Over It!

[I’m not quite at a once-weekly post, but I’m at least a little more frequent.] I have been spending a lot of time thinking about the gifts of Covid19. Yes, gifts. I’m not being sarcastic. This huge pain in the ass has taught me a lot, and I am guessing you have learned something too. […]

Happy New Year and Check Your Alignment

I’m keeping my resolution to keep up my blog and social networks with more regularity. It was a very non-eventful New Year for most everyone I know. On New Year’s Eve, I did get to guest on NewsTalkSTL’s variety show, and if you’re interested, you can see/listen here. Please scroll to the 2:36 mark for […]

On Love, Infidelity, and Polyamorous Relationships

I’ve seen it a million times. Clients who show up in their tarot cards as struggling with infidelity issues (their own or that of their partner). There can be a lot of shame around this subject. Some are trying for honesty with their partners by declaring themselves polyamorous or in an open relationship. In these […]

A Metaphysical Look at the Lord’s Prayer

Over these last few weeks, I have been thinking a lot about The Lord’s Prayer and what it means for us today. If you have a Christian background, as I do, you probably know it by heart. It is from the New Testament when the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray. From […]

Where We’re Going

Seven years ago, Tom and I were in London and Cambridge, England, following the literal footsteps of Sylvia Plath. How I miss traveling! When I saw that “four” for how long Covid-19 would last (see a few posts back), I had hoped it was four weeks and then began to believe it was four months. […]

Road Kill Resurrections – Because You Can

It’s been another road trip to Springfield, Missouri, for another weekend of Tom playing guitar with his band.  We make these trips once every few months, and it’s a great time for me to read, write, listen to audiobooks, and do my spiritual highway work. Wait a minute… what? I have this philosophy: if we’re […]

On Atheists

Click on this picture to go to the Center for Spiritual Atheism   A lot of my friends (and some of my family) are atheists, and so they believe that they cannot “believe” in what I do as a tarot card reader, or embrace my Plath work.  Tarot and spirituality are sometimes lumped with “religion” […]

The Qabalistic Palimpsest of Axel’s Castle

This is the 5th book review from books in Sylvia Plath’s library, or mentioned in journals or letters.  See older blog posts for other reviews. I’ve decided that these book reviews are getting a bit long for a blog format, so I’m going to blog only the beginnings, and if you’d like to read the […]

From Ritual to Romance: Plath’s Pagan Primer (w/Tarot too!)

  Which book from Sylvia Plath’s library to review next? How about From Ritual to Romance, by Jessie L. Weston (thanks to Matthew Freeman for gifting this to me years ago). Notes on LibraryThing say Plath read this book 1954-55, wrote “Sylvia Plath 1958” inside of it, and that there is “much underlining” by Plath. […]
