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 EstΓ©e 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.
