This week I'll be using Songs for the Journey Home, a deck and book set created and self-published by Catherine Cook and Dwariko von Sommaruga. I'll also be using the Raven Cards, an oracle created by Gabi Bucker and published by AG Muller. Today's draws are Earth Innocence (Page of Pentacles) and "Let yourself be borne up:"
The Page of Earth is a hands-on kind of gal. She wants to experience how a seed becomes a tree, how eggs hatch into baby birds, and what the owl sees from atop its perch. It's not really a sense of adventure that drives her, but her insatiable curiosity. If she can hang on to her inquisitiveness, she'll be a student of earth her entire life. The Raven's message is to cease our busyness, relax and let others be of help to us. (Psalms 91 is often invoked during times of suffering or hardship.) Yet if we are like this Page, our constant refrain might be "
I want to do it." But allowing others to help us can also teach us something - courage and humility.
Asking for help is never a sign of weakness. It's one of the bravest things you can do.
― Lily Collins
