Day 2 of the Magpie Tarot Challenge touches on the energies we’ve carried forward and how those energies affect who we are today.
Card 1 is an aspect of a previous life that most affects this one. Using the Mystical Shaman Oracle, I drew the Andean Cross card, which represents the cosmology of the shaman. It depicts the four cardinal directions, the upper and lower worlds, and the steps to reach these realms. The hole in the center is a gateway to interdimensional travel, the proverbial eye of the needle we can all go through to experience higher states of awareness and wisdom and to break free of linear time.
Card 2 points to where those traits affect us still. For this I drew The Sorcerer, which is the source of dark power. The Sorcerer represents the destructive aspect of the human psyche and the self-centred behaviour that harms others. It symbolizes the unconscious beliefs and ideas that foster separation, conflict, and scarcity.
*I struggle with these destructive ideas so I guess the next step is to change them!
