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."

Spiritual Abundance

From the Roots of Asia Tarot, the Six of Pentacles; from the Mah Jongg Oracle, Mushroom:

          The RoA booklet calls the Six of Pentacles 'Spiritual Abundance.' If we feel we have all that we need and more, then it is much easier to be generous. Yet this is actually a state of mind, cultivated by gratitude, not possessions. We may have enough resources to be comfortable, but if this is unacknowledged, we're unlikely to want to share anything. The Mushroom was seen as something bizarre and out of the ordinary, so it represented being unconventional. In the atmosphere of today's world, we've been led to believe people should be worthy before we dole out our time, money or energy. But maybe it's time to take a nontraditional tack when it comes to being generous.

This is a day to practice compassion, opening the heart.
This is a day to practice kindness, benefiting all.
This is a day to practice attention, welcoming what comes.

  1. I am going to be humorous for a moment. You can have all my mushrooms if you want them. Fungi, no way!
