Your card :: 44 - Basswood
Correspondences: feminine energy, west, Saturn, element of earth
Basswood is used in the Iroquois tobacco ceremony through the False Face mask. Masks allow us to take on another persona, to see the world through eyes other than our own. This can greatly influence our thinking, as it takes us out of our own minds and prejudices. The problem lies in using the mask as a crutch to escape our own realities. Don the mask to get a new point of view, but don't allow yourself to be lost to it.
Pimp It! card :: 54 - Amethyst
Correspondences: masculine energy, sixth chakra, purple, element of earth
Amethyst dovetails very nicely with Basswood because of its abilities as a stone of healing. When we learn things by donning the mask, we can use this new information to heal our wounds, known or unknown. Amethyst is also used to help stave off addictions, which makes it a perfect stone to have when utilizing the mask's abilities. Allow yourself to ground and purify yourself with Amethyst by carrying a piece of it with you always.
