Four of Cups (Burdock)

I promised to share more images of the Herbal Tarot. This deck is more charming than beautiful. This is the card I drew randomly to meditate on this morning: Four of Cups (Burdock). Interestingly, it also turned up in the Celtic cross I dealt yesterday. A classical meaning of the card is boredom. To me it speaks about daydreams and hidden emotions. In the present context, it reminds me quite eloquently of the necessity of turning ideas into story proposals and pitching them to editors, rather than just letting them float around in my head. I don't know why I should be focusing on this on my day off, as Danny and I are heading into Toronto to see Tafelmusik perform Mozart's Requiem tonight. Maybe it's a reminder to keep my mind open for story material.

(Edit: I don't know enough about the meaning of burdock to reflect on that for now.)
