Equal Ground Spread & Poem
So, I'm a weird one. ๐Ÿ˜‚
I've been a writer my whole life; it's something that really defines in a lot of ways. Poetry is really close to my heart, and last year I wrote one that still speaks volumes for me. Some months ago, I created a tarot spread based on the poem itself. It came out pretty interesting, so I thought I'd share.
Equal Ground
I've seen strange omens, obscured shapes stark and harsh;
Shadows, out of reach, slinking edges of the marsh.
Oddly homey, low, wet lands that offer little purchase,
With withered trees and skittering things littering every surface.
Here's both a sense of longing, and belonging.
Though, I, with some surprise, trust my senses not to wrong me.
Steeled with words of wiser ones, unwavering in character,
I sink into untended soil, stand on shifting earth,
Writhe and wade, swaying on my wayward legs between directions,
Leaving signs that I have been, little more than impressions.
I heave, and leave my ripples in even time and measure,
Follow them to shores they lick in a bit of gentle gesture.
I climb and clamor, cutting mountains down to manageable height,
Raising hills to match horizons, opening my line of sight.
With each and every stumbling step, I bend, and brace for landing;
But any ground is equal ground, as long as I am standing.
Spread:
1. Strange Omens - What signs or synchronicities are trying to guide me?
2. Shadows At The Edge - What fear or uncertainty is just out of view?
3. Longing And Belonging - What part of the unknown actually holds comfort for me?
4. Wayward Legs - Where am I stumbling, and what lesson lies in the misstep?
5. Leaving Ripples - How am I impacting the world around me, even if subtly?
6. Cutting Mountains - What am I removing or redefining to find clarity?
7. Raising Hills - What am I growing or integrating to gain control?
8. Equal Ground - Where can I stand firm, no matter what shifts around me?
