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."

The View from Here

From the Tarot of the Sidhe, the World; from the Green Man Tree Oracle, Beech:

"You all know," said the Guide, "that security is mortals' greatest enemy."
― C.S. Lewis

The spiral in this World card suggests that not only have we completed a circuit in our life, but that we should be able to see from a higher, wider view than when we first started. Though we may pause and reflect on what we've learned and experienced, there are more circuits to travel. Beech has been linked with wisdom as it was used to write upon before the development of books. In The Bach Flower Remedies, it is used against mental rigidity, fault finding, intolerance, and arrogance. Standing still, clinging to what we've learned, will not serve us well. There is always more to learn.
