Interpretation of the card:
This card depicts a scenario in which a magician uses a shell game to deceive a player and trick them into betting on the wrong shell. The magician manipulates the game by moving the shells around and making it appear as though the player has a chance to win. However, the magician ultimately removes the pea (which represents the prize) and the player loses, having fallen for the illusion and the desire to win. The story illustrates the danger of being misled by appearances and the importance of being aware of potential tricks or deceits.

WHAT IS THE SUBJECT?

2) As the next card︱Way through the problem
HOW TO DEAL WITH IT?
Your journey involves navigating through chaos and confusion. It can be difficult to find a way out, but this confusion can also be beneficial as it challenges you to distinguish between your aspirations and your need for stability, between what is essential and what you envision. Finding the balance between adapting out of fear and embracing your future is key.
3) as the last card︱Result
WHERE DOES IT LEAD?
