This card displays your obvious identity, the part of you that everyone knows.
9 of Disks – Gain
Venus in Virgo
Six of the nine disks have now turned to coins, representing material gain. The three spiritual disks converge in the centre, forming a colour wheel and a rainbow. There are two triangles formed by the coins, one male and one female. A card of material gain.
Meaning:
Inheritance, increase in wealth, material fortune, accomplishment.
When ill-dignified: envy, theft.
This card shows unconscious driving forces that neither you nor your company is aware of about you. This is the Great Unknown.
2 of Swords – Peace
Moon in Libra
Two swords stuck in a mound form the shape of a V, the symbolic gesture of peace like the hippies were so fond of. The owners have thrown their arms down in the spirit of harmony.
Meaning:
Contradictory characteristics of the same nature coming together. Pleasure after pain. Quarrel resolved.
The secrets you keep from others are shown by this card.
Prince of Swords
2:00 – 4:00 Male
Aquarius
The Prince of Swords rides the sky in his cloudy chariot of air, pulled by three young men representing his thoughts and ideas. He symbolises purity of the intellect, but also instability. As he pushes forward with his sword, he is frustrated. His thoughts are all over the place. In his left hand he holds a sickle, symbolising his tendency to destroy his creations as quickly as he makes them, perhaps overly critical of his own ideas.
Meaning:
A pure intellectual, clever but unstable of purpose, a mind full of various contradictory ideas and opinions.
This is your Blind Spot. This is what you asked about – what you wished to be made aware of by this reading.
7 of Disks – Failure
Saturn in Taurus
Seven seals linked by the rainbow bridge descend enlightenment to the bull. Ignorant and arrogant, he blocks his own path. The darkness of his own delusions repels his gift from above, scattering the light.
Meaning:
Sloth, abandoned labour, hopes deceived, promises unfulfilled, disappointment. Great effort producing little gain.
When well-dignified: charity work for no profit, growth after delay.
