Past life

What experience, by the method’s tradition, the arcanum of the karmic tail carries from the past and which lesson it asks to close.

Texts updated 2026-09-30.

1 · The Magician

From past incarnations you have brought the experience of a person who was afraid to assert their will and claim themselves, causing many promising ideas to remain unrealised. In a previous life you likely often doubted your talents and postponed important steps. When balanced – you recognise your ability to turn any ideas into real actions and boldly embark on new ventures. When imbalanced – you fall into empty promises and endless talk about plans that never lead to practical work. What helps – belief in your own authority, focusing on a single concrete task and the habit of immediately converting thoughts into results.

2 · The High Priestess

Past experience is linked to situations where you had to conceal true knowledge, suppress intuition or remain silent when you needed to assert your position. In a previous incarnation the accumulated wisdom may have remained unused due to excessive caution and fear of appearing too conspicuous. In the resource — you are able to maintain inner calm, finely sense hidden motives of others and rely on reliable inner knowledge. In the imbalance — you retreat into deafening passivity, withdraw into yourself and replace deep wisdom with mere inaction. What helps — trust in your own intuition, periods of solitude for restoring energy and a careful attitude towards others’ secrets.

3 · The Empress

In past lives you may have faced resource scarcity, material constraints or rigid limits that suppressed any expression of abundance. Likely you have accumulated many fears about safety, stability and the ability to allocate blessings wisely around you. In resource — you create a space where everything develops harmoniously, share care generously and surround yourself with comfort. In imbalance — you slip into excessive control over loved ones, suffocating overprotection or attempts to silence inner emptiness with material purchases. What helps — developing your creative side, caring for your own body and gratefully accepting the gifts of fate.

4 · The Emperor

The karmic baggage of this arcanum often points to power issues, difficulty establishing personal boundaries and resistance to any authority. In the past you may have either strictly obeyed harsh external rules or taken on an overwhelming responsibility for a group. In resource — you can create clear structures, keep your word and become a reliable support for those around you. In imbalance — you display excessive despotism, turn relationships into a set of rigid laws and try to control every move of others. What helps — developing mental flexibility, delegating authority and recognising others' right to err.

5 · The Hierophant

From past incarnations you have brought a load of rigid dogmas, blind adherence to outdated rules or conflicts with the traditions of your surroundings. Likely you have had to operate within narrow limits where any deviation from accepted order was met with condemnation. In resource — you treat the experience accumulated over generations with care, can structure information and pass knowledge on. In imbalance — you become a moraliser who demands unquestioning obedience to the letter of the law and loses the essence behind the rules.
