The wounded warrior stands, to the last, to defend the castle. She or he is heroic, brave, true and defensive. And that last one isn’t necessarily a bad thing depending on what we’re going through. Don’t get me wrong. I truly believe that sometimes we are under attack. Someone has it out for us and…

“Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool. Lovin’ both of you is breaking all the rules…” The Three of Swords always reminds me of the lyrics to this song from the 70s. It feels like you are standing at a crossroads and there are no good choices. In the song, it’s about loving two…

Before I go any further, let me state for the record that the Death card really has nothing to do with physical death. It does not portend that someone is going to die. It talks about the ending of a great cycle in our lives. Things have been moving toward an ending for a while…

I’ll be honest. It’s not the most pleasant of cards. It talks about stress, worry, potential illness, and general malaise. It doesn’t mean that your day is going to be like that. It does however mean that you need to be on the lookout for those kinds of distressing feelings and situations. And then, you…

Today’s Tarot: Five of Cups (loss, regret, crying over spilled milk and what you can do about it) The Cups are the suit of the emotions in the deck. Some are fantastic like the Ten (love of family, contentment, joy) and some, not so wonderful. The Five of Cups falls in the less than ideal…

Learn and then do. Know and then act. Find out and then react. The Hierophant can be a tough taskmaster. He calls on us to know before we act. That can really cramp your style when all you want to do is jump in and get going. But, often when we do that, instead of…

Romantic, moody, emotional, compassionate, creative, imaginative, feeling – these all describe the Knight of Cups. Today is a day to really get into how we feel and what it means to be us in our shoes, at this time and in this place. Sometimes, it’s easy to know how we feel. When my cat climbs…

Today’s Tarot: King of Rods (Bold, active, creating) The King of Rods doesn’t suffer lazybones gladly. In fact, he strides by those who would sit and do nothing as he creates and achieves. In his mind, there are great deeds to accomplish, great things to invent, and great times to be had. He is active…

Today’s Tarot: Wheel of Fortune. Chance. Luck. Destiny Ah, Lady Luck, you can either be salvation or you can be utter destruction and relying on you to be either at any one time is definitely a fool’s game. Today, ride your lucky streak but don’t ever depend on it. If you were a gambler, I’d…

Ups and Downs Emotionally? Oh yay! (This week’s cards: King of Cups, Page of Cups [reversed], Seven of Swords) I feel like I should be quoting cheesy 80s love song lyrics here, for some reason. But I think I’ll just say that if you put yourself out there emotionally, if you are honest about your…

Last night’s tarot/palm gig was a doozy. I don’t normally read until 1:30 in the morning, but last night, I did and I will pay the price for my late night. However, it was AWESOME (for the most part)! I heard the words, “how could you possibly *know* that?” and “did you Google me?” more…

This week, we need to make our own luck (except that sometimes we make bad luck as well as good luck, so know exactly what you want before you go for it). The cards are: Wheel of Fortune, The Magician, Knight of Swords (reversed). Things aren’t really in our control right now. We might be…

Eight of Pentacles (reversed), Ten of Cups, The Hermit Sometimes, we think we know it all and other times we realize just how much else we have to learn. This week’s cards give a little of both. Here we go… The Eight of Pentacles is the card of the student. This doesn’t necessarily mean going…

This week’s cards rock, on toast, with sugar-free, all natural jam. The first card: Two of Cups. This card is all about connection, sharing, a soul-to-soul union. If the past comes calling (and by “the past,” I mean an old lover/partner/boyfriend/girlfriend/snookly, and that person gave you warm fuzzies and you parted on good terms with…

Today’s Tarot: 2/24/12. Ten of Rods, Knight of Cups. Today is about moving on. If you’re fed up with someone or something, if you’ve tried multiple times to work it out and it’s just not happening, then take your toys and go. You don’t have to stay somewhere that makes you miserable. You have choices…
