Thank you for your thoughtful discussion on Death and the Tower. In my younger reading days, I used to rush to reassure the client that those weren't as bad as they look. Now, I expore their response to the cards, and I found some of your thoughts really helpful and insightful. It was in dealing with difficult cards that caused me to re-interpret the tarot for myself a few years ago. I always had difficulty interpreting 6s and 7s in the minor arcana. I didn't resonate with the RWS pictures, so I felt at "sixes and sevens" with those cards! My exploration took me to unexpected places and I'm so glad I went there. Difficult cards are all "grist for the mill," as they say. Thank you again, for a great podcast. What a great topic! Thank you for your thoughtful discussion on Death and the Tower.

For those who have not read December's newsletter yet, there is a wonderful interview with Leisa, and many other "gifts of the season". Roger: How nice to see you here again, and what a wonderful topic! I do think that while some cards may seem inherently to begin with, that each individual will have their own "shadow cards". It i interesting that you noted that when a client sees the difficult card in the past, they do react to it differently than if it is in the present (or future) position.
