The Upright Readings

dull outlook, patience, animal lover, trustworthiness, hard work, productivity, routine, conservatism.

You have a sluggish outlook on life. Sluggish here means quiet, reticent. There is a special quality in you, that is patience. You are a good human being who is an animal lover. Just like 'Kichak', the commander of the Matsya kingdom. 'Kichak' was a very brave warrior.

The quality that is hard to find in this world is that you are a trustworthy person. You know how to work hard. Due to this, your productivity has increased.

Your routine is accurate. You do not believe in conservatism yourself, but it is also your belief that some things do not change with time.

The Reverse Readings

carelessness, standstill, irresponsible, Self-discipline, boredom, feeling ‘stuck’, perfectionism.

Do not be careless in your work. Otherwise, your every work will come to a standstill. You may find irresponsible people, which will cause damage. Self-discipline is very important. You are likely to get bored with life. The reason is, the wrong people surround you. You may feel like a prisoner from everywhere. You might start to feel 'stuck'. Too much of anything is harmful; perfectionism has to stop for a few days.

Ancient Indian Tarot card study points:

An Indian knight in his armature on the horse is standing at the end of the mountain, planning to conquer.

He is Kichak, the commander-in-chief of Matsya Kingdom. He was a very brave fighter. Kichak is popular in Mahabharata not for his life but his death, as Kichak vadh. He was killed by Bhima because he was harassing Draupadi when Pandavas were in disguise as part of their exile. Kichak's sister, Sudeshna, had a beautiful daughter, Uttara. Uttara later married Arjuna's son Abhimanyu.

(Detail story of Kichak Vadh i.e. the killings.)

Draupadi, the wife of the Pandavas, was disguised as a Sairandhri (female servant) in King Virata's palace for one year. Kichak once saw Sairandhri and madly desired to enjoy her beauty, but she refused. Kichak mentioned his lust for Sairandhri to Queen Sudeshna and requested to send her to serve wine for him. While Sairandhri was serving the wine, Kichak tried to hug her. Sairandhri cried and pushed him down. Draupadi, alias Sairandhri, was then pursued by Kichak towards the throne, where she was seized by hair, brought down to the ground, and kicked in a full assembly of courtiers, including her disguised husband Yudhishthira (who was Kanaka at that time) and King Virata neither Yudhishthira could react because Kichak was a very mighty person within the kingdom. Bhima was then commanded to take revenge by Yudhishthira.

Seething from the public insult, Draupadi consulted Yudhishthira's brother, Bhima, at night, who was disguised as the royal cook. Together, they hatched a plan wherein Draupadi, who disguised as Sairandhri, would pretend to seduce Kichak to arrange a rendezvous in the dance hall in the dark.

When Kichak arrived in the dance hall, he saw, much to his pleasure, Sairandhri. In the dark, he could not recognize Bhima, pretending to Sairandhri. As Kichak forwarded, the person who he thought to be Sairandhri revealed himself as Bhima, and then Bhima killed Kichak with his bare hands.

Sairandhri then alarmed the keepers to behold lifeless Kichak, slain by her husband's Gandharva. Kichak's relatives addressed the King, 'Since it was for her sake that Kichak lost his life, let her be cremated alongside him'. Then Kichak's people turned upon her, seizing Sairandhri violently, binding and placing her upon the bier, as they set out towards the cemetery.

Sairandhri, while being carried, cried out for protection from her husband, Yudhishthira. Bhima, without losing a moment, quickly changed his attire, hurried out of the palace in the fastest way possible, scaling a wall via a tree. Bhima reached the funeral pyre, uprooted a big tree, and rushed from down the ground. And set Draupadi free everyone ran towards the city. The citizens inform King Virata. Virata filled with fear, welcomes Draupadi.
