From the Cosmic Tarot, the Nine of Swords; from the L'Oeil de Lotus, Healing:
This is the human version of Chicken Little's "the sky is falling." Keep in mind those swords are thoughts and words, and it's easy to make the comparison. Granted, biology has wired us for cognitive bias. But sometimes we need to pause and ask what actually has happened and what part is the imagination mushrooming things into a destined disaster. The body doesn't know what's real or fantasy, so it will keep pumping out adrenaline and stress hormones based on what the mind settles on. No wonder Healing makes an appearance. In such cases, the best remedy can often be a wise, compassionate friend who will listen and then show us how we have taken a bad moment or situation and stretched it into never-ending woe.
