This FROG jumps from the pond, to the lily pad, to the stone, to the frying pan, and then into the fire. The reference to “animal magnetism” and the two Indian quotes call to mind the Native American practice of raising totem poles as symbols of kinship and profound spiritual encounters. I see a hazy outline of a future (mesmerizing?) exercise that includes tarotpsych readings interpreted as totems – which is sort of the way I tend to interpret the last 4 cards in the Celtic Cross spread, anyway. Animals often serve as important gateway/guides/catalysts for healing with people and situations that might otherwise be unapproachable, such as with autistic children… (TP Member: kkvls) See Archives for whole frog:
