A Journey is featured in the Shadowscapes Tarot Companion Book and was inspired by the 8 of Cups and the Hermit for their themes of journeying, moving on or looking for something that is missing.
This immediately had me thinking about the shamanic practice of soul retrieval, which I’d read about earlier this year. Sandra Ingerman describes soul retrieval the following way:
“It is believed that whenever we suffer an emotional or physical trauma a part of our soul flees the body in order to survive the experience.”
You can imagine how my mind went into overdrive piecing all this information together.
