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."

Stay Tuned

From the Restored Order Tarot, the Queen of Swords; from the Oracle of Kabbalah, Chet (artwork by Joel Moskowitz):



Fear is the major motivator for all of the action that takes place in the world. 
―Larry Winget

With a mind as sharp as her sword, the Queen of Swords prefers her conversations to be in person. She knows and notices 'tells,' small unconscious actions that expose a lie, omission or half-truth.  Her aim is not to shame others, but to instruct them: fear of the truth means that there is no foundation for solutions or making a better beginning. Chet resembles an archway or doorway and suggests that we have the power of choice to go beyond our normal reactions to life. Many of the barriers that hold us back are imagined; we'll never know what we can accomplish without stepping through that door. As William Shakespeare wrote, “We know what we are, but know not what we may be.”
