From the Slavic Legends Tarot, the Two of Wands; from the Urban Crow Oracle, Mimicry:
This young person has a choice to make - to follow the map of the known or venture out into the unknown. Neuroscientists have found that when we're stressed, our visual field narrows in focus; when we're relaxed we expand our periphery. It's no wonder then that people with an important decision to make like to gaze at the horizon, giving them a chance to unwind and envision more possibilities than just one. Mimicry shows a dog confused by a crow that doesn't sound like a crow. Crows can mimic many sounds made by animals or humans. One morning I thought for sure I had a wild turkey gobbling in my backyard, only to see it was a crow. This card suggests we pause and ask if this opportunity might not be as shiny and bright as it was presented. Or, perhaps we pretended to be interested and now have gotten tangled into something that just isn't us. We might need to keep staring out at that horizon a while longer.
