Today is the Seven of Pentacles…er, Hazards. The scientist has a zombie subject under long-term observation. His work is laying the foundation for a future with the undead population under control. (As an aside, while the zombie looks pretty damn happy, I don’t think I’d be thrilled were I the baby’s mother! But we’re taking artistic license here and besides, I digress.)
Lay the foundations for the future from that solid, happy starting place. Study any “zombies” of your own life to understand how they function, what purposes they serve long term. This is how you get the threat under control.
It’s also useful to remember, today’s zombies were yesterday’s productive members of society. In other words, whatever ghosts of the past you struggle with now, at one time served a purpose for you.
Thank yourself for creating those “zombies”—each and every one served to protect your interests at some point, deaden pain or keep you safe. But once the function is no longer needed, continuing the function is counter productive. Much the same way a needed drug is medicine and an unneeded drug is poison, holding on to old coping mechanism past their prime, keeping the dead parts of ourselves alive, does nothing constructive.
We’re planning here for the FUTURE, not the past. Know your past is always good advice as it allows you to understand and therefore, overcome. Living in the past is not.
Understand what you need to understand, but only with purpose. Once it’s done, put those suckers to rest with the true death.
Do you have a handle on your “zombies?”
