In order the better to
understand the Tarot, I work out a problem; and
therefore ask “What will be the result of my month’s

2 of Chalices – Lord of
Love
Harmony of masculine and
Feminine united. Harmony, pleasure, mirth.
(Folly, waste, dissipation,
silly actions.) |

(Ill dignified in parentheses. I take
it right side well dignified. Swords inimical to Pentacles,
yet Knight must be more powerful than 6 of Swords? Wands
friendly with Swords and Pentacles. I do not know enough
here. But the left, too, may have a degree of good dignity;
at least, I assume it so. Feb. 21)

Attempt vision. Cannot. Use
“Thou who art I” and let self go, any place. Travel
some distance, see golden yellow—wheat straw at
childhood home in Pennsylvania. Go through barn,
visit mulberry tree, etc., wondering why I was
there. Then get the “likeness” in Lea [Leah Hirsig]
which has cropped up time and again—Laura B. living
Silly ass! |
