This week I'll be using the Llewellyn Tarot, created by Anna-Marie Ferguson and published by Llewellyn. I'll also be using the Beasts of Albion, an oracle deck created by Miranda Gray and published by Aquarian. Today's draws are the Ten of Swords and Wolf:
Sometimes we surrender our views and accept things as they are because we've gained clarity from a different perspective. At other times, life has to beat us nearly senseless before we're ready to submit. Even an arthritic body can't compare to a mind that is stiff, unbending and unwilling to open. We'll take medicine for the first but not for the latter until our suffering becomes absolutely intolerable. In Celtic mythology, the Wolf was seen both as a feared predator and a trusted guide, similar to our mind's dual nature. How it is used determines whether it is our master or our servant. As William James reminds us, “Man can alter his life by altering his thinking.”
