At
Station Seven Jesus falls the second time. He struggles and stands up to continue again on his way to Golgotha.
The
question for my card is: “How committed am I to my life purpose?” The card that I have drawn is Three of Swords from the Llewellyn Tarot.
I am committed to my life purpose, because I am pinned down to it by the big sword in the middle. It is a three card, belonging to the Empress, the archetype of creativity and growth, so my commitment bears and will bear fruit, although I am sitting in agony here in ragged clothes.
It would go too far to compare my life purpose with the suffering of Jesus, but it is a nice touch that the three swords on the card look like the arrangement of the three crosses on Golgotha. Just as Jesus did not choose his life purpose by himself, I do not do that.
