The small booklet that came with this deck gave an interesting phrase for this card: gathering power. Since this is the Pentacles suit that deals with the material, this power could include money, physical energy or time. All three can be spent unwisely, leaving us with no reserve that might be needed later. Yet the Brownie Wisdom card suggests our resources can be used selfishly or unselfishly as well. Deeds of love come from an open heart, not an open wallet. And that heart won't be concerned with making an impression but with making a difference.
Everywhere in life, the true question is not what we gain, but what we do.
~Thomas Carlyle
That kitty is a bit territorial; holding court at a favorite seating position.
ReplyDeleteIt was interesting that they used a Scottish fold cat for this card, a feline known to be good-natured and affectionate! :D
DeleteOops... Not a Scottish fold cat but an American curl - same personality though!
