Chamber of Transformation

You’re not who you once were and also not who you’ll soon be. Now, now, and now, you’re not the same person. Embracing this takes courage. Embracing this requires faith. We’re all alchemists, shape‐shifters; transformation is our natural state. But if we’re seeking a constant state of perfection, we’ll hold ourselves back from the most glorious transformation to come!

True transformation isn’t pretty, but it is beautiful. It’s glorious and messy as we expand and contract, expand and contract. Rebirth isn’t possible without death first. And it’s while we’re in the fertile void of our becoming that we discover that what feels like a tomb is actually a womb, and in this moment we realize that we’re birthing ourselves anew.

The Chamber of Transformation card appears when a significant period of initiation is occurring. Initiation isn’t always smooth, but it is significant. And when you pass through the birth canal of the transformation, you’ll be reborn differently than before. It’s a crucible in which we’re reborn anew right in the middle of our lives.

This card can appear in a spread to tell us that our soul is scheduled to go deeper than before. It can be a beacon of light, inviting you to keep hold of the grace that’s carrying you through. Or it can be an indication that, finally, you’ve been reborn anew.
