From the Tyldwick Tarot, the Sun; from the Antiquarian Lenormand, the Stars:
On a table is a statue of Surya, sun god and chief of the planets in Hindu astrology. He is pulled by seven horses, a symbol of the seven chakras, and thus is associated with healing. Surya represents the wholeness and balance that comes after the Fool has gained wisdom and been made aware of his assets and flaws, no longer believing he is the center of the universe. Sunflowers have been used to clean toxins from the soil and water at sites such as Chernobyl. The illumination and clarity the Sun brings helps us feel renewed, energized and with a joy for life. The Lenormand Stars card represents progress toward one's goals. It's amazing how much more easily we can navigate life when we see it as it is rather than as we want it to be.
When people will not weed their own minds, they are apt to be overrun by nettles.
― Horace Walpole
when all you have is nettles, they apparently don't look like weeds.
ReplyDeleteYou know me, I'm a total believer in sunflowers, but thinking about the roundtable that proposed the sunflowers for chernobyl brought my first good laugh of the day.
They actually do clean toxins from these sites (and have been used successfully in other places). I guess desperation can create an open mind.
