If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins. —Benjamin Franklin
The Charioteer in this image is a marble sculpture known as the Agrigento Youth; it took a violent fall, likely from an earthquake, losing his nose and parts of his arms and legs. The 'horses' are Naxian sphinx statues that guarded Apollo's temple at Delphi. Greek mythology describes them as merciless to those who could not answer their riddles. This card represents the strength of determination to reach one's goals. But what happens when life sends an 'earthquake' that disrupts our progress? Do we allow our baser instincts and emotions to run the show? Doing so would likely only create more problems than we are currently dealing with. The Lenormand Key offers us a way to meet our challenges wisely, by reining in our wild, chaotic thoughts and seeing with an unbiased perspective. Dispassionate attention can assist us in recognizing any resources that might aid us so that we can move forward once again.
