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."

The Precious Thing

From the World Spirit Tarot, the Nine of Cups; from the Mystic Glyphs, Antelope:


          The Nine of Cups speaks of contentment found through one's own endeavors. Though emotionally fulfilling, the satisfaction it brings is found only in the moment. Just as the Antelope is known for its leaps and evasive maneuvers, so our happiness will return to neutral soon enough. Rather than worrying about our pink cloud floating back to earth, we can enjoy every second as it unfolds.

Time isn’t precious at all, because it is an illusion. What you perceive as precious is not time but the one point that is out of time: the Now. That is precious indeed. The more you are focused on time — past and future — the more you miss the Now, the most precious thing there is. ― Eckhart Tolle
