Readjusting the Scales

From the Tarot of the Cat People, Justice; from the Sacred Geometry Oracle, Continuous Proportion:

          Justice expects a straight answer when she asks me where my ideas, attitudes and actions are out of balance. I suspect 2020 has made many people feel like a released, blown up balloon that flies haphazardly without direction. We've all had the rug pulled out from beneath us in one way or another, so it's no wonder our scales are atilt. But the Continuous Proportion card asks me to look a little closer. This principle involves a set of numbers whose ratios are related - the first to the second, the second to the third, etc. For example, 1:3:9:27:81. It suggests I ask myself what is related or corresponds to my imbalance. Is my physical tiredness associated with inadequate exercise, an unhealthy diet or a lack of sleep? Is my negative attitude because the people I'm listening to see everything bad and nothing good in the world? Is my mind mush because I spend to much time watching TV or on the internet? There's only only person who can even up those scales - me.

Drops Filling a Giant Pot

From the Tarot of the Cat People, the Five of Swords; from the Sacred Geometry Oracle, Continuous Proportion:

          It's one thing to win an argument, but it takes it to another level when the other side is cowed into submission by intimidation. It's not enough that he wears a horned helmet to advertise his bullheaded personality, this man also wears the skins of cats to remind the others who is in charge (and who holds the only opinion that counts). He might get the 'honor' of always being right, but I bet he sleeps with one eye open. Continuous Proportion means that you can't change one thing without affecting everything else. Do something on one side, and the other side will be transformed too. Remove a dam and the water previously held behind it will seek its own level. Though I don't concern myself with rebirth, reincarnation or any form of resurrection, I do put stock in karma (intentional acts, words or thoughts). Both today's cards suggest taking Patrul Rinpoche's words to heart:

Do not take lightly small misdeeds

Believing they can do no harm

Even a tiny spark of fire

Can set alight a mountain of hay.

Do not take lightly small good deeds

Believing they can hardly help

For drops of water one by one

In time can fill a giant pot.
