Okay, maybe hate is too strong a word.
And you probably think 'but what would be the point?'.
I used to have this friend. And she had a boyfriend.
There was no mistaking that he didn't like me. And I didn't like him.
But we both loved her. So, often, we would all go to places together. Me disliking him. Him disliking me. The two of us loving her.
But on occasion, she would be away for the weekend. What's to do? Of course, I had other friends, but sometimes, they were busy etc. And this was the same for the boyfriend.
So, in short, we would contact each other. And sometimes, we would go out. Me disliking him, kind of. Him disliking me, kind of. And we would have great nights. We were never disappointed by each other, because we never had any expectations. We just got on with it and had a laugh. If the other one ****** off for a bit to talk so someone else, that was fine. But we always had each other to walk home with, talk about the mutual friend/girlfriend and people at college. And maybe we didn't get on so badly, after all.
Recently, I suggested this, in terms of tarot. What about working with the deck you really do not like. All of that 'oohh, ahhh, i love it' is taken out of the equation and you can just get on with what you are supposed to - read. It becomes a tool, like any other.
I bring this up now, because my friend is going on holiday [not the friend I have just been talking about]. We were chatting about her deck and somehow got on to the fact that her husband might find it while she is away. I said 'you could always drop it in here'. She said 'you can use it if you like'.
Ahhhh. It is the Gilded. The one deck I have always had little time for. I had it once, myself. And it was back in the box and bag within about 45 minutes. It made me feel sick and even though I appreciated the marvolous skill of the artist, I just couldn't work with those images.
But it gives me an opportunity to try this experiment out for a week. To see if it still effects me that way. To see if hate can turn to love. To see if emotional disconnection might be an interesting thing in reading.
What do you think? Would you?
