Queen of Wands
Be yourself and be it fully. This is a day for you to shine. You know yourself and you’ve been true to your soul. It’s always worth it and now you’re remembering why.
As you harness your energy to create your will, do so with compassion. Remember what you suffered to get to your present state. Have compassion for those that are still struggling. They can use your inspiration, but remember your strength. Be careful not to burn them.

Ace of Disks
Start that new project now! I know it’s just the beginning and you can hardly see how it’s going to manifest, but manifest it will. The Ace of Disks is the seed that begins all new physical realities.
Is it a new job? A novel approach to an old one? Trying to get a project off the ground? Starting a new workout or eating regimen?
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have all the details yet. What’s important right now is to start working. Do it with the confidence that it’s going to succeed – in the real world.
All great trips require a first step. This is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. Take the step and start the journey.

August 1st, 2024 § Comments Off on Moon in Cancer – High Priestess Dressed as the Charioteer § permalink
The Moon moves into Cancer today, and stays there until Saturday.
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.

#19 – The Sun
What a good day! Enjoy! After the long journey you’ve finally managed to get to the other side of the night.
There’s no need to be shy – express yourself and let everyone see you smile.
You have confidence now and boundaries no longer pen you in. Creativity carries you forward as if in a dream.
Focus your imagination and you can manifest what you will. Be open, free and alive.
July 31st, 2024 § Comments Off on Three Things I Really Like about Reading Cards for Others § permalink
After reading cards now for over thirty years, I’d say that there are three things I especially like about reading for others …
•Getting to help people sort through thoughts and emotions when they’re facing a dilemma or crossroads. When you can help – it’s a real thrill.
•Having sincere, heartfelt conversations with people through the cards – all sorts of different people, with all sorts of different perspectives – friends and strangers, they always teach me something.
•Being reminded through the questions we ask, that we humans are all very similar, with the same hopes, fears, and needs. It helps me love people more.
And of course, I also just really like looking at pictures and talking about what they might mean (which I guess makes it four things I especially like.)
Tarot reading for oneself is fabulous, but Tarot reading for others has its own set of joys.

3 of Disks
You’ve been working hard and the people that matter are starting to take notice. Take pride in doing a good job.
You’re becoming a master at your trade, and mastery requires not only technical skill, but also an appreciation for the art in what you do.
When you care about your job or the tasks you’ve taken on, the work involved is rarely a chore. Look at your tasks as the creative processes they are.
Whatever you’re doing, you’re creating something, bringing something new into the world. Consider your role as creator with the seriousness it deserve.
July 30th, 2024 § Comments Off on Creativity Spread (or at least some questions about creativity and inspiration) § permalink
This isn’t a formal creativity spread … more like a small group of questions about creativity and getting inspired. They were questions that were coming up for me the other day so I threw some cards and got some insights. Maybe you’ll find them useful too …
•How am I best expressing creativity in my life right now?
•Where is creativity, or inspiration, lacking?
•what might be a remedy for the lack in this area?
•What are two general suggestions for sparking new creative inspiration… pull two cards
•How might I inspire others to tap into their own creativity?
New questions might arise as you see how the cards respond to these ones. If that happens, go with it – ask as many questions as you’d like. But try not to get too carried away – sometimes a lot of cards can just confuse an issue.
_________________________________________
One other thing … after I asked the questions listed above, I pulled one more card. It was a Wisdom Question á la the late, great Rachel Pollack …
What is Creativity?
Using the Tattoo Tarot by Megamunden, I got the 6 of Swords:
Creativity is new ideas arising from the ideas, or thoughts we already have.
Have an inspiring and creative day.

#2 – The High Priestess
This is a good day to give your spirit some serious attention. Take a little time by yourself to think about what it is that you believe. What do you think of the world and your place in it? What ultimately gives your life meaning?
It’s also a good time right now to pay attention to the messages other people have been sending you. Let yourself absorb the world around you without feeling the need to jump in right away and take action. This is a better time to sit and receive than to act.
Observe, listen and think about what it is you’re doing. Through reflection you’ll start to see all sides. Through this wider perspective you’ll find the priorities and direction that can help you on your path.
