The Casualty

You may feel shut out—financially, emotionally, or spiritually. The Casualty reflects hardship, but also the narratives we create around suffering. You might believe you’re alone, overlooked, or not worth helping. But the truth is, support may be closer than you think. This card urges you to stop internalising struggle as identity. Yes, this is a difficult chapter, but it’s not the whole story. Instead of bracing yourself to suffer in silence, take a breath. What help are you resisting? Where are you still carrying shame that doesn’t belong to you? You are not defined by your hardest moments. It’s time to shift the lens—from exclusion to possibility. Ask for help. Look up. The light isn’t as far off as it seems.
