How to Read the Tarot

Begin by brewing a cup of tea,
a nervine, lemon balm or chamomile,
this is after all, your future.
A reading at the dark of the moon is best,
before the night creatures crawl
and bad humours fill the air.
Pick a circular deck, with a fairy-tale motif,
and no reversals.
Hold a question in your heart,
shuffle the cards and place them on the table.
Choose only two.
Like the ancient Israelites,
these are your seer stones, Urim and Thumimm,
black and white, yes or no.
Isn't that all you were asking?

Patchouli

Patchouli perfume takes me back
to a time when there was no lack
and all was open in my heart.
Only peace and love could emerge,
harmony at the very verge
of sundering my world apart.
I had a flash of that again
surrendering all of my pain.
This old hippie again unblocked.

Author's Note: Patchouli was a favorite scent of flower children in the 60's and 70's.

Oracle of the Essences---Patchouli--I am one with the earth. I am one with my body.
