| Morgan Greer Tarot |
This daily draw from the Morgan Greer Tarot is at
first glance not such a happy card to get, but it might be not so bad as it
seems.
First of
all the depiction is gorgeous. Just a simple heart with three swords pierced through
it, but how vivid it gets because of the colors and the hatched shading.
Now let’s
take a look at the meaning. Usually the Three of Swords is connected to
heartbreak, grief and utter sadness and when you use the card for prediction that
can be rather frightening. But what if we instead think of the lesson to be
learned, the direction to be taken, when we draw this card?
For me the
Three of Swords is all about a disconnection between heart and mind. It is not
so much about how others hurt us to our core, but how we let them hurt us, because we are so vulnerable and insecure at heart
level. And perhaps even worse; what do you think of our own swords we clash on
a daily base into our hearts. Everybody has some negative self talk that can
make our heart bleed. We are often too afraid of the feelings our heart wants to express. Ever so quickly
we stab it and try do act if nothing has happened; if nothing is wrong. So instead
of pointing our finger at others perhaps it is time to get some emotional
bandage and patch up our own hearts.
Isn't the beginning
of spring not a lovely time to begin to allow ourselves to feel without being
cut off by (ir)rational reasons?
When this card comes up for me, it always makes me be conscious of the words I say (since I can't "unring" the bell). I suppose it is good to remember that others may say things they might regret later too, so I can try not to take things so personally.
ReplyDeleteThat is so right. I didn't think of that. It is so easy to get offended and then start snapping. It might be better to check if it was intended that way
DeleteHi Ellen!!! I like very much your reading, it' s very possitive and inspiring to look inside us and analize our attitudes too. I'm glad for your Morgan Greer! It's very beautiful! A kiss and Muchas Estrellas!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Las Magas for your kind words They always make me smile

That's a great take on that card as a daily draw. I always cringe when it comes up, but reminding myself to take care of my own heart is a nice way to look at it.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I used to find it a depressing card to. Thinking about it like this helped me a lot
