The Badger
Fortune Cookie: Get down to what’s REALLY important; dig in to push that effort along. Pay very close attention to defining healthy boundaries as YOU perceive and need them. Then maintain and defend those boundaries fully.
Okay. Once again, prithee: No side (or snide) remarks about haranguing the Tarot reader, or badgering the old badger, please. As I said before, this is MY blog, and that kind of lame drivel is… MINE! And I own it. Especially on a Sunday. So don’t press my luck. Don’t… Umm… Oh well.
We last saw this guy in January. I was just thinking, based on what I’ve been seeing with clients, it was time for him to turn up again.
Typical readers might say something along the line that this card implies focused application, study or reflection. They’d say, ummmmm… if you really concentrate on what’s important to you, right about now you’re in a position to achieve extraordinary results. The implication is that you MUST put something extra in if you wish to get out what you really want. So figure out what that’s about for you and go after it!
Anna-Marie Ferguson, creator of the Legend deck, finds the card betokens such things as a tenacious, reliable person and a hunger for knowledge, among other interpretations.
In working with my clients, [and having encountered a badger just once in a meadow, and he was a MOODY little blighter] this is what I usually say when this card turns up:
I truly love badger. Badger really gets down to it and digs in to get things done. Badger prefers to be peaceable, a homebody of sorts who attends to the things that are necessary, the things that are important within the bounds of his or her own little kingdom.
And if you ever cross into badger’s territory without his or her express permission, there is no anger, no fuss. Badger will simply tear off your leg, leave you in a heap and go on about business, easy-peasy-comfy-cozy.
So I suggest that my clients understand badger as a pretty useful role model where defining and holding boundaries may be concerned, especially in our culture. I haven’t ever had anyone NOT understand the importance of that. Nor comment that boundaries really weren’t an issue in their life, thanks.
So, for today:
~ Focus and study well, if you perceive that’s what’s in order.
~ Get down to what’s REALLY important; dig in to push that effort along.
~ Pay very close attention to defining healthy boundaries as YOU perceive and need them.
Then maintain and defend those boundaries fully for the highest and best of all.
Bright blessings!
