It is an unlisted app meaning you can only find it with a link that is included in the book.  I have made the link available to readers of this blog at the end of this post<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Periodic Tarot of the Elements<\/strong> app is a companion to the book<strong> \u201cThe Periodic Tarot of the Elements\u201d<\/strong> by Mochi Kaimu. It replaces a physical deck of cards with a digital version you can use to connect with the intelligence that deeply rooted in all things. Tarot Cards have been used as a spiritual guide and a way of connecting with the universe for centuries. Traditional Tarot Card draw on imagery and symbolism associated with spiritual traditions that predate Science. <strong>The Periodic Tarot of the Elements<\/strong> book and app seek to integrate Science with the intelligence inherent in Nature. The founding tenet of the book is that intelligence is not just confined to Homo Sapiens but is everywhere; in plants and animals, in microbes, bacteria and single celled organism, even in rocks and minerals. And what are all these made of? Elements in the periodic table. Everything on Earth is made up of elements which came into being during the creation of the universe and in the spectacular supernovas at the end of a star&#8217;s life cycle. Homo Sapiens, along with everything else on the planet was created from elements born in the hearts of exploding stars. To say we are made of star dust is not just hyperbole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The 68 Elements that make up <strong>the Periodic Tarot of the Elements<\/strong> were chosen because of their significance to life and life processes. By integrating Science with Spirituality and seeking<br>guidance from the elements that make up ourselves and our world, it is hoped that we can come to see the divine Nature. To elevate ourselves and our environment to the realm of the sacred will go a long way towards our survival as a species. By locating the source of the divine in the very elements which make up the Universe rather than in some abstract unknowable force or in a being which is no more than a projection of our evolving sense of self we can learn to place value upon what is currently not valued; the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat and the other species we share this planet with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book contains images of all 68 Periodic Tarot Elements along with descriptions and interpretations of each element. It will be available later this summer on Amazon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mochiandcolleen.com\/images\/2024\/JUNE\/app.JPG\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.mochiandcolleen.com\/images\/2024\/JUNE\/app.JPG\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3297\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>APP LINK: https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/app\/periodic-tarot\/id6502961690<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jakobi and Ambiana left Friday to spend 12 days in Ireland with their 1st cousins once removed.
