Column: The World Tree, Heimdall, and All of Us

By Karl E. H. Seigfried | January 29, 2022

“The earth rotates around an axis drawn from the south pole, through the planet, out the north pole, and up to the pole star. With a bit of imagination, diagrams of this world axis show a trunk with roots in the earth and the pole star at the top of the leader. Old Icelandic poetry tells us of the mighty measuring tree. The growth and life of this tree parallel the growth and life of this world, and none know where to find the beginning point of its roots.”

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: The Transparent Tarot by Emily Carding, published by Red Feather Mind, Body, Spirit.

Card: Queen of Swords

The week ahead offers the potential for rational thinking, “high principles, and strong ideals” to drive the narrative. Be mindful to not allow logic to dominate to the point that it obscures sensitivities and compassion–balance is essential for progress.

Conversely, fabrications and even outright lies are likely to be deployed to manipulate for personal gain, to avoid accountability, or to attempt to bring down an opponent.
