Yesterday was a crazy day in my life. I had to complete two vastly different projects. First, I was presenting my “Let’s Talk Clouds” workshop at a local middle school. As the Earth Lady, I work with schools to help students jump-start their interest in science, specifically Earth Science. Then, I switched gears and released…

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…

Yay! It’s another of my favorite cards in the deck. The Ace of Cups represents that first blush of love, or the spark of intuition that leads you in the right direction. It’s always the awareness of what you are feeling right when you are feeling it. It is one of the most optimistic cards…

What are we waiting for? Let’s get out there. Let’s be creative. Let’s joyfully live our truth. Let’s manifest our vision of the world. Wait, what? We’re too tired? We have to pay this month’s bills? We have dishes in the sink? We have to walk the dog? We have to … yeah. In life,…

“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…

There is a big difference between being alone and being lonely. The Hermit has chosen a life of solitude, but she or he is not lonely. There is a purity of purpose to his/her solitude. Whether it’s a life of examination, meditation, communion with spirit, dedication to a craft, or the simple desire to be…

I find this card a hard one to write about. There are so many connotations that people find it hard to objective about this card. We tend to ascribe so many meanings, facets, and patinas to it that we never get to bottom of things. In my opinion, it is easy to put all the…

Yegads, how do I write about the Tower? It’s change. It comes upon you. It often takes you by surprise. It kicks your butt and often, very often, it leaves you bedraggled and exhausted but clinging to a new shore on which you will leave a vastly different and generally better life. When a client…

I chose the Star back on January 10th so if you want to read that write-up and apply it to your life today, please find it here. Here is today’s take on the card. I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately about how what we do makes us who we are. If you make…

Trust. In essence, this card is about trust. Wherever we find ourselves, we need to trust that we are seeing what we are seeing and more importantly that we are feeling what we’re feeling. We have to trust that it is okay to feel what we feel. Sure, if we are experiencing emotions that are…

Ah, the Queen of Cups is one of my favorite cards in the deck. She represents the compassionate, generous, creative aspect of the deck like few other cards. Not only that, but she reminds us that while we are being compassionate, giving, generous, and tender toward everyone else, not to forget ourselves. “Sure!” she says.…

The Ten of Pentacles has an upside and a downside. The upside: if you come from a caring, nurturing loving family who left you a legacy of joy and peace, why then you’re golden. If your family of origin was otherwise, you carry that legacy as well and you have a tougher road. Now, most…

Today, we have some decisions to make. Do we remain true to our ideals or do we bend them just enough to get what we ultimately think we want? Do we stay honest or do we tell little white lies that will grease wheels, smooth the road ahead, and keep the peace? Do we maintain…

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…
