The Tarot is a rich, deep, complex way to get some rich, deep, complex insights into your life. It’s been around for centuries — and sometimes, it can feel like it takes that long to really know the cards. That puts a lot of people off learning them.

How to Move Forward in 2014
Earlier this week, I wrote about how 2014 is a ‘7’ year – which means a year of increased intuitve powers, the ability to manifest things quickly and a year of healing, both inside and out. The corresponding Tarot card to this vibe is The Chariot. The guy in the cart is on the move. …
Seven Things to Do In a “7” Year
There’s something about the number “7.” Lucky seven, the seven seas, Dance of the Seven Veils, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers….you get the drift. Seven has some righteous energy. Traditionally, “7” is the number of wisdom, of the mystic and the magician. According to numerology, it’s the number driving this brand new year, 2014. Not …
The “Repeat” Button: Why the Same Crap Keeps Happening
I read a client the other night who was beyond frustrated at her dating situation. Just when she thought she’d met a great guy, he shut down on her about 2 weeks in. It was all going along so well, and then – pffft. After her third smackdown, she asked, “Why does this keep happening …
Build Your Psychic Power
Intuition is a completely natural function. And like other functions (except, perhaps, my inner thigh muscles), it can be strengthened. The thing with your natural psychic gifts is that you have dozens of chances each day to give them a little work out. Hunches, first impressions and gut feelings are all signs that your intuition …
How to Use A Pendulum
Pendulums are one of the most fun divination tools ever. At the New Age store that I once worked at, we’d play with the display models during slow afternoons. Always a hoot. Pendulums are a great way to get a quick “yes” or “no” answers. And you get a real experience of the physical energy …
How to Choose A Tarot Deck
One of my clients asked me the other day about working with the Tarot. She had taken a class once, but admitted that she felt overwhelmed with the deck she had been given to use and wondered if she should try another. The answer is “yes.” Tarot is a very deep subject, but letting …
Never Too Late: How to Fix the (Seemingly) Unfixable
There’s a house up the street that’s stood vacant for the last 25 years. I’m told that, on his deathbed, the owner made his wife swear she’d never sell it. She didn’t. Instead, she moved to Georgia with her daughter, leaving the house to rot. The weeds grew up, raccoons were spotted inside. My …
Death — It Ain’t What You Think
My best friend lost her father this week. I stopped in to give her a hug, and over coffee, she shared her story. One of the things she was struck by was how fast he went, shortly after entering the hospital. She said it was like he had made the decision to leave and had …
How to Do An Instant Tarot Reading
The Tarot has been around for centuries; judging from the amount of info about it, no shocker there. For that reason, learning this ancient art can be off-putting to the newbie. So much to take in: meanings, reversals, context, spreads. It’s enough to send you running for a pint of Ben and Jerry’s and a …
