Description
The Oracle The Wisdom of TAO by Mei Jin Lu consists of 2 volumes: Volume I – Awakenings and Volume II – Strategy.
Volume I is subdivided into three parts: the largest of the three is Spiritual Guidance, with 22 cards such as New Beginnings, Manifestation, Master, Justice, Transformation, Surrender, Longevity, etc. These cards are rooted in Taoist philosophy.
Then there are the Wu Xing elemental cards, a total of 11 cards, two for each of the five phases of change plus an eleventh card, “Balanced Elements.” There are references to deities from the Taoist pantheon, such as Cai Shen, the God of Wealth, associated with the Metal element, Kuan Yin for Compassion, or Xi Wang Mu for Abundance.
The cards in this oracle illustrate Taoist philosophy in what is presented as “for the first time, a visionary system, incorporating teachings of Taoist masters, the power of the elements of nature, the revelations of the animals of the zodiac, and the dynamic interactions between them.”
There are also historical or legendary figures represented, such as Diao Chan, one of the four legendary beauties of ancient China, or the poet Tao Yuanming. After the two sections Spiritual Guidance and the Elements is the third, the Zodiac, with the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. The Rat is symbolic of Focus, the Ox of Grounding, and the Tiger is Confidence. If you want to know more about the associations for each animal of the Zodiac, this guide offers a really comprehensive yet concise presentation of the Chinese horoscopes.
The Wisdom of the Tao Oraculo system “was conceived with the desire to continue the work of the sages,” and in particular, that of Lao Zi, “the enigmatic teacher and founder of the Tao.” This contemporary Taoist divination system “was inspired by ancient tarot mysticism, culture, philosophy, history, and interpersonal psychology.
Taoism is an ancient philosophy that emphasizes the attainment of wisdom and harmony as a path to success. Throughout history it has provided guidance from personal challenges to important sovereign decisions. Taoist wisdom is now easily accessible to gain insight, devise strategies, and provide a glimpse of future changes. Consult the cards when faced with roadblocks, or choose a card to inspire and empower you. The Wisdom of the Tao is complete with detailed oracles, vivid images and symbols, clear instructions, and fascinating stories of the ancient teachers and personalities chosen to guide us.
The three-level subdivision helps you determine which area of life you need to focus on right now. If in a multi-dissemination reading you find that deities and sages are dominant, then your situation calls for spiritual development or a search for your life’s purpose. What you seek is above the worldly world. If you are receiving majority elemental letters, they reveal the nature or theme of the issue at hand. Animal zodiac cards give you action plans and direct solutions.
