Here and Now

I have drawn another "egg" card today.  This deck has several cards that prominently feature an egg.  Birthing something new maybe.  I have been watching an eagle nest cam that my friend Bev told me about and both eggs hatched last week and both died this week.  I think it might have been the heavy rains that occurred over that nest in Georgia.  Not even momma eagle could keep them completely dry and warm with several days of torrential rain.  Sad, but part of life.  That Eagle pair have been very successful raising their babies for years. This year, sadly not.  And that is true with lots of new things we start as well.  Sometimes we are successful and sometimes not.  Still we must and do continue on.  That is Life.

Pitch Perfect

It is said that we all have a note or sound that we resonate with, much like the Universe hums along to OM.  Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do - (OM).
There are songs that get my heart to beat a bit faster and my toes a tappin'.   Some of the sweetest songs or tunes to hear are those of our birds. Thankfully Spring is around the corner and they will begin their song fest to announce Spring, encourage companions, and the trees and grass to grow.  Lovely.







Wisdom of the Oracle

One door closes

"When one door closes another door opens, but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us." - Alexander Graham Bell

And you know it is usually true.  Life is change and change comes whether we are ready or not; the trick is to embrace the change and grow.  It is not too late to try something new and open a new door.

Aware

I know this.  Sometimes I have to remind myself and then remind myself again.

Fortunes and Follies

Is Life a bunch of randomness?  Fortunes and follies, a roll of the dice? Right place - right or wrong time?  Are we born to our fortunes and follies?  Sometimes you win - Sometimes you lose?
I did not wake up with these questions, but this depiction of Justice has me asking them.  This opens a dialogue within myself that I don't want to have today.  So I will just take this card's appearance as a suggestion to do the right or best thing I can with myself today.

Warning

Pay attention.  This makes me think of all the people and me too sometimes that are texting while doing something else.  Walking, driving, dining, movies, shopping and the list can go on.  We are deluding ourselves that we can do two things adequately at the same time.  We are menace to ourselves and others, and something is lost when we are not present in the moment.  Reminds me to be in the here and now,

Man oh man

Look who is coming by today!  Probably need a dose of his vibrant energy.  All cloud cover and lots of rain in my neighborhood.
The (lwb) possible description for him 'dark man'  I have to disagree.  The King of Pentacles is the 'dark man' if there would be one and of course there could be.  The King of Wands might cast a shadow with his wands energy, but dark, I don't think so. He might be tempted for a bit with something off the beaten path since he likes to shine, but a few steps in and he would turn back and cast his gaze on something or someone more suitable.
