When the Butcher comes up in a past life, it’s often after we have passed through trying times. This is a quiet period, which should be used to recover, regroup and stabilize. It’s important though, that we always bear in mind the fact that this is only a moment in time. Soon we will need to pick up the tools of life and continue on our life path. It can also show a need for thriftiness, a blow-back to the days when EVERTHING was used, from offal, to bone marrow, with all the remains being made into sausages.
Occasionally, when the Butcher appears, there will be a requirement to bury the hatchet with somebody, or to accept their gestures of friendliness toward us. It’s important that we are reserved both in what we are prepared to offer and what we are prepared to forgive. Truce only marks the cessation of hostilities – a brief pause during which we might negotiate a lasting peace.
The Butchers life was rarely stable There were times of affluence and times of abject poverty. Only in the ‘good times’ could the peasantry afford meat – in times of disease like the back death only those appointed to supply the royal households could survive. Even the affluent noble families suffered leaving those that served them or were indentured to them in the direst of straits.
Drawing the Butcher in a Past Life reading is often a sign that you need to slow down and get some rest. If you are recovering from an illness, allow yourself quiet time to heal. Even if you feel completely healthy, you are risking getting sick if you don’t take a break. Just like the Butcher you need to save for a rainy day. It can’t compare to the plague and other illnesses that our ancestors suffered but the challenges we all meet when we least expect them are very real.
An upright card generally signifies you are on the right track. The butcher was considered a merchant, his status somewhat above that of the peasantry. However there was often a tendency to look down on those he considered beneath him.
