Hi wind,
I love and sucked in (can you say that?) every single line of your post. Thanks.
And it reminds me that I should better buy a book that keeps calling me from time to time. It's about the ancient myths which seem so important in understanding astrology, tarot and maybe life also... (it's a book from Liz Greene about those myths and their meaning- on my wishlist for quite some time)
Yes, I think that is important - to honor the roots.
(... talking about the new...) That's definitely freeing.
When I think of the astrological Moon in ones chart I think of the realm of feeling and emotion of course. But it is also about unconcious habits of reaction (especially in unpleasing situations) and certain attitudes towards life (maybe based on past experiences...). I'm not really sure if that is also part of the realm of the High Priestess. I don't think she is also about habits...
So maybe that could be an example that the astrological moon and the "tarot-moon" (GD) are not matching 100%.
I also think of the devil. Capricorn fits quite well. But when we face the devil then (astrological) planet pluto comes to the surface and calls for transformation I think. So maybe Capricorn doesn't cover all of the devil? But I'm not sure about that...

Just go on and create your own system New and evolving approaches are always welcome, they contribute to the growth. However, the human mind likes established structures (is very Saturnian) So we need to find a mix between the old and the new, grow roots in the old, but by all means allow new awareness and insight.

Well, the idea that the astrology in Tarot is different from what actual astrologers use is somewhat difficult to grasp, but quite freeing
