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."

Softening

This week I'll be using the Fey Tarot, created by Riccardo Minetti and Mara Aghem and published by Lo Scarabeo. The oracle deck I'll be using is the I Misteri della Sibilla (The Mysteries of the Sibyl), created by E. Maiotti and published by Dal Negro. Today's draws are Temperance and Messenger (Jack of Diamonds):

This Temperance card shows a mix of water, air, earth and fire - the elements flow together rather than work against each other. Here there is a restful softening, a receptiveness that doesn't grasp or push away but allows. This fey would explain that it is our rigidity that causes us to break. The Sibilla's Messenger indicates information that comes that we may or may not welcome. Will we remain soft and flexible or become unyielding in response? However if we take 'self' out of the picture and allow our emotional energy to dissipate without fueling it, the message simply becomes information that we can deal with appropriately.

Solid Information

From the Fey Tarot, the Seven of Swords; from the I Misteri Sibilla, Messaggero (Jack of Diamonds):


          This translucent Fey is camouflaged to blend into her surroundings. She isn't interested in a heist but information; she's an undercover operative. Dealing with a big problem by meeting them head-on isn't always prudent or wise. There are times when we need to quietly and skillfully collect evidence. Messaggero (Messenger) is an intermediary who arrives with useful information. While his news is helpful in putting all the puzzle pieces together, the facts the Fey collects will be paramount in making a case. Hearsay should not be confused with certainty.

For any reputable person or organization to be successful, that person's or organization's actions must be based on solid information, not conspiracy theories, not hearsay, not rumors, and certainly not fear mongering. ― Mike Klepper
