Cards by Jinn

Dear Reader,

After an absence of prediction-making, I have been inspired once again to create.  In the past, predictions came by way of the ephemerides or the count.  Each method was a bit different in its method of gaining perspective…the ephemerides were created by viewing the planets’ aspects, a most traditional and reliable means of prediction.  The count was created by using an ancient method of understanding the natural life rythem, where life seems to fit some sort of harmonic pulse; numbers were involved, in that a 13-day period can be said to have a certain ’flair’ to it, with each individual day expressing this flair in a slightly different mode.

Last november, when the count was completed, even though it was done, I knew I wasnt done making predictions and providing inspiration.  The count is a story, with a beginning, middle, and end ("There is a constant strive to persevere" and "…it is enough."–  from 1 Malinalli 3-24-2009 and 13 Quiahuitl 12-6-2011, respectively)

My new article will be tittled, "Quatrain", named after the four lines each inspiration will come out as.  Perhaps it is my choice, or maybe the choice of another, that prompts me to do this thing.  This style is not new, and I will not take any credit for inventing it.  From China, Arabia, Persia, France and England, this four line poetry is a classic, and one that I will enjoy.  I hope you will to.

Always,

Jinn
