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."

Passing the Cup

From the Tarot of the Cat People, the Queen of Cups; from the Sacred Geometry Oracle, Point:


Genuine compassion is uncomfortable. It’s difficult. It’s maybe even a little bit scary. But this is why it is so important, and why it has the potential to be so powerful. ~Constance Kassor

          The Queen of Cups doesn't judge whether a person is deserving or not before she passes her cup of compassion to them. Her act of empathy and wish for the end of their suffering gives her joy and inner strength regardless of how it is received. She sees beyond outer appearances, knowing that everyone has a deeper value even it they are unaware of it. The Point is the jumping off place for something new; it suggests checking out the diving board we're leaping from. If it is full of unfounded expectations, we might want to reconsider. The starting point is just the place where we plant many seeds, but not all of them are guaranteed to grow.

  1. We cannot just cast the seeds and expect results. The seeds, the intentions need care and tending.
