Tarot Major Arcana: The Empress

The urge to know never really goes

however 'knowing' 

can get a little tricky

especially 

when everything

around is un-moving

yet always growing, ageing..

Getting to know the illuminated

is quite different from 

getting to know that's what obscure 

as different as knowing 

a full grown tree versus 

a seed buried under

what varies is the degree of potential..

Potential highlighted above ground

fruits of abundance ready for harvest 

on it's way to a dark warehouse..

versus 

Potential sown under ground

a seed of abundance bound to grow 

towards the light on it's own..

Abundance is ever present

radiant in the sunlight

but more so in the shadows

waiting to be discovered 

and known!
