Your vision will become clear only when you look into your own heart.
~Carl Jung
"Weigh your heart," White encourages us. Ma'at, the Egyptian goddess of truth and harmony, waits to place my heart on a balancing scale with a feather. What would cause it to be so heavy? Self-pity, anger, greed, and selfishness could add some weight, as well as ungrounded fear. Those emotions that I want to blame on a cause outside myself are actually seeds I've planted in my own mind. Yet the Backstab/Guilt cards suggest another reason. Backstabbing doesn't necessarily have to be dramatic; it can be more subtle, such as making up names for people ('Hairpiece Harry'). Yet those little psychological nicks and cuts I inflict on others can change the living tissue of my heart into lead. I think I'll take Jung's advice instead.
