From the Tarot of the Orishas, the Eight of Swords (Ochosi); from the Diloggun Cards, Seven Mouths (Edi):
Ochosi is the Orisha of the hunt, forests and animals, yet he is also known as a believer of impartial justice and equality. He has a little chuckle at us today, because we've constructed a prison for ourselves made of our own thoughts. Ochosi says, "You stand and look in one direction, seeking resources or a solution to your problem. Can you not look to the left, the right and behind you, realizing there are many other options?" The proverb for Edi (Seven Mouths) reads: "Always being in a hurry does not prevent death, neither does going slowly prevent living." Curiosity is the partner of patience; curiosity heightens our patience by keeping us interested. It grants us time to unravel problems rather than create more.
