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."

Above Water

From the Tarot of the Hidden Realms, the Six of Cups; from the Heart of Faerie Oracle, the Lady of Song:


When we are not submerged in our memories and look at them with a more objective view, they often become more or less than the original version. Maybe it is that maturity and experience gives us other angles from which to see them. We could have a better understanding of why something happened and the mental make-up of the players involved, or we might have an appreciation of an event that we didn't think too much about as a child. The Lady of Song does not sing but listens to the song of the universe, noting how what might at first seem noisy and chaotic has a harmony within it. She knows we are all part of this song. How we choose to integrate our past will affect our present. Acceptance and forgiveness can help us hear the harmony; shame or anger will drown out its sweet song. 

Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.
