Michael Sternbach Posted October 10, 2016 Hello AcEs,  Your query, as presented to me by PM, is how you might deal with those fears of long standing that hinder you so much in your daily life.  I laid out a seven-card ellipse for this, using my "default" deck, the Thoth.  1                  7 2          6 3     5 4  Where 1 = past or what is about to end = XV (The Devil) 2 = present = Queen of Disks 3 = future or what is about to begin = 2 of Swords (Peace) 4 = recommended course of action = Ace of Wands 5 = environment = 4 of Swords (Truce) 6 = hopes and fears = 6 of Disks (Success) 7 = long term result = Princess of Cups  Summary: X (Fortune) Shadow card: 0 (The Fool)  What is (luckily!) on the decline is your being bound by your fears (The Devil). The Queen of Disk on the position of the present shows that you are indeed about to reach an "oasis." Just like this Queen on the Thoth card, you will be looking back at the long way you have come through the desert from this frutile spot, where you can relax and enjoy what you achieved. In keeping with this, the Two of Swords indicates a state of mental peace in the near future.  Now is the time for taking action! The Ace of Wands urges you to gather all your courage and tackle those things which your fears have kept you away from so far. Don't hesitate to take the challenge of entering new situations. You are presented with the opportunity to go beyond your former limitations now and establish new patterns of behaviour - seize it!  Your environment will be supportive of your efforts, as the Four of Swords (Truce) shows. As you reach out, there will be friendly faces welcoming you. Surely, life may bring on more demanding situations again one day, but not in this time. And by then, you will have acquired the ability to handle them with confidence.  The Six of Disks as Hopes/Fears shows that you are settling for nothing less than resounding success, and in fact, the Princess of Cups as the long term result indicates your liberation from former emotional inhibitions and your finding a new lightness of life.  In keeping with all this, Fortune as the spread's summary speaks to the great change that is immanent and which will lead you to exciting new possibilities.  Finally, there is the so-called shadow card, taken from the bottom of the remaining deck, indicating an aspect that is relevant even though it may not be fully recognized. Here we have The Fool, which stands for living in joy and freedom. The Fool doesn't allow fears to limit him. Even if they creep up once in awhile, there is no way that you will allow them control over you any longer wit this card.  This is an outstandingly encouraging reading, clearly indicating that this is the time to take a big step forward into a much more fulfilling life!  Best wishes on your way,  Michael 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
