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."

Experience is a Friend

From the Cosmic Cycles Tarot, the Page of Wands; from the Magic Neko Deck, the King of Hearts:

You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.
― Richard Branson

          The Page of Wands is full of curiosity paired with an adventuresome spirit. She learns by doing, even when that doing falls outside of etiquette or the typical norm. She will likely wind up with plenty of scrapes, stitches, and maybe even a broken bone, but nothing will dampen her desire to explore and learn. Experience is her friend even though it can be a hard taskmaster at times. Yet the King of Hearts suggests that she add another tool to her knapsack - intuition. Even a cat knows that while curiosity can lead to discovery, it always is a good idea to follow one's inner nudges as well. Sometimes the best road to travel is the one our intuition directs us toward.
