Card # 1: Nine of swords: the situation         

WORRY. ANXIETY. DEPRESSION. MAKING MOUNTAINS OUT OF MOLE HILLS. NEGATIVE THOUGHTS. LETTING OUR FEARS GET THE BEST OF US. INSOMNIA. MENTAL DIS-EASE.    With the nine of swords, we see the effect that worry has on the mind, emotions and body. Something we have done, said, or put in place has us very worried and tied up in knots.  We are restless and we find ourselves tossing and turning all night. No matter what we do or how we try to dismiss these worries that plague us, it’s to no avail. We can’t seem to shake this feeling of doom and gloom or shut off our thoughts and worries. We lay awake… possibly thinking up worse case scenarios in our heads, blowing everything way out of proportion. We have taken a simple thought and created our own monster out of it. We have made a mountain out of a mole hill by building worse and worse outcomes through out the night. Perhaps it was the moon or a bad dream that was playing tricks on us and distorting our usually rational thinking. Things always seem bleakest before the dawn, for whatever reason, our thoughts have gotten way out of hand. What in all likelihood is not even a big deal…  could manifest into an actual problem if we don’t get our thoughts under control. Worrying needlessly can cause mental fatigue, emotional issues, as well as physical ailments such as ulcers, headaches or body aches through tension. The nine of swords is letting you know, whatever you are worrying about isn’t worth losing sleep over. It isn’t likely to happen at all. It’s all in your mind at this point. So let it go, get some rest and everything will play out in your favor once you calm down and deal with it logically in the light of day. Remember, if you think something long enough… it will become real. Thoughts can become manifest. So why not think happy thoughts and manifest something wonderful instead?!!!  You might have found yourself discontent , and over time it has slowly progressed into depression. The same mean comment someone said to you or behind your back keeps playing over and over in your mind and getting louder and louder. Negative thoughts keep tumbling through your head and now you can’t seem to pull yourself out of the depression these things have started in you. You keep playing scene after scene of what could happen in your head, bringing your energy level down and possibly crippling you with fear. Again, the worst case scenerio isn’t likely to happen unless you won’t let it go. You don’t have to forget it so you can protect yourself from going there again, but maybe you should forgive so you can move on. It’s okay to leave the things that no longer serve your highest good behind. Just don’t keep carrying around the pain… it won’t bring you peace. So, find the silver lining in even the toughest situations in order to heal, learn and move on into a positive state. Everything looks better in the light of day!

            Card # 2: mythic reality: advice         

Something is causing you concern at present because you are viewing the situation from only one perspective. Look with an open heart and mind and you may see that a positive side also exists. Things may very well turn in your favor if you let go of preconceived ideas and rigid views. There are at least two perspectives from which to view every situation. What you see at present is only part of the picture. Often, what seems real to us may not necessarily be what is actually occurring. The true purpose of many of life’s events is often unclear because of our false assumptions, fears and misconceptions. There is no need for concern; just allow things to naturally unfold and all will become clear to you. Remember, you may not have the power to change the world or even many of the events in your life, but you have the power to change your perception of them. “All becomes clear when I view it from a higher perspective.”
