Interpretation of the card:
An old woman, dressed in the colors of the devil (red and black), stands in front of a fiery chasm and sacrifices a small child. As a symbol of her alliance with dark forces, she wears two inverted pentagrams on her collar. The number two represents the devil, the "instigator of strife." The cruel act is witnessed by the captured and petrified demons of the underworld.
The meaning of the Abortion Symbolon card
1) As a single or first card︱ The problem
WHAT IS THE SUBJECT?
The god of the underworld has a strong hold on you. You have sacrificed your soul to the enemy of life and now seek comfort from others. You consume their energy, hoping that someone can free you from the darkness. You have fabricated ideas that imitate emotions that are far removed from your true feelings. You still have a long journey to the light, as you must first experience the depth of the shadow world before you can find your way back to life.
2) As the next card︱Way through the problem
HOW TO DEAL WITH IT?
On your path, you need to descend into the underworld with your emotions, like Persephone did in the past. There, you will understand that you must first embrace and fully experience your feelings before you can rise again from the depths.
3) as the last card︱Result
WHERE DOES IT LEAD?
You have made sacrifices to false images and ideas of emotions, which were merely substitutes and self-delusions. To free yourself, you had to confront and remove many things from the depths of your soul. The wound will continue to hurt for some time, but now you are freer and more independent. The sacrifices no longer control you and no longer have power over you.
