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."

Curiosity

From the Slavic Legends Tarot, the High Priestess; from the Urban Crow Oracle, Curiosity:

Knowledge is measuring that the desert path is 12.4 miles long.
Wisdom is packing enough water for the hike.
Insight is building a lemonade stand at the 6th mile.
~Christopher Reiss

The High Priestess has plenty of knowledge and wisdom, but what she offers that is most important is insight. She teaches us to calmly sit and incubate our information and experience. This priestess shows us how open awareness, rather than a narrow focus, can develop insights that allow us to understand relationships, motives and the bigger picture. The Curiosity card implies that we need to hold lightly what we know (rather than thinking we're an expert) and be willing to open doors and explore. There's always more to find below the surface.
