Please join me in giving a warm Arcana & Insight welcome to three new members! @Maria Zank from Montreal, Canada, joins us with a heart devoted to family and community and a beautiful project called Library of Soul Wisdom, an evolving sanctuary for reflection and self-discovery. Maria, what first inspired your Library of Soul Wisdom, and what are you hoping to discover or deepen through Arcana & Insight? @Anne Iglesias is here to help people embody their Human Design and lead with greater clarity and trust. Anne, what first drew you to Human Design, and is there a particular topic, deck, or area of symbolism you especially love exploring? @Chris Earl brings together art, caregiving, wabi-sabi, urban decay, asemic writing, and both ancient and modern wisdom. What a fascinating combination! I would love to know, does your spiritual practice influence your artwork, and are there any symbols, decks, or traditions that particularly inspire you? Also, I feel we need to talk about asemic writing as I have not heard of that until you joined! Everyone, please say hello and help make Maria, Anne, and Chris feel at home. Whether you are a Tarot lover, symbol collector, spiritual explorer, or simply spiritually curious, you are part of this growing community and we welcome your ideas, feedback and energy!

I just found myself reading something Lee wrote about the Fool card. And I found myself falling in love with the Fool. Adoring his innocence and zest for life and so much more. Of course, this is probably really a moment of falling in love with the Fool in me. I'd love to know what you all have experienced along these lines.

From a mystic's perspective, it doesn't serve anyone, least of all ourselves, to cling to the riverbanks (and to our beliefs about how things should be, and to the need to be right). Allowing the current to take us to a new place is easier, less fatiguing, and more elevating and freeing. I'm wondering which tarot card might express this message. I'm sensing the Hierophant could, because he tends to be traditional. In an intuitive reading where I'm allowing myself all the freedom in the cosmos, I might say the Hermit is, especially if the picture shows him standing in cold snow, getting stuck in a perspective, for all maps are small. And I'm wondering if the tower is ultimately asking us to let go of the riverbanks. But I've never read in books or had any formal education. I'd be delighted to get other perspectives.

This Friday, May 29, we’re switching things up! Instead of the usual meet and greet, I’ll be offering free mini Tarot readings live on stream. Bring your questions, your curiosity, and of course, your wonderful energy, and let’s spend the evening connecting through the cards together. Free Reading Friday 16:00 UK time https://www.skool.com/live/xy8sTSHlPcQ

For me, Arcana is the system, such as the symbols, the structure, the knowledge we can learn. Insight is the feeling, the intuition, the perception, the meaning we sense beneath the surface. Together, they create something deeper. How would you define Arcana and Insight in your own words?
