Lent, First Friday, The Washer at the Ford

My subject for my card for today is based on John 1:40-42. Simon is taken to Jesus by his brother. When Jesus sees Simon, he gives him another name. My question for the my card is: What is the name Jesus gives me?

The card that I have drawn is The Washer at the Ford (Death) from the Arthurian Tarot; an extremely fierce card.

Hmmm, the giving of a spiritual name is very significant. I wonder why this one? Seems like a powerful archetype.

Yes it is a powerful archetype. The Washer at the Ford shows a way towards change. She invites people to take a step towards in their lives. This is something I do in my work, and I do it like she does it. It is something I do, but the name is also an encouragement to do this more often. I can be hesitating too. For my personal life it means the same: confronting my fears, step over the water, coming out for myself and what I do and value.

Thank you for your question!
