7 of Swords In both of my last two client readings, and one for myself, the 7 of Swords showed up. At the 7, we are typically reacting to something that was said or done. We feel as if we have been wronged in some way. Our reaction is likely to be hurt or anger...and… Continue reading Seventy Percent
Do you do Tarot readings for yourself? Do you dabble and pull a card or two now and again? Are you interested in doing either of the above? Those of you who subscribe to my blog probably got a number of emails yesterday. Sorry about that. As part of a new project, I ported a… Continue reading Read for Yourself
[This is an updated version of an article I wrote on my previous blog on 4/20/2010.] At the 7 of Sword, your problem came with a name and a face. Even if you don't know who it was, you know someone committed the crime. In a word, it may have been theft. More generally, and… Continue reading The Lesson of the 7 of Swords
In my previous article (Tendency), I introduced the idea that an Astrological Birth Chart can describe one’s tendency to flow (express or project) energy (thoughts, feelings, actions, and resources) in a particular way. The Natal Chart is the starting point. By also reviewing the progressed charts, we can see how that tendency might trend over… Continue reading Actual vs Potential
The Star Tarot - Cathy McClelland The 5 of Wands requires participation. The point of the physical realm is action and interaction: choice...choosing. Wanting and desiring are great, but you must be willing to journey. The 5 of Wands in the past shows that you have been willing. You are willing to step forward even… Continue reading Willingness

We’re more familiar with discreet. A few synonyms are: subtle, cautious, tactful, prudent, and inconspicuous. (See Inconspicuously Unrelenting.) Discrete, on the other hand, is less… Continue reading Disimprisionment (Repost)
Picture the scene. A wide valley sits within and is completely surrounded by tall mountains. During spring, when the air is often clean and clear, and when the sunny days outnumber the rest, the valley is lush and green. Those who live in this valley love that time of year. Yes, the sun doesn’t rise… Continue reading The Hermits
We are now in the month of August (by one calendar) and 11 days (degrees) into Leo (via another). This month feels vastly different to me than those before it. I am feeling optimism, excitement, anticipation, and appreciation so much more. And I am also feeling inspired. Yesterday, I happened upon this quote by Nelson… Continue reading Courageous
Eclipses hide the light, so you can see a shadow, then turn the light back on so you can heal the shadow. On July 4th, we experienced our third and final eclipse this season. One month earlier, on June 3rd, I shared the quote above in my article called June / July Eclipses. Think about… Continue reading Our Second New Moon in Cancer
I learned recently that the origin of the word decision is quite different than I would have expected. It is, however, elegant and enlightening and makes perfect sense. We all know that an incision is when something is cut into. Think of it this way: in (in or into) - cision (cut). Decision, when we… Continue reading Decision
