two of discs








Flexibility

Balance

Juggling







"The Two of Pentacles is about having a ton of flexibility. There is a lot stacked on your pile and your responsibilities seem to be growing. You have done a good job of making your efforts look seamless, much like a juggler who adds more and more balls to the whimsical circle they spin, much to the amusement and amazement of others. To see this card in a reading suggests that you are doing okay in the moment, but that what you are doing cannot be sustained in the long term. You have achieved a lot and have momentum, but may benefit from focusing your efforts into a more unified approach." 












partner






"Duality in the earth suit becomes you and another real person. The Two of Disks is about partnership: the specific connection to a specific other for a specific purpose. A working connection between partners requires mutual intent and integrity. To have a bridge, both sides must hold up their ends. Both must also stretch beyond their anchors and reach into space. Then each must meet and synchronize with another. The Two of Disks teaches that with cooperation with another, sharing your strength and abilities, great work is possible for you. 
The otherness of this partner may strain or confuse you. But it is not something you can "fix" or balance out all by yourself. Do not act in a way unnatural to your authentic self, or the partnership will not have integrity. The challenge and opportunity here is for both of you to use the best of your abilities for the common goal, without attempting to deny or overshadow the other's contribution and potential. And should darkness loom, give what you've got, and find and hold to what you need." 

















“Touch forever changes the face of the world, the connection to it and every other.” I am touched by time,  embraced by time, wrapped in the infinite ouroboros of time.

Fool




A thing
cannot be
delivered
enough times:
this is the
rule of dogs
for whom there
are no fool’s
errands. To
loop out and
come back is
good all alone.
It’s gravy to
carry a ball
or a bone

-Kay Ryan, “Fool’s Errands”
















"In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again."

-down the rabbit hole

















"A Fool’s journey begins at Zero and concludes at Zero- a complete circle."

"...the fool is that archetype that turns things on their head, makes us laugh, and for a moment, forget our fear." -colette obrian











"It is freeing to become aware that we do not have to be victims of our past and can learn new ways of responding. But there is a step beyond this recognition. It is the step of forgiveness.
It sets us free.

~ Carolyn Osiek











The Crone Speaks:

To know me, first know this ~
In the beginning, as in the End there is Nothing
There is Nothing
Behind your ordinary world
Behind all manifestation
Lies the Void

I am the emptiness surrounding the universe
I am the uncertainty of the electron
I am the nothingness hiding in your soul

In the Void you have no name
Words do not exist
You have no memory, no past or future
Time does not exist
You find no landmarks, you have no body
Matter does not exist

But You
You may still exist

A mere spark of awareness

But that is enough
That is where you begin
