To further understand the energy of the Tarot, we must take into account all
of its aspects, including its numerological perspectives.
Numbers exude vibrations that resonate with all energy, and strike

I personally don't try to predict future. But our subconscious surely knows
better than our rational (and utterly biased) mind the most probable
outcome of some complicated situation if we don't take a different approach
this time. On the other hand, predicting that you will run into someone two
