I use tarot and oracle cards as tools for reflection and contemplation. Rather than divining the future, they are a way for me to look more deeply at the "now."

Tick Tock

From the Victoria Regina Tarot, the Two of Coins; from the Universe Cards, "Galaxy Formation:"
          Ovenall describes the fascination the Victorians had with the new while trying to be respectful of tradition - a delicate balance. The fellow in the card has one clock firmly in hand but seems to be losing his grip on the other. Studies of multi-taskers found people aren't able to attend to multiple tasks as competently as they think they can. In my case, there's been a lack of sleep for the past several weeks, setting up a disaster waiting to happen. Just last night I realized I let my cat's antibiotic run out (he has FIP). Thankfully the vet is open today, and I can get a refill. I hate feeling so scattered and spaced out - which leads into the next card. Galaxy Formation has to do with organization, but not the kind of structure imposed from the outside. It suggests examining myself, looking at patterns that need changing and areas that need tending and nurturing. Perhaps delegating some duties and setting aside those that aren't really important might be the sanest strategy for now.

    1. My hot tsunamis (hot flashes) have returned and seem to be able to power through whatever I take - herbal or medicinal. I'm hoping that as the weather cools, they'll be fewer and less intense.
