From the Light Seer's Tarot, the Knight of Wands; from the Tapestry Oracle, Pride:
If you're looking for a small, low-key get-together, you might not want to invite the Knight of Wands. When she's not in search of her next exciting adventure, she's ready to party and cut loose. But if you want to shake things up, send her an invitation. Most everyone will enjoy themselves because her enthusiasm is contagious, and she doesn't leave anyone out of the fun. Just don't look for her to help with the clean-up afterwards. Pride depicts a warrior who has lost his lower leg. Eifler suggests that when we experience any sort of physical or emotional trauma, it can make us hypervigilant with a determination not to ask for the help of others. The Knight of Wands would applaud his bravery but would also tell him that being an island unto oneself can be lonely and joyless. She'd advise him to take a risk, join the party, and meet someone new and different from himself.
The trouble is, once you filter out everybody that doesn't agree with you, all that's left is maybe this one retired surfer guy living in Idaho. ― Barbara Kingsolver
do you still drum?
ReplyDeleteThere haven't been any drum circles here in years, and the arthritis in my hands and wrist keep me from drumming much on my own. But on rare occasions I still put on some Celtic music and drum along on my bodhran for the joy of it. :)
DeleteSure the knight is noisy and can be a real pain, but it was fun while it lasted.
ReplyDeleteAnd there seems to be a short supply of fun these days.
