Can you manifest using Tarot and the law of attraction?
Hi there Tarot Friends, Leo Fest is still perking along, with new goodies being added every week. This week's gift is a free-form spread creator. Sunday was the Leo New Moon, with Mercury stationing retrograde the same day. That got me to thinking about how thoughts create reality (the Law of Attraction) and ways to use Tarot to help with the process. How to ferret out stinking thinking, and clear out head trash so your manifestation efforts work clear some head trash with the Daily...

Hi there Tarot Friends, remix of the Rider Waite Smith Star card by me Maybe you imagine a Tarot reading as a dramatic card flip that seals your fate. But if you’ve worked with the cards, even a little, you already know better. Fate and free will are always dancing together in this game of life. Tarot serves as a compass And it does it through image and story. David and Goliath The Ant and the Grasshopper Beauty and the Beast The moment you read those titles, images and emotions rise up,...

Hi there Tarot Friends, image from Pinterest - unknown origin Today I have a brief story from the trenches for you about what it's really like to hang your shingle on the internet and give readings to random people. I tell you this story not to discourage you, but to let you know what it's like to "be available" to anyone who passes by. You DO NOT need to read in this context or environment. It's absolutely okay to read for family and friends and select other people. It DOES NOT make you less...

Hi there Tarot Friends, 5 of wands unknown deck Mercury stations direct in Leo today (Monday the 11th) as I'm writing this. I don't know about you, but my Mercury retrograde experience has been very similar to these 2 versions of the 5 of wands. Perhaps this is because Mercury is stationing on my natal Mars in Leo. The beginning of the retrograde set off a change of pace, making all my activities faster and more frenetic. As the station has been approaching, confrontation and frustration has...

Hi There Tarot Friends, Wow, it's August already and my birthday is coming up fast! The Full Moon in Aquarius is this Friday (along with my debut at House of Spirits), and we are still in the middle of Mercury retrograde. For me, Mercury retrograde has been go, go, go (Mercury in a fire sign conjunct my natal mars). How about you? How has this Mercury cycle been for you? If you are up early, you can see Venus and Jupiter coming together in the East before the sun rises. I live right in the...

Hi there Tarot Friends, I learned Tarot back in the 1980’s. I pored over Mary K. Greer’s books, their pages fragrant with incense from the local New Age shop. Today, we have endless learning tools at our fingertips. It’s exciting, overwhelming, and terrifying. If I were starting fresh in 2025, here’s how I’d navigate it. Tarot Tech: AI as a Tool, Not a Crutch Deepseek! In the 80’s, definitions came from books. Now, we can ask AI to interpret cards for us—and it does a decent job! I’ve...

Hi there Tarot Friends, How have you all been feeling? I feel like the shift has happened! I don't want to count my chickens before they are hatched, but I feel like my foot has slipped free of the Hanged Man's noose and I'm headed straight for Death and rebirth. I'll keep you posted. We are in a waning moon, headed toward the new moon in Leo on July 24. Uranus, the great awakener, has entered Gemini and Mercury goes retrograde on Thursday the 17th. What does all this mean?

Hi there Tarot Friends, New Moon in Cancer today conjunct our lovely Jupiter. Hopefully this will be a breather from the rather frenetic last few months. As usual, New Moons are a good time to seed intentions, so you've got the rest of the week to think about what you'd like to grow in the month ahead. Maybe write down your intentions on paper, fold them up, and plant them. Water them every day between now and the full moon. See what happens. Ya never know. Dang! Your Tarot reading would...
