The tarot card the five of wands in the DruidCraft tarot shows five young men all pushing and competing against each other with long thin poles like staffs.

I've just got hold of a copy of a book by Ellen Meloy called The Anthropology of Turquoise : Meditations on Landscape, Art & Spirit. It's a momentous, beautiful book. Even the title is rapturous.
It made me think: what if we took that type of meditative understanding, that richness of verse into a study of the tarot, indeed, any divinatory system. I've claimed before here that these systems are often poetic, that they call us into the light of understanding through many and subtle ways.
So what if today each of us took on allowing for rapture in our lives, for that dance of enchantment with the quality of light flowing like a flecible beam through each of the tarot cards? Not only tarot as a work of art, but understanding as a piece of art. How would that look?
All the best
