I. Analyze and describe 3 of Swords Thoth Tarot
Thiscard represents obscurity because the storm has come and disrupted the balance;finally, the storm comes from within and forces us to grow up, beyond our owninherent framework, so it will cause pain as its nature. This card shows thatliberation energy from our own development process is reasonable. The bluesword is the magic sword showed in the first card of this suit (Ace of SwordsThoth card). Along with two curved swords, it pierced and destroyed the yellowrose – the symbol of perfection – with a powerful stab. Rose petals fall, andin the background, the storm begins to rise.
II. Interpretation of 3 of Swords Thoth Tarot
1. Energy
This card symbolizes stereotypical actions arising from stereotypical thoughts (2 of Swords Thoth). We can only move by action, but actions can only be consciously realized in the visualization of the world we create. The desire for extreme knowledge and the craving for action has caused bad results and, in some cases, catastrophe.
2. Inner
Thiscard shows that we find ourselves lost in cognitive development that is full ofpain and frustration. We separate ourselves from trustworthy perspectives andestablished habits and must overcome our own laziness. The card also warnsabout the abuse of the power of the mind (masculine) to penetrate the flower(feminine) so that it can take the mystery of life. In the end, the flower wasdestroyed and the secret remained hidden, but the power of nature created aforce against the intrusive penetration of mysteries.
3. Career
Thiscard means that we are harmed or hurt and have painful experiences caused byfailures or endings. We can almost do nothing to solve this situation. All wecan do is to understand the reason why we fell into this stuffy situation andto avoid having to encounter an unreasonable similar situation. The most commoncause of this situation is that intellectual capacity is used in an overlycalculated, cold-hearted, and biased way.
4. Sentiment
Thiscard represents frustration, humiliation, insult, hurt and sometimes, the endof the relationship. But it may also have a positive meaning due toassertiveness, even if vulnerabilities can be encountered, we still separateourselves from our negative relationships that cause suffering.
