It Matters

From the Druidcraft Tarot, the King of Pentacles; from the Druid Plant Oracle, Heather:

The King of Pentacles revels in the comforts of hearth and home, yet he also enjoys the natural world. To him, matter matters, regardless of whether it is something human formed or a creation of the earth. He believes in good stewardship, taking care of things rather than taking them for granted. Heather is a hardy shrub beloved by bees; beekeepers have been known to transport their hives to the moors to allow the production of sweet heather honey. Thus Heather represents that which is sweet and enjoyable. Yet sometimes we can become overwhelmed with our obligations and tasks. The companion book states: "We spend much our our time thinking about the difficult aspects of relationships and of our life... But try thinking about your life with a different focus. Spend time dwelling on all the positive aspects..."
