Description
The Abortion Symbolon card depicts an old woman in dark, devilish colors (red and black) standing before a fiery chasm. She performs a ritualistic sacrifice of a small child, symbolizing a deep and painful sacrifice of innocence and emotional well-being. The inverted pentagrams on her collar signify her alliance with dark forces, and the captured demons watching from the underworld represent the oppressive, shadowy influences she is aligned with. The number two, associated with the devil, underscores the theme of strife and inner conflict.
Interpretation Within The Three-Card Spread

The Problem
What is the subject?
You are grappling with the effects of a profound emotional sacrifice or loss. This could manifest as a sense of being trapped in a dark, oppressive situation or feeling as though you have sacrificed a vital part of yourself. Your current struggle involves dealing with the aftermath of these sacrifices, including fabricated or inauthentic emotions that obscure your true feelings. There is a need to confront these depths to begin the process of healing and liberation.
2. Next Card
Way Through the Problem
How to deal with it?
To address this issue, you must confront and explore your suppressed emotions, much like descending into the underworld. This process is akin to Persephone's journey into the depths, where she faced and embraced her feelings before emerging into the light. You need to allow yourself to fully experience and understand these deep emotions to start the journey back to emotional freedom and clarity.
3. Last Card
The Result

- By confronting and removing the false images and self-delusions that have controlled you, you will find greater freedom and independence. Though the emotional wounds may still linger, you will begin to heal and regain control over your life. The false sacrifices and oppressive influences will lose their grip, allowing you to reclaim your true self and move forward with greater clarity and self-awareness.
