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."

Super Power

From the Tarot of the Cat People, the Queen of Wands; from the Sacred Geometry Oracle, Tetrahedron:

Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. ― Neil deGrasse Tyson

          This passionate queen who can think on her feet has a super power - encouraging other people. She understands that words of support can give someone the self-confidence and determination to work hard until their goal is reached. The Tetrahedron is a four-sided pyramid made of triangles. Because its stiff edges make it rigid, it is often used in truss-like frames that span large areas with few interior supports. Thus the tetrahedron symbolizes the ability to make things more stable and secure. The Queen of Wands knows that words should be used with discernment as they can encourage someone's potential or be critical and destroy it. As Abraham Joshua Heschel warned, "Speech has power. Words do not fade. What starts out as a sound, ends in a deed."
