He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either. – Friedrich Nietzsche Back for another visit, the Six of Pentacles appears on this New Moon and shows us a picture of resources given and received.

The Master sees things as they are, without trying to control them. She lets them go their own way, and resides at the center of the circle. – Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching This week we welcome the Two of Pentacles. In it, we see a young man dancing as he juggles his two disks. [...]
Expect your every need to be met. Expect the answer to every problem, expect abundance on every level. – Eileen Caddy This week, we are visited by a card that has only appeared once before, and that was back in 2006. The Ace of Pentacles represents the power of the Earth, for the Pentacle is [...]

Take the initiative. Go to work, and above all co-operate and don’t hold back on one another or try to gain at the expense of another. Any success in such lopsidedness will be increasingly short-lived. These are the synergetic rules that evolution is employing and trying to make clear to us. They are not man-made [...]

What we need is more people who specialize in the impossible. – Theodore Roethke Appearing during the last Full Moon (that powerful lunar eclipse on New Year’s eve), now, on this week’s first Full Moon of the year and decade, we come back again to the same card – the Three of Pentacles. Connected closely [...]
