Full Moon August/Sept 2018
Angel Number 1717
A variant on the number 7 that I also saw at work the other day, is 1717. Following are some meanings that may be attached to it, from the website Chi*nese: Your Daily Dose of Motivation :
- Number 1 is the number of manifestation of your heart’s desires, while number 7 symbolizes knowledge, compassion and psychic abilities. The combination of these numbers is very powerful and encourages you to stay focused upon your life path and believe in your intuitive messages and manifesting skills.
- Can symbolize awareness of your life values, manifestation of your heart’s desires, or say that you have reached the stage of life when the manifestation of your desires becomes your natural ability.
- Can also symbolize an important soul mission, happiness and success in so many ways, sense of security and support, manifestation of your heart’s desires, manifesting skills
- Can be a sign that your commitment to manifestation work is paying off. You expect the best, so the best happens. The angels applaud your efforts, and they want you to know that you’re on the right life path. (Similar to 777.)
Advice:
- Always think about what you really want, not what you don’t want, because like attracts like according to your dominant vibrations. The universe does not recognize negative and positive. It only recognizes energy. Focus on what you love and what fulfills you. Be constantly present and accept new changes or challenges with peace of mind.
- Be yourself and don’t give anyone the power to make you feel inferior or “less than”. This number gives you maximum support in achieving your dreams and manifesting whatever you want.
- Carry pen and paper with you and write down all thoughts you had right at that moment when you saw 1717.

The Ten of Cups: My Take
6/18/18 Notes from Sacred Circle 10 of Cups:
- Appreciate what is being given.
- Tipping point of some kind.
- Shoot for the ideal.
- Harvest is right here. But there is still information to be benefited from if willing to travel the distance to get to it.
- Also harvest yet to be picked.
- FRUIT: Fruit are symbolic of fertility and ideas and plans coming to fruition (Biddy Tarot Symbolism pdf).
- LEAVES: Leaves symbolize growth and vitality (Biddy Tarot Symbolism pdf).
- RAINBOW: The rainbow is a sign of Universal protection, happiness and ideal states
of being (Biddy Tarot Symbolism pdf). - In a garden. What is garden symbolism?
GARDENS:
Gardens offer the ability to enjoy the beauty of nature in peace and
comfort. Gardens are also safe and relatively private, providing space for
retreat, relaxation and contemplation.
Gardens represent the fact that people have the power not only to
control nature, but also to improve it through nurturing and caring
for the earth. Think of a beautifully landscaped garden that is both
aesthetically pleasing and a sustainable food source.
Gardens are also living metaphors of perfection. They represent
cultivation and growth, all leading towards a natural paradise of
perfection. (Biddy Tarot Symbolism pdf)

(In an effort to maximize my time and energy in the Biddy Tarot Certification Course, I’ve decided to start journaling (which is blogging for me) about the weekly cards from which I pull inspiration and guidance towards my monthly goals. This is not authoritative information, just my personal notes.)
This week’s card is the Ten of Cups.
When I pulled this card a month ago, when I was doing my lookahead to the weeks in the month of May, I was using my usual deck, the Sacred Circle Tarot, by Anna Franklin and Paul Mason.
I had written in my notes, “Work is done. Crop is to be enjoyed.”
Numerical symbolism
End of a cycle and simultaneous renewal. In the realms of numerology, 10 also reduces down to 1 (1+0=1). And so, can also symbolize all the things that the number “1” does. (Biddy Tarot Numerology Chart) Anthony Louis phrases 10 as being “a transition point from one cycle to another . . . a number of completion and final ending. (Tarot Plain and Simple,)”
Astrological symbolism ..which planet rules the card…
Golden dawn says mars/pisces (To me, Mars is a Fire planet, so I don’t get that, but I don’t much like Golden Dawn anyway?)
Water : cancer, scorpio, pisces
Hindu decans – pisces scorpio (no clue what that (decans) is)
(Tarot Plain and Simple, by Anthony Louis)
Elements symbolism
water
Season and direction correspondence
Astrologically, The suit of Cups corresponds with the direction of North and the season of Summer.
The pagan traditions that I am familiar with cite Water (the cups) as corresponding with the direction West and so the season of Autumn.
I’m sure there are other traditions and cultures with other correspondences, but Autumn and West is what I work with. I can’t even wrap my head around North and Summer but – astrology is an ancient science so I’m sure they are more correct than we are? Either way – everyone chooses what makes sense to them and that’s what you work with.
6/18/18 Note: Water and the Cups and the West being correlated with Summer makes more sense to me now, with Swords ruling Autumn, Wands ruling Spring, and Pentacles ruling Winter, but I still personally work with Swords /Spring, Wands/Summer, Cups/Fall, and Pentacles/Winter, as I was taught that the directions follow East/Spring, South/Summer, West/Autumn, and North/Winter.
Major Arcana card
The Wheel of Fortune, or as my deck names it, simply The Wheel.
The AnnaFranklin.webplus.net interprets their Ten of Cups as:
Key word: reward
The ten cups of this card are full with the various good things of the harvest, the culmination of all the efforts of the farming year. They represent achievements of various kinds. The fruits depicted all have various symbolic meanings and energies, and play their part in our harvest celebrations.
Divinatory Meanings:
You are now reaping the rewards of all your efforts. It is a time of great happiness within the family and you will experience the joy of true friendships. This situation has firm foundations and will be long lasting.
Reverse Meanings:
Your well ordered environment will be disrupted in an extreme fashion, perhaps by the birth of a child or by a troublesome teenager. This card heralds family quarrels and the loss of friendships.
Some Key Words:
Peace, joy, happiness, contentment, love, family life, a good reputation, honor, virtue, harmony, a happy hearth.
I am now working with the Radiant Rider-Waite deck –
in that deck, the card looks like this:
