Later this week my husband and I are running off to the tropics for a long overdue and silly fun vacation. We are going to an all inclusive on the beach, to a magical land where food and drinks are always available, the ocean is right there to jump into at will, and a bracelet […]
I love Halloween. Essentially, I celebrate Halloween for the entire month of October. Since I became a professional Tarot reader, my love for this season has blended into what I do for a living, and now I spend most of October in a witch hat reading the cards at parties and events, as well as […]
As I’m writing this, I am so tired. Happy, but tired. October is GO time for Tarot readers. Private clients, events, classes… And, I’ve been really busy officiating lovely Autumn weddings. It’s Monday. I worked all weekend, teaching Tarot and marrying some lovely people. I’m sitting here at the computer, determined to write something, but […]
I love October. I feel aching yet delicious melancholy at this time of year. As the season truly begins to change, I see beauty in the fallen leaves and bare branches, and I feel reverence for this time of rest, retiring into darkness, and communing with the Dark Goddess.

Life is overwhelming. It is beautiful, it is terrible, it is incomprehensibly huge. I feel things so deeply, and I bet you do, too. One moment I am inspired by the kindness and love that I see everywhere, the next moment I feel heartbreak for all the suffering and pain that we put ourselves through […]
I’m a tried and true introvert, so I’m pretty comfortable being by myself. In truth, I need ample time alone (or in the exclusive company of my cat, Willow) to recharge my batteries, to process my own thoughts, and to allow my creativity to flow. Just another day at the office So, the solopreneur lifestyle […]
When you’re learning Tarot (which is a lifetime pursuit, by the way) it is important to read all you can, to study many different sources, to suck in as much information as you can about the many layers of each card. Also, it is important to open up to your intuition, to see how the […]
July has been a month of ups and downs for me (and it’s only halfway through). Mercury Retrograde seems to be playing a role, making me hesitant to speak up and to initiate conversations.
