The Evolution of the ‘Mother’ in TarotHelen Farley
The first tarot decks, beautifully hand-painted in the courts of
Northern Italy in the fifteenth century, boasted wonderful images of cherubim and angels, mysterious landscapes and many enigmatic figures wearing glorious robes of gold. At first glance, it would appear that the image of the mother was absent from these original decks. Though maternal images and themes were not explicit, I will argue that the mother has always been present in the tarot deck in some form, though admittedly a portrayal of maternity was not the foremost purpose of these cards. In the trumps, women appeared as
feminine personifications of the moon and astrology, the Theological and Cardinal Virtues, as the Popess (in more recent times known as the High Priestess), and as the Empress. Further, it was usually a woman who ruled over the World trump, typically the most powerful card in the deck. It was for the game of tarot that Queens were first added to the all-masculine court of King, Knight and Jack. By examining the likely identities of the female figures illustrated in Renaissance and subsequent decks, their status in the trump hierarchy and their subsequent divinatory meanings, I will argue that over nearly five hundred years, the role of the 'mother' in tarot has
become increasingly significant. In conclusion, I will demonstrate how the image of the mother has become explicit and integral in any New Age divinatory tarot decks, some entirely focused around the idea of the archetypal 'mother'.

Dear Ms. Ramirez:
I was excited to learn of the Database Administrator position at Georgetown University. I learned about the
position through your posting on Washingtonpost.com. My 7 years spent teaching students and cadets with
diverse backgrounds, as well as developing my Microsoft Access skills, make me an excellent candidate for this
position.
My work in technology and Microsoft Office at Year Up and Prince George’s Community College would bring
an innovative perspective to the Database Administrator position. For example, at Year Up, I created several
data tables and query designs by using Microsoft Access that required extensive studying. With this experience,
I believe I can add significant value to Georgetown as it develops a Microsoft database server. Additionally, I
received high evaluation marks from my coaches, who have stated that my approach to technology is
remarkable. With my technical skills and leadership qualities, I believe I can uphold the high standards and
expectations that Georgetown University sets for all their employees.
Along with my technical and Microsoft Office skills, I possess strong teamwork skills and extensive leadership
experience. Recently, I collaborated with three other people to complete a one-month project. This example
further demonstrates that I have the necessary skills and experience to manage short-term projects and work in
unity with others. Furthermore, I led various program initiatives and workshops within AFJROTC, such as
leadership skill building encampments. With confidence, I believe I can handle the expectations of a Database
Administrator position.
Sincerely,
Michael Jones
