XIII. The Card with No Name

“If you push yourself to go faster, you will catch me. If you slow down, I shall catch you. If you
walk peacefully, I shall accompany you. If you start to turn around, I shall dance with you. Since
our meeting is inevitable, face me at once! I am your inner shadow, the one laughing behind
the illusion you call reality. Patient as a spider, set like a jewel in each of your moments, I am
the one with whom you share your life – or if you refuse this, you will not be living in the truth.
You can flee to the other side of the world; I shall always be by your side.”

Do you remember my Hannibal Tarot Deck project? Here’s Hannibal Lecter in The Card with No Name, erroneously called Death. After the emptying and deepening work achieved by The Hanged Man, this card invites a radical purification of the past, a revolution that takes place in the nonverbal or preverbal depths of the individual, in the shadow of that black terrain, that unknown region of ourselves, from which emerges, like a matrix, our humanity.
