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."

The Best Use

From The Classic Tarot, the Five of Coins; from the Constellations Deck, Taurus:


Make the best use of what is in your power and take the rest as it happens.
―Epictetus

The five sectioned off coins are like little pockets of savings that are apart from our regular budget. However, this savings plan is not only about money. It also includes other assets that we often give little thought until they take a hit: our energy, health and time. Are we wasting or ignoring how we're spending these resources? Taurus is an earth sign that enjoys comforts, yet this is balanced by a greater desire for stability and practicality. Epictetus reminds us to be a discerning master of our desires: "It is the nature of the wise to resist pleasures, but the foolish to be a slave to them."
