It's been a very, very long time since I've been here on my blog. I missed the calming familiarity of typing out little articles for others to read and to help me vent some of my ideas and frustrations into the world.
So I'm back now, trying to once again blog as a way to clear my head. Active meditation through typing, and yes, I'm even trying my hand at branching out in the online world and being of service to those interested and seeking out advice. I'm a bit shy by nature, and the Craft helped me move through that and become a stronger and more outspoken person. Believe it or not, witchcraft does wonders for self-esteem! The word 'self-empowerment' (is that a word?) comes to mind.
My intent is going back to basics- back to my early roots and starting a new adventure with a familiar path. By my early roots I mean the Tarot.
Just in case you didn't know I love the Tarot, let me tell you now. I love the Tarot. I love the Tarot and everything about it. Tarot just draws me in and grabs my attention and interest like a wormhole. In fact the Tarot is what led me to my current spirituality. The Tarot is my wormhole. It's a not a very attractive-sounding analogy, but to me the Tarot does symbolize this inwards progression through my spiritual plane of activity. When I do Tarot readings for others and myself, I sense my mind drifting into another wavelength of thinking-mode. My synapses get into gear and go until they can't connect anymore dots, which is not a huge deal. My Tarot decks are like an extension of myself sometimes. My nearest and dearest have been very pleasantly surprised by my accuracy, and I have even been known to surprise myself on occasion with some of the more direct readings I've had over the years.
So in honor of getting back into Tarot, I'm giving away 3-card Readings to the writers of the first five comments on this post! I will message those who comment for their reading specs and off we go!!!
I hope you're excited :)
I was very glad to see you pop up once again on my blogroll! Have you ever checked out Robert Place's "Buddha Tarot". Personally I think it is a very good bridge between the worlds of Buddhism and Western Esotericism/Paganism.
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny you mention that! I actually own that Tarot deck and the book that explains the intricacies of Buddhist thought through the western tradition of the Tarot journey.
ReplyDeleteI don't use the deck often for readings, but it makes for wonderful meditation material. Plus the artwork is fantastic.
If you look through my earlier blog posts of March 2011, I have two posts on my 'review' of Mr. Place's Buddha Tarot.
Thank you for posting!
