Hold That Pose

From the World Spirit Tarot, the Two of Swords:

This image depicts a much more realistic setting for indecision than sitting calmly on a bench. There is the feeling that he can't hold his stance forever; eventually he's going to have to make a choice. The blindfold tells me he's looking within for the answer from his Higher Self rather than turning to other people or following what his emotions or logic would tell him to do. Yet in his precarious position, he stands barefoot, which implies practicality. Whatever he chooses, I doubt it will involve riding off into the sunset on a unicorn.

From the Mystic Glyphs oracle comes "Backward:"

Ahhh... here is the reason the fellow stands balanced between two cliffs. Rogers explains this glyph is a signal that something has been overlooked or misjudged. I can get so excited about something, my feet are in motion before my brain is fully engaged. "Backward" encourages me to return for a second look, discussion or assessment before dashing off. Otherwise I'm going to neglect to pack something very important in my knapsack.

Untangling Knots

From the World Spirit Tarot, Justice:

I hate being wrong and I hate making mistakes, but as I look at this card I see a set of tilted scales and know something in my life is out of balance.  On the other pillar sits a book of fire, a record of all deeds both good and bad.  If I could look myself up in it, what would the tally be for being honest/dishonest, selfish/unselfish, and fair/judgmental?  Deep down I know that it is not integrity I'm dealing with, but the need to rectify a situation in which I have not been impartial and have been concerned for only my welfare.  Time to set those scales aright...

From the Mystic Glyphs comes "Backward:"

This glyph suggests that I have missed something important or need to make amends for some action.  I have a chance to make things right, to pay attention to details, and get back on track.  Better to untangle the knot I have now than wait until it has become a massive, snarled mess I can do little about...
