The Tarot World Traditional Meanings

 

Having a moment of insight and clarity, wrapping things up with a happy and successful ending, a new cycle beginning (a willingness to step out on the path again), or having come full circle and taking a much-deserved rest (perhaps an eternal one).

 

The following letter from a husband to his wife sums up the Tarot World card quite nicely.

 

 

My Sweet Wife, 

 

Do you remember when we were young and foolish, making one mistake after another, thinking we had all the time in the world to correct things, how we thought life was just one long road of never-ending opportunities?

 

I look back on all of the times we quit our goals too soon and how procrastination, even laziness, kept us from success time and time again, simply because we were too afraid to commit to a task and see it through. When I think of those days gone by (only because I know we finally came to push through our illusions to get where we are today), I can smile warmly.

 

We learned to direct our own lives by sailing toward our goals, and, eventually, we reached the promised land, which, to my never-ending surprise, is not a destination at all, but the journey we've traveled together. We discovered that it is the journeying well in life that creates satisfaction at the end of a long life. One must learn to ride the waves of life rather than thrash, choke, or drown in them. We came close to drowning a few times, did we not? In truth, my lovely wife, there are times when I am convinced you are partially a mermaid for putting up with me for so long.

 

I must admit that all is well, and I am glad to say that we can now enjoy what we have overcome and achieved thus far. Still, I have no doubts, no doubts at all, that there will be more waves to cross on our journey in life together. But for now, I think this would be the perfect time to sail into the sunset. My beloved, how would you like to sail with me tonight?

 

Your Doting Husband, 

 

~ Robert

 

 

Note: When reversed, the Tarot World card can suggest a lack of vision, a refusal to move forward, a lack of closure, or a tendency to repeat old lessons. You might be trying very hard, but going in the wrong direction. Fear and reluctance cause stagnation. Listening to others' ideas can be beneficial.

There could also be problems with balance (in any area of your world), finishing what you start, or dizziness. Sometimes, it can mean death at the end of a long and fulfilling life.

Tarot Meditation

 

What are you getting ready to complete in your life? How do you feel about it? Is there anything else that needs to be added before things are finalized or you complete the process? Are you giving yourself the credit you deserve? What might you do or begin next?

 

 

Food Remedies

 

The Hierophant doesn't do well with spicy or processed foods. Stale, rancid, or astringent foods, soy, too many nuts (especially peanuts) and beans, nightshades, especially tomatoes, and eggplant, will bother the Melancholic temperament. The Melancholic fares better with diets containing meat.
