Don't make a mountain out of a molehill.
When presented with some monumental undertaking, there are times I can allow myself to be overwhelmed before beginning. I am sure others get stuck in the same clutch of worry and fear. There are those that are available to help and assist. The dog at the base of cliff shows there are footholds to begin the climb as well as companionship for the journey.
I no longer have to prove to anybody, myself included, that I can do it by myself. Why go it alone when a little bit of company is enjoyable.
"Worrying is like praying for what you don't want."

Perhaps I have always known everything important but will need a lifetime to discover what I know. Tarot and Oracles offer me guides and sign posts to help me along my way.

Preperation
Don't leave home without it.
Without what I ask?
It is the holidays and the traffic is non stop. I often wonder where everybody comes from this time of year. Yesterday I saw at least 6 almost accidents. People plowing through red lights so they can get wherever 2 minutes quicker. My business really scales back for the next month or so and thank goodness for that.
So don't leave home with out it: is courage, fortitude and prayers, to make it out and about and back in one piece. Maybe those shields at the front door remind me that a best offense is a good defense.

attracting opposites
Sometimes you just have to allow the imagery time to convey. I have a hair color and cut appointment this morning so these cards may just be that. Cut and Color.
Light and Dark
High Noon - Full Moon
Dry and Wet
Hack away and drift along
Land and sea
Loaves and fishes
Work and play
The work we do and the way we feel about it
Cultivated land and rugged sea coast
Not sure where all these contrasts lead me? Maybe it will be a really interesting day with lots of this n that.

Affect vs Effect
As above so below.
UPS has it's national hub in Louisville, I live right across the Ohio river in Southern Indiana about 22 miles from the airport. The UPS jets are non stop this time of year, and on the weekend with limited business flights, OH MY!
Overhead approximately every minute a jet goes over, and there are several other major approaches to the airport. At night when I am trying to get to sleep the overhead traffic can become like a earworm, relentless with its distracting noise. I sometimes wonder what all that sky traffic is doing to the air and how much of those chemicals of burnt fuel fall to Earth? Only time will tell, though I sure it will not be a pretty story.

Shelter in place
What we think about we bring about? Most interpretations of this card are negative. I say who needs it?
It must of taken me five attempts to scan and save this card. I guess I just do not want to have this vision of hardship play in my head or play with my head today. Who needs omens or hints of a crappy day. Everything is pretty good in my world at the moment and I just as soon keep it that way.
I usually see fives as a fulcrum point in the middle of the line of the ten cards of the suit in the Minor Arcana, a sort of tipping point. It reminds of the balance card that I posted below Justice yesterday and will again at the bottom of this post. If things are out balance I best see what is on the scales. If things start to tip towards the negative today I will rephrase my thoughts.

How did this happen?
Decisions made today become part of who I am tomorrow. With that in mind I will remember I am today because of decisions of my yesterdays.
Yesterday I attended a breakfast meeting with other Real Estate agents in the area. Of the eight of us at the table only two of us actually listened to the presentation, the others spent their time engaged with their phones and as I looked around the room it was similar at other tables. At one point years ago I too was always tethered to my phone, not so now. I can turn it off and put it away and give my attention to what is at hand.
It reminded me again to pay attention to what is front and center because that is where the real magic of tomorrow is; what I am doing right now.

What is something new I can learn today?
I have never seen the giant Redwoods out West. Those wonderful sages of nature; I am sure a wonder to behold. If I went to the woods - would I find a beloved wise woman perched beneath a tree offering me a lesson on life? I don't recall really ever drawing the Hierophant or in this deck the Teacher. I look forward to meeting this individual today or maybe something new in the offing will be presented to me today.
Mostly I am open to learning something new, but I am sorry - the first thing I would have to ask is why would you sit on the grass in white pants? Maybe it was spur of the moment thing. Maybe she remembered to carry a sitting pad with her on her walk. Maybe such a spiritual person doesn't worry about grass stains. Maybe that is the lesson the Teacher is passing on to me, not to get hung up on the mundane things and live only in the moment under the Tree of Life.
