Blessed Earth Day, everyone.  Some time ago, I designed a tarot layout to use with the stunning Gaian Tarot, a nature-honouring deck by my marvellous friend Joanna Powell Colbert (www.gaiantarot.com).  It contains four questions.  You can find the layout here:

Use the questions in any way you wish — for journal writing, council circle discussion, conversations with friends, or divination with tarot cards, runes, crone stones, medicine cards, i ching, or whatever connects you with Wisdom.  When you’ve heard Wisdom’s responses, what might you do for our beautiful, aching planet?

How might one celebrate Earth Day besides doing the above reading?  Go for a walk outside and take a deep, deep breath.  Admire a big, old tree.  Plant something in your garden.  Unplug appliances that aren’t used very often.  Donate money to help save a forest or an animal species.  Write a poem.  Jot down 10 things in nature for which you’re grateful.  Whatever is joyful and honours Life is a good celebration of Earth Day
