Cards 18 and 9
The Moon
The HermitWhen there’s confusion and chaos outside, we can still get away to somewhere quiet. But the chaos inside your mind, where do you run or hide from that?
People with 18 and 9 are always thinking. They have imagination and always have ideas in their heads, some useful, some not. They also love researching. When they want to know something, they really want to know it, and in depth, sometimes to the point of becoming experts in it. But because they think so much, people with 18 and 9 can be quiet and don’t talk to people much. Still, whenever someone else has a problem, you can help and give good advice.
But being such a thinker and dreamer can sometimes make your mind wander and run too far ahead. Sometimes it even leads to worrying far more than there’s reason to, or fearing things that haven’t happened yet. That can make people with 18 and 9 want to withdraw and be alone, working out problems by themselves. They’d also rather other people came to understand them than tell people themselves. So it can be a bit hard to sort out when you have a problem inside.
When you’re uneasy or your mind is wandering, people with 18 and 9 should use their ability to be alone with themselves and look for the truth in those things. Use quiet and meditation to slowly untie the knots in your mind. Use knowledge and experience to solve the problem, rather than instinct and emotion.
With problems outside, we can step away, find a solution and then go back to fix it. Problems inside are no different. We just have to step away from those thoughts, then slowly use mindfulness and meditation to think it through and solve it step by step. It would be amazing to master both the world outside and the one inside yourself.
