A year is a unit of time defined by the duration it takes for the Earth to complete one orbit around the Sun. In scientific terms, the tropical year is approximately 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 45 seconds long, while the sidereal year is about 20 minutes longer.

Currently, you can purchase a copy of the Rider-Waite deck from one of the popular reseller websites, such as Amazon, for about $20. However, you can get it from various Chinese shopping sites for less than $8. As long as someone designs their own back panel, publishing the Rider-Waite deck is perfectly legal, since Pamela Colman Smith’s original drawings are in the public domain.
Over the past 50 years, mainly thanks to Stuart R. Kaplan, founder of U.S. Games Systems, Inc., Tarot has become commonplace. Anyone can get a deck of cards, and anyone can become a Tarot reader overnight without study and preparation.
I have repeatedly expressed my opinion that the Rider-Waite deck was Read more The Unified Esoteric Tarot and the daily three-card readings

I read multiple books simultaneously. I usually have a pile of 10 to 12 books that I read from randomly. In the current pile, one book is René Guénon’s The Crisis of the Modern World (La crise du monde moderne), originally published in 1927.

I’m aware of my knowledge and limitations. For instance, I’m sceptical about an almighty G_d, just as I reject the dualistic model. Likewise, reincarnation is a possibility, but not a probability. I am more inclined to believe that the body is decomposing, while the spirit may transcend. How and in what form, I don’t know, and I cannot imagine.
Yet, quite oddly, I may say, I always felt deeply connected with the infamous Aleister Crowley. Not physically, but spiritually.

Back in April 2025, I wrote at length about the Saturn and Neptune Conjunction. You can read the full article here.
For those who still do not have access to my paid members-only posts, here is a small excerpt.
The previous Conjunction occurred at 11°55’ Capricorn and the Second House on March 3, 1989.

1989 was a turning point Read more The Saturn and Neptune Conjunction in February 2026
A follow-up to the morning three-card reading. A small excerpt from my upcoming book, “Waiting on the Bench.” Enjoy!
“The dream, albeit more of a nightmare, had come to a natural end. With its gentle touch, the sun brightened the colours, making the cemetery, though not the most cheerful place, appear in a more friendly light. Once again, the little things and the small details made the unbearable endurable. At the moment, the name of the devil hidden in the details was hope. And if the Devil’s greatest trick was making people believe he didn’t exist, then there was no hope either. Yet, I had met the Devil in flesh and blood, so I thought hope could be real as well.”
