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."

Wonderful World

This week I'll be using the Tyldwick Tarot, created and self-published by Neil Lovell. I'll also be using the Antiquarian Lenormand, created and self-published by Maree Bento. Today's draws are the Three of Coins and the Moon:


          Ask any gardener about roses and they will admit that they are not the easiest flowers to grow. They require much attention (pruning, pest control, etc.) and a thick pair of gloves for protection from thorns. The three stars on the stone wall above these roses suggest their caretaker has knowledge, skills and a willingness to work diligently. Such a person does not just desire beautiful landscaping in order to impress the neighbors. One of the Moon's meanings is a mutual admiration and shared love. The master gardener looks upon the soil and plants as beloved companions. It's a relationship in which both nurture and benefit the other in different ways. Service instead of self-centeredness could create something as sweet as a rose's smell; in the words of Sam Cooke, "What a wonderful world this would be." 

Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.

  1. I never was a 'rose girl, carnations for me. Still I appreciate their beauty. Their rosy aroma is supposed to help balance our ph levels. We all need to take a deep inhale and bring ourselves into balance.
