secrecy mystifies and obscures things. Broken confidences isolate you.

      ♦ AVIATRIX’S REVELATION SPREAD ♦

Image

      1. What is my intention?

      2. What are its portents?

      3. What do I learn?

      4. How will it change things?

      Gear-change: ▲ Your mood is more introspective, in preparation for a transition. After a time of expansion, you enter a period of restraint, quietness, or consideration. Slow down to honor what emerges. Looking at your dreams for meaning will show the way forward. You are led more by your inspiration or intuition than by reason. ▼ Escaping into psychism, guesswork, or ungrounded divination, you can lose touch with your common sense. A time of licence after restraint or austerity beckons. Working from shallow or superficial knowledge leaves you open.

      Blockages to clear: ▲ You stand in need of soul-guidance; find a wise friend or expert to help you. You’ve been noticing omens and portents along your way, and now the writing is on the wall. Feeling suddenly vast with vision or potential, you can clearly see what no longer serves you. ▼ Secrets are revealed in an untimely or embarrassing fashion. Compromised values hem you in: time to return to what you believe. You are easily captivated by signs and symbols, rather than steering by the real meaning of your life.

      Behind the veil of consciousness lies a deeper knowing.

      What do your dreams, intuition, and innate intelligence show you?

      · III EMPRESS ·

Image

      The Empress cherishes the life and well-being of the Imperium with mutual respect and pleasure. There is a relaxed ease and grace about everything she does. Her cornucopia of goodness nourishes all, bestowing a sense of prosperity and abundance. As one of the Gods of the Machine, she brings elegance, beauty, and fruitfulness to everything that is made; the potential of creation is central to her. She encourages you to share your gifts, so that you enrich the world about you, and to be receptive to the information that you receive through your senses—the medium by which you enjoy pleasures. When you engage with life at the deepest level, everything you touch can be made beautiful.

      Gate of opportunity: ▲ Creativity is a pleasure, allowing you to concentrate on the growth or fulfilment of things dear to your heart. You are in the process of nurturing or giving birth to something. Abundance and fertility are lined up to support your plans. Giving and receiving tenderness or compassion. Material and spiritual wealth help you feel prosperous. You have the chance to bring harmony. ▼ Wild growth, extravagance, or too much of a good thing waste the creative power. Thwarted passion or abuse of the feminine diminishes your self-image. Frustrated creativity turns you inwards.

      ♦ EMPRESS’ CORNUCOPIA SPREAD ♦

Image

      1. What is coming into being?

      2. How do I cherish it?

      3. What helps it grow?

      4. What will I share?

      Gear-change: ▲ You appreciate beauty after a phase of being surrounded by the mundane, the plain, or the unadorned. Physical well-being comes online for you. Social events and gatherings help you affirm life’s pleasures. A feeling of richness and pleasure helps you feel expansive. Passion is in the air, so prepare to attract and be attractive. Sharing your resources generously. Doing things in a feminine way. ▼ Expedient measures circumscribe your resources. A period of dearth after plenty. Inability to share. Failure to respond reciprocally. Superficial attractions lure you in.

      Blockages to clear: ▲ Spending your resources on creating a good impression is time-consuming. Luxury and opulence for their own sake. You are out of phase with nature and natural rhythms. Be careful that you are not too demanding. Is your self-image becoming overly conventional? Maternal love becomes smothering. How can you foster your own and others’ creativity? ▼ Over-indulgence or letting yourself go. Having to cut back on pleasures or extravagances. Feeling left out of the circle. Not taking care of yourself.

      Steampunk Wisdom

      Everything you ever needed is at your command.

      How can your potential best be expressed or fostered?

      · IV EMPEROR ·

Image

      The Emperor oversees the Imperium with courage and vision, stability and commitment. He defines and defends his realm humanely, wielding authority with responsibility. His stabilizing strength becomes a protection to others because he establishes clear structures and helpful boundaries. As one of the Gods of the Machine, he is the virility and verve that powers the engine, guiding and regulating its workings with order. The Emperor enables you to take the lead and get organized, helping you to follow a regime, hit a schedule responsibly, and maintain standards. When you take up your space in life with courage, you can have natural authority and hold the boundaries without wavering.

      Gate of opportunity: ▲ Your leadership qualities enable you to turn ideas into reality, lead the field, or bring a plan through to its goal. Making a secure environment gives protection to others. Responsible love or fatherhood heads up the workplace, family, or environment. Authoritative energy brings organization. Authenticity results from you taking up the challenge. Time to employ systematic structures. ▼ Arrogance or perfectionism mars the enterprise. Immaturity, weakness, or lack of authority leaves things in a disorganized mess. Inability to get organized merely puts off the challenge for another day. Megalomania or delusions of grandeur begin to crowd out common sense.
