But this is wonderful. And . . .

Oh, MeeWah, you see so clearly. While I was just stumbling around it has helped so much to have such terrific guides come along and shed a little light on the path.
Since I seem to be doing a lot of quoting here, let me add this fragment from what Jessica Godino said about the meaning of the Six of Swords: " . . . a passage from one level of understanding to another . . ."
I truly believe that is what I was offered here, and I'll bet'cha others who may read this will find it helpful also.
