Judgement, Mystical Cats Tarot

"Cats do not feel shame. [...] We learn from our mistakes and grow in wisdom throughout out lives"

Whatever we 'feel bad' about, the universe is giving us a 'pat (paw) on the shoulder'.
We're doing our best. To our current knowledge, experience and capacity. That's all we can do!
Whatever 'setback' we're experience - that's how life is.
Ups and downs. Deaths and rebirths. 
It might feel like a circle, but it's actually a spiral.
The direction of the spiral (up or down) depends on our 'attitude'. 
On 'how we judge things' (XX is traditionally called Judgement).
And maybe even more - how we judge ourselves.
Or, whether we judge, or not.
How quickly we can let go of the (habitual) need to judge and come to self-acceptance.
How quickly we can forgive ourselves for our 'failures' and 'shortcomings', and embrace that fact that they come with the greatest lessons and possibilities to learn and grow.
Which will happen as long as we 'do better when we know better'!
It's not enough to just know better.
And it's not a solution to plainly avoid the discomfort of the eventual mistake - or project the blame onto another!

"Lick your paws clean and move forward with a lighter heart"

How can we then extend our newfound capacity for forgiveness into the world around us?
The world would truly benefit from less judgment and more forgiveness!
As always - it starts with(in) ourselves!
And how we then model it in our daily life, with integrity.
