step 15
the ring/circle
hello there! i was wondering, are you a ring or a circle?
i’m a circle.
how do you know?
a ring is a special kind of circle. i am all circles.
what do you do?
here, i am a doorway, from the safe and familiar to the adventures outside.
do you move?
yes, of course. otherwise they could just build a permanent door here. no, the idea of having me here is to have something that can move.
what makes you move?
where the one who moves through wants or needs to go. where there is a passageway inside and out. where intuition moves me.
you are very thin. can’t the movers just go from here to there beside, above or below you?
of course they can. but if they want or need a doorway, that is what i can provide here.

the three dots
good afternoon, i was wondering if we could chat for a moment?
of course!
i’m not quite sure what you are doing in this card. can you explain?
i’m not sure if i can. is there anything specific you would like to know?
are you at all related to the sign for radioactive energy?
hm, not really. they aren’t really dots, are they? they are arranged in a similar way, maybe that’s what you mean. i wonder why you thought it was the same?
maybe there is something about you that seems radioactive to me.
i am a part of the universe and as such i am radioactive. i don’t know if i am more or less radioactive than you. i’m sorry i can’t help you there.
you are very friendly.
it’s lonely up here and nice to have company.
what about the cup, is the cup not company?
for some reason there isn’t much going on between me and the cup. it’s a little – well, to be honest, a little stand-offish.
and yet you are very close physically. there is less than half an inch of separation between the two. of you.
i know. i think it would be nice to visit the cup inside once in a while but that hasn’t happened yet.
have you asked?
hm. no.
could you do that?
you know, maybe i will.

this is the first lesson that i didn’t really enjoy. as dave suggested in step 14, i waited a little bit, but i don’t seem to want to budge. there is quite a bit more i could do with this step but i think i’ll go on now. but before i do this, i want to take into account his questions:
** what card(s) seem to be associated with the blockage? (in this case, what aspect of the card?) -- partly it is because there is so much on this card, it feels overwhelming. also, the next element i was going to look at would have been the symbol/sigil that looks like a one-eyed stick person.
** what don't we like, what do we like about the aspects of this card? -- it’s not so much that i don’t like all these different elements but i guess the only thing i really want to focus on is the lizard. i don’t want to look at all this other – stuff.
** how does our frustration feel to us? -- overwhelming and irritating and messy
** can you associate this frustration or blockage with a life experience? – doing my taxes, when all the calculating and paper shuffling just goes on and on and on and doesn’t seem to end.
