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."

Be Brave

From the Tyldwick Tarot, the Six of Swords; from the Antiquarian Lenormand, the 'Sun:'
I was an adult before I realized poster-like maps of the world were inaccurate. It's problematic to transfer a three-dimensional curved surface to a flat one; most flat maps stretch what is in the northern and southern parts of the globe to fill in gaps to make a more elegant looking, usable map. The Six of Swords is the moment when we realize our thinking has been faulty, that perhaps we've accepted ideas that were skewed towards a certain 'truth.' We then begin the process of leaving behind those inaccuracies. The Sun card from the Lenormand deck represents energy, illumination, and achievement. We may not have the full 360-degree perspective yet, but we're moving in the right direction.
Be brave and take accountability for your thoughts and beliefs.

  2. That Six of Swords will have you sailing off the side of the World. No wonder many believe (and their are still a few) that believe the World is flat.

    1. I still have a hard time believing that there are people who think the Moon landing and the Holocaust were hoaxes.
