QUESTIONS OF FAITH · TEN COMPANIONSDiscernment, sovereignty & choice
Protect the reader’s voice while examining claims and interpretations.
Every person is sovereign in Babylon’s teaching. A symbol, intuition, planetary position or another person’s confidence does not establish private thoughts, a diagnosis or someone’s spiritual rank. Tarot is directed inward: never use it to read another person’s energy, even by permission. Shared learning leaves each participant free to describe their own experience. Claims can be checked, boundaries can be stated and disagreement can remain compatible with respect.
Discernment, sovereignty & choiceBabylon keeps responsibility for a chosen response with the person. A letter, planet or symbolic pattern does not compel one moral action or remove another person’s right to choose.
