I have a local card reader and friend who will often do a one card read for me on Friday nights at our local Mystic Treasures book store. In fact, it was her invitation to check out her skool community that lead me here to this group.
Back on track, she pulled the 8 of swords for me tonight. She spoke about it being a representation of a self imposed bondage, and other things. I was surprised and pleased that i understood a bit more about the card this time, and that the work here is paying off for me as i understand more and more. I also resisted buying another deck.
