Kartenbedeutung
Upright - the card that governs itself in a shaking place. What blocks the way becomes the way.
Reversed - mistaking endurance for self-command. Look at what you have been piling up in silence.
Die Erzählung
Marcus Aurelius was born in 121 and was Roman emperor from 161 to 180.
He followed Stoic philosophy, and his notes to himself survive as the 'Meditations'.
He spent most of his reign at the northern frontier at war.
'The impediment to action advances action' is a widely quoted line from his notes.
