Thanks for that uplifting interpretation.
Yes, some illusions yet to be peeled away. I too have forgotten about the Mythic Tarot deck. Gonna have to get my book out and refresh. One epiphany I recall about the study of Neptune and our dualistic vs. non dualistic reality is that Neptune is not the illusion itself but is the veil of our illusions. I think our illusions are more tied to Saturn and a dualistic physical/senses world of perception. So when we had that long Neptune/Saturn transit the last couple of years it was the Saturnian reality which took the beating when Neptune's veil came down. And in my own spiritual explorations I have felt the cleaning out I've been doing has put me on the cusp of some important revelations. Interesting that the apocalyptic books of the Bible, what some call the "end times" are called Revelations. Perhaps the end OF time might be more accurate. The revelations are what is left when we get stripped of our illusions, our pain, our guilt, our attachments, etc. and open our hearts to a new kind of seeing.

And Pluto's passage through Cap will reveal our true soul's purpose within the emerging truth found in the destruction of those Saturnian (Cap) trappings.

I'm wondering if the Male Swordsman at the center represents an aspect of myself (masculine mind/intellect) or a projected form...a male person in my life, air sign type. To me, that and the swords above and below (the conscious and subconsious) are of the mind and the tricks the mind will play to avoid losing its sway over my life and dualistic reality.
The trickster Magician crossing that male figure sort of reinforces that for me.

Thanks for that interpretation...it's got me taking the reading to a deeper level.
