordinary existence into a state of pure spirituality. The philosopher's stone or the elixir of long life are the means sought to achieve this conversion. If the transmutation of base metals into gold proves its power, the elixir was a goal in itself: an essence, and not a mere agent. The journey to enlightenment (the Great Work) thus had a dimension both physical and spiritual. Written by David
The Oracle of Belline
This beautiful card game does not really name the creator. In fact, it was designed by a certain Edmond Billaudot, said the mage Edmond (1829 - 1881) who counted among his clientele great celebrities like Victor Hugo, Napoleon III, Alexandre Dumas to name a few. It was around 1865 that he drew this tarot drawing his inspiration both in the tarot of Marseille, religious representations, chivalrous, Kabbalistic... It is to say if he is rich in symbols. This Oracle could have fallen into oblivion except that a man named Belline, great clairvoyant of the twentieth century who consulted during the years 1950 to 1980, seized it, taking affection for the cards that composed it. He gave him his own name after having seriously studied and perfected in his own way. It includes 53 cards and is based on an astrological structure inspired by the "septenary". Each card represents the symbolism of one of the 7 fundamental planets: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Written by David
The Baghdad Battery: An Unusual Object?
Did you know that the battery dates back to 2500 BC? The Baghdad battery was discovered in 1936 during archaeological excavations and suggests that there are so many mysteries that ancient civilizations conceal and that certain objects of our daily life are not new. The Bagdad battery is a ceramic pot containing a copper tube with an iron rod inside. Researchers have shown that the replicas of this battery really provide electric power when we spread vinegar or fruit juice! Others believe that these batteries were used for therapeutic purposes or acupuncture. Skeptics rather speculate that these objects would only have been used to store rolls. But the majority agrees that it is indeed an electric battery. Still others think that if the Babylonians could not conceive of an electricity-based system, it would be the aliens... Well, the debate remains open. Written by David
