It is recommended that quick decisions be made and actions should be taken immediately. It is a matter of instinct.
However, at a deeper level of spiritual awareness, it is Read more 3-card readings 09-25-2024
I may sound redundant, but most people still don’t understand it, and I must explain it again.
Esoteric means:
a: designed for or understood by the specially initiated alone,
b: requiring or exhibiting knowledge restricted to a small group – or difficult to understand.
