Hi! Everyone! I'm Back Again! LOL!
Hi! Everyone I'm Back Again! LOL! In a word my computer is fucked. I'm sorry it has been so long since the last blog entry. I have been having major computer problems and I have been majorly ill with 3 viruses. I'm still sick but well enough to write again. I got so far behind in my professional and personal writing. Now I am slowly catching up as I listen to my personal Abbottsinn International School of Magick heavy metal channel on U tube. The music cuts in and out because of this POS You know what POS means. LOL!) computer. Whatever you do don't get a Dell computer to save your life. As the saying goes "You know it is a Dell Because It Smells." So these are the reasons that you have not seen a new blog update till now. Yesterday on Thursday April 12th marked my 12th year with keen. My clients have mysteriously increased for some strange reason which I can't fathom. Funny I don't feel any different after 12 years of being here. Maybe it will hit me later when I least expect it. Today is also a very special day. Today is especially special day for all you Pagans out there a sacred day to us Pagans I might add. It is Fritag the 13th. Bad for Christians Good for Pagans. Go figure. I'm so happy to see so many Pagans on keen now. I'm very impressed by that. Now back to Fritag. I had to respond to what Raven willowmagic wrote in her message to me in my inbox which was sent all over keen I suspect. I get very few messages just directed to myself. With a name like Raven willomagic aren't you a Pagan to? I asked her. As a Pagan you should know many positive aspects of the number 13. The first is that in Numerology the number 13 is a higher octave of the number 3 which is my favorite number and represents the Triple Goddesses Will in Three Aspects: The Mother , the Daughter and the Crone, and To Know, To Will and to Keep Silent. Not mention The High self, The Low Self and Middle Self. The 3 Phases of the Moon's Power: New, Full and Quarter. In Wiccan tradition the number 13 is the number of people in a traditional coven 12 for the coven members and the 13th for the priestess of the coven who is the physical representative of the Goddesses's Power in the coven. There are 13 months in the Celtic Year. The Death card is numbered 13 which represents Transformation, Regeneration and Change and the sign Scorpio. it is call Key 13. The Hebrew of the Death Trump is NUN which means: "Noon" Like High Noon. So lets not forget these positive attributes to the number 13. Just about every Pagan I know considers 13 and Friday the 13th the most auspicious day to Pagans. Friday is Ferija's Day or Dag, Dag being the Day Rune in the Runic System. It is called this by many Pagans  including me Fritag. Sacred to the Goddess Ferja and her worship. Friday like the number 7 is sacred to Venus-Aphrodite who lost her niety and to the Planet Venus. So here are positive examples of the number 13 and Friday. You should also be aware that there are a lot of Pagans here on keen now and they probably like to see our sacred numbers and days given positive veneration instead of always talking about the not so positive aspects. As a AD(arch-druid) I couldn't let this slide. I would also like to mention that yesterday on Thorsday or Thorstag marked my 12th year with keen. In 12 years I have seen this place change dramatically. Now there are a ton of Pagans here when I only thought I was the only one or at the very least one of very few. I will be talking about this subject today when I update my blog here on keen. I will also continue my Tarot series on the Major Trumps and today will be The Chariot Key 7 the sign Cancer my sign as a matter of fact. Well Raven have a happy Blessed Freya's Tag the 13th. I said to her and Take Care and Blessed Be. AD(arch-druid) Stephen W. Abbott here known as Stephen6580 Peace! Peace! Peace! I left her 3 free mins. so we can talk about the sacred Fritag the 13th. Come check out my blog later I said to her. This day is even more important to me. Today marks 9 years that Abbott's Inn International School of Magick has been on the Internet. We are now on 13 networks including this one. Me and Tegwedd ShadowDancer who used to be here on keen during what we call The Boring Times are retooling The Abbott's Inn International School of Magick and rededicating it to the memory of our dearly departed Pagan-Druid-Bud Isaac Bonewits. A fitting tribute to a great, funny and very wise man. His death is felt through the entire Pagan-Magickal community. I knew Isaac for over 40 