Ask for Advice

From the Fey Tarot, the Ten of Wands; from the I Misteri della Sibilla, the Ace of Hearts:

          On the plus side, all that inspiration and effort this fey has put forth has paid off with a bumper citrus crop. But the abundance has created more work and more to manage, which seems to be weighing her down mightily. Yet before she gives up, she might take Pema Chodron's advice to start where she is and work openheartedly with life just as it is. No need to pre-plan worry, but taking stock of one's resources can be helpful. One often forgotten resource is the experience of friends and acquaintances. As the Ace of Hearts ('conversation') suggests, we shouldn't let pride keep us from tapping into the knowledge and advice of others. We might just find a new strategy to help us with the workload.

Connections with others loosens the bonds of self-concern and helps us find

our best course of action in the world. ~ Henry Shukman
