This card is haunting me (along with 2 others!)
When I look at this card I see the ladder of something uncomfortable, something which seems almost insurmountable, how do you walk on blades or fire or broken glass? Do you have to fly?
Being at the bottom, starting from the base chakra and ascending.
A brief discription from the site reads:
The woman at the bottom spreads her hands in fear or aprehension at the task ahead because the first hawk blade/rung appears to be SO big, almost insurmountable. Yet each blade becomes smaller and smaller and IF she climbs knowing that it cannot harm her or flies above, eventually she turns into the hawk spirit that she so feared.
This card to me is about changing our subconscious, changing the direction we normally take and facing our fears. In order to bring ourselves to a higher place or to move forward we come to a time where we have to make difficult decisions and get out of the comfortable ways we are used to.
What say you?

A brief discription from the site reads:
Five of Blades: A feather-crowned shaman contemplates a ritual ladder of hawk-shaped sawblades. To pass the test and ascend to the sky, she must grow wings or climb without fear that the blades will injure her.
