Hello!
As part of my Tarot Process, I started to analize every card on my deck (Marseilles) and to relate to other cards. Right now I'm working with the 2s. I'm trying to understand why this number is speciall and what his energy does on each specific suit. The problem is that some of my conclusions don't match the idea I previously had of some cards.
For example, take the 2 of pentacles. I always thought it meant balance, flexilibity, but as I took a closer look on the card I started to wonder what would happen if 2 people with the pentacles characteristics were working together. Yes, they could balance things out and find a way to meet every deadline and get the work done, but they could also get trapped inside each stuborness and leave no room for creative thinking. So now what happens if I get this card on a reading? Does it mean flexibility or stuborness?
The same thing happened with the 2 of swords. I know it means blocked emotions and denial but I relate it more to stability, balance, imparciality. On the RWD the woman has a piece of cloth around her eyes but I don't think that means she is refusing to see what's in front of her; I think she was wise enought to close her eyes and be impartial, that way she can give the same treatment to everybody.
I don't want to think my impressions are wrong but on Joan Bunning's card description she doesn't mention any of my interpretations at all, and I don't know if that means I'm way off and not doing this excercise right. Any comment will be greatly apreciated.
