a dishonest person

  

strength + the hanged man

Today's tarot cards show someone who placed their trust in a dishonest person, but now they realize this person is deceitful, and they accept that awareness with mature calm.  The turning point was when a situation went sour.  No longer tolerating the traitor, today's cards show that this person knows [1] how to resolve the situation and [2] how to deal with the traitor in an effective yet gentle way.  Perhaps the greatest and most long-term triumph is how this person has started to think for themself. Their strength and self-confidence has increased, which will keep them from returning to duplicitous people and destructive relationships.

Today's wonderfully whimsical cards are from the Dame Darcy Mermaid Tarot.
