Hello from freakin' Narnia, man. What world is this? I live near the coast in Texas and it's 17°, but feels like -2° with the wind. This is a "once-in-a-generation" system apparently, but I guess someone forgot that we had this same bullshit in February

As you may know, yesterday was the Winter Solstice - the period of time in the year that is marked as having the least amount of daylight (thus, the longest night). During the Winter Solstice, the veil is even thinner than on Samhain (Halloween). Historically, the pagan Scandinavian people would

Here we sit: five days away from Christmas. For many of you, that means a family reunion is on the way. Whether it's been a few years, months, or days - the stress of this type of gathering is real. I'm not sure there is a

I haven't been completely open with my friends and extended family about my work with Tarot; I can feel their judgement and disdain just by thinking about that conversation. "You're dabbling in things that are evil! You don't know what you will unleash!

Do you remember life before social media? Where the world relied on nightly news and newspapers to stay up-to-date? Triggered responses were so much less public because you had to stop and physically write a letter and wait for it to be printed. But then came Friendster and MySpace and

Can I stop for a minute and just talk about how amazed I am with the talent and inspiration that has gone into the creation of so many of the Tarot decks in circulation. I'm beginning to include links to the decks I use in the image above

Last night's full moon was beautiful and kind'a crazy! The energy in this house was unhinged (particularly with the kiddo and animals). Needless to say, there wasn't much sleep to be had (at least by us adults, much to our chagrin). Today's

Today's card is the King of Cups. Royalty in the Tarot has often been seen as a literal interpretation, that a person with these traits (and gender) will soon come in to your life or is affecting something directly in your life... I mean, sure. If you say
