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."

Hiding in the Fabric

From the Gaian Tarot, the Child of Earth (Page of Pentacles); from the Goddess Oracle, Nut:
          The Page of Pentacles is the Student of Earth; there will always be something to draw his attention and make him curious, longing to know what, how, and why. Learning about his environment feeds his insatiable urge, and though it may be briefly satiated, there will always be more to discover and understand. From bugs to the Big Bang, it's all fascinating. Yet Nut, the Egyptian goddess of the skies and heavens, brings with her the keyword Mystery. As Anais Nin wrote, "The possession of knowledge does not kill the sense of wonder and mystery. There is always more mystery." Mystery and discovery are a joy often forgotten. Perhaps today I will carry Sue Monk Kidd's words with me: "there is nothing but mystery in the world, how it hides behind the fabric of our poor, browbeat days, shining brightly, and we don't even know it."
