Learning the Tarot - An On-Line Course. Casting the Runes - Page 4 of 4. The Quest for Truth Cast This cast will give the most detailed analysis of personal destiny. It must be undertaken by an experienced Runemaster or Runemistress on behalf of the questioner (The Querent). The cast requires the selection of nine runes: one by the Runemaster, the other eight by the Querent. The Runemaster/Runemistress should spend some time in conversation and company with the Querent to get a feel for the person and the subject.
Then the Runemaster or Runemistress will select a single rune in the usual way which will represent the Querent. The bottom right rune (drawn by the Runemaster/mistress) representing the Querent is known as the significator. The Three Lifetimes Cast This cast is dedicated to reincarnation, and should not be practised lightly.

Animal Symbolism. An Online Guide To Dream Interpretation. Moon Phases. Why does the Moon have phases? At the new Moon phase, the Moon is so close to the Sun in the sky that none of the side facing Earth is illuminated (position 1 in illustration). In other words, the Moon is between Earth and Sun. At first quarter, the half-lit Moon is highest in the sky at sunset, then sets about six hours later (3).
At full Moon, the Moon is behind Earth in space with respect to the Sun. As the Sun sets, the Moon rises with the side that faces Earth fully exposed to sunlight (5).The Moon has phases because it orbits Earth, which causes the portion we see illuminated to change. The Moon takes 27.3 days to orbit Earth, but the lunar phase cycle (from new Moon to new Moon) is 29.5 days. The Moon spends the extra 2.2 days "catching up" because Earth travels about 45 million miles around the Sun during the time the Moon completes one orbit around Earth.
