Drawing the Prohibitive Tyrant card means examining our tendencies to restrict, control, or prohibit – either ourselves or others. This might mean setting overly strict boundaries or denying ourselves or others the freedom to explore and express. The card urges a balance between necessary boundaries and the freedom to grow and explore.
Upright
Setting boundaries, limits, and preventing harm or chaos by restricting certain actions.
“When have I unduly restricted myself or others?”
Reversed (Shadow)
Over-restriction. An excessive need to control or suppress, stifling growth, freedom, or creativity, often leading to feelings of confinement or rebellion.
“How do I champion and embrace freedom?”
