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."

Turn Around, Don't Drown

From the Prisma Visions Tarot, the Devil; from the Secret Language of Color Cards, Jade:

Even the friendliest snake will strike.
― Sabrina Newby

We all, at some point, crave relief or a bit of pleasure. That's a natural response to stress in our world. And the Devil is always ready to supply us with bliss or comfort, but we need to be wary. If we stay on his path for too long, we can become lost in his forest or be led right over a cliff. When our longing becomes an intense obsession, entirely motivating our daily actions, we are in danger of losing our way. Jade's message is that to heal, we must take action. Simply being aware will not save us; as Socrates said, “Knowing is not the same as doing.”
