June 21st, 2018 marks the Summer Solstice here in our dear Northern Hemisphere, also celebrated as Midsummer and Litha. The Summer Solstice is a magical time on many levels. Living in the north, most of us long for this day, for the official coming of summer, of warmth, ease, freedom. This is a time when […]
Yes, this is a Monday morning kind of card. I woke up this morning thinking about all I need to get done today. Some things I’m looking forward to, like Tarot readings at my private office, others I’ve been putting off in order to address more immediate concerns but I can’t ignore any longer (the […]
This morning I am exhausted. It’s all good, I am exhausted from a wonderful and busy weekend. I read and taught Tarot at the Elora Tarot and Divination Festival on both Saturday and Sunday, in between driving back to Toronto to perform a wedding on Saturday night. I pulled this card and thought, yes, this is […]
I got my first Tarot deck when I was around 13 years old. I don’t remember telling anyone that I wanted a deck, and I bought my own at a New Age shop that I adored (but sadly doesn’t exist anymore). Thirteen is an awkward age at the best of times, and even though I […]
I just got back from a 12 day vacation, I went to Austria on a kind of family pilgrimage with my sister and my mother. Yesterday I was too jetlagged to be of use to anyone, so I surrendered to it. This morning, I woke up feeling human and ready to tackle the emails and […]
I laughed out loud when I drew this card today! It is PERFECT. First of all, I posted this photo last night after the event that I facilitated with Rochelle Holt at Wonderworks, the Witch is IN. I captioned the image as “the Three of Cups”. And, TODAY, I am travelling to Austria, with my […]
This was my fourth time attending Readers Studio. I’d like to write something witty and funny about my time there, but I’m still assimilating all I experienced, and what I experienced was profound. For an introvert and overly sensitive person like myself, a conference can be both beautiful and terrible. The people at Readers Studio […]
The Fool. Everything and nothing. Pure potential. Living purely in the present. That sacred pause before you take your first full breath and leap into the world. Being born in joy and lightness, ready to join the cosmic dance with pure abandon. The Fool stands poised at the edge of a cliff, a beautiful figure […]
Here we have the archetypal Knight-in-shining-armor, a romantic figure on his elegant steed. Pure romance. It is mid-April, and we are in the midst of an ice storm. It is messy and very un-springlike out there. I woke up in a melancholy state, and then I pulled this card. This Knight was an unexpected and pretty […]
This is what I feel like this morning. I want to draw in my energy, hold it within myself. I feel a little vulnerable, I want to wrap myself in a blanket and be cozy and held. I want to feel the earth solid and supportive beneath my feet. I want to keep a level […]
