This Mentor is a woman of great beauty who will help you learn about the sensual pleasures, fertility,
creativity, and manifestation. As your Mentor, she will teach you to be
comfortable in your body, appreciate the wonderful sensations your body can produce, and to love without manipulation. She has the ability to produce whatever she needs to
fulfill her desires--wealth, health, partnerships. She never is jealous or small-minded.
Think of the public persona of Demi Moore as an example of this Mentor. She embraces her body in its many forms. By sharing this versatility, she has become a powerful person,
a mother, and a wife with a successful career--a person capable of the feminine magic of fecundity.
Getting in Touch with Your Mentor
Spend some time enjoying your body and its sensual pleasures. Wear soft fabrics, use gentle lotions, and try subtle fragrances. Spend some time looking in a mirror and promise
not to leave until you can see your beauty.
Because she is so free and loving of everyone and everything, this Mentor has a tendency to love without commitment. Use her energy to get what you want without losing the
gift of commitment.
Your Mentor's Special Gift to You
From her you will learn to be completely pleased with who you are and how you are in the world. She loves her body and is able to love everyone she meets. When she loves,
she does not surrender but includes all in herself, as you will learn to do.
She never cripples herself or her associates by supporting their vices. She loves totally yet remains free from the "tainting" that can come from some relationships. Allow
yourself to enjoy being in her world.
Allow yourself to enjoy being in her world.

Take some time to re-invent your goal. What are you looking for? What would make you
happy? The clearer your intention, the more clearly you "see" what you want, and the clearer your journey to that goal.
This is a very important time for you to pause, look at the dynamics of your life, refresh yourself and then look for the radiance within yourself before proceeding. Harmony,
balance and peacefulness are the qualities of this deepening.
Think of what we popularly know about Gandhi, the great man who led the people of India in their non-violent struggle for equal rights and separation from England's domination.
Frequently, Gandhi would retreat to think about what to do--to find the right response to England and to the many different factions in India. In these times of quiet reflection,
he found the right response to help create the balanced peace that powerfully led them to self-rule.
Gandhi's public life provided a model for many brave people who have followed. Martin Luther King, Jr., and even the anarchist Malcolm X found non-violence and balance to
be the optimum path.
You, too, must move to a place of unselfishly calling for the action that will yield the right result in your quest. The Message here is to develop love, compassion and harmony.
Find your center of harmony and stay focused on that balancing point. You need to make sure you properly use your emotions and not let them run you.
Beware of becoming isolated or dependent or too busy. Furthermore, beware of becoming distracted by trifles such as jealousy, dishonesty and substance abuse, obsessions,
doubting your own worth, fussiness, or possessiveness. All of these are vanities that derail success.

You may use either a regular set of cards or an actual Tarot deck for
this assignment.
Feel free to define your own suits. Should you wish some assistance,
here is one set of suit definitions:
 |
Spades -- Rods -- Spirit |
|
Clubs -- Coins/Pentacles -- The Physical World |
|
Hearts -- Cups -- Emotions |
|
Diamonds -- Swords -- Intellect |
Similarly, feel free to define the numbers and face cards as you wish.
We offer only one possible set of definitions:
If a card is reversed, decide if it will mean that the information
applies only to your internal self or does it mean that the card should
be interpreted in a negative manner?
After you develop your language for interpreting the cards, draw and
then study three cards.
These three cards define your past, present and your future for the
issue about which you have concerns.
Notice the effect this information has on you--are you sad, happy,
angry? After your initial response, write in your journal your response
and then explain why you feel this way.
Hopefully you have selected a Mentor with whom you can draw information
about how to deal with this new situation. Ask your Mentor in writing
or in your imagination how that person would deal with this situation.
