Divination In the middle of the path of our life I found myself in a dark forest, having lost the way...” —Dante Alighieri Opening line of the “Divina Commedia” Ah me! How hard a thing it is to say What was this forest savage, rough, and stern, Which in the very thought renews the fear. So bitter is it, death is little more; But of the good to treat, which there I found, Speak will I of the other things I saw there. I have seen you. I do not know how to redirect how I entered you, So full was I of slumber at the moment In which I had abandoned the true way. But after I had reached a mountain’s foot, At that point where the valley terminated, Which had with consternation pierced my heart, Upward I looked, and I beheld its shoulders Vested already with that planet’s rays Which leadeth others right by every road. Then was the fear a little quieted That in my heart’s lake had endured throughout The night, which I had passed so piteously And even as he, who, with distressful breath, Forth issued from the sea upon the shore, Turns to the water perilous and gazes; So did my soul, that still was fleeing onward, Turn itself back to re-behold the pass Which never yet a living person left. After my weary body I had rested, The way resumed I on the desert slope, So that the firm foot ever was the lower. And lo! almost where the ascent began, A panther light and swift exceedingly, Which with a spotted skin was covered o’er!
And never moved from before my face, Nay, rather did impede so much my way, The time was the beginning of the morning, And up the sun was mounting with those stars That with him were, what time the Love Divine. CANTO I. INFERNO, DANTE ALIGHIERI Typically shown as a Jester or The Fool, the harlequin character in 0 “Kismet, Way Of The Sword,” is one of several harlequin’s throughout the deck that shows up when we need them — need them, not necessarily want them. 0 “Kismet, Way Of The Sword,” is a card that symbolizes a soul’s journey powered by belief; fate, destiny. It is a play, a stage, scenes, possibilities, affirmations; a visionary perspective. Mythological messages and metaphysics of the divine wisdom are derived from the carefree harlequin. Kismet’s trunk is always packed for the next adventure and carries a large key because Kismet’s travels and risks have brought large knowledge - a key to making new decisions. A crow flies along for the ride paying his way by revealing omens. The choice is always: “La Folie ou L’Alchimiste : Madness or Alchemist.”
Far away a light suddenly appears from which a stranger comes to help the author. It is the soul of Virgil. —Divine Comedy Card upright keywords: Alchemist, fate, journey, destiny, grandiose achievements, grandiose losses, seeker, traveler, risk taker, wanderer, freedom, independence, sacrifice. Card reversed keywords: Madness, mistakes, missed chances, stability, stifled, bored, regret.
