Today’s Tarot: Three of Pentacles. Work. Accomplish. Achieve. This card is about the business of doing business. You want something to happen? Sometimes, you just have to roll up your sleeves and go make it happen. It won’t just come to you because you wish for it (sadly, though wouldn’t that be cool). Intent really…
Today’s Tarot: The Empress Nourishment, abundance, creativity. The Empress represents the mothering aspect. While this can be biological, it doesn’t have to be. The card asks us to nourish that which we love: our dreams, our children, our friends and family, or ourselves. Today, think about what you care about and then infuse it with…
Today’s Tarot: Six of Swords. Lessons learned. Recovering. Seeing with fresh eyes. Here’s the thing about this card. In many ways, it’s a call to action.

I am officiating a wedding on Monday (my first Christmas Eve wedding). Interestingly, while I’ve been percolating on the ceremony since the groom asked me to officiate early last week (not a lot of notice, I know, but I’m sure I can handle it), I haven’t written much of it yet. Do any of you…
I have been reading a bunch of blogs and articles on how we need to stop kids from being bullied because they are gay. Today, especially, there are a few articles because Nate Silver (the statistitian who so accurately predicted Obama’s re-election) is gay and the news about it went public yesterday. So, today, blog…

So, Skyfall. [spoilers abound so be warned] It was great in many ways. I enjoy Craig as Bond. I enjoyed Bardem as Silva (I do understand that some might call his performance over the top and I agree to an extent. But he did the split between mad villain and toddler who wants his mommy,…
