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."

Steady On

From the Slow Tarot, the Three of Wands; from the ROAR Oracle, Estee Lauder:


Bryant describes the Threes as representing "the potential of unrelated forces coming together to create something new." In the case of the Three of Wands, it would be a cooperative effort that results in development and expansion. Managing a collaborative effort takes energy, attention, communication, and the ability to make sure everyone feels heard and appreciated. Though people might assume Estee Lauder had a privileged upbringing, she was actually born to a working-class, Jewish immigrant family. With the help of her uncle, a chemist, she began a home-based business of creating face creams and marketing them to friends and local salons. After years of selling products on her own, she officially formed Estée Lauder Cosmetics Inc. in 1946, eventually becoming the richest self-made woman in the world. She stated, "I've always believed that success comes from not letting your eyes stray from that target. Anyone who wants to achieve a dream must stay strong, focused and steady." Most often success comes through steady effort rather than attachment to constant excitement and immediate recognition.
