Refugee Barges - The Word Cloud Tarot Show - 07 Aug 2023

This week the #uk government started moving
#refugee applicants from hotels onto a #barge
floating in the sea.

@pre@boing.world does a five minute tarot reading
and finds that the refugees are grateful
to have escaped, and have much potential to offer
society. But mean-spirited sullen idiots are jealous,
so punish them with a purgatory of bureaucracy and confinement
instead of accepting their valuable contributions.

Luckily, the cards say this time must pass,
that the more humane majority of society will
eventually end this madness.

### Past - 4 Of Cups, Luxury

The word _hotel_ is on this card,
so it must be talking about the
comparative _luxury_ of the hotels
But note that these _villa_
are full of _weariness_
and _morose_ _tedium_.

There is _aimlessness_ and
_hopelessness_ because of the
_passivity_ and _boredom_ of living in this _sad_ purgatory,
awaiting processing
maybe for years.

A life banned from work or activity may
look _luxurious_, but it is _tedious_ and
filled with _ennui_

### Hidden Influence - 10 Of Cups, Satiety

All they really _desire_ is _contentment_.
They are thankful for the nation's kindness,
they want to working for earnings.
to achieve _prosperity_, _stability_, to contribute to
society for rewards, like anyone else.

### External Influence - 11 Of Cups, Page

This card shows how much they have to contribute,
They are _ingenious_ and _enthusiastic_,
_youthful_ and _insightful_
and _articulate_.

They are the ones that managed to escape,
travel across the globe.
They have the _potential_ to
contribute their _creativity_
and _cleverness_
towards our country's needs.

### Present - 12 Of Wands, Knight

But there's a small segment of the population
who have political power right now,
_Naive_ and _inconsiderate_ and _sullen_.
They're _insatiable_ and _irritable_.
They are _jealous_ and _impulsive_,
_infatuated_ with the simple but _reckless_
miss-understanding.

Their _envy_ makes them mistake purgatory for luxury.

### Outcome - 12 Of Pentacles, Knight

This time will pass though,
there will one day be a
_pious_ and _altruistic_
_successful_ _teacher_,
who is _resourceful_ and _accepting_.
_Magnanimous_, _determined_ and _able_,
who can bring about a change in _consciousness_,
to a more _benevolent_ and _generous_ society.

### Summary

The refugees have much to give:
They are grateful to have escaped,
and offer loyalty in return for happiness

They have great potential, youth,
hard work, resourcefulness.

But they are stuck in monotonous purgatory,
unable to work or contribute or do much other
than sit about waiting to be processed.

Because petty mean-spirited jealousy drives a section of
the population who have the balance of power right now,
and so the refugees are mistreated in
inconsiderate and obsessive ways.

They think that the refugees are in luxury,
rather than in purgatory, and so are
determined to make their life harder,
punishing them instead of accepting their contributions.

But, this time will pass.
There will eventually be a rise
of the magnanimous and altruistic
part of our society,

It might be a while yet though,
this does not sound like Starmer eh?
