In this episode, Mel and Alyssa explore the confusing, exhausting agony of the Nine of Swords through the lens of their own struggles with anxiety, CPTSD, psychosis, and mental health more broadly. Join us as we discuss varying imagery and consider how we can find strength and hope in one of the Tarot's most troubled cards.
