I'm new to Aeclectic, and apologize if this is the wrong forum for this question:
I'm new to the Thoth, and just got my first Thoth deck and a Liber T deck. I notice a lot of severed heads in the Liber T minors illustrations. The Liber T 5 and 7 of swords, 2 of spheres, and 5 of cups all show decapitations, but especially the 2 of spheres shows a large figure carrying his severed head under his arm. Is there some symbolic significance to severed heads?
I know the Queen of Swords in the Thoth also carries a severed head, and I was able to accept that even knowing as little as I do about the meaning of the card, but I find the sheer number of decapitations in the Liber T puts me off, and I might have to give up the deck unless someone can shed some light on this for me. Anyone?
