Gosh did not even see. How upsetting.
Not able make words except in bursts. Bad night. Apologies to Milton + to little rats and mouses.
Seems to be a theme of accidental poisoning because of purposeful poisoning.

Today's Card
Ace of Earth ~ Gaia (Reversed)
Greek Goddess of the Earth
The earth gives birth to giants. Time to grow.
Inseparable from her element, Gaia rises from the earth. She eyes the sky and holds up her hands to bless the children around her. Arising from primeval Chaos, the earth of the ancient Greeks is a disk topped by the dome of heaven with the pit of Tartaros below, and the seas and mountains upon her breast.
Gaia is the Mother of All, for everything in nature comes from her flesh, whether animal, tree, or rock. She is the mother of the gods as well. They descend from her union with another elemental from the dawn of creation, Ouranos, the sky above. Gaia is fertility, and cannot help but bring forth children. She is nature, and cannot help but desire life for them.
It is this last, her having primary loyalty to her children over her mate, that causes conflict with the heavenly gods. Ouranos, in his fear of being supplanted, imprisons several of her children within her womb, causing her extreme pain. After she helps her son Kronos overthrow Ouranos for his oppression, the son betrays her and does the same as the father. She helps another son step up, Zeus, who releases the Titans from her body but confines them to Tartaros in his fear of their strength. Gaia then mates with Tartaros and produces tribes of terrible giants and monsters. These children rise to fight against the upstart and his friends. Gaia supports and bears them all. She does not stop providing life, no matter the circumstances.
Thereafter the young gods name themselves Olympians and claim all powers as their own. But no one, immortal or not, can control or be apart from Gaia’s primal being. She provides the place, the means, and the power for all earthly life to happen. As she alone knows all that takes place upon her body, it is she who whispers deep wisdom to the ancient oracles.
When Gaia appears:
Seek Gaia’s wisdom in nature. Hold stones in your hands. Listen to the stirring of leaves and the play of water. Watch the flight of birds. Go to sacred places. If she does not answer in a pertinent or meaningful way, you may need a different question or approach. You may need to give it time. When you practice, you learn what works.
Embracing your life is not a one-time task. For best results, keep your arms open and keep going. Be brave enough to work on your big dream.
Make a vow to make manifest the next idea that contains a seed of something good. It doesn’t have to be the greatest or only idea you will ever have. Show you are serious about making things happen, and they will.
Honor the source of your resources. Work to strengthen and repair your connections and relationships where necessary. Without access to resources, you cannot get anywhere.

Deck: The Shining Tribe Tarot
Spread: Card of the Day
Date: Sat Jan 26 13:42:14 EST 2019
Today's Card
4 of Trees (Reversed)
Shelter us, cool us.
Lift us, conceal us.
Parades of bright color,
a sky of green leaves.
The fours are about structure, while the suit of Trees shows us the fire of the sun rooted in growing things. Together they give us the idea of life energy given form while still growing and vibrant. This is a card that celebrates the simple gifts of nature and home. The picture is balanced, even serene, without being static. We see a house sheltered by two overarching trees. The energy is not outside the house, with a separation between our structured lives in society and the vibrancy of nature. Instead, two smaller trees grow within the frame of the house itself. The card shows a time in which our lives have form and yet remain free and joyous, with many possibilities.
A sun shines over the doorway, as if to bless the house with life. The sun has eight rays, reminiscent of the eight-rayed Star in trump 17 as well as trump 8, Strength, and the eight-sided geometric form called an octagon. Symbolic tradition considers the octagon halfway between the circle of spiritual perfection and the square of material form. Like the square, the number four suggests matter and physical reality as well as structure, while fire belongs to the sun and is often considered the element that links us to Spirit. The eight-rayed sun over the door symbolizes divine energy taking form in our lives. The door itself is red, for the animal life that joins with the green of the leaves and the lush hillside. The knobs on the door are golden, the color of the sun and spiritual wisdom.
The Four of Trees is the first of the completely new cards done for Shining Tribe. The only remnant from the original Four of Trees (in the Shining Woman Tarot) is the grain that grows at the bottom of the picture, between the two trees, reaching up to the level of the door. This grain, which we also find on the Star card as a symbol of Persephone and the constant hope of renewal in spring, represents first of all the simple miracle of food. We take for granted (especially those of us who live in modern cities, where the supermarkets always carry plentiful food) that the earth grows what we need to keep us alive and that the sun pours down its warmth, which the plants transform into their own cell structure so that food will grow that we can take into our homes and our bodies. Just because it happens all the time, each spring and summer, does not make it any less a miracle, any less a gift.
Divinatory meanings: Joy, life's simple pleasures, a happy home. Abundance without excess. A life that is structured and organized, but in a simple way, so that the person feels able to breathe and appreciate the world and its beauty. Appreciation of the many simple gifts (and miracles) that give meaning and spiritual structure to our lives.
Reversed: The serenity and vibrancy remain, but may not be so apparent to the person. The person may need to open his or her eyes to the wonders of life that exist in the present situation. Alternatively, the doors may be opening; that is, a situation that has become overly structured may be making room for new possibilities.
