 |   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?  |

| The Point I'll see you in Pittsburgh where the three rivers meet. We shall have a picnic merry part and merry meet. The waters of memory will carry us along reliving old friendships recalling ancient songs. I've asked for my ashes to be scattered from here. I'll see you in Pittsburgh when my end draws near. Author's Note: I was born and raised in Pittsburgh. Been in Naples, FL since 1986. Three rivers meet at Point State Park, they form the Ohio, goes to the Mississippi, flows to the Gulf of Mexico. A fitting end to have my ashes scattered here. Dark goddess Tarot--Four of Water--Lethe--Drink water from a blue or lavender glass. Ask her to take away today to make a better tomorrow. |

Holding space. Saving grace. Dark Goddess Tarot---Four of Fire--Kamui Fuchi--Your fire, spirit, energy must last your life. Agni. Do not waste it in fruitless pursuits. Lady Liberty II Lady Liberty steps off her perch and passes the torch to a bare breasted Stormy among the tricoteuses at the guillotine. No MAGA cap but a red Phyrgian hat atop her blonded locks. Liberte. Egalite. Fraternite. |
| Commencement Crow Mother came to your commencement today. She came incognito, though she smelled of sage, carried a basket of sweetgrass. Corn pollen dusted her braids. All the speeches were too long, probable, boring. There were no yucca whips. Crow Mother's voice sang in my head. Stay simple, know that rank is not power, honor the chain of old ones. I put money in your card, and a shiny black feather plucked from the floor. There are no kivas in Florida, but the Cliff Dwellers remain. Dark Goddess Tarot--Eight of Air---Crow Mother---A Hopi Kachina of initiation--make a talking stick,give it away. |
| Kanye Kanye's through the ropes. Is it an elaborate hoax? When politics a blood sport our democracy's a joke. Can you tame a coyote by jumping in the cage? Will wearing a red MAGA hat vent all the rage? We're at 18 and Stormy. Is the President still horny? We can't delete this election. It would cause an insurrection. Did the best man win?

| Ode to Harionago Less goddess than monster I still shall praise her pale pretty face beneath pink cherry blossoms. Daring boys to laugh, taunting men to touch she hides bloodied blades in her hair. This is no serene Mona Lisa, but an anime icon a trumped up punk for the #metoo movement. When the p-word (here kitty, kitty) may be uttered in public and porn stars frolic on the six o'clock news here cold world is your post-modern Madonna. Author's Note: Harionago in Japenese mythology is a beautiful, though ghoulish female. Dark Goddess Tarot--5 of Air--Harianago--engage at your own peril |
| She Who Watches How do we practice what is forever? Am I closer than the young, supple ones on zafus here in my stiff-backed chair? Watching my breath In:peace for myself Out:peace for all others. Losing count I think of cold, fruit soup the unpaid bills, begin again. Slowly, each silence strips away a patina of memory, anger, fear, envy all floaters in my mind. The chime sounds. What is lost dissolves like sugar into water. I drink its sweetness. Dark Goddess Tarot--Hag of Earth--carry the stories along |
