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."

It Can Be Uncomfortable

From the Lilifer Tarot, the Two of Wands; from the Wandering Soul Oracle, Memories:

When it comes to choices, there is no one way our life is supposed to go. Each choice leads to another branch of possibilities and on and on it goes.
― Dee Waldeck

These two little demons remind me of game show host announcers. "Come on down! You're the next contestant on Expand Your Life!" Moving from our comfort zone into the unknown can be scary but also exciting. We have a chance to get out of our routine and try our hand at something new. Maybe we prefer to put a toe in the water instead of jumping in with both feet, and that's okay. Each new choice we make will open other doors for us to peer into. The Memories card points to our habit of thinking about the past as "the good ole days." Of course our experiences were not all good; we just think of them that way when the present is a challenge. But don't let the hard times sway you. As Jonathan Majors said, "Growth is uncomfortable; you have to embrace the discomfort if you want to expand."
