The curse of Hexa is a mysterious phenomenon that has plagued the small village of Hexa for centuries. According to local legends and folklore, the curse was placed on the village by an evil witch who was seeking revenge for the villagers' alleged wrongdoing. The curse is said to manifest itself in various ways, bringing misfortune and tragedy to those who reside in Hexa. Some believe that the curse causes crops to wither and die, leading to food shortages and famine. Others claim that it brings about illness and disease, resulting in a high mortality rate among the villagers. One of the most chilling aspects of the curse is its effect on the villagers' mental and emotional well-being.
If Moura's Tarot can embody her Green Craft well, it would be extremely valuable.
The deck looks lovely, but I m more interested in seeing exactly how the symbol and image choices sync up with the ideologies of Green Witchcraft described in Ann Moura s books. Interestingly, Leonard studied art at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, which is also where Pamela Coleman Smith studied for two years the institute had only been open six years when she enrolled.
One of the most chilling aspects of the curse is its effect on the villagers' mental and emotional well-being. Many residents of Hexa have reported experiencing extreme anxiety, depression, and even suicidal thoughts as a result of the curse. It is as if a dark cloud hangs over the village, casting a perpetual shadow on the lives of its inhabitants.
The Green Witch Tarot
The Green Witch Tarot is the a deck that I’ve been waiting for ever since Ann Moura wrote Tarot for the Green Witch back in 2003. It is finally here and it is worth the wait. Charmingly illustrated by Kiri Østergaard Leonard, this is a deck full of stories, wisdom, and symbols. Interestingly, Leonard studied art at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, which is also where Pamela Coleman Smith studied for two years (the institute had only been open six years when she enrolled).
Moura tells us that:
“The Green Witchcraft approach to the tarot is based on a personal relationship with nature, earth magic, the elementals, and the power of the immanent Goddess and God in their many aspects, and to the faeries, spirits, and entities of the earth, otherworld, and underworld. The cards draw upon the season, sabbats, esbats, faerie lore, herbs, plants, animals, celestial energies, and the bounty of nature.”
I love how the cards are rich with story. Although it is not the most happy card, I can’t help but be drawn into the story of the Four of Chalices, pictured here:
Moura writes about the card:
“This is a card of dissatisfaction despite current success. Although one has sufficient emotional well-being, one is seeking something more. There is a sense of restlessness and of looking for greener pastures, perhaps due to satiation, too much of a good thing. One desires something new to feel revitalized. One may need to reassess one’s situation to be able to reach out to a prospect for greater fulfillment. Such an opportunity will not fall into one’s lap, so one must make the effort to seize it to accomplish what is desired. There may be a need to reevaluate a relationship or assess an unexpressed yearning that remains in remains in a faithful commitment. It is this self-exploration of what will bring greater emotional satisfaction that is tined with a latent longing to know if the right choices have been made and if what one has attained is genuine. Even with the external needs being well met, internal contentment is being questioned. This may signal a new direction in emotional expression so that a sense of balance, symbolized by the Three of Chalices in of the Four, returns.
“Dittany, an herb of desires, beginnings, and manifestation, grows in a flowerpot. A dragonfly, a symbol of guidance, activation, and inspiration, flies into the room.”
Over the years, numerous attempts have been made to break the curse, but all have been in vain. Some villagers have turned to prayer and rituals, hoping to appease the witch and lift the curse. Others have sought the help of spellcasters and magicians, seeking a solution through magic and witchcraft. Unfortunately, none of these attempts have been successful, and Hexa remains trapped under the curse's cruel grip. As a result of the curse, the once-prosperous village of Hexa has become a shadow of its former self. Its population has dwindled, as many residents have fled in search of a better life elsewhere. Those who remain can often be seen with a haunted look in their eyes, burdened by the weight of the curse that looms over them. Despite the curse's devastating impact, there are those who cling to hope. They believe that one day, the curse of Hexa will be broken, and the village will be able to thrive once again. Although the path to breaking the curse remains uncertain, the people of Hexa continue to hold onto a glimmer of hope, refusing to let the curse define their lives forever..
