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."

Under Construction

From the Gill Tarot, the Prince (Knight) of Discs; from The Circle deck, Responsibility:


          The Prince of Discs represents Air in the element of Earth, making him a person who is thoughtful and innovative as well as dependable and industrious. While his earthy side might make him slower than some, it allows his contemplative side to be aware of necessary steps to be taken rather than skipped over. Thorough in his work, he takes things one step or stage at a time. Responsibility suggests being aware of one's own strengths and weaknesses and having the integrity not to pretend otherwise. The University of Zurich suggested five types of strengths:

  1. Interpersonal - leadership, teamwork, kindness, forgiveness fairness
  2. Intellectual - love of learning, creativity, curiosity, open-mindedness
  3. Emotional - zest, hope, courage
  4. Restraint - prudence, self-regulation, honesty
  5. Spiritual - faith, gratitude, appreciation of beauty
Hopefully this Prince will realize there's more under construction than just that wheel.
