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."

Work and Wonder Time

From the Songs for the Journey Home Tarot, the Eight of Earth (Pentacles); from the Raven Cards, 'Grasp It:'

          These young folks are honing their various skills and talents, from designing and baking to painting and exercising. Some of us make our way in the world by becoming Jacks and Janes of all trades while others seek a specific career. It consumes us in our younger and middle years, but later we may find that while having money in the bank gives us security, it doesn't necessarily bring us joy. The Raven Card implies that we each have something innate that does, whether it's creating or enjoying the creation. It's usually different for everyone, but worthwhile for us to discover and spend time doing.

The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.     
~Bertrand Russell

    I am on the search for my purpose. Something different in these latter years.
