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."

The Breeze

From the Albano-Waite Tarot, the Five of Wands; from the Rumi Cards, 'The Breeze at Dawn:'
          Is it really any surprise when someone has what they think is a great idea, and as soon as they've shared it, another person says he doesn't think things should be done that way? If all we focus on is feeling snubbed, we'll never hear what else might be possible. Debate wants only to win, but Discourse builds a more complete picture through attentive listening and asking questions. The Breeze at Dawn quote suggests there is something good or beautiful right under our noses, but we've totally missed it because it doesn't shout or take center stage. When we drop our agendas and personal strategies, we can allow that breeze to refresh us.

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep!

    as a "woman with fabric" I've watched the masks controversy play out. The Chinese win this argument I think. The 2nd video here is super simple. Treat yourself to something pretty. (((you and yours)))

      That was an excellent idea to use ties. Wish she had given the yardage for the strips.
