A Different Pen

From the Margarete Petersen Tarot, the Chariotess; from the Elemental Dice, Ocean (Water + Water):

In her booklet, Petersen writes "Don't get stuck in indissoluble knots." The Ocean roll, suggests incredible depths, and in this case alludes to emotions. All emotions are valid and natural, but when we overfeed or attempt to suppress them they can become something abnormal and unhealthy. Rage, shame, obsession, depression, terror, and self-pity keep us stuck and unable to move forward. Our chariot wheels find no traction and simply spin in place. All the energy we expend regurgitating and replaying our thoughts can make us feel like we are getting something done when we are actually creating a deeper rut. Any progress will require that we stop watering those unwholesome seeds and plant some that are are more skillful.

If you get stuck, draw with a different pen. Change your tools; it may free your thinking.
