I mentioned this card in my thoughts on the X of Swords... When I first looked through the deck I immediately saw this as a magnified part of the ten card. The eyes, and the horn of the bull.
It could be something else completely.... I haven't checked the book at all yet for any of the cards.
Anyway to me this is what is is.. a horn and two eyes with maggots feeding of them... a macro shot of the ten of Swords. If this is the case it could maybe be a warning of what can happen if you carry along this path....if you don't stop and advice is not taken... or help not gained you could end up in that very dark and inescapable place of the ten.
It reminds me of addiction, of the rot setting in, it reminds me of Charles Dickens Scrooge, and how the ghosts of the future and past cometo haunt him and warn him of what will happen if he doesn't change his ways.
Then we have the other side.... (the 9 of Swords always has an escape route... ) the Swords are in perfect order, they bring the whole mess together so it looks almost like art... the art of nature? The order of things, the food chain... continuation... whatever the pain of man or beast?
Life goes on anyway whatever? With or without your consent.. wether you decide to catch the bus or fall by the wayside....
Be very keen to see what others feel about this....
