Unfiltered

Daily Draw: Thoth Tarot ~ Priestess

Is she hidden, or is she hiding?  Does knowledge breed evil or does evil breed knowledge? Thoth Priestess is a combination of the gods Isis and Artemis. Their knowledge and purpose is translated to a veil rather than enlightenment.

I'm reminded by this card knowledge can be a tricksy thing. It changes who we are and how we perceive ourselves and the world. Like a train wreck, we slow down, turn our heads, drink it in, unfiltered. Our baleen plates and blowholes are broken. Has our  world broken us or have we broken the world?

I welcome your thoughts. Good bad or indifferent; opinions are the lifeblood of conversation and I always learn something from a new point of view. Thank you for visiting, Sharyn
