The other day I was at the dentist for a cleaning. Usually this wouldn’t be an event worth mentioning, but for the past two pandemic years any kind of outing is noteworthy. I’ve always had some trepidation around going to the dentist. There is something about the experience that activates my mild claustrophobia. I don’t […]

Invite Love into your Life with Tarot
I approach Tarot readings about LOVE with the utmost respect, compassion, and gentle but persistent honesty. Love is one of the most common reasons that people consult the Tarot, and yet people are often apologetic or sheepish when they ask about it. They don’t want to be a cliché, or look foolish, or make themselves […]

Tarot that ACTIVATES: Introducing the Unifying Consciousness Tarot
I discovered Orbital Arts Gallery at a time in my life when everything felt magical (it still does, but it was different then, and new). I should say Orbital Arts found me, and pulled me in. I was in grad school studying something not so practical, while living in what I thought was the coolest […]

I think this is because when I read the cards, I’m looking for possibilities, magic, solutions and empowering messages. When I close a reading, I like to offer a blessing to the person I’m reading for, […]

Setting intentions with the New Moon & Tarot
During this strange year (and more) we’ve lost track of time, haven’t we? Sometimes it feels like things are moving quickly, sometimes at a stand still. Days of the week don’t have the same meaning. Most significantly, we can’t celebrate milestones, holidays and special occasions in the way we usually would. If we’re not mindful […]
Tarot is both Mystical and Practical
I think magic is all around us. I think the world is woven together with magic. In our day to day lives, we catch tantalizing glimpses of something more, something other, something winks at us from beneath the facade of the mundane. That’s why we love stories and fairy tales with the secret hero, the […]
