What a great Oracle deck. One of the ways that art helps me to survive is the fact that we create it in all circumstances. History shows us that no matter what, art is as vital to human beings as air, water, food and shelter because it is found everywhere there are, or have been, people. That alone restores my faith in humanity. On a more personal specific level, I escape into the fiction of Seanan McGuire, Richard K. Morgan and Ilona Andrews, carbonate my soul with the poetry of Sandra Cisneros and the music of Tom Waits, I am grounded into my humility and humanity by the plays of Sam Shepard, Paula Vogel and John Patrick Shanley and I make peace with my darker angels with the paintings of Vincent van Gogh and the photography of Frank Relle. Art in all it forms comforts me and demands my conscious presence in my life.
