From Tarot by Caro, the Eight of Swords; from the Holitzka I Ching, Hexagram 14:
When we trip and fall, we use the ground (what caused us to trip, in a sense) to push ourselves back up. In the same way, when we feel overwhelmed by our thoughts, we can push against them to find our way back to sanity. As Byron Katie expressed, do I really, absolutely know that my thoughts are true? Not just that an event happened, but all the stories I spin around it? We can use those sharp edges to cut through what is created by the anxiety of speculation. Hexagram 14 is called the Great Possession, referring to abundance but on more than just the material level. The two trigrams that make us this hexagram relate to strength and clarity. When we see clearly the many resources we have - relationships, our talents and abilities, and a discerning mind - we can find the strength to cut through the worries that bind us.
