Silvia Pancaro's interpretation and suggestion for the day:
Today... we can connect with our Inner Devil, that part of our consciousness that keeps up imprisoned in beliefs that no longer serve us. However, keep in mind that the Devil is the ultimate Trickster!! Ask yourself today, who is really in charge here? Have you allowed yourself to become a victim of your own laughable seriousness? Are you truly 'shackled' or are you able to free yourself from the control of your perceived nemesis?

This particular version: Conditioning, shows a mighty lion, tied and bound by a flock of sheep. So what kind of 'herd mentality' have you bought in to? Notice that you are both the jailed AND the jailer. You have the know-how & the power to free yourself! It's the greatest Cosmic Joke ever! Today, I believe is an excellent day to question your projections! But also, consider what ENSLAVES you - is it dependence on other people's opinions? Is it dependence on money? Have you bought into the collective belief about having to fight an external enemy? Are you adding to the problem, instead of helping to resolve it, such as with a dependency on oil? Or perhaps buying products that are coming from government enslaved people? Do you promote beliefs that undermine Individuality and Authentic Self-Expression, like plastic surgery or cosmetics? As a whole, we are urged today to question what we have chosen to become 'slaves' to.

Today the Moon is transiting through the Freedom loving Zodiacal sign of Aquarius, The Cup-Bearer. The Lunar Phase is Waxing Gibbous. This informs us that we need to actively work towards creating our grander visions, and to take action that is in alignment with the higher frequencies of Aquarius: What will you do to bring about positive results within the Global Family, based on Collective Ideals of Freedom of Expression?  We are invited to look into political and social ideals that no longer serve the greater good, and to really taking action towards understanding the 'link' between every Life form on Earth, including Gaia herself! There is an interesting message from the Aquarian Archetype: Freedom of Expression and the loving of One's own unique Individuality, within the midst of groups and collective ideologies. How can you maintain your unique individuality within the collective?

Putting together today's card, Conditioning (Devil), with today's Lunar transit in Aquarius, we might consider how we might be holding others as prisoners of our own expectations? What can you do to help free your fellow men, women and children of the illusion of separation? Is there any old beliefs in your consciousness that have been keeping you imprisoned within judgments of self or others? What external and internal authority figures have you been giving your Freedom up to? Ultimately, today's Moon combined with today's card, informs us of the need to stop judging others 'out there' as the Nemesis - there are no external 'devils' but projections of our own inner programming. We have simply agreed to collectively 'buy in to' a joint venture - whether as small communities, families or even as Nations - we need to stop the negative projections, and come into Communion with our Core Vibrational Essence, as a Unified Field of Consciousness. LOVE YOUR (Supposed) ENEMY!

Divinatory Meaning from The Osho Zen Tarot book:
"This card recalls an old Zen story, about a lion who was brought up by sheep and who thought he was a sheep until an old lion captured him and took him to a pond, where he showed him his own reflection. Many of us are like this lion - the image we have of ourselves comes not from our own direct experience but from the opinions of others. A 'personality' imposed from the outside replaces the individuality that could have grown from within. We become just another sheep in the herd, unable to move freely, and unconscious of our own true identity. It's time to take a look at your own reflection in the pond, and make a move to break out of whatever you have been conditioned by others to believe about yourself. Dance, run, jog, do gibberish - whatever is needed to wake up the sleeping lion within.

Unless you drop your personality you will not be able to find your individuality. Individuality is given by existence; personality is imposed by the society. Personality is social convenience. Society cannot tolerate individuality, because individuality will not follow like a sheep. Individuality has the quality of a lion; the lion moves alone. The sheep are always in the crowd, hoping that being in the crowd will feel cozy. Being in the crow one feels more protected, secure. If somebody attacks there is every possibility in a crowd to save yourself. But alone? only the lions move alone. And every one of you is born a lion, but the society goes on conditioning you, programming your mind as a sheep. It gives you a personality, a cozy personality, nice, very convenient, very obedient. Society wants slaves, not people who are absolutely dedicated to freedom. Society wants slave because all the vested interests wants obedience."
