From the Tarot of Caro, the Queen of Wands; from the Holitzka I Ching, Hexagram 53:
The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning. ~Mitch Albom
The flat ears and narrowed eyes of this panther are probably watching the Knight of Wands stumble out of bed after another night of drinking and a one night stand. The Queen of Wands is a woman of fiery passion, but she's more than a party girl. She believes that each person has gifts that should be nurtured so that they can create something meaningful. There's nothing wrong with fun, she'd say, but what are you growing with your energy and enthusiasm? Chasing pleasures doesn't bring the same kind of lasting satisfaction. Hexgram 53 is called Gradual Progress, and is a caution that nothing grows overnight; tenacity is needed to see things through.
