From the Brady Tarot, the Seven of Horns (Cups); from the Wisdom of the Forest, Light:
Beavers in the wild hate the sound of running water. If they hear it, they will work long hours to locate and repair any leaks in their dam. The illustration of these two beavers sleeping while their dam slowly breaks is a strong commentary on wasting our time in a fantasy world of wishful hopes. There is a big difference between using our imagination and simply fantasizing. Imagination is goal oriented while fantasy is free-floating and does not require principles of science and nature to stand. The Light card suggests we need clarity - we see reality as it is rather than as we think it should be. Hopefully we'll discover that happiness isn't something that can be chased down or bought.
Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product.
~Eleanor Roosevelt
