🌑 Shadow Work

No reading is complete without looking at our darkness. These are the uncomfortable questions you must ask yourself today:

  • Strength: What instinct or emotion am I trying to repress for fear of it being "too much"? How can I be more compassionate with my own inner "lion"?
  • Page of Swords: Am I using my "sharp mind" and investigation as a way to avoid the vulnerability of emotional depth? Do I believe that if I am not "the smartest" in the room, I am unworthy of being heard and respected?
