Authorship of most of the descriptions of the meaning of the Simbolon cards belongs to Peter Orban, Ingrid Zinnel and Thea Weller, who wrote the manual for them. We willingly hope that the description of the cards will be useful to the reader. The meaning of the Simbolon Oracle cards can be quite intriguing at times.
"Warrior" (Aries/Mars)
Meaning: aggression; ability to achieve; conquest; phallic power; the energy of a new beginning.
Problem: At the root of the problem is anger and aggression that you have not yet recognized or acknowledged. What happened to this person? Why are you hiding your feelings? Perhaps you think that they are out of place, that you are too subtle, and everything should be controlled by the mind. Or maybe you don't want to confront your cowardice.
The Path: You are being asked to act to untie the Gordian knot that is holding you captive. You will not move forward without having the determination to act.
Result: You regain your ability to act. You have the power to be reborn (now). The end of a process heralds a whole new beginning in which you collectstrength, and the warrior in you can start a new round in the game of life.
"Lover" (Taurus/Venus)
Value: value; attraction; possession; sociability; physical attractiveness.
Problem: You are trapped by your own feelings of worthlessness inside. This underestimation of your "I" (the words "I do not love myself") must be allowed to come to the surface, into an adult full life. The Meaning of the Oracle Cards Simbolon only advises you on how to do it as efficiently as possible.
The Path: As far as the esoteric circles extend to "let go" of body and matter, your path ahead involves meditation on Venus. It means to be her friend. Learn to perceive life as a sensory experience and respect the value of your body as a place of residence for the soul, without exaggerating its value and without wasting energy.
Outcome: Your journey led you to gain self-worth. You have learned to judge things realistically and see them for what they are: material things. It is no longer enough to use other people's labels or get their attention as to whether you like them or can be won. As much as esoteric circles spread the “letting go” of body and matter, so much does your path ahead involve meditation on Venus.
"Mediator" (Gemini/Mercury)
Meaning: messenger (of the gods); intelligence; contacts; observer; ease.
Problem: You are unhappy with your position in life at the moment. Do you think it is too boring, banal,superficial. You do not want to identify yourself with the meaning and requirements of Mercury; you have blocked and dispelled a messenger. You have lost your wings, and therefore your lightness. Understanding the meaning of the Simbolon Tarot cards will allow you to bring her back.
The Path: Mercury offers to help you guide your decision. His message says: "Give yourself some time and calmly look at your current situation, speak your true feelings and look at things with a detached and objective attitude."
Outcome: No matter how difficult the road, you can use the "wings of Hermes" to merge the unconscious with the conscious, and then watch yourself from a neutral position, looking back, maybe even with a mischievous smile. And the meaning of the Tarot cards Simbolon says that a way out of any situation is possible, no matter how difficult it is.
"Mother" (Cancer/Moon)
Meaning: femininity; a family; children; the senses; devotion; reception; spiritual past.
Problem: Your feelings - the waters of your soul - are being drunk by the inner child who says no and no, which shuts down your inner being. You are afraid to feel, afraid of your feminine aspect and the impotence that it can create.
The Path: This card explicitly advises you to follow the path of your feelings. Drop the cause for a moment and act intuitively. Look for the child within and let that child live and express itself.
Outcome: your journey will lead you to communicate with your inner child and the ability to live in harmony. Youachieve your own identity, return home to your feelings and your feminine aspect.
"Ego" (Leo/Sun)
Meaning: power; a wish; uniqueness; glory; fertility; creativity; sexy.
Problem: You lack vitality, joy, and a necessary form of cruelty at heart. This means that you cannot use your energies. Perhaps you are trying to compensate for your powerlessness and lack of power through dominant behavior. You have to ask yourself where you can still find life.
The Path: The path ahead involves learning to express yourself, your identity, and your being. You must live the way you want, even if it hurts others. All this may not be as easy as it seems: just live your life!
Outcome: Your journey brings you back to life. You return your heart and soul to things. The description of the Simbolon cards, the decks of which you can buy in any theme store, will help you in solving problems.
"Servant" (Virgo/Mercury)
Meaning: cause; acceptance of reality; rationality; sobriety; spiritual balance.
Problem: Following the description of the Simbolon "Servant" cards, you refuse to accept your current position in life. You like to keep a clean image by blaming others, making you cling to your own predictions. But the finger eventually points to you.
Way: it is useless now, although it is a bitter pill to swallow, you must accept yourself; reduceyour views and adapt to the conditions of life.
Outcome: The result of your learning process is not gold at the end of the rainbow, but a calm, unmaintained order and knowledge through which your soul finds composure and wins its rightful place. Simbolon cards will help you with this, divination on which is becoming more and more popular.
"Partner" (Libra/Venus)
Meaning: other; relations; balance; Symbolon; mirror; "better half".
Problem: You are not yet ready to look into the mirror of another and recognize what you see there as part of yourself. You refuse to understand that the other is only expressing their own "otherness".
The Path: involves exploring the understanding of self in others. It means mutual exchange and offering of your hand to another in reconciliation (or understanding). It is very important to meet someone along the way who will open your eyes.
Result: you rediscovered yourself in the other, found balance and harmony between the inner and outer halves.
"Seducer" (Scorpio/Pluto)
Meaning: Devil, imagination; idea; suicide; obligation; fixing; fanaticism; underworld.
Problem: you become obsessed with an idea; now you are stuck in it. Therefore, you give away part of your soul in the hope of getting something better. You are controlled by the forces of the near world; you are gambling with the Devil. Find out what the idea you are currently obsessed with is. Don't do anything more or less than you need to. The meaning and description of Simbolon cards, cards"Seducer" in particular is worth studying very carefully - it will come in handy during practical work with cards.
