The Karmic Tail is a crucial element of the Destiny Matrix Chart, representing the unresolved tasks and lessons from past lives that continue to influence your current existence. Similar to the concept of Tikkun in Kabbalah, which means the correction of the soul, your Karmic Tail encapsulates the core purpose and challenges you are meant to address in this lifetime. It is the source of your most significant obstacles, but also the key to your greatest growth and transformation.
Each number in the Karmic Tail corresponds to an Arcana. Together, the collection of these three Arcanas forms your Karmic Tail, representing the specific challenges and lessons you are meant to address in this lifetime.

To sum up, a Karmic Tail is an area of your life that offers you the opportunity for growth. By working to improve it, you invite more love, joy, and fulfillment into your life.
