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."

Stop Banging on the Door

From the Sun and Moon Tarot, the Four of Swords; from the Wisdom Keepers Oracle, Magnetism:
          I am a finisher, a closer, a "let's get this done ahead of schedule" kind of person. So as I look at the uncomfortable place this woman has found to rest, I understand that uneasy feeling of calling a truce instead of seeking a solution. Those swords are firmly planted in the ground, so it doesn't look like much is happening anyway. Might as well let the mind drift and do some cloud watching for now. The Magnetism card encourages behavior based on attraction rather than persuasion. The spiral in the center of this figure's forehead suggests centering oneself instead of running around like a madwoman. Added with the Four of Swords, it implies being receptive and allowing ideas to come instead of actively pursuing answers and resolution. When I'm narrowly focused on a certain strategy and outcome, the potential resources and options at hand are narrowed too. Yet if I relax my mind and let those thought clouds drift by, I might find a key to unlock the door I've been banging on.
