Do you recognize this scenario in your life?
I am seduced by a dream, an ideal of how I want to live my life (The High Priestess). It takes courage to continue in the face of frequent adversity and struggle (Strength). At the same time it requires that I be blind to reality and remain steadfast in my determination that I can be who I want, do what I want, on my terms, even though it means I am often torn between my physical needs and my dreams (2 of Swords). These two aspects of my life are in conflict with one another, even when things look darkest and I feel I'm on the verge of giving up. But I remain steadfast and single-minded (King of Swords), and somehow challenges are met and difficulties overcome. Often I feel that I am in denial about the adversity tomorrow may bring as a result of my dogged refusal to change course, as I keep fighting the quotidian fight for survival, driven by emotion more than intellect (Knight of Cups). I feel that I am forever swimming upstream, toward the horizon in the distance beyond the horseman, forever called by the High Priestess. But I am at peace.
