Riding the cusp between imagination and reality…
So… Mid-June, I received a phone call… an unknown number on my work phone, just as I was half-dressed and mid-way through applying my make-up, getting ready to leave for a reading gig, and usually under those circumstances, I would never have answered the phone but all my kids shouted in chorus- MUM!!!! PHONE!!! YOU […]
Read More Adventures on my Tarot travels…I often come across debates as to whether or not kids should be reading tarot or oracles and if so, then what sort of cards are suitable? Oh… and what about cards that have nudity in them? Is that appropriate? Now the question of nudity… well maybe it’s just me… and admittedly yet again I’ve […]
Read More Should kids read cards?Every so often, I come across musings on the removal of tarot card borders and mostly they talk about how the colours pop and the visual impact… and when I found myself with two sets of the same deck recently after a string of confusions, it seemed a perfect excuse to give one the chop… […]
Read More Benefits of Borderectomies…The mind is a funny old place… well… when I say the mind… I mean my mind as obviously I have no idea what goes on in yours… but mine for sure is curious… curious in many ways… And one of the really nice things I like about the work that I do, is that […]
Read More Memory jogs and jigs…I’ve always been quite partial to this card and seen it as wonderfully flowing energy of give and take… and in my head, it does roll around like this… But interesting things happen sometimes in conversations and you get a whole new view through another’s eyes… A year or so ago… I don’t know… I […]
Read More The Flip Side of The Coin…Indulge me if you will, whilst I tell you about what turned out to be the last time that I would practice the Buddhist walking meditation… I can’t recall the exact date, but I do remember the location and that it was a dreary grey sort of day and I was rather nonplussed by that as […]
Read More Pause for Reflection…There are lots of Tarot Tower moments in life… Times when we feel blown away… Surprises that come out of the blue… Sometimes where we’re blasted in a great way… such as falling in love… and that feels good! But there are times when our world gets rocked in not so pleasant ways… I’ve been casting […]
Read More Beware of the Aftershock…The cocktail of life is a curious thing… How do you make that perfect blend, to please your taste just so… Sure… many of the key ingredients will often be the same but the quantities will vary… I mean… life’s gonna get dull pretty quick if you drink the same stuff from the same glass, […]
Read More An Old Barmaid Spills…Today, Lyn Thurman posed an interesting question… Death, or at least little deaths, happen continuously. The world is in a constant state of movement, going from beginnings to endings in the cycle of life. Write about unfinished business you have. Is it time you buried it or resurrected it? See… that’s interesting for me […]
Read More Unfinished business…He’s a funny old sort… The Hanged Man… He comes in many guises… I guess it all depends on which way you choose to look at him… Yeah… he’s upside down with his view of things and sometimes he’s not upright in more ways than one… But to try and shift his view and insist […]
