Get over yourself

Daily Draw: Wizards Tarot, Eight of Wands

Have I set hearts aflame with the desire to learn or just fired off eight (600) broomsticks before their riders could saddle up? Don't know yet. Clouds around the academy indicate unsettled conditions but the moon reminds me it is the evening and while my thoughts are still on my learners they are probably not thinking of me right now. As a young person would say 'get over yourself'. 

In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.

Phil Collins, 1951-

  1. This reminds me of sleepless nights, obsessing about my students...☺

    1. after my early evening obsessing I was up at 3am working on my to do list....but glad I did it action better than ruminating we'll never truly know exactly what they think of us and how each individual learns.

  4. Interesting that these seem to be headed up rather than down (as in the RWS version).

    1. I didn't notice that. Thanks. Maybe why I was thinking of my communication to others rather than their communication to me. From now on I am going to pay more attention to directions of things in the cards. I've done this before looking at where fingers and toes a pointing but not the 'inanimate' objects.
