Among these intriguing cards is the Lotus, symbolizing purity and spiritual enlightenment. Its delicate petals transport us to a realm where seekers embarked on transformative journeys towards self-discovery. The Armor Shirt card evokes images of strength and protection, reminding us that these initiations were not for the faint-hearted. Warriors would don this sacred garment as they prepared themselves for battle against their inner demons. Ritual Objects depicted on another card hint at ceremonial practices shrouded in mystery. Each item holds significance within its intricate design - an invitation to unravel their hidden meanings. Offerings of Food play a crucial role in these initiation ceremonies, representing nourishment for both body and soul. As we gaze upon this card, we can almost taste the flavors of devotion offered by devotees seeking divine blessings. A Figure Seated on Lotus captures our attention with its serene presence. This ethereal being invites us to embrace stillness and find solace amidst life's chaos – a timeless lesson passed down through generations. In another scene, we witness the Presentation of Offerings – an act filled with reverence and gratitude towards higher powers.
