I see a bad moon arisin'
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today
Don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
~ John Fogerty
I suppose it was both the literal and metaphorical darkness of this card, but as soon as I drew it, I heard Creedence Clearwater Revival's song Bad Moon Rising playing in my head. Not only do the lyrics talk about earthquakes and lightning, they also speak of hurricanes a'blowing and rivers overflowing. Geez louise... it's like having a nonstop loop of Fox News' doom and gloom playing in your head. Now I have plenty of real-life drama in my little sphere, and I know there are some serious issues going on all over the world. But I refuse to passively stand there and let the wolf of darkness eat me; I'm going to move on until I find some sunlight.
The OH set is made up of two decks, one of pictures and one with words. I drew the ants first and then the card "joy." Now what could one have to do with the other? I'm thinking cooperation and group effort that leads to some fun. There's nothing like hanging out with friends who like to laugh and enjoy the moment if I want to keep the wolf in his lair.
