What’s Your Tarot Year Card for 2024?
For me, 2024 is a Wheel of Fortune year. 2023 was a Hermit year for me, and as I’m a true introvert, that felt just fine. But now, I’m gearing up for a wild ride as I spin to the fast-paced Wheel of Fortune year. As a Hermit, I reflected, gained insight, and made plans […]
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 […]
Being Present While Looking to the Future During The Great Pause (with Tarot)

Looking to the Queen of Wands for Confidence and Guts
The Customer is Always Right I just had a rotten customer service experience. Not the end of the world, not important in the grand scheme of things, I know, but this minor experience led me to examine how I feel about myself and how I interact with the world on a deeper level. To make […]
Do your best! Ganbatte!
“When I was living in Japan…” – this is a phrase that brings the most profound glassy look to my friends’ eyes, causes polite yawns, or provokes the hilarious reply, “Oh wait a minute! Did you live in JAPAN? I didn’t know that! Really?”. I totally understand this reaction, and accept the teasing as 100% […]

To the romantic at heart, like me, this sounds very glamorous and exciting, but in reality it involved many hours in the hot sun, working away with pickaxes and trowels, covered in dust and dirt, clinging to the […]
