From the Norse Tarot, the Five of Discs; from the Viking Lenormand, Birds:
The love of money may be the root of all evil, but poverty is its wicked offspring. Hungry children have a harder time learning in school; parents who struggle financially are more susceptible to physical and mental health conditions. What makes this worse is that people who could help are stymied by a mindset of scarcity - the belief that there is not enough of something to go around, and that one must compete with others for limited resources. Motivated by insecurity, generosity doesn't stand a chance. Birds suggest a gathering and a shared conversation. Rather than judge, it invites us to sincerely listen to the stories of those who lack the basics for well-being. We may see that there is wide canyon between their reality and our ideas.
