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?

Ecclesia

Toss the robes and incense
forget the aves and amens,
give me a feral church
an ecclesia of black madonna mad womyn.
Our vestments are seaweed
our liturgy whale song
our commandments guided drift.
We will pilgrimage
to Saintes-Maries-de-LaMer
and place St. SaraKali on our dashboards.
We will honor all water divinities
in exultations of song and dance.
Water is life.
Water is life.

14 lines

Prompt: a woman lying face up by the seashore.

Gaian Tarot--Guardian of Water--trust your dreams and intuition

Author's Note--the Feast of SaraKali is May 24.
