Description
The Master Symbolon card portrays an elder figure amidst a cold, barren mountain landscape, embodying the archetype of the strict teacher and guardian of wisdom. The old man raises his index finger while pointing to an ancient law book, symbolizing the importance of recognizing and adhering to one's own internal laws and responsibilities. Behind him stands a gate barred by a crown, signifying the threshold to objectivity and a realm of true mastery. The skull represents the inevitability of death, and the hourglass symbolizes the relentless passage of time. Although the old man’s demeanor may seem stern, there is an underlying sympathy for those who have yet to embrace the seriousness and responsibility required to progress.
Interpretation Within The Three-Card Spread
1. First Card
The Problem
What is the subject?
The Master card reveals that you have become internally hardened, retreating behind emotional armor that prevents others from reaching your inner self. You may have isolated yourself on a metaphorical mountain peak or fortress, condemning the world and blocking access to your own inner child and emotions. This self-imposed fortress is not caused by external factors but by your own refusal to face and accept responsibility for your internal barriers. It is crucial to recognize and take responsibility for this self-constructed isolation.
2. Next Card
Way Through the Problem
How to deal with it?
Addressing this issue requires a shift in approach to life—one that embraces gravity and seriousness. The time has come to confront your challenges with sincerity and maturity. Cease the tendency to blame others for your difficulties or to expect them to solve your problems. Instead, focus on taking personal responsibility and growing into a more mature, self-disciplined individual. This process involves acknowledging the seriousness of your situation and embracing the responsibilities it entails.
3. Last Card
