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."

Five Faces

From the Sacred India Tarot, the Ace of Lotuses (Cups); from the Land Sky Oracle, Refresh:
          The Ace of Cups is represented by the Five Faces of Shiva. Each face represents an action and a direction:
  1. creation - west 
  2. preservation - north 
  3. dissolution - south 
  4. concealing grace - east 
  5. revealing grace - skyward 
It could be said that our relationships go through similar cycles: appearing, developing, dissolving, being misunderstood, and finding insight. Like everything else, they never stay the same. Refresh is illustrated with a howlite stone, a symbol of harmony. To keep our hearts open and in balance, we must allow the ebb and flow of any relationship, being willing to embrace, cultivate, let go, forgive, and receive its wisdom.
