IV The Anvil Gatemaker of Bells Three of Coils
MAJOR ARCANA: The lesson, challenge, gift, or opportunity in this situation.
IV - The Anvil (The Emperor):
The blacksmith's tool, world axis, sacred symbol, workbench, altar, source of authority, and deity. It holds the solidity of the earth's core and the tension of growing tree roots, and imposes sacred order, stability, and focus.
SPIRIT GUIDE: An aspect of yourself to draw on or develop.
Gatemaker of Bells: Air of Earth.
She is a bell in the shape of the flower, pods, and leaves of Pipevines, adorned with a pipevine swallowtail butterfly and chrysalids. Steady and contemplative, her work is slow but rich and complex, and her careful attention and focus arise from the changing earth.
NUMBER CARD: A focus for action or something that needs attention.
Three of Coils:
A cauldron, a dipper, and a sacred well cover with three windows showing bubbles rising from the deep source. Triskele spirals are offerings to the precious water that heals, cleans and nourishes everyone as it brings them together.
