Today's Tarot - Ace of Cups


Originally published in 2011:
If there is wholeness (and I believe there is), then we touch the same spark as the greatest minds and spirits that have ever lived.
If you need to balance the checkbook, remember you are part of the same universe as Nelson Rockefellar and the legend of King Midas. If you have a difficult problem to solve, remember you are part of the same whole as Einstein and Newton. If you need wisdom, you walk the same earth as did Confucious, and Lau Tzu.  If you see suffering in others or feel it yourself, this is the same place of being as Mother Theresa, the Dali Lama, and millions of unsung heros who do simple kindnesses every day.
On the artwork of the of the Raider White Tarot deck, it shows a dove bringing a wafer to an overflowing water chalice. That reminds me of our connection to the wholeness, the entirety of space, time and dimensions. A very comforting notion.
When we are part of everything, our cup is full.

Daily Meditation Tarot Reading - Page of Cups


The page of cups has been turning up like crazy lately - different people, different times, different spins and circumstances. Our Page is trying to get something through! Here is today's take on the card. 


Page of Cups: "Dealing with old demons" (Diane Morgan)....


"The distinction between past, present and future is only a stubborn, persistent illusion" 
- Albert Einstein


Remember yesterday's quote from Richard Bach? Only you can control what effect and how much effect the past has on you today.


Turn that around for a minute...if you want to make a change, the result you want already exists in one future path or another. To improve your chances of success, try to do things so you don't dissappoint that already-successful future-you.


Harry Potter is a good example, for those of you who saw the movie "The Prisoner of Azekaban". He stepped out and sent his patronus to protect his hours-ago self and Sirius. He knew he could do it because he already had. 


If you feel discouraged, don't give up, just remember, you can do this...because somewhere out there in the big old time-space continuum, you already have.


I love this idea - but it isn't mine.  Please read Richard Bach's "One" for more inspiration! Let me know if you are interested in other reading suggestions like this one.
