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?

1.  Mother of Swords in the South/Queen of SwordsID #675017

Goddess Nut arches her body
across the dome of the sky
a mesh of golden stars
sprinkle pale cold light on sand
and I taste it's coppery sting on my tongue.

Stone crabs scuttle at the dark of the moon
dancing on a muddied Gulf floor
to a soughing northwest wind.

There is an echo
in my bones tonight
a reverberation
to a cold, crystal singing bowl.

I do and I hear
and I celebrate
with a calendar
of jubilant female saints.
