(Sorry, hopefully this is the last post about this “issue” Sheesh!)

So, I was having a pretty good day. After a long lunch with a good friend, I bought three new tarot decks at half price books. I get home, and finish a rather nice trading day in the markets.

Then, I hear from Anon. Yay. Remember the the Anon Y. Mous story? Well, true to my initial reading, I have been quiet and passive. Trying to just fade out. In fact, I have not seen or spoken to Anon since that last posting on the topic. Wasn’t planning to, either.

So today, after such a nice morning and early afternoon, I get this email that says (amid a hysterical litany of allegations and allusions) that Anon doesn’t want to see me again at public meetings I attend. I should just stop participating, because Anon cannot deal with me, and needs me out of Anon’s life.

It was almost as if we had managed to have yet another falling out, even without being in contact. So strange! Perhaps, in Anon’s mind, we have been interacting quite a bit lately, and by the looks of it, I have been very naughty.

Anyway, this isn’t really even worth recounting, except it makes an excellent example of the power of the tarot to help us and reassure us. I reach for my new Celtic Dragon Tarot, and shuffle, and pull one card for advice. I got:

Card 13: Death. Wonderfully appropriate! I have been wondering if I have some kind of responsibility to at least try to help Anon out. I’m not the first by far to witness these strange temper changes, and these unreasonable authoritarian outbursts. No, there is a trail of schisms a mile long behind this person. Past “victims” I’ve asked about this are (rightfully, I think) worried about Anon. Well, this card reassures me, much like my initial “walk away” reading, that it’s not my responsibility. I’m not a mental health professional. Trying to fix broken people has never gone well for me, and in fact once it got me into a marriage that I later had to dissolve. So, the advice is Card 13: Release! Let Go! Off to newer, better things. And this is advice I intend to take.

I feel better!

(plus isn’t the card beautiful? I kinda like this deck)
