 |   My blog--I pull a card--if it doesn't speak to me...perhaps it is for you? |
I pull a card...if it doesn't speak to me...perhaps it was meant for you?    How to Read the Tarot Begin by brewing a cup of tea, a nervine, lemon balm or chamomile, this is after all, your future. A reading at the dark of the moon is best, before the night creatures crawl and bad humours fill the air. Pick a circular deck, with a fairy-tale motif, and no reversals. Hold a question in your heart, shuffle the cards and place them on the table. Choose only two. Like the ancient Israelites, these are your seer stones, Urim and Thumimm, black and white, yes or no. Isn't that all you were asking?  |
| Notre Dame--April 15, 2019 I was a silly, feral young woman in Paris, looking for romance, adventure, throwing back cognac in the bars dressed in jeans and boots. I barely glanced at the Cathedral, though today I cry, and pine for a second look. Worms will cover us all someday though her stone gargoyles may still stand. The Madonna of the World is weeping. 12 lines Tarot of the Crone--Ten of Swords--Revelation--Do not despise your yesterday self for not knowing what you know today. |
| Spring Season of sweetness dirt, seed,sun and rain. Flour, yeast, water, salt. Bone, blood, tears, reach further than family. Tarot of the Crone--9 of Disks--Community--The antidote to isolation is sharing. |
| Palm Sunday A stormy Palm Sunday, seeking a water cure, rain sluicing my skin, a tempest within, with out. Tarot of the Crone--3 of Cups--Communion--Together we are One. Together we are More. |
| Water School My astrologer says I have lots of water. Moon, Sun, Mercury in Scorpio, my ascendant Aquarius, the water bearer. I float through this life, and perhaps, the next. Tadpole becoming bufo toad. At night, I lie awake listening to the pond chorus gleaning lessons from the water school. Tarot of the Crone--0-Fool--Becoming formless and timeless is what you need to create a new future. |
| Market The market sells nostrums to heal our wounds. Snake oil won't purge our interior serpents. Tarot of the Crone--Witch of Swords--Adversary--Be your own best friend and defense attorney. |
| Chiron A meander through the planets. Chiron in Sagittarius, wounded healer, I weep for all. My Chiron is in Sagittarius Tarot of the Crone--XII--Sacrifice--to sacrifice is to make sacred. Let it flood, let it go. |
| Old Mermaid Sanctuary A vision become real, the Old Mermaid Sanctuary trumps DisneyWorld. The tyranny of nature rules here. No lies, no despicable deceptions. There are ancient shells in the Wash, jackrabbits, bobcats napping in the grasses, a carpet of desert wildflowers. Silver-haired Kim and gentle-eyed Mario welcome you, invite you to play. And all the Old Mermaids will sing you to sleep. Tarot of the Crone--Ten of Wands--Transformation--I went as far as I could go--and then went farther. |
| Song Once upon a time when womyn were birds dawn was filled with songs praising dirt, rock, sun,hands,bread. At dusk, the womyn beat their wings to cool the air their voices rising in cradle songs to sorrow. |
| Baba Oh let me be Baba Yaga. I will scream in the trees, caper in my hut on chicken legs. With my mortar and pestle I will grind the bones of lying leaders and chew their entrails in my iron teeth. I will wash the feet of the resisters, my sisters. We will turn our backs and all that does not serve just cause. Tarot of the Crone--Seven of Swords--Imagination--I have the power to travel along roads I have not seen. 17 lines Baba Yaga is a witch of Slavic mythology |