years. I miss him terribly. I think he would like us dedicating the Magick School to him. It was Isaac who talked me into creating the Magick School in the first place. It was Isaac who talked Tegwedd and I to write our book on the Tarot entitled: The Ultimate Guide to the Tarot. We are still looking for a publisher. If we can't find a publisher then we will publish it here on the internet as a e-book. I would like to turn you onto a really cool network which is called Temple Illuminatus.com check it out and leave me a message in my inbox telling me what you think. Tegwedd and I think it is a really cool site. When you get a chance get a chat reading from me here on keen. Chat readings are still in BETA here on keen. There are bugs in the system but they can be fixed. Chat readings are the future. Keen needs to upgrade its image and do more advertising to keep them relevant to the times we live in. I'm optimistic that they can rise up through mediocrity and assume a evolved state of prominence in this field. I still do e-mail readings here on keen. These readings can be up to 9,000 characters in length and can be on just about any topic say love and romance and fiances and career. If you want such a reading from me leave me a message in my inbox here and I will get back to you right away. I'm still teaching classes in Pagan-Magickal subjects and using the same system I use for the e-mail readings I offer here on keen. If you are interested in these classes please drop me a line in my inbox here on keen. I am retooling all of my 5 homepages of my 5 listings here on keen. Later on you can check them out and tell me what you think of the changes.For all of you 1,000 plus clients of mine I have a special offer for you today. In honor of this being Fritag the 13th and the 9th year of Abbottsinn International School of Magick on the internet I am sending out to all these 1,000 plus clients and offer of 5 Free Minutes. To thank you for allowing me to serve you all for the last 12 years here on keen. I hope that many of you will call me after I send them out today. I will be sending them out after I finish this extra-long blog entry. Finally I will end this post by talking about the Chariot Key 7. The sign Cancer which is my sign. In my System of the Tarot which I created and published in the early 70's which I gave the title" The Pentacle Layout System", The Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One is the number 7 in the deck. It rules all the other 7's in the 4 Suits of the Minor Arcana. In my opinion The Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One is one of the most powerful cards and least understood cards in the deck. The Hebrew letter for this card is Cheth which means" Fence." On the Qabalistic Tree of Life the Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One represents the 18th Path. This is the golden path between Severity 5 ruled by Mars and Binah 3 ruled by Saturn. Binah is known as "Understanding." As a" Fence, "the Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One is a "Protector" and "Guardian of the House" which is Beth the Magician Key1. I have always identified the Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One with the Great Pagan Irish Hero Cuchulain the Hound of Ulster. The quintessential hero in the Mythic tradition of Ancient Pagan Ireland. He is most prominent in the Irish Mythological Cycle of Ancient Tales. He was the greatest Charioteer-Warrior who ever lived in my humble opinion being that I am Irish-Cherokee and German. So to sum up: The Chariot-Charioteer- Victorious One is the Sign Cancer the Hebrew letter Cheth which is the "Fence" and has the Hebrew letter-number value of 8 and is the 18th Path on the Qabalistic Tree of Life. The golden path between The Sephiroth-Sphere Severity-Geburah ruled by the planet Mars and Understanding-Binah ruled by the planet Saturn. As the 18th Path of the Qabalistic Tree of Life it is given the title of the Intelligence of the House of Influence. In a reading this card could pertain to issues dealing with Protection and Guardianship and to all aspects of Travel. Travel means a great deal to us in this day and age of the 21st Century. Well I hope you liked what I said here and you got something out of it. The next update will be on the Strength Trump Key 8 the Sign Leo. I hope you will enjoy that one to. Until we meet again Take Care and Blessed Be. AD(arch-druid) Stephen W. Abbott here known as Stephen6580 and on other networks as Stephen93 and Abbottsinn and DruidMaster. Peace! Peace! Peace!

