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."

Joyful Offering

This week I'll be using the Lilifer Tarot, created and self-published by Marion Costentin. I'll also be using the Wandering Soul Oracle, created and self-published by Rachael Jean. Today's draws are the King of Wands and Higher Power:

Create. Not for the money. Not for the fame. Not for the recognition. But for the pure joy of creating something and sharing it.
― Ernest Barbaric

This fiery king is pulsing with electrical energy and flames; if it weren't for the smile on his face and his relaxed posture, one might think he was angry or malevolent. Instead, his passion has found a positive outlet that not only brings him joy but also makes him a more creative and capable leader. In recovery circles, a Higher Power is something greater than one's ego. It may be thought of as an essence or energy that runs through all of creation; Paul Tillich called it the "Ground of Being." When we acknowledge this power, we can tap into it, allowing it to guide all we do so that everything becomes an offering rather than just being about us and the praise we accumulate.
