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."

Connecting the Dots

From the Tarot of Mystical Moments, the Seven of Pentacles; from the Inner Eye Oracle, the Six of Diamonds:

No incident, however seemingly trivial, is unimportant in the scheme of things.
― Jodi Taylor

The Seven of Pentacles offers us a pause to assess the fruits of our work. It gives us a chance to connect the dots - actions taken or not taken, resources used, effort expended - to see whether we are making progress, stagnating or moving backward. It appears the young lady in the tree has many fruits and flowers to show for her exertions. But perhaps just as important, she has seeds to reinvest. In other words, her work is sustainable. The Six of Diamonds' tree symbolizes family and our ancestors. It is a neutral card, but it might suggest we look at our work ethic and other beliefs we've inherited to see if they are constructive or destructive in our endeavors.
