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."

Having Enough

From the Cosmic Tarot, the Empress; from the L'Oeil de Lotus, Effort:

“Just living is not enough," said the butterfly, "one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.”
― Hans Christian Anderson

The Empress is the Earth Mother, the one who provides for all creation. There could and should be enough for all, but humans in their greed and fear have created deficits for others. We have forgotten that we are interdependent, existing only in balance with the whole. Effort suggests we exert ourselves, not to have it all, but to make sure we leave plenty for the rest of earth's inhabitants. 

The secret of having it all is loving it all.
― Joyce Brothers
