Today another swords card. Again a card I am
pleased to see. The two of swords. For me this is a peaceful card. I tend to
focus more on the stillness of this moment than on the decisions at hand. The
woman is sitting on a solid concrete bench. She is blindfolded and she has her
two swords crossed over her heart. Behind her the see seems calm, but she knows
better than anybody else what is beneath the still waters…. She has to make a
move, a decision, but not now, not yet. Breath, just breath…
I know I
have to let down my guard at some point; to lower my swords and remove the
blindfold to able to make decisions with more than only my mind. I have to be at
peace with what I decide. My heart has to be in it. When decisions are made after
just counting the cons and pros, you often feel regret afterwards but when your
heart is involved, perhaps you dare to explore the see behind you al little bit
more; drop by drop, wave by wave, tide by ti
de
Breathing space is a good thing. And it allows me to drop below my thoughts and emotions to my intuition. :)
ReplyDeleteMy metaphorical dive in the sea! :)
DeleteYes!
DeleteIt's funny, a friend was talking about this card just today, and how she saw it saying there's a stalemate and nothing to be done. I like your take on it of going deeper than just pros and cons, tapping into your intuition. I'll suggest that to her :)
ReplyDeleteThat is why I prefer two of swords depictions with a sea in the background as a metaphor to the unconscious.