Path: You can only reach the light at the end of the tunnel by breaking through the landscape of the underworld and crossing it. Nothing more can be done; and cannot be "improved" (avoiding searches is one of your favorite ideas). Only the words of Virgil can help you now: "Watch closely and continue!". Deciphering the meaning of the Simbolon cards, however, will also not be superfluous.
Outcome: Metamorphosis will take place. The old images must be destroyed, just as Moses destroyed the Golden Calf long ago.
"Preacher" (Sagittarius/Jupiter)
Meaning: priest; missionary; internal therapist; Vera; in sight; philosophical view of the world.
Problem: where is your sympathy, the memory of your own spiritual past? You can impose your opinions and knowledge on others while your own soul remains barren. The meanings of each Symbolon card, cards such as the one you are currently holding in your hand, sometimes change depending on the situation.
Path: remember! That's what this card tells you. Look for an internal therapist (a person, if needed, who acts as a mirror). And above all, repeat the steps. Solutions can only be found in your past.
Outcome: According to the decoding of the Simbolon cards, you will continue to grow, become more open and tolerant.
"Master" (Capricorn/Saturn)
Meaning: legitimacy;duty; fate; old age; death.
Problem: you have become solid, retreated into a shell where no one can communicate with you or reach your soul. It is as if you have retreated to a fortress of loneliness high in the mountains. The fortress is part of you. Look closely and try to take responsibility for building it.
The path: The path to the problem is to learn to take into account the life force. The game is over - now you need to honestly solve your problems. It's all about becoming an "adult".
Result: The result is that now you realize that objective destiny prevails over you, and you accept and acknowledge the power of destiny, which no one can influence.
"Jester" (Aquarius/Uranus)
Meaning: deliverer; freedom; outsider; "real" hero; lone wolf.
Problem: you have forgotten the original meaning of world freedom. You don't understand the real message of The Jester: people should work on every opportunity, every spiritual path, to develop the situation.
The Path: Try to find a spiritual space beyond your current complications. The path to freedom involves nothing more than letting go, letting go of your current problem, even if it seems paradoxical now. Try to get in touch with your own "jester" and learn to laugh at yourself.
Outcome: Conditions led you to obsolete and superseded ways of approaching things.
"Angel" (Pisces/Neptune)
Meaning:truth; divine spark; wisdom; intuition; dream; illusion.
Problem: you've lost your way. Your views of truth are clouded by illusions. You hide from yourself and fall for your tricks. You try to suppress yourself and avoid problems, you evade reality. You are not solving the problem anywhere and you still have a long way to go before you deal with them.
The path: You must take the word "release" literally. Free yourself from the outside world, be more contemplative and look within. Your problem has nothing to do with the world. You can only look at yourself.
Outcome: At first you won't know the end of your journey, as it is invisible to the outside world.
"Misunderstanding" (Cancer/Aries, Moon/Mars)
Meaning: destructive child; rage; "Runaway Johnny"; quiet anger; hatred for the Mother; denial of femininity.
Problem: Your stomach hurts because the little child inside you is throwing a tantrum, viciously punching the depths of your soul and crying to get out. The whole world is "evil", it plots against you. Accept that you are a small child at the moment and are far from being a reasonable adult.
The Path: Years and years of repressed anger want to be released. First of all, you will have to go through the painful labor that brings the deepest part of yourself into the world. Your energies will not begin to flow again unless the pent-up anger is released and experienced. Find your (perhaps therapeutic) conditions thatit becomes possible to freely express one's rage without harming other people.
Result: you can only come to terms with the "little tyrant" inside by growing up and learning to control your emotions.
"Two Faces of Eve" (Cancer/Taurus, Moon/Venus)
Meaning: role conflict; ambivalent feelings; two souls inside one body; wife and lover.
Problem: you face a difficult decision, you cannot decide. The sacrifice is called, one way or another, and this sacrifice is too great. Therefore, you remain indecisive. This is the crux of the matter. Two souls live in the feminine aspect of your chest. Do you want to be a mother or a lover (or a man: have a mother or a lover)? The solution only serves to suppress the problem. The card urges you to acknowledge your indecisiveness. Nothing more! After all, the meaning of the Simbolon cards quite accurately advises what is worth doing and what is not worth doing.
The path: your path should lead you to identify two conflicting and mutually intolerant forms within you. Everyone says, "Take me!".
Outcome: you will eventually find that both aspects deserve a place in your soul; both have their time and place, they feel close to you, but not with each other.
"Articulation" (Cancer/Gemini, Moon/Mercury)
Meaning: Discussing feelings; psychotherapy (psychoanalysis); contact with sensations; connection between mind and "belly".
Problem: You prefer to stay on the surface and ignore your feelings. Worth rememberingthat this meaning of the Symbolon card "Guilt" is in many ways close to the meaning of the "Articulation" card. You do everything not to perceive or express them. But you already know what needs to be done. You need to understand that unexpressed feelings prey on the mind and can cause sickness.
The Path: It's time to express what's going on in your life and what you're feeling. There is no progress without discussion, only apostasy. Find a friend to talk to, or a psychologist if no one is willing to listen. The meaning of the Symbolon cards in this sense is unambiguous.
Result: reason and instinct come into contact with each other. You do not allow yourself to be terrorized by feelings (and terrorize others) and do not suppress them. As the meaning of the Symbolon cards indicates, being true to yourself is the most important thing in life.
