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."

Bigger Picture

From the Ferret Tarot, the Queen of Wands; from Nature's Wisdom Oracle, 'Bat:'
          An orchestra conductor is a fitting role for this Queen. She has a knack for seeing the talents in others, encouraging them to hone their gifts, and then gathering everyone together to create something beautiful or beneficial. Some may say she just likes being in charge and waving that baton around, but she actually has the vision and ability to create a cohesive whole. She is like the Bat, often spoken badly of, but truly with a good side. Bats eat hundreds of mosquitoes and other insects each night, as well as help pollinate plants. Both the person and the animal can be seen in a more favorable light if the focus is not on nit-picking their qualities but looking from a larger frame of reference.

All that is made seems planless to the darkened mind,
because there are more plans than it looked for. ― C.S. Lewis

  1. Honcho brought in a bat from the dack a few days ago, it must have flown in over the top of the catio wire, then the wire must have confused his radar too much to get back out. It was fine and released to safety, and we celebrated a victory of nature. Honcho will probably never be the same...his first and only catch and no trophy!
