Suffering - The Nidana Cards (Patreon)

A boy, lost and cold, with only a thin white blanket to protect him from the desert night. He is so preoccupied with his distress that he does not notice what seems too good to be true: an exit.

Divinatory meaning

Dissatisfaction, discontent, restlessness, unease – but of a kind that successfully impels us to change our situation. Forbearance. Stoicism. Bravery and heroism.

Reversed

Indulgence in self-destructive behaviour. Injury and pain. Hypochondria. Self-pity. Pointless martyrdom. Directionless escapism.
