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."

Let's Get Crackin'

From the Wayfarer Tarot, the King of Fire (Wands); from the Curious Oracle, Green Woman (Nature):

          "Let's get crackin', this is happening, and no one's napping until we're done." This King, standing on a hill as he supervises his latest project, likes to create and construct. His favorite part of the process is seeing the completion of his vision - he believes in having a timetable and doesn't approve of slackers. He'd heartily agree with Pearl Buck: "I don’t wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that." Yet the Green Woman card is an admonition for moving at the pace of Nature. Humans aren't machines and projects rarely get finished without a few snafus along the way. People need time for rest and play to be productive, which will also give their minds a chance to unwind and come up with some solutions without being hampered by stress.

    Green Women, a different spin on the normal Green Man. I think women just naturally get more done. Might be from the the stage of Hunter-Gatherers. Men went hunting and disappeared for hours, days, weeks. Women naturally had to keep things going.

      And women tend to be a little more flexible and adaptable sometimes. :)
