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."

Mistaken for Misconduct

From the Buckland Romani Tarot, the Five of Koshes (Staves); from the Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards, Ksa (Goddess of Water):
          Morris dancers perform in a field, while Romani vardos move on to another area. Their sticks suggest the bedlam form, which is loud and energetic. I read where many modern groups have had unexpected dances in public areas (like the flash mobs), only to have the police break it up because they were disturbing others. What seems fun and exciting to one group may feel like an invasion to another. Ksa, the spirit of water, symbolizes uncovering and transforming emotions. When I have a feeling of intense dislike, a sense that I want to push back at another's way of doing things, I need to take a deeper look. Perhaps it is simply that we do things differently; one way is not better or more proper than the other. If there's no harm done, what's the harm?
...equipped with righteous indignation and warmed by moral certitude. She threw great logs of 'I'm right, you're an unfeeling bastard' onto the fire and felt secure and comforted.
