Your Card

STAYING GROUNDED

If this answer describes the future, think carefully about what you are building in the present – it is about wild emotion and immature impulses, and it is probably best to question yourself about what is happening now, rather than risk losing your balance later. If this points to the future, then try to be grounded – now.

Pay particular attention to the people and circumstances around you. If you know for a fact that there is unstable energy in the atmosphere (it may be where you are, it may be the personalities of those nearby) then take care. At best, you will need to stay grounded because of minor craziness. At worst, chaos may ensue. If this answer describes the past or present then you will probably know exactly who or what is in the picture. There is a kind of eternal adolescent in all of us, but this answer points to a very specific chapter of silly, attention-seeking, disruptive behaviour. Perhaps you were vulnerable to it. Perhaps others were.

This Oracle answer is about more than personality flaws or ‘Look at me’ behaviour, though. It also talks about uncontained and uncontrollable atmospheres, and energetic disturbance. Sometimes particular pubs or parties transmit this kind of vibration. Sometimes you’ll find it on a busy street.

All of this makes people vulnerable to childish and egotistical behaviour. Think of the most difficult teenager you ever knew and add a dose of crazy chemistry to the mix – you’ll be pretty close. All the more reason to use your common sense. Avoid people who obviously fit this description – including internet pranksters.

If there is anything inside you which you know very well is foolish – and a little mad – then be especially careful with drugs or alcohol, which are unlikely to help. Pay special attention to anything which affects the psychic atmosphere too. Ouija boards would be a good example of this. As would witchcraft and magic.
