Brief Historical References

• The Egyptians (circa 3000-2000 BCE) divided the night sky into 36 groups of stars called "decans" (from Greek "deka" meaning ten, as each ruled approximately 10 days)
• These decans were primarily used for timekeeping at night
• They were not yet connected to zodiac signs (the 12-sign zodiac came later) or Tarot (which didn't exist)
• When the Babylonian zodiac of 12 signs was adopted in Hellenistic Egypt after 300 BCE, the decans were reorganized to fit within the zodiac framework (3 decans per sign)
• Texts attributed to Hermes Trismegistus incorporated these astrological concepts
• Tarot cards originated in 15th century Italy with no initial astrological associations
• The systematic correspondence between the 36 decans and the 36 numbered Minor Arcana cards (2-10 of each suit) was developed much later
• Aleister Crowley further refined this system for his Thoth Tarot deck designed 1938-1943

The Astrological Framework:

• The zodiac wheel divided into 36 decans (10° segments of each sign)
• Each decan corresponds to a specific Minor Arcana card in the Thoth Tarot
• The Sun's journey through these decans creates a natural sequence
• This ancient system dates back to Egyptian astrology and was refined through Hermetic traditions

SEVEN OF DISKS

Second Decan of Taurus (May 11-May 20, 2025)

The Sun is between 20 degrees and 30 degrees in the sign of Taurus.

• On May 1 the Sun enters the third decan of Taurus, corresponding to the Seven of Disks in the Thoth Tarot deck—the Lord of Failure.
• The Seven of Disks corresponds to Saturn in Taurus, which represents a challenging energy combination. Saturn is associated with discipline, limitation, and life lessons, while Taurus relates to material wealth, possessions, and practical matters
• Circular disks containing what look like warrior/soldier faces (Saturn) and bulls (Taurus)
• The background features a dark design with leaf or feather-like patterns
• This card represents: the testing of patience through disappointment
• Disappointment that comes from attachment to outcomes
• Necessary period of challenge that tests one's perseverance before potential later success
