Today’s Card: Page of Wands This is a propitious card for me to draw today. The Wands suit is about your passion, career, and/or creative endeavors. The Page, of course, is a messenger. And today I’ve been working on a new creative pursuit. It’s an idea I had a while back, but yesterday I just [...]

And like many of us reformed Christians, I struggle with letting go of my cherished holiday traditions and substituting those more appropriate to my belief systems. Many of my happiest memories from my childhood surround Christmas. For me, though, most of those memories [...]

Today’s Card: Eight of Swords Today, I specifically needed to make a decision about going up to White Rock tomorrow so Mark can get a refill on his blood pressure meds. We’re supposed to get more snow tomorrow, a storm even worse then earlier in the week (6-15 inches they’re predicting — egad!). But so far [...]

Today’s card is Temperence. Temperence…I haven’t seen that card come up in a while. Everything I’ve been getting lately has been about moving forward, working toward a reward.

Today’s Card is the 9 of Pentacles. This is quite an auspicious card. The 9 of Pentacles (also called the 9 of Coins in some decks) is, like all 9′s, a card of fulfillment. Being an Earth card, that fulfillment is usually in the material world. Often it indicates a financial windfall or success in [...]
