The Sceptic's Tarot

Do you remember the technique, Worry Wisdom? How about using that technique for different dualities?

I love this technique because:

• you get two different perspectives on the issue when you swop the cards (and getting a new perspective is crucial in solving problems),
• you draw two cards but get four pieces of information, and
• it illustrates that dualities always contain the seed of one within the other.

So here we go:

1. from the list below, decide which duality you want to explore,
2. draw two cards,
3. place them in the criss-cross position below,
4. read the cards in this two-card spread, then
5. swap the cards (card 1 becomes card 2, and card 2 becomes 1) and read the spread again.

The dualities

Strength / Weakness

Any weakness can become a strength. But in every strength is the possibility of weakness if you're not careful.

You have dreams, but reality intrudes. Make your dreams come true.

Inner guidance / External perspective

Before you act, look at what your intuition urges you to do with an objective eye.

Explore two obstacles and find two solutions.
