Before you can pick up after yourself, you need to put down some of what you are already carrying. Not everything that has been handed to you is yours to bear. Just as not all “gifts” are of benefit to the receiver, not all tasks assigned to you were yours to complete in the first place. It is not your place in life to make corrections for those who never had any intent of doing things right in the first place. Set down what was never yours so you can focus on fixing yourself, for yourself.


The Bosch Tarot is a series of collages based on the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch. Using a unique set of meanings that doesn’t always aligns with Waite, it will sometimes read direct, and sometimes read like a koan. It is a good deck for introspection and examination of internal motives. The Bosch Tarot is presented by Atanas A. Atanassov and ©Lo Scarabeo.
