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."

Silence Doesn't Always Protect

From the Dark Goddess Tarot, the Siren (Knight) of Air (Swords); from the Tattwa Cards, Ether/Seed of Earth:


Lilith, in Mesopotamian and Judaic mythology, was said to be the first wife of Adam who was banished from the Garden of Eden for not obeying Adam. She was demeaned by the religious and admired by feminists. Her message is that it is time to face our fear, quit hiding all that we are, and stop compromising our spirit. Being different and speaking up for oneself should not be demonized. Ether/Seed of Earth suggests gestation; it is a time of patience, preparation and learning (keep our mouth closed and our ears open). Our truth needs to be heard, but first we must collect information and evidence to ensure that what is heard is more than just our anger.

Your silence will not protect you.
― Audre Lorde
