This 24" x 36" poster maps out the Major Arcana and offers interpretations for each row, column, and card. The interpretations offered are for seeing these 22 cards as a map of the archetypical mind, and a path to enlightenment.

Here’s a link where you can see the whole print.

The columns are organized into groups and are numbered and labeled as follows:

THE CHALLENGED SELF
1. POWER / CONFRONTATION / MATRIX
2. SPIRIT / REFLECTION / POTENTIATOR

THE CENTRAL TRANSFORMATION
3. NATURE / CATALYST
4. HUMANITY / EXPERIENCE
5. DIVINITY / SIGNIFICATOR

THE ELEVATED SELF
6. RELEASE /
THE TRANSFORMATION
7. THE WHOLE BEING / THE GREAT WAY

 

The rows are labeled as follows:

Consciousness/Mind

The outer world: representing both the journey from childhood to functional adulthood, and the path from chaos to human society.

Subconscious/Body

The inner world: representing a personal journey of self-discovery, of knowing why we act and, through that, finding meaning, spiritual awakening, and harmony.

Superconscious/Spirit

The universal world: representing a journey beyond individual consciousness to enlightenment and a union with the oneness of all life, all time, everywhere.

 

So I offer that we end up with a grid and the meaning of columns repeats as move down the grid. For example, the Challenged Self that starts in Consciousness, repeats in the Subconscious, and again in the Superconscious. And so it is goes, I offer, for all of the columns.
