“Let us live for the beauty of our own reality.”

Charles Lamb

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: I must admit that I love when a reading with two different decks synchronizes together for visual effect. Notice that each card depicts a door of similar design–one closed and one open. Perhaps you recently stepped back for some necessary introspection in order to regroup with a clearer perspective. Karmic conditions required that you deal with what you’ve avoided, gain some spiritual enlightenment, and perhaps tend to your physical and emotional health. However, is it possible that the self-imposed isolation has become a prison of your own making? The inability to view the larger picture has you stuck in a situation you’d like to free yourself of, but change will only occur once you take responsibility for creating your own reality. The current crossroad offers two options: a. close the door on engaging with life fully and allow worry and stress to feed the fear or b. take the opportunity to create tranquility by focusing on what you want to experience. The magic is there without you worrying about how it will appear. You need only open the door to receive it.
