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."

Plot Twist

From the Classic Tarot, the Knight of Batons; from the Constellation Cards, Centaurus:

When something goes wrong in your life just yell 'PLOT TWIST', and move on.
― Molly Weis

The Knight of Batons is known for his focused energy; if the Page of Batons is a shotgun, the Knight is a rifle. Both the horse and the Knight gaze at the club - the man in adoration and the horse with impatience. Once he sets his mind to something, he is unshakable and will be galloping in pursuit like a wide-open locomotive on rails with no switch to be guided in a different direction. In his buoyant enthusiasm, he fails to see that life rarely offers a straight shot at anything. Centaurus is one of the largest constellations in the southern sky. In Greek mythology, Centaurus was a deformed child who found no peace among humans and so moved to the mountains of the Magnesian mares. There he became the father of the centaur race. As Tuli Kupferberg said, “When patterns are broken, new worlds emerge.”
