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 Choice and the Duty

 From the Rohrig Tarot, the Seven of Cups; from the Master Tarot (Oracle), the Moralist:



The power to make a choice goes with the duty of accepting the responsibility of the outcome of the choice. ―Michael Eneyo

This Seven of Cups card warns that we need to look carefully at our underlying motives when it comes to emotional fulfillment. What might bring a tidbit of pleasure can pull a caboose that carries a ton of pain. The intoxicating wish to escape reality and live in a fantasy is understandable but a fallacy in our physical world. The Moralist is someone who knows laws and ethics well. Yet his attitude of superiority and pretense of righteousness keep him on a pedestal, judging others while justifying his own flawed actions. Regardless of how we may sculpt our choices to look rational and acceptable, we just can't outrun reality.
