Still waters run deep. They also reflect. Today, I sit here, trying to get this blog started. I am humbled by the Universe once again. No matter how many times I’ve tried to be right about this one thing, I’ve been wrong. Let me back up… When I first had the idea to write A… Continue reading Perfect Reflection

The Waiting Room
[Post updated 7/19/2021. This is a story about Pluto, but equally applies to 7 and the Death card in the Tarot.] Janice trudged up to her luscious bed, tossed the decorative pillows onto the floor, and crawled into it. She pulled the comforter up to her shoulders and then fell back onto the last of… Continue reading The Waiting Room
Once in a Moment
And once in a moment, It all comes to you. Soon as you get it, You want something new. - Lyric from It’s All I Can Do I can’t write a blog entry like It’s All I Can Do and not follow up with something. That was, after all, one of the most emotional days… Continue reading Once in a Moment
It’s All I Can Do
Today is January 20, 2012. 1-20-2012. It's like we’re counting, but stuck at 1-2. The T-Square I wrote of last time is as tight as it’s going to get. The Sun already squared off with Saturn, and will have its turn with Jupiter soon enough. And today the Sun made the transition from Capricorn to… Continue reading It’s All I Can Do

[Updated July 2021. Essay on Tarot: II The High Priestess] The High Priestess is the most mysterious card in the deck. This is because her expertise are focused on the occult: namely the subtle and all things hidden. She explores the mysteries of existence, not merely within the earth plane. Eventually, as she comes to… Continue reading 11 / ELEVEN / XI
Two Weeks
Over the course of the past two weeks and through 25 to 30 readings, spirit has re-framed three tarot cards for me with additional insight. Three weeks ago, I wrote On the Way, which was a discussion of the 5 of Cups. Two more times in the past two weeks, the 5 of Cups showed… Continue reading Two Weeks
On the Way
Surely you’ve heard someone tell a story that began with, “A funny thing happened on the way to…” So often in life, we head toward an intended (and seemingly straight forward) destination only to be diverted in some odd and unexpected way. The more odd, and the more unexpected, the better the story. But what… Continue reading On the Way
