I’ve moved most of my posts to the mysticalcenter.com. I’m really not sure yet what I’m going to do with my sites.
The Four Suits
Wands – Fire Element
When you think of Wands, thing of ideas, because Wands are the conception or seeds through which the tree springs forth. They are the original thought, intention or primary element of growth.
Their key words are: ideas, growth, energy, enterprise, ambition and expansion. When there are many Wands in a reading it indicates that conditions are primarily in the realm of thought, or at the very first stages of development.

Tarot and Astrology
There are 16 cards that represent the Court Arcana in the Rider Waite Tarot Deck. They are the Page, Knight, Queen, and King of each suit. The four Knights are instigators of change. They mark the beginning or end of a sequence of events for the querent. Since we only need 12 cards to make this correlation we will disregard the Knights for this discussion. I believe the remaining 12 Court Arcana have a direct correlation with the signs of the Zodiac.
In ancient times it was thought that the world was made up of just four elements. Fire, Water, Air and Earth. Each of these elements represent three astrological signs and correlates with one of the suits of the Court Arcana. Continue reading

The Darkest Night
Years ago I took a shot at writing a poem. It was my first stab at poetry since high school English class which was was way off in my distant past. I don’t want to come right out and say I’m old. However, I think it’s only fair to warn you I do remember when the Dead Sea was just coming down with a cold.
What I’m really trying to say here is that my structure, style, grammar etc. may be off a bit. It’s the best I could do from my limited understand of such things.
The Darkest Night
‘Tis a dark night.
Sun has fallen, moon not risen.
Not a star shines
in the depth of this night.
Save for one, off in the distance -
it emits its light.
Like a beacon to the traveler,
its warmth does comfort;
Like the love from your heart,
it fires my soul.
You are this light, its strength,
its might:
You are the love
from within this light.
But the sun shall rise
to extinguish this night,
Leaving but a memory
of this love and this light.
I stand at a loss,
for I know ’tis an end.
And yet,
tomorrow -
the darkest night all over again.
by,
Darrell
Needless to say, I haven’t felt like writing another poem since.
