This card shows four cups, isolating a dual square, which is isolating two embryos, who are almost ready to be born.
The squares symbolize Chesed, the four forces that bind us and the physical world, connected to Malkuth.
The two embryos, one white and one black emblematize many things. First, the symbol for the sign of cancer (connected to the major arcana card of \u201eVII – The Conqueror\u201c, which strongly influences this card with all of his features. Second, the isolation and seclusion in a sphere, where even, while being together, the unborn children are separated.
In an occult context, the dual child is an obvious symbol, which can be explored while resting in this state of meditation. Like thoughts, these \u201echildren of the mind\u201c cannot emerge and are not able to connect to each other yet. A conclusion, which is already forming as an idea, may not be ready yet, to be expressed or can\u2019t be connected in a productive matter. Yust like a baby, ready to be born, but still present in the mother\u2019s womb, this can cause a great deal of discomfort and restlessness. Even sickness, sleep problems and disturbances of the body, may occur as an accessory phenomenon. There is a reason, why it is so difficult, to deal with this state of mind. In contrast to being alone by choice, this situation is usually forced upon us. As a result, a great deal of stress may be experienced. Almost no one can live through this phase in an exceptionally positive way, since we are just not used to this kind of isolation. A third square, with four chains reinforces the symbol of captivity.
In the background, we can see a huge tower, build on a stable rocky mountain. Like an axis, we watch the world spins around, while our own situation rests in immobility.
On top of the tower sits a clock, without watch hands, representing a seemingly timeless state.
Myths of dark towers, where a person is being held, captive may come to mind. Cropped off from the world, the situation seems without resort, which makes dealing with it even harder.
The major arcana card of \u201eXVI – The Tower\u201c is strongly connected to this dire card. But unlike the major arcana card, this tower still sits steady on its ground stone. Only time can weaken its foundation.
The eye of Horus is embedded into a chain within the tower. This means, that the redeeming thought, or action is already forming, but not yet ready to be released.
A way out of this situation should be obvious but is hard to accept. We must watch the world spin and be patient \u2013 there is still something to learn here and nothing to actively do right now. Every movement will cause even more trouble.
We must accept to wait for things to be sorted out by themselves \u2013 only time will heal our wounds and solve the equation at hand.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
