As we approach the ending of Aquarius season, I wanted to share this post from friend and author who always has a unique perspective on Tarot. This is a link to his post regarding this card and I encourage you to sign up for his community also! I too have been avoiding the 'deception' energy of this card or 'cheater' etc. Yellow I have taught in the past as a connection to the colour of Judas' robe when he betrayed Jesus as a link to a Christian reference - Giotto's The Kiss of Judas (1304-06) pictured below.
However the card is Moon in Aquarius (moon being shadow or about to be enlightened) and Aquarius symbolising the future or visionary. So this to me is always a person taking knowledge and re-purposing it. It's not always 'bad' or untrustworthy. As Grant says, sometimes the knowledge isn't landing where it should or the audience is not ready to receive it.
Thoughts?
