Life, Alchemized

Ascending Your Story's Staircase


Listen Later

The Six of Books from the Necronomicon Tarot Deck invites us to examine the stories that shape our journey and mental well-being. This powerful card shows a glowing book with a winding staircase rising from its pages, illuminated by candles along the way—symbolizing how we navigate life's chapters with guidance from those who came before us.

• Every journey is shaped by stories we carry—some written for us, others we write ourselves
• The open book represents our present moment, while the ascending staircase symbolizes our path forward
• Candles along the way represent moments of clarity, wisdom, and insights that guide us through darkness
• Growth comes through living each page, not knowing the ending in advance
• We draw strength from collective knowledge—therapists, teachers, friends, books, and songs
• Our mental well-being is anchored in recognizing we're part of a larger narrative
• Walking each step and turning each page is an act of courage
• Practice: Write down one story that has carried you and one sentence of your own story you want to carry forward
