I really like that Two of Swords card, too. It also reminds me of The Fool card in imagery–women on the rooftops at night in precarious and invigorating scenes.

I wish you the best as you choose a direction.

I chose the Eight of Cups for my “demon” of the moment, seeing it as isolation. (I’m still getting used to the symbolism of the deck, so my instinctive guesses don’t often have to do with the archetypal meaning of the card.) The solution/ direction cards that jumped out at me were the Five and Ten of Pentacles–find someone else to care for.

Then I looked up the archetypal meaning of the Eight of Cups and found it to be moving/ moving on/ change… So I thought maybe my “demon” of the moment is indecision, since I’m still wavering about what to do for my major, for certain fellowships… I don’t really want to move irrevocably in one direction or the other. And going through the deck again, I found three appropriate cards: The Two of Swords (still my mind and look hard within) (by the way, this is one of my favorite cards–I love the feeling of space those tall towers give!); the Fool (take a chance and don’t be afraid of how it will work out); and the Ace of Swords (Excalibur!–choose a course and stick to it).

Let’s work with this deck again, please!
