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."

Without Reserve

From the Osho Zen Tarot, the Three of Water (Cups); from the A'HA Oracle, Tenderness:

The thing that leads to intimacy and relationship and connection is tenderness.
―Greg Boyle

Celebration doesn't depend on circumstances or a special day, but on enjoying the close relationships we've developed. Having a few trustworthy, devoted friends can make even rainy, dark days a bit brighter. But those kind of connections may not be easy to find because we may fear being taken advantage of when we are vulnerable. That is a possibility, but we can at least use those situations to look for any red flags we missed when we dare to try again. Tenderness suggests a heart that is generous, warm and spacious. It is accepting of the whole, even if some parts don't align with our preferences. Such a heart tends to draw other such hearts, creating a small cluster of people who care for each other without reserve.
