Judgement
What happens when that final trumpet blows on Judgement Day?
Complete honesty rules in that ultimate assessment where everything comes to light. As seen from the red cross, there is healing in confession of the truth. The angel from The Lovers card that watched over bad decisions and loss of spiritual lives, now calls the dead to life as they rise with open arms from land and sea into the heavenly light above the white mountains. As naked as the lovers now, if they choose life, they can be clothed in white robes and can eat from the tree of life.
Every time we confess our faults and come clean, we have a taste of the apocalyptic day of judgement pictured here, a taste of the perfect law of liberty that gives life.
Human nature has a tendency to cower, cover itself with fig leaves, pass the buck, and not face the music.
But God has makes a way, provides clothing, and plays a liberating trumpet call to healing and freedom.
