This week I'll be using the Tarot of Durer, created by Manfredi Toraldo and Giacinto Gaudenzi and published by Lo Scarabeo. The oracle deck I'll also be using is the Philosopher's Stone, created by De Es Schwertberger and published by AG Muller. Today's draws are the Seven of Chalices and Insight:
We all wish to be fulfilled, to accomplish something in our lives that makes us feel a pleasurable satisfaction. Yet these cups depict some avenues that seem more like vices: revenge, greed, spiritual bypass, and lust. Does anything provide contentment and ease when it is motivated by intense emotions? As Bechtold states, that seems to only dig a deeper hole the more we try to fill it. Insight is not simply knowledge or an observation, but a deep understanding about the reality of things. It offers a fresh perspective that allows us to respond in more skillful and wholesome ways. Perhaps with it we might discover that fulfillment requires genuine friendship, love, and connection, in whatever shape or form that may come in.
