Cards

Something extreme, which I’ve only told Benjamin and a close female friend, happened that will change the course of my life. But I wanted to talk about something else. The Iran War proves what I’ve often thought.

In Spain they don’t use the English deck but the Spanish deck, a set of forty-eight or forty cards (on the left we see only four of the cards), which I played with as a child with my family.

As an adult, I tried to find a symbolism for it, since the Spanish-suited playing cards are related to the Tarot. The coins obviously reflect money, the swords war, the cups art and the wands wisdom (in this last interpretation, I’m referring to the Heart Tree and everything I’ve said on this blog about the symbol of Bran the Broken and its connection to Weirwood trees).

Even before the Iran War I had told myself in countless soliloquies that the sword could triumph over gold. And now we see that Iran is winning the war even against the multi-billion-dollar Sunni Gulf nations and the wealthy Jews of Israel and the American government. The US, overflowing with gold, was defeated by the swords of Vietnam, Afghanistan and is now being expelled from Iraq.

This means that, at least in theory, we could defeat ZOG, the American-Zionist system if we had the determination of the Germans of the last century (though without committing the blunder of invading the Soviet Union: a blunder that reminds me of what the Israelis and Americans did on the 28th of last month).

The Iranians prepared for this war for more than twenty years, and as Colonel Douglas MacGregor recently said in response to the nonsense spouted by Fox News, this is not an asymmetric war; rather, the US is using 20th-century military methods. In contrast, both the Russians in Ukraine and the Iranians with neighbouring countries are using missiles and drones: 21st-century warfare.

If Iran wins—that is, if the swords once again triumph over the gold coins—the petrodollar will collapse, and the rest will follow: a geopolitical shift as dramatic as what happened to me personally last week.
