Today's card came out blank and sideways... but the prompt was pierce... might be strange to decipher through feelings, but behind each act is a story... Some of these cards I try to apply the opposite on the reverse, but in this case, small victories can lead to near-death. Depends on what you're training for and what you seek protection from. Might feel like there is a fresh perspective to deal out in full swing, but if feelings are temporary, might be useful to ask the agony witch why she wails. Might be time to trust the experience, but let the self off the hook while checking the company you keep and the actions taken. Sometimes the person who swims against the tide has seen where the current flows to and chooses to exercise their ability to move, course correct and find a new path. Handcraft your protection, might seem like a block, but there are many signs, even if it might require a high level of willpower. Unlock your hidden powers by learning from what is and could be, since both sides could be similar and it's best to stay above the ruins.
