b'With this episode we arrive at the three cards of Gemini: the 8, 9, and 10 of Swords: dreaded by many and relished by few!\\xa0 Yet the cards of the twins are full of uniquely human dilemmas and insights.\\xa0 The questions they ask, and the challenges they pose, offer answers to the riddle of the human condition. The 8 of Swords, the Lord of Interference or Shortened Force, poses perhaps the biggest one of all.\\xa0 Its associated major arcana are the Wheel of Fortune and the Lovers - in other words, the potent confrontation of fate and free will. We discuss the story of the fall from Eden, as well as famous twins like Castor and Pollux, Cain and Abel.\\xa0 The 8 of Swords corresponds to Jupiter ruling the first decan of Gemini, one of Mercury\'s signs, and we investigate the relationship of Zeus and Hermes, the father with his trickster son, the lords of Gemini and its opposite, Sagittarius.\\xa0 \\xa0We share our nicknames for the card - "the snagged bobbin," "the monkey wrench," "the push and pull".\\xa0 Here, too, are decision paralysis, OCD, the proliferation of systems, a collection of multicultural daggers, and the "knowledge of numbers and arts in which there is no profit."
