The Sun:
And remember, in the winter, far beneath the bitter snow, lies the seed that with the Sun’s love, in the spring becomes the rose.
The Wheel of Fortune:
And there remains always a still but intensely alive space at the center of the wheel, a core of peace in the midst of activity that is both the source of all and untouched by all. - Eckhart Tolle
Strength:
And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing but a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world...But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. Antoine de Saint Exupery, “The Little Prince”
The High Priestess:
For the house, the stars, the desert – what gives them their beauty is something that is invisible. What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides an oasis.
Antoine de Saint Exupery, “The Little Prince”
The Fool: (reminds me of what he holds in his bag)
A beggar had been sitting by the side of a road for over thirty years. One day a stranger walked by. “Spare some change?” mumbled the beggar, mechanically holding out his old baseball cap. “I have nothing to give you,” said the stranger. Then he asked: “What’s that you are sitting on?” “Nothing,” replied the beggar. “Just an old box. I have been sitting on it for as long as I can remember.” “Ever look inside?” asked the stranger. “No,” said the beggar. “What’s the point? There’s nothing in there.” “Have a look inside,” insisted the stranger. The beggar managed to pry open the lid. With astonishment, disbelief, and elation, he saw that the box was filled with gold.
I am that stranger who has nothing to give you and who is telling you to look inside. Not inside any box, as in the parable, but somewhere even closer; inside yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
Page of Cups:
There are those that look at things the way they are and ask why…I dream of things of things that never were, and ask why not? Robert F. Kennedy
Ten of Pentacles:
Man can raise five thousand roses in the same garden and do not find in it what he is looking for. And yet, what he is looking for can be found in one single rose, or in a little water. For the eyes are blind. One must look with the heart. Antoine de Saint Exupery, “The Little Prince”
Six of Pentacles:
Quid pro quo.
Ten of Wands:
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed at the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream. Discover. Mark Twain
The High Priestess:
If a direction is right you will know it automatically. If, however, making up your mind requires you to go through great trials and tribulations, you can be sure that that particular course is not the one for you. Basically, it is well to remember, if you have to ponder a decision, it is usually a mistake. When it is right, you will know. Stuart Wilde
