Deck Used: Wyzard of Odd Tarot
Request: how do I unstick myself?
Card: 9 of Wands.
Answer: By examining where and how you got stuck in the first place. At first, the answer appears to be the use of overwhelming force to pop you out of the stuck place and back onto the road you were traveling. But as many a mud-stricken traveler will tell you, that’s really just a good way to dig yourself even deeper. What was it that made you stop in the first place? You may have the raw strength to pull yourself out, but do you need help coordinating your actions so you’re pulling in the right direction? Did you need help with something, but that help never showed so you stalled until staying put felt easier than trying without help? What is it about where you are stuck that is quietly appealing? Is there a wound that needs tending but your pride won’t let you admit there is a problem there? Why here? Why now? Examine that, and it will reveal what needs to be resolved before you can continue on again.
Bryan Lahr’s Wyzard of Odd tarot deck is a work of art featuring carefully crafted images of literal smoke and mirrors. The deck is based on the Thoth and the margins are lined with correspondences from various esoteric practices. The slightly oversize deck works well for contemplation as the images fold onto themselves and unfolds upon the viewer. In following with the tradition set by the Thoth deck, Wyzard Princes are equivalent to Waite’s Knights, and Wyzard Knights are equivalent to Waite’s Kings.
