That phrase ‘what goes around comes around’ is very relevant to this card. The Lord of Gain is a card that indicates that we have set in motion some plan or project, and we are now reaching a point of completion with it. So on the day ruled by the 9 of Disks, we need to be open to opportunities which allow us to conclude work that has been outstanding; remain alert to new chances opening up before us; and ready to seize the moment when it appears. This card accords with the ancient wisdom that we give what we get in life – so this is also a day to look for opportunities to offer our help and resources with no immediate expectation of return.

Take up chances to serve – whether in a mundane fashion, or to a higher source, in the sure knowledge that the things you give with love are the ones which build a bright new world. It is the help we give to others with a happy heart, the sympathy we offer without judgement, the gentleness with which we treat ourselves and others that will change things. When we do this, we set in motion a stream of positive, caring energy, which will travel around the world and return to us – vastly changed, and yet almost the same. What we gave to somebody else with no thought of reward or gain, is what we truly gain when it comes our way again. On one hand, the Nine of Disks represents all that is most gracious, high-minded and civilized. Art, music and other forms of beauty are very much part of our physical world. The business of life is important, but we don’t have to focus on practical matters all the time. We can also enjoy the finer things of life. In readings, the Nine of Disks can imply an interest in these areas. It is also a sign that you may need to reject the coarse or offensive and seek the highest.

Elements of the Psychic World
Book Details
Elements of the Psychic World: In another of his celebrated investigations, Fodor was called to Baltimore, Maryland, to investigate a well-publicized case involving the Jones family (the Baltimore poltergeist). For several weeks the family had endured a number of terrifying incidents, including furniture purportedly moving of its own accord and curious knocking sounds within the wall. In his study of the case, Fodor concluded that the activity centred around 17-year-old Ted Pauls. He attributed the activity to recurrent spontaneous psychokinesis, random outbursts of psychokinetic energy from the subject’s unconscious mind. Fodor’s use of the term and his conclusion that this was causing the poltergeist outbreaks opened new ground in the field of parapsychology, and many of the terms and definitions coined by Fodor to explain elements of the cases he investigated are still in use today.

Reversed Cards: Sometimes all that glitters is not gold. If we look more closely at the Nine of Pentacles through the lens of the mirror, can you see where the glamour ends and where the real picture begins? There is a part of this card that does make you wonder if it’s all for show. Is this lovely scene of safety and security nothing more than an image for the outside world to see? It is easy to judge a scene like this one and claim that the woman obviously has it all, yet being too quick to judge this snapshot in time may very well be the lesson you need to learn.

Tarot Triumphs: Jo’s reading has gone deep into my memory—so deep that I can’t actually recall what he told me! But it changed my perceptions radically, and from that point on the Tarot was imprinted on my psyche. Jo had a seriousness that was sharpened by the American situation, I believe, and he read the cards not just as a fanciful tryst with esoteric imagery, but as a vital tool for life in uncertain times.

Reversed Cards: The card of legacy and inner dialogue is ruled by the planet Mercury. This makes sense when you think about how the hermit is about guidance, messages, and communication. When we are tapped in, the messages of the Hermit come in loud and clear. When we are disconnected, the messages come in unclear, confused, and oftentimes jumbled. This tends to happen when Mercury is retrograde. So if you have drawn the Hermit in the retrograde aspect, there is a good chance that you are having trouble receiving information. You may actually feel like you have lost your inner guidance, and this might make you feel alone in the dark and without the Hermit’s loving, guiding light. Just like the Magician, Mercury plays havoc with the Hermit three to four times a year, which means you have to be extra careful with how you talk to yourself, others, and your guides while Mercury is retrograding. It is best to slow yourself down when this happens. Which is all perfectly okay with the Hermit. He isn’t really in a hurry: he is willing to hang about as long as it takes for you to level up the karmic scale.
