Welcome back!

Your poem is beautiful.

I look forward to seeing what an animated card will look like. I can’t quite visualize it so I’ll wait patiently for where you lead us.

Wow. There is so much richness here to walk with, thank you Lisette for the context and observation of 'quaility of time' ✨🕯️🙏💛

I'll echo echo echo Joy when I say your poem is beautiful. "...by the shape of the space between us shifting" is my favorite line, so I'm glad it's there twice! I'm reminded of what Maui says to Moana about navigation—"Wayfinding...Knowing where you are by knowing where you've been." Also been thinking a lot about movement, and creating perpetual social movements.

Perpetual movements-- yes, yes. Thinking of complementary forces that propel perpetuation. Orbits, pushing and pulling, ebbing and flowing, equal and opposites.

Also, I did the first part of the prompt, and wanted to share some highlights. I'll think about the central theme for the card when I'm fresh! The word ploppage was mostly associative — related ones would often appear in rapid succession, or the relationships of words in sequence would emerge later. Here are some of interest:

1) "pressure" then "in my head" then "out of my head"

2) "adventure" then "voyage" then "volleyball" [lol, maybe it's about the 'v's]

3) "pushin' it" then "pushing others" then "exposure" then "the edge"

4) "alone" then "together"

5) "ebb and flow" then "absurdity"

6) "movement" then "inspiration" then "vision train" then "artists" then "rekindle" then "empowerment" [I like this flow thematically]

7) "certainty...isn't"

Ah! I see a lot of orbits here, too! (And a lot of lovely alliteration )🪐 “certainty....isn’t”: quote of the day

Peregrinate.

PEREGRINATE! What a gorgeous evocative word!

Admittedly, I'd only known of the bird, not the word. Just looked it up—what's interesting is how the word refers to traveling on foot, yet the bird is the fastest animal in the air (and faster than any on land or in the water). Thank you for sharing!

The title of the card I came up with after writing on the prompt ...: THE ALL-SEEING EYE. 👁️ this was in response to recurring themes on information as currency and ever-present surveillance states.

Thank you, as always, for your potent food for thought! 🌀🙏💓

Yesssssssssssssss! Oof, that's a great one, Cori. As I've been sifting through the OG oracle deck we made in the fall, I've noticed eyes in a few places... THE ALL-SEEING EYE is a great symbol to think about!
