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."

Fortunate

From the Prisma Visions Tarot, the Hermit; from the Secret Language of Color Cards, 'Silver:'
          I tend to see the Hermit in a similar way to the Seven of Pentacles - as an assessment. But rather than an external inventory, the Hermit represents an internal one. Standing on the bridge, he temporarily pauses in the stream of life, looking back at decisions made and actions taken from a spiritual standpoint. Silver suggests I be persistent in this fearless endeavor of honestly evaluating my own stuff without excuses or blame. We met with our insurance adjuster yesterday who looked over our property damage so we could file a claim (he was wonderfully calming and helpful). We have more damage than we initially realized, yet most of it will be covered. My Hermit reflection time brought me this awareness: I am much more fortunate than I feel. 

Here is the rule to remember in the future, When anything tempts you to be bitter: not, 'This is a misfortune' but 'To bear this worthily is good fortune.' ~Marcus Aurelius
