Good story.

Meaning? Perhaps: "Bad things can happen to-and-around people who think of
themselves as bad."

Other meanings... Getting attached to good outcomes is NOT the same as
caring about people. Caring about people will tempt you to be attached to
good outcomes, but once your (very real) caring switched to wanting
control, you lost a quality that had been helping things.

Threatening to call the cops (or anything like that) is a self-defeating
way to stop anyone's self-destructive behavior. Given that they're already
self-destructive (and afraid of their inability to control themselves), it
tends to make them want to "get it over with already. Go ahead, see if I
care etc."

One thought about why Jesus was a healer... He saw people as they were, and
didn't blame them for it. Then, "what they were" was free to become
something else.

If you should have another occasion for doing divination, there are
advantages to the I Ching... a very ethical philosophy underlying &
informing the output, but less dualistic than the worldview that built the
Tarot, which was probably "Christian in the bad sense,"--ie not getting
past the so-called "Knowledge of Good & Evil," just projecting that onto Jesus.

Oh well. What do you think?
