I use tarot and oracle cards as tools for reflection and contemplation. Rather than divining the future, they are a way for me to look more deeply at the "now."

MVP

From the Shadowscapes Tarot, the Six of Wands; from the Cedar Runes, Hagalaz:

This fellow has climbed to the top of a statue to emphasize his great success. Even if he was the MVP, leaving behind his comrades below seems a bit arrogant. Why would he not want to share this moment with everyone? He has forgotten the magic that happened when many people worked together, had each other's backs, and shared resources. I bet it didn't slip his team's mind. That dizzying surge of self-importance will only last a day or two; when success is shared, it's joy can last a lifetime. The rune Hagalaz means hail, a destructive force of nature. It implies drastic and unpleasant change that will bring back balance and order. Sounds like the mighty is headed for a fall. He might take Rainer Maria Rilke's advice: "Make your ego porous."
