hmm...I suppose I must ponder a policy for multiples. But I can do that later. I know that you are currently out of a job, and for today, I'm happy to draw a card for each of you.
For T: From my combined Susan Seddon Boulet Animal Spirits and Goddesses Art Cards: For you I drew the Lion. The image is of a male lion in a circle, with the four points notated, so it forms a sacred circle, or a mandala. The lion looks directly at you. He is depicted in browns and golds, and the card as a whole is in colors ranging from gold though orange to light and dark browns. The Lion symbolizes courage, strength, healing, protection and life energy. He is a powerful guide, if you need one, or perhaps he is merely providing you some liminal space and time to heal and meditate.
For Craimar: From the same deck: The first thing I notice is a very similar color palate, but more orange and less brown. This is Coyote, drawn with her head in front of the sun, a robe around her shoulders. We know that this Coyote is female because this painting is titled Coyote Woman Waits. This painting was made to illustrate an Ursula K LeGuin story called, Buffalo Gals Won't You Come Out Tonight. Coyote is a benevolent trickster who (intentionally or unintentionally) helps to restore balance and order. Sometimes Coyote behaves foolishly that we may learn wisdom; other times Coyote follows a wise course, tricking the bad guys and coming out ahead. As a guide, I think Coyote would make life interesting, at the very least.
