#ADifferentKindofDecanWalk Second Decan of Gemini

Welcome to the second decan of Gemini that will go through June 1 - 10. There are timestamps below to help you find sections again or move on to a new section. Please note, we are not using the Golden Dawn’s system. We are using a different Tree of Life (perhaps an older one) and a different set of esoteric association (most probably an older set). We are also using a different set of decanic associations. Still, if you are interested, we are doing a decan walk. That means we are going to slowly study how to apply astrology to tarot in a practical way for one year. Each minor arcana card is associated with a 10° section of the year. The dates for each card are in the table above. The planet and zodiacal sign associations are in the wheel above. Each 10 (+/-) days there will be three cards to focus on. The minor arcana card for the decan, the major arcana card associated with the zodiacal sign, and the major arcana card associated to the planet. Connecting all three cards helps us understand how these cards can interact with our lives. Adding astrology to readings gives another layer of meaning that can sometimes be good information. At the beginning of each decan, I will upload a YouTube link to my presentation of the cards for that decan, and I will also read a spread to help us unpack the cards a little better. If you would like to join us on this journey, I heartily welcome you. You can join at any time. The second decan is the Eight of Swords with the Chariot (for Gemini) and the Star (for Venus). 0:00:00 Introduction 0:06:20 First Decan of Gemini Recap 0:12:21 Second Decan of Gemini (with the Egyptian Decan Remen Khery Sah) 0:26:00 Eight of Swords for the Second Decan of Gemini 0:26:00 Major Arcana Influences on the Eight of Swords 0:52:43 Three Card Spread Two books that I'm using for reference are: Decanates by Bernice Prill Grebner.