Abbottsinn International School of Magick
Hi! Everyone! I'm back. I'm sorry I have been gone so long but it could not be helped. I was ill with a bad virus which I could not get rid of. I finally got over it. Then my computer messed up big time. Now it’s working okay. Knock on Wood. Tegwedd my Partner in Crime always tells me to do that when I say something like: My computer is working fine now. As many of you know Tegwedd and I are writing a book on the Tarot which many of these blogs are being used in its content. The title of this book is: The Ultimate Guide to the Tarot. More on this subject latter. Today we will be talking about the Lovers Key 6. Of the Major Trumps of the Tarot. The Lovers is many people's favorite Major Trump of the Tarot. Mainly because Love as a concept plays such a major role in people's minds, hearts and lives. In this case the word mind is the key. The Lovers Key 6 represents in the Tarot the Astrological sign Gemini. This is an Air sign. The element of Air represents all aspects of the mind and its powers. It deals with Travel, Communication, Networking, Writing and Education. The Lovers Key 6 is the Alchemical secret of turning lead into gold: Because it is the Path leading from Binah-Saturn-Lead to Tiphareth-Gold- The Sun. Binah and Tiphareth are 2 Sephiroth or Spiritual Centers on the Qabalistic Tree  of Life of which we will speak more later.   I add to the element of Air the concept of the machinations of the mind. Gemini is ruled by the planet Mercury. Mercury is represented in the Tarot by the Magician Key 1. The Magician-Mage is the Grand Communicator the Master of Travel and the Powers of the Will. Its letter value is Beth which = House.  The Hebrew letter for The Lovers Key 6 is Zain which = Sword. I like to call it the Flaming Sword of the Intellect. Another one of the names of The Lovers Key 6 is Unity. The 2 unite to make one whole. The Lovers Key 6 represents the uniting of opposites. The uniting of male and female and light and dark and hot and cold you get the drift. Gemini has been seen to be rather schizoid in that with the concept of Love: It can feel good or it can hurt real bad. Two sides of a coin. This makes life interesting. We need conflict to keep us alert. If everything was good all the time we would get bored fast. Conflict keeps us active. I'm schizoid myself. While  I write  these words I'm listening to  my Metallica channel which  I created on Music Hunter from U tube. I find the music very relaxing and well I should because I have Venus in Gemini in my personnel Astrological chart. Go figure. The Lovers face number is 6 but its Hebrew letter number is 7. There is a Hebrew letter for each of the 22 Major Trumps of the Tarot, 22 Major Trumps 22 Hebrew letters such is the way the system is set up. The Lovers Key 6 can be seen to represent all those great romantic Celtic Tales where in the many love pairs in these tales are united by their love for each other to become one in spirit, body and mind. However the opposite can apply. In decks such as The Tarot Classic, Swiss Tarot and the Tarot Marseilles the meaning is that the Quent-questioner must make a choice between at least two alternatives. The image depicts a man trying to choose between two women. One is a golden-haired young maiden while the other is a dark haired older woman. One represents passion and the other wisdom. A similar card to this in the Tarot is The 2 of Cups which is the Lady of Love and Friendship and it can represent Love, Marriage, Friendship and Partnership.  Finally the Lovers can represent the alchemical marriage between opposites of women and man. I want to thank Tegwedd for her contribution to this blog entry. I will end by letting you all know that I am available for chat readings here on Keen. In fact I’m online now for chat readings come join me on chat. For those of you who are my Keen clients I will be sending you all an offer of 3 free minutes. Use them as you will and tell your friends that I take care of my clients and their needs. Please leave comments to this blog so I can answer them. Tell your friends to do so. I still offer to do e-mail readings here on Keen. Readings can be one a verity of subjects such as Love and Romance and Career and Finances. The reading can be as long as 9,000 characters. If you are interested in such a reading leave me a message in my inbox here at Keen. Well I guess we are done for right now. I will have a new blog entry soon. I hope you liked this one and got something out of it. The next blog entry will be on The Chariot-Charioteer-Victorious One Key 7. See you soon.
