ACE OF OYSTERS

The waters of the Delta offer up a tasty raw oyster on a half shell, seasoned by the ancient waters of its home and the power of the unseen. It may seem a slimy, daunting thing to consume, but its taste is a great and hidden pleasure. Will you be bold enough to try it? Upright, like all Aces, this card welcomes you embrace a new beginning. You’ve started on a new emotional journey! You should be excited! This could be a new romance blooming between you and someone with whom you deeply connect. Perhaps you’ve made an amazing friend that really gets you as a person and fosters your creativity. You’ve got an overflow of positive emotional energy and it’s awesome. But how will you use it?  Your exuberance may be just what you need to ignite new creative endeavors. Start that short story! Print that zine!

Reversed: Too big an oyster, and it may be hard to get down. While it is important to take time to examine your own feelings, dwelling too much on them can leave you drained or unable to move forward. This can occur easily following a period of loss. Exerting too much emotional energy on that recent breakup or dwelling on the death of a loved one may be hindering you from entering a period of healing. Likewise, holding everything back until you explode can also be harmful right now. Now is the time for self-care and reflection before moving forward.
