Pandora

Curiosity

Temptation calls to peer through locks.

Read someone’s mail, open a box.

Curiosity killed the cat;

avoid a consequence like that.

By the power of the Dark Goddess in me,

protection in place. Blessed Be.

Guidance

You could be in the process of making a huge mistake if you go ahead. Pause for a minute and take a good look at what it is you are about to undertake. You must dig deeper and investigate thoroughly before you make a decision. Look to see what the outcome could be and what effects it could have on others, on you, and also your future. You are gifted and talented with abilities, and many opportunities have already and will continue to be presented to you. Sometimes, though, you see your gifts as a curse, rather like Pandora. Expectations from others and of yourself are hard to live up to, yet your ambitions propel you further and higher. You would be wise to heed the warnings of Pandora, who wishes you not to become a victim to temptation as she once did. So with hope in your heart, keep the lid firmly closed on tempting offers at this time, before looking at your options.

Foresight

Make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into. Don’t be sidelined by curiosity. Hope will pull you through. Face up to the consequences of your actions. Investigate an offer that seems too good to be true. A surprise gift will arrive. Use your gifts and talents wisely.

Pandora Revealed

Archetypal “gifted one” of Greek origin and created by the gods as the first mortal woman, she was “gifted” with many objects and talents, including a box. Though she released the lid and unleashed all sorts of disease, plague, and misery upon the world, Pandora got the lid back on just in time to save hope, but the cycle of death and rebirth had already been established on earth.
