Just an Ember

From the Waking the Wild Spirit Tarot, Glow/Ten of Fire (Wands); from the Saltwater Reading Cards, Sea Anemones:

All that zooming around, busy-as-a-bee lifestyle finally catches up with us in the Ten of Wands. Passion will either burn itself out or the container that carries it. So now is a time to step back, letting our body and all the mind's many plans rest. Trying to get back in the fast lane at this point will only bring an uninspired effort and a second-rate result. Beautiful Sea Anemones might look colorful and delicate, but they can inflict a mighty sting on anyone or thing that gets too close. They suggest that while we might have trained people to expect an unceasing output from us, we might need to retrain them to give us some space so we can restore our physical and mental capacities. In the words of Anne Lamott, "No" is a complete sentence."
