Ramalina petrina

Appalachian trail lichen

In the midst of my academia-induced woes, I often dream of being one of those people who gives up everything to rediscover myself by walking a Camino, or climbing a mountain, or hiking along the Appalachian trail, but then those damned lichens always pull me back in. But it is nice to know that even if I decide to do any of those things, there will still be lichens like R. petrina along the way. You just can't escape these little guys--a thought as reassuring as it is mildly threatening.

The ‘Churning Water’ tarot spread is simple yet helpful for figuring out situations where you feel like you’re stuck in a tough situation, almost like you’re treading water during a storm.

1. Hidden Current - What do you need to know about the situation? What's something 'hidden' or unknown that is affecting it?

2. Life Preserver - What do you need to do in order to stay afloat? What can help with the situation?

3. Wait it Out - What is the outcome of the situation if you do nothing?
