I might embellish this a tad. Once the Transformation Cards are understood and acted upon, then . . . the self teaching process can be greatly accellerated. It's not enough to know what the Death card means. The remarkable transformation occurs when the card is lived. To know that we are eternal spirit and that death is merely a transformation does not, by itself, accellerate learning. But living fearless, day by day, knowing in each moment that any one of them could be your very last in this body, that kind of thinking naturally loses the fear. You become bold, experiment, act impulsively. And doing these crazy out-there things will bring in a whole new world of experience/catalyst (which will be just the right for you) and cause you to grow. So, yes, understanding is essential. But having the understanding without acting upon it is just potential for acceleration. IMHO.
