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."

Winds are Blowing

From the Hoi Polloi Tarot, the Two of Pentacles; from the I Ching Pack, Hexagram 59 (Dispersion):



A great wind is blowing, and that gives you either imagination or a headache.
―Catherine the Great

This fellow juggles two pentacles connected by an infinity ribbon - a reminder that our lives are a constant adjustment to change in the physical world. His tall sugar-loaf hat is symbolic of the sailor who wets his finger and holds it aloft to see which way the wind is blowing. It's easy to get so caught up in keeping things in the air that we forget to be aware of approaching shifts. Hexagram 59 (Dispersion) indicates that a transformation is afoot with the impending removal of obstacles and misunderstandings. It might at first feel like the sky is falling, but this clearing out will eventually allow us to make progress and grow.
