Maat

Thanks for stopping by!

For you, from the Daughters of the Moon Tarot, I drew Maat. The image shows a seat woman, arms upraised, one holding an ankh and the other holding scales. Above her is the sun, looking calmly out at you. I found an image of this card here: https://saidenne.wordpress.com/2012/03/21/maat/

Maat represents truth, balance, harmony, and justice. She symbolizes the order of the universe, things like the seasons following one another in a predictable fashion, but also making order out of chaos. It is her feather that determines if a soul is light enough to enter paradise after death. Maat is the daughter of the sun god; no doubt that is why his warm presence is so radiant behind her in the art of this card. The sun, too, follows an orderly path, rising and setting in a pattern that sets our days and warms our world.

I'm not sure if Maat is here to help guide you through the year, or if this card is referring to your role in the following year, either as the co-creator of your own life, or as the creator in the things you write. Either way, truth, balance, harmony, and order feel like good guides for action in the new year. Use them wisely, and their opposites sparingly, and only with good reason and care.
