The Tower – XVI (The Naked Heart Tarot) – Photo: L. Weikel
An Observation
I’m finding myself coming up dry lately. I’m feeling such a tug toward silence and keeping my thoughts to myself, that I’m finding it difficult to speak (or rather, write) about the matters recently taking up residence in and occupying my mind.
We managed to take a walkabout early this evening (the four miler), which nevertheless failed to manifest even one worthy photo-op that might have provided me with fodder for a post.
But we did choose cards again from The Naked Heart Tarot,* the deck I wrote about just the other day. And didn’t The Tower show up for me yet again today?
It was underneath – again – which pretty much leads me to understand that there continues to be major fallout from the “Sudden and Unexpected Shift in Energy” of last week. And that lightning bolt of truth and insight I experienced does indeed sit at the foundation of much of what I’ve been contemplating and experiencing since then.
The primary card I chose was the Mother of Cups.** Interestingly, this card is also known as the ‘Shaman’ of emotional wounds.
“…There may be a strong desire to solidify your emotions, and move on to the next stages.”
Hmm, yes. That’s a definite. Moving on is essential.
And I can’t help but see this in application to our world at large, too. The Tower continues to sit underneath so much of what we’re witnessing in the world at the moment. Let’s hope the ‘Shaman of emotional wounds’ can heal us all.
