for the past couple of weeks I’ve been clearing away a lot of things. still, every time I shuffle a cup card—ten of cups or three of cups—would pop up, followed by the strength, and the wheel of fortune. don’t worry. you will make it through. but everybody worries, even though they do always make it through. and maybe it’s one step back for every two steps forward,...

birth cards
birth cards are the basic foundational energy that defines your life. of course we as human beings are all different; different astrological charts and all, but I feel like our birth cards are where we start. so you might have the same birth cards with someone but where it takes you would obviously be very different from where it takes someone else. if you don’t know your birth card, find it...

the hanged man
decks: rider waite, hermetic
[[MORE]]
the hanged man is not an executed man, as commonly assumed. this is a very misunderstood card as well as the death. if you look at the card closely, the man is not hung from his neck. only his ankle is tied to the cross and he is rather free to move his limbs, despite being in a difficult position of hanging upside down. the hanged man card’s keyword...

strength
deck: here, bohemian gothic, labylinth
[[MORE]]
a beauty and a beast. or the lady who tamed the lion. whatever the woman in the strength card is to be called, it’s obvious that she did not tame the beast because of her physical strength. her power comes from within. her inner strength is that of patience, compassion, extreme self-awareness, ability to manifest. her infinity within the...

fatal attraction
advice versus reality.
[[MORE]]
what kind of information I give and what kind of decision a client makes based on that could be two very distinct things, I’ve learned. I’ve had women ask me about the same doomed relationship over and over again. sometimes I say straight up, “why are you still in this? it’s clear from the spread that you have nothing left in it.”...
