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."

Clean Slate

From the Hoi Polloi Tarot, the World; from the I Ching Pack, Hexagram 58:


We've all found ourselves at some stage of completion - the graduate, the couple celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary, or the retiree. It is a time to celebrate but also a time to reflect and consider what has been learned before we move on to the next stage. Hexagram 58 is formed by the symbols "lake over lake," which imply depth and clarity. Its keywords range from Joy to Truth, both of which fit someone with a deep understanding and a wide perception. Standing at the World's gateway, it's a good time to drop any beliefs or ideas we've been dragging behind us that lack usefulness and only distract us from what's important. Step out with a clean slate.

I love the big fresh starts, the clean slates like birthdays and new years, but I also really like the idea that we can get up every morning and start over. ~Kristin Armstrong
