From the Light Seer's Tarot, the Seven of Cups; from the Tapestry Oracle, Fate:
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, catch a tiger by the toe... And if he doesn't eat you, then you live to make a better choice next time. I like that Donnelly has turned the bowls over in this card, because sometimes you just don't know how those choices will turn out. According to rational choice theory, individuals use their self-interests and personal preferences to make choices that will provide them with the greatest benefit. The reward of a relationship or action must outweigh the cost, but if the value drops below the cost, the relationship is ended. Which brings up the card Fate, destiny beyond a person's control. Granted, there are a multitude of things beyond our control, but it is often our choices that place us in the middle of certain situations. If we can understand how our decisions played a part (rather than blame someone or something else), we can make wiser choices the next time.
benefits being odd sometimes. People who are always late, I've decided they get a kick out of the control issue.
ReplyDeleteThat be more of an issue of bad planning, but could be a choice of this is more important than that.
DeleteA lesson to just let go of the belief of control and trust the process.
ReplyDeleteNo one can predict how things will unfold in most cases.
