I'm Glad You Were Born
It's not often you get real insight watching the news, but it can happen.
I'm a fan of the Rachel Maddow Show - no secret about that.
What I saw on a recent broadcast was even more heartening than usual. It reminded me a little bit of the 3 of Cups tarot card.
There was a clip from the conservative CPAC or some such thing where a man essentially said he wished Dr. Maddow had never been born. His face was hard and his voice dripping with hate and bigotry, obviously making no attempt to even be civil.
I'm sorry that I forget the name of the lady who followed that clip. Her response was perfect. She told Dr. Maddow "I'm glad you were born."
Even outside of the context of the situation, what a beautiful, compassionate wonderful thing to say! What a lovely, succinct celebration of life and our fellow man! Born not of religion, or doctrine or political policy...it was a spontaneous remark, meeting hatred with happiness.
It put the whole news cycle into perspective. Instead of hating, and whining, and wanting special privileges for a certain point of view, why can't we just be glad we, and each, other was born? At least we are here to have the argument. Better still, we are here to get past it.
I'm glad you were born,

That was fun...football predictions
Want to see an exercise that develops your intuition as you watch your favorite sport?
Meanwhile...moving on...
Raise your hand if you have a rousing case of "Steeleritis" today. Me too. Stayed up too late watching the game and am sleepy today. Cup of coffee #3 coming soon.
I love it when the Steelers win...makes such a nice vibe around town. I hope it continues, and I hope the "vision" of last week continues, that by winning the conference they win the whole enchilada.
Did any of you try "watching" the outcome with your intuition while you were watching the game (whichever conference or sport you follow)? I'd be interested in your comments about the sports-watching intuition building exercise, if you did try it (you can send them to faq@modern-oracle-tarot.com if you are reading on kindle, and I hope you are. I love my Kindle!)
I don't know about you, but I'm not totally in the mood to get back to "work" so to speak. Todays a good day to keep things light...so lets see what comes up for the Super Bowl...keeping in mind lots can change between now and then....
Will the Pittsburgh Steelers win Super Bowl 45?
Maybe, leaning yes....Ace of wands, ace of cups, 3 of cups
Three of cups is merriment...
And wands have to do with self-awareness...and this is so much a part of our community identity...
cups is intuition...and I'm as surprised as you are that I was lucky enough to get the win and score right for the SB win in detroit and the AFC win last night...(boy it was fun though)
So my inexpert guess is Steelers over Green Bay...by a slightly bigger margin (right now the difference in "look" between the two logos...maybe around a touchdown, maybe less again. I hear "upset"...and right now the experts are saying Green Bay, aren't they?
It will be fun to watch and see how it goes...and see the commercials if nothing else.
Not that it matters...it's just a game, it's just for fun...
And there is the serious lesson for the day...it is attachment to unimportant things that leads to suffering. Contentment with what you have is like having the wealth of the world at your fingertips. Karma and Dharma and all that.
Here we go Steelers! Let's go Pens!

daily meditation - 3 of cups
It is so easy to focus only on the thing causing you pain, and miss everything around it...focusing only on the thorn that pricked your finger, and missing the rose's fragrance.
So often we turn to Tarot, wanting an answer to one thing...career, romance, finances...and the answer is none of the above...
Career, family, romance...these are the crown jewels of life.
Sometimes with have to build and repair the crown before the jewels can be set. Sometimes you have to build the crown before the gemstones are found.
Wishing you both a beautiful crown, and gemstones here and to come.
