The Ascent from Not
The Mysteries
The time, effort and engagement of beliefs from Key 8, create an inevitable churn of curiosity and wonder. This natural curiosity and wonder opens doors and windows which can only be described as "The Mysteries." These Mysteries are timeless and have eluded humanity since before human beings were recording history in song, artwork and literature.
Ascent IX
The Mysteries
We see a person in the foreground pointing to something toward the center of the card. What is it? Is it a tree? Is it a rock formation? Is this here on Earth? Some other planet? Maybe it’s in a dream? In the top-left corner of this card is the AON symbol for The Mysteries indicating that this trump is part of the Self Well.
The Mysteries are a collection of mysteries that have baffled humanity for millennia and continue to remain unsolved. The Mysteries introduce several impactful concepts:
• The Level Playing Field (Nobody Knows) • The Secret of the Keys • The Insanity Equation • The Great Assumption • Defense Against the Light Arts

Wonder.
Consider the Great Assumption: that someone, somewhere, knows what is going on here. Someone has this all figured out. Right? If they didn’t, wouldn’t we see pandemonium and chaos rippling across global societies? Yes, we would. And perhaps that is why we do.
But there is no need to fear this. Instead, we can use this to our advantage as we make our own determination on who to be and what to make of the World around us. Thus we get to choose which Mysteries to concern ourselves with.
