Be quiet, stranger. I do not wish to harm you… but if you value your life – make no sudden moves. You will not speak before I speak.
When you come to me, you must remember that with light comes shadows. Darkness follows light, and light follows darkness. Here, you will find both.
My name is Deandra, The Duchess of Dunsinane, and I will help guide you through both the light and the dark of your mind.
Please, for your own sake – maintain complete silence until I give you a sign.
The Duchess of Dunsinane will delve into the very depths of your soul to bring forth your deepest desires.
Come, sit down. Let’s reveal your destiny.




TEMPERANCE INTERPRETATION
Additional omen for love: Isn’t that what true romance is supposed to be about? Finding the person who’s your soul mate?
Original description of the card by the author – Arthur Edward Waite: A winged angel, with the sign of the sun upon his forehead and on his breast the square and triangle of the septenary. I speak of him in the masculine sense, but the figure is neither male nor female. It is held to be pouring the essences of life from chalice to chalice. It has one foot upon the earth and one upon waters, thus illustrating the nature of the essences. A direct path goes up to certain heights on the verge of the horizon, and above there is a great light, through which a crown is seen vaguely. Hereof is some part of the Secret of Eternal Life, as it is possible to man in his incarnation. All the conventional emblems are renounced herein.
So also are the conventional meanings, which refer to changes in the seasons, perpetual movement of life, and even the combination of ideas. It is, moreover, untrue to say that the figure symbolizes the genius of the sun, though it is the analogy of solar light, realized in the third part of our human triplicity. It is called Temperance, fantastically, because, when the rule of it obtains in our consciousness, it tempers, combines and harmonizes the psychic and material natures. Under that rule we know in our rational part something of whence we came and whither we are going.


THE HERMIT INTERPRETATION
A special insight for love: I think only when you are truly alone can you see you never were.
Original description of the card by the author – Arthur Edward Waite: The variation from the conventional models in this card is only that the lamp is not enveloped partially in the mantle of its bearer, who blends the idea of the Ancient of Days with the Light of the World. It is a star which shines in the lantern. I have said that this is a card of attainment, and to extend this conception the figure is seen holding up his beacon on an eminence. Therefore the Hermit is not, as Court de Gebelin explained, a wise man in search of truth and justice, nor is he, as a later explanation proposes, an especial example of experience. His beacon intimates that “where I am, you also may be.“
It is further a card which is understood quite incorrectly when it is connected with the idea of occult isolation, as the protection of personal magnetism against admixture. This is one of the frivolous renderings which we owe to Eliphas Lévi. It has been adopted by the French Order of Martinism and some of us have heard a great deal of the Silent and Unknown Philosophy enveloped by his mantle from the knowledge of the profane. In true Martinism, the significance of the term Philosophe inconnu was of another order. It did not refer to the intended concealment of the Instituted Mysteries, much less of their substitutes, but—like the card itself—to the truth that the Divine Mysteries secure their own protection from those who are unprepared.


PAGE OF CUPS INTERPRETATION
A special insight for love: Gay sex, one. Straight sex, zero.
Original description of the card by the author – Arthur Edward Waite: A fair, pleasing, somewhat effeminate page, of studious and intent aspect, contemplates a fish rising from a cup to look at him. It is the pictures of the mind taking form.
The wisdom I impart comes from your sacred energies. Close your eyes, keep silent. Arrive open to the power that is bestowed upon us as we feel the cards for their divine intervention.
I will not give you the answers. I will guide you to your inner power, strengthen your intuition, and help you trust your own wisdom. We work with the power of the moon. The moon’s influence will help you to reflect on your own natural magic.
The phases of the moon will provide you with the healing powers of both darkness and light.
Be prepared as I read with a dark deck. I aim to unlock the deepest layers of your soul. I encourage you to delve deeper than your comfort level to find the depths of your desires. It is not easy to peel your own layers hence my involvement with the help of the dark and wise.
Everyone has a dark side. Embrace it and learn from it. You can’t deny your emotions, but you can learn to harness them and accept that they exist.


About me:
Though I am not a witch, I hold the wisdom of one. I have been appointed custodian of the witches’ oracles and given access to their prophetic insight. I can reveal the mystical realms to you and what is required to bring positive change into your life. The spells and magic that connect you to the elements are in my power to reveal. I draw on the power of the witches, the moon, and the mystical realm to reveal your desires.
My Dome of Discovery is near the village of Collace in Perthshire, Scotland. Dunsinane Hill has been my home all my life. It is my sanctum of solitude where I do my best work.
Duchess Deandra of Dunisnane
