Following up on my angsty thread, I'm putting up an open one-card draw thread with the Medicine Cards. These cards help you connect with the animal energies around you and the lessons they have for you

Your card is Coyote. Coyote comes into your life to remind you of the power of laughter and fun. It is important to laugh at yourself, to not take yourself too seriously right now. However, Coyote also reminds you to look at areas that you may be deceiving yourself or sabotaging yourself. The nature of Trickster energy is that it is two-sided in this way: Coyote encourages you to find the silliness in the world, to play, but also to beware of tricking yourself. You may be called upon to lighten up tense situations at this time -- use Coyote's energy to help you break the tension with a joke, point out the absurdity in the situation, or otherwise get people to pull the stick out of their asses. You may be confronted with leaders or teachers who take themselves Very Seriously or purport to know it all or be all-powerful -- your role in this situation will be to take the wind out of their sails with a well-timed does of Trickster energy. This is never mean-spirited -- it is a sacred duty and is done for the good of the group. (And Coyote reminds you not to be the one who gets their sails too filled with ego, too...he's an equal-opportunity bubble-burster!)
