From the Ferret Tarot, the Ace of Wands; from the Nature's Wisdom Oracle, Praying Mantis:
Passion, though a bad regulator, is a powerful spring.
―Ralph Waldo Emerson
The things that inspire and excite us can move us from inaction to action. We become enthusiastically motivated to pursue dreams, to create what we've imagined and to follow what calls us. Yet Praying Mantis suggests we slow our roll and take stock of those we might unintentionally hurt in our eagerness. Are we taking resources that don't just belong to us? Have we discussed our plans with those they will affect? As Ben Frankin advised, "If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins."
