From the Greenwood Tarot, the Eight of Wands; from the Rune Cards, Laguz:
Potter uses a brightly burning hearth fire to illustrate her Eight of Wands, suggesting effort has been made to supply the fuel and light it. Now the result of that work is being seen and felt. Yet Laguz ('water') shows up to warn that this is not a 'go with the flow' moment. According to the rune poem, this "brine-stallion heeds not the bridle." Confidence can get things moving, but paying attention while adding knowledge and skills along the way can keep things from going belly-up. Time to power-up the Keurig and pop in a coffee pod to stay alert.
Don’t you know about the praying mantis that waved its arms angrily in front of an approaching carriage, unaware that it was incapable of stopping it? Such was the high opinion it had of its talents. —Zhuangzi
total fire and water today. the mantis parable makes me think of what I hope is a mass juggernaut coming.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed. If he is ousted, there will be dancing rather than rioting in the streets.
