Lighten the Load
From the Tarot of the Radiant Path, the Knight of Pentacles; from Mirrors of the Heart, Freedom:
The Knight of Pentacles is back, but instead observing the fields from his horse, he's on foot doing some quality control. Based on what he is gathering and the gold bars on the table, I'd say he's been successful in his endeavor. Hard work, dependability and attention to detail to pay off, even when things don't go as expected. The only thing that can trip this Knight up is being so tightly tied to the way he wants things to go, he has no flexibility or adaptability when reality takes a detour. But look at that free-spirited bird on the Freedom card. There is no heaviness from grasping or unwillingness that weigh down its wings. Only the lightness of being okay with what is.

balance. it is always about balance isn't it
ReplyDeleteYes it is; wish I didn't have to be way out of balance to realize that sometimes! :)
DeleteMaybe this knight realized he doesn't have to go out and find everything himself in his explorations; he can also read about what others have discovered before him in written journals, freeing up his time to discover even more.
ReplyDeleteThat might be where he got some of his ideas from (reading), and why some of his projects turned out so well. :)
