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."

End of a Chapter

From the Buckland Romani Tarot, the Eight of Koros (Cups); from the Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards, Thunder-Beings:


Who can't relate to the idea of leaving one chapter behind and moving on to the next? 
–Mike Shinoda

Eight teacups are left behind in a meadow as a Romani wagon moves on. It's hard to leave behind relationships, jobs or groups that we have a history with, particularly if there was joy in them at some point. But things and people change; what once was emotionally fulfilling may not always be so. Thunder-Beings were powerful storm spirits that lived in the sky and brought lightning, rain and winds. They remind us that we also have powerful energy that can be used to help or harm. If we find it is time to leave behind an emotional connection, we don't have to speak harshly about them. We can simply keep them in our hearts, wishing the best for them, and move on.
