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."

Prudent Course

From the Victorian Fairy Tarot, the Herald (Page) of Autumn (Pentacles); from the Haindl Rune Oracle, Dag/Dagaz:
... our aliveness depends on our ability to sustain wonder. — Mark Nepo

          The Heralds are the portals from one season to the next; they are a good analogy for the doors that knowledge and instruction can open. Perhaps none of the four Heralds/Pages is more enthusiastic about applied knowledge as this one. Dag/Dagaz represents the darkness turning to dawn and confusion being transformed into insight. But as the Herald/Page would tell us, knowing doesn't change things nearly as much as using that new knowledge.

The prudent course is to make an investment in learning, testing and understanding, determine how the new concepts compare to how you now operate and thoughtfully determine how they apply to what you want to achieve in the future. — Dee Hock
