I remember the first time I learned about Spirit Guides — and how cool I thought it was. Imagine having a whole gang of invisible helpers at your beck and call: would they do the laundry? Give me lottery numbers? Give me the answer’s to the next day’s Physics test? The answer is no, no …
Back-To-School….and Fearless
My great-niece, Ella Ruby, starts 2nd grade today. She is totally chuffed, excited about her new teacher, backpack and classroom. She doesn’t care that she knows nothing about 2nd grade math– she just plans to tackle it and get as many gold stars as she can grab. There’s something wonderful about a 7 year old’s …
THE OUIJA HEEBIE-JEEBIES
I still remember the first time I ever used a Ouija board: I was in fifth grade, having a sleepover with my friends. After a long, giggly debate, we decided the dead person we most wanted to contact was….Betsy Ross. Go figure. (I voted for Bobby Sherman, but he wasn’t dead– a minor technicality). Anyway, …
Five-Minute Feng Shui

Drag Queens and The Devil
I’m obsessed with drag queens. I love them. RuPaul’s Drag Race is my not-so-guilty pleasure, and To Wong Foo is one of my favorite movies. Now what could a middle-aged Methodist from a small town who personally prefers Land’s End over Louboutins find in this world of sequins, wigs and general diva-liciousness? I think it …
The No-Fear Zone
I was doing a reading for someone the other day when this card fell out of the deck as I was shuffling (love when that happens…) The Strength card is about taming those things that seem like they’re out of control: appetites (whether it be for Thin Mints or a hook-up with that toxic person …
“My kitty sees dead people!”
I work as a psychic/medium – but don’t limit myself to two-legged clients. I’m frequently asked to talk to pets, including those who’ve passed over. And their take on that experience is pretty interesting. Animals understand – on a very fundamental level — that death is merely a change from one form of energy to …
An Angel On My Sofa
There’s been this thing going around on the Inter-webs, about “hosting” five of the archangels in your home. You invite them to kick back with you for five days, before sending them on to visit 3 of your friends. Kind of like a heavenly chain letter. Anyway, all sorts of cool things are supposed to …
