Here we are, about to go into a new year. A new decade. The “roaring 20s” a friend of mine called it. Another year has flown by, and again we find ourselves at the cusp of change, filled with all of those New Year feelings. At this time of year, we reflect on the year […]

Social Media: Best friend and worst enemy to us introverts and empaths
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 […]
Sweet Memories: Remembrance Cookies for Halloween and Samhain
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 […]
Checking in with the Tarot – what do I need to do for myself today?
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 […]

What can be more exciting […]
Sending you a moment of calm and love, Tarot-style
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 […]
July 2, 2019 – New Moon and Eclipse Tarot Spread
On July 2nd, we experience a new moon and a solar eclipse in Cancer. I am not an astrologer, so what follows comes from my personal experience and my work with the cards. Eclipses throw me for a loop. The energy of this particular one has started to build and I’m feeling it already. It […]
Happy (Hierophant) Birthday
June 5th is my birthday. I love birthdays and celebrations of all kinds. I think it is important to make note of special occasions, to mark them in some way, otherwise time just seems to slip away, days blend together. This year, I have mixed feelings about my own birthday. First of all, I want […]
