From the Forest of Enchantment Tarot, the Huntsman (Justice); from the Mushroom Spirit Oracle, Lion's Mane:
It is essential that justice be done, and it is equally vital that justice not be confused with revenge, for the two are wholly different. —Oscar Aria
The Huntsman protects the forest and appears when something has upset the natural order of things. Is it ever anything but a human cause? People have plans and often don't care who or what they abuse and damage in order to be successful. But there is always a reverse in the pendulum swing, even though it rarely happens quickly. Climate change comes to mind (I'm in the purple zone):
Lion's Mane is a species of tooth fungus that tends to grow in a single clump with dangling spines. It is rich in vitamins and minerals and may help with inflammation. This fungus looks like a small fountain of water and represents calm. When there is injustice, it is tempting to act from a place of hatred and revenge. But first we must attend to the hurt and harm done, focusing on preventing it in the future.
So hard to do when we really think people will only learn if they get their "just deserts" but yes, more important than retribution of we mean to be loving or kind.
ReplyDeleteI definitely think we need to hold people accountable, but first aid first.
