The Mystery

Yesterday one of those tarot "coincidences" occurred which I just have to tell you about! The "Card of the Day" for my Facebook page was The Moon, and after I'd posted it, I noticed it was also another Facebook poster's card of the day too. Ok, no biggie - coincidence, right? But then, later in the evening, I read a posting on one of the tarot group pages that this person had been walking in a city park and sat down on a bench and lo and behold, lying on the ground to the side was The Moon card from a tarot deck. Just that card! He was wondering what the significance could be, as he wasn't too familiar with the meaning. Of course I chimed in, along with a few others, and told him it was the card of the day for my page and another's and it fit right in with everything as the card of mystery, intrigue, intuition, emotions, the unconscious, dreams and manifestation. I told him to be on the lookout for coincidences, gut feelings, unexpected reactions or that of others and prepared that something may about to be revealed in a situation.
Later, as I was about the fall asleep, I happened to glance at my digital clock and it was exactly 11:11; the previous evening just before sleep it was 12:12. Now this has happened before; in fact, some years ago it was happening very frequently, but then it stopped for the most part. I take this to be a sign of the mystery at work, The Moon a reminder to all that very often things are not what they seem and there are depths and layers yet to be discovered. It is a reminder not to take things, life, others, at face value lest we miss the meaningful currents that flow through our lives. That we can never know everything. That in the end, it is all a mystery.
