Here’s another excellent card reading tutorial from Donnaleigh de LaRose.
This one examines the importance of ‘bringing it back to the question’ when interpreting Tarot or Lenormand cards.
Donnaleigh uses a Lenormand deck in the video, but you can do the same exercises using your Tarot deck.
Get out your cards, and give it a try …

Are you having a hard time making a decision, maybe trouble moving forward? Are you blaming yourself and everybody else for your emotional problems?
It might be a little confusing right now but don’t give up. Try to pull yourself together and start making some choices.
Don’t waste your time worrying about what anyone else is doing. Concentrate instead on getting a grip on yourself.
What do you really want next? Think about it clearly and with as much focus as you can muster. Once you finally choose, it’s going to be a lot easier.
Wallowing in misery or hiding in whatever escape you feel most comfortable in won’t help for much longer. In fact, it’s likely to bring you down instead.
Pull up those boot straps and decide what’s next. The only real way to feel better is to start taking action. There’s lot’s to do, get going!

High Priestess as the Chariot
The Moon moves into Cancer today, and stays there until Tuesday.
Looking at this transit through the lens of the Tarot, you might describe it as the High Priestess dressed in the clothing of the Charioteer. She’s left the safety of her pillars and veil, and has hit the road.
The Moon in Cancer, or the High Priestess dressed as the Charioteer, can be a powerful time of comfortable change and emotional resilience.
Knowledge gathered in silence has coalesced and it’s time to share without fear of being hurt.
Emotional loyalty, intuitive direction and strength of character can give you the resolve to go forward. Even into the unknown.
Try not to coddle yourself. You can only win if you have the courage to play to the end.

#0 – The Fool
This is a great day to take the leap and do something different. It might seem crazy and you have no idea how it’s going to turn out, or maybe even how you got on this path in the first place, but here you are. It’s time to make your move and do so without fear.
The Fool card isn’t telling you to be an idiot, but rather to stop double thinking yourself all the time and worrying that every single thing is in order before you can make a move.
Life isn’t really that logical. There’s no way to prepare for all eventualities, no matter how smart you are. Do what you can and let the universe take care of the bigger story.

It’s a day of dynamic action. You know what you want to do, you know what you need to do and you probably know how to do it. Just go ahead and make it happen. Your mind’s working overtime and at lightning speed. Flow with this powerful energy and charge towards you goals.
You might find it difficult to focus on just one issue. Two or three different ideas or projects are dragging you every which way. Don’t worry. Do what you can and focus on what’s in front of you when it’s in front of you. Reign your mind in. One thing at a time and it will all get done.
And as always – remember to play nice.

High Priestess as the Lovers’ Angel
The Moon moves into Gemini today and will stay there until Saturday.
From a Tarot perspective, this transit would be like the High Priestess is dressed as the Lovers’ Angel. She floats above the naked couple, blessing their sacred union.
The Moon in Gemini, or High Priestess dressed as the Lovers’ angel, can be an emotionally confusing time, one where internal conflicts arise in order to be reconciled.
But it can also be a time of clarity, honest communication and almost intuitive understanding about yourself and those around you.
Quiet faith teams up with commitment and the Angels approve of the whole thing.
Try to keep your emotions in line with your reason. Going too far either way could disturb a really nice balance.

Waiting and watching will probably be a bit of a preoccupation today. You’ve begun the process and have done all you can for the moment.
This might be a good time to review the steps you’ve taken so far. Make sure that you’ve got yourself balanced before the real journey begins.
Virtue is likely to be a key concept. Virtue here means being true to yourself within and between all your layers – mind, body and spirit.
Are your emotions in line with your thinking? Are you acting in a way that accurately reflects you’re beliefs and feelings? Explore these questions and relax. Your ship will arrive soon.

There’s good news for anyone who might be interested in opening a psychic business in La Cañada Flintridge, California.
According to the La Cañada Valley Sun, last week, the City Planning Commission unanimously recommended categorizing psychic businesses as ‘offices or business’, and to allow them to operate on a conditional use permit anywhere in the city.
I’m not sure if it means readers can open up shop just yet, but it’s a good start.

Clear rational thinking is at the fore today. Is there something you need to take control of? Have you been wavering and wishy-washy lately? Stop procrastinating.
Focus, take charge and get it done. Have the courage to be clear and rational. Cut through the fog and let logic rule the day.
You know who you are, you know what you want and you’re sure you deserve it. Go to it. But beware of dictating what’s best for those around you.
You might know how to take care of yourself, but let others take care of their own lives, their own way.
