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."

What is Precious

From the Legacy of the Divine Tarot, the Ten of Cups; from the Tea Leaf Reading Cards, Moon:

The glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money.
—Thomas Jefferson

As the Cups arc to the Ten, a shift takes place among those who are older and wiser. Contentment no longer comes with a big price tag - having the latest smartphone, a huge house, a fancy car, thousands of Facebook friends and eye candy on your arm. Now, deep satisfaction and gratitude come from the simpler, more basic things like a few close companions, a full belly and a safe, warm home. As Willie and Merle sang, "We're lookin' for a homelife and clean smellin' sheets and all the soft places to fall." The Moon suggests cycles and phases, a nod to the limited time we have left to embrace life's joys. Even the resentments, regrets and jealousies we carried for years suddenly seem unimportant as we realize how precious time can be when we love and are loved.
