Tarot and the Covid-19 Crisis

I have been asked by a number of clients and friends if I have done any readings about the Covid-19 crisis. Usually, I decline this kind of thing. I have learned, after my many years with the cards, that they are meant for personal connections to people and situations. These cards are tools for how […]

2019 and The Tower Card

Ending the year always leaves me with mixed feelings. In our house, we didn’t have much of a Christmas this year because Tom was in the hospital, having his knee operation (see a couple posts earlier). I thought about what I might want to say here in the blog, recapping the highlights of 2019 and […]

Happy Halloween!

George Grombacher at Money Savage interviewed me for his podcast on this special day! Be safe everyone! #TalkingTarot

Another podcast!

I’m on another podcast! Loved doing this one with Marilyn Eagen and Michael Abney! I’m so happy they gave me time to talk about my Plath work and more. https://t.co/3XrIgNRdEm?amp=1

The Trip to Italy, via London

I am just back from two weeks in Italy. I took notes in my journal and thought I’d share with you here everything one might not hear everywhere else. That said, if you’re looking for landmarks and pictures of the Coliseum, look elsewhere (unless I have a picture of me with the Coliseum in the […]

I Got Faith. (Or at least, I’m working on it)

It has been a very busy couple of weeks, but then, I always say that. But more so than usual. I guested again on the Dave Glover Show (97.1 FM), for which I can’t feel more blessed. Dave and the gang are very real, cool people and this month, my visit coincided with another on-air […]

Arrive Alive

I get a lot of emails lately from self-help and spiritual gurus, lifestyle coaches and book marketing trainers, everyone from Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Kyle Cease, Prince Ea and on down to never-heard-of-’ems. Everyone is trying to set themselves up as the next great teacher. The ones I’ve named here are doing a great job at […]

The Major Arcana and Me, Part One

I updated my pen pal, Zulf, of my happenings over this week in line with the Major Arcana, and I thought I would share it with you too: The tarot season continues to consume me. RIght now, everything is tarot, and so is this blog post. We will begin with the Fool card, which belongs […]

Happenings… and What Shouldn’t Happen

Hi! Many of you know that this is my busy season for tarot reading, from October through to New Year’s, usually. If you’re trying to get me for a weekend Halloween party this year, I am all booked. In the daytime on October 20th and 21st, I will be working the Psychic Fair at It’s […]

Braving the Wilderness

I’ve had a couple readers ask me what’s going on besides old books(!). So this post will be a bit more newsy.  I’ve been deep into reading and writing other things (inc. the next Decoding Sylvia Plath book, which will be for her poem “Cut”), and writing for lots of blogs and online sites. I’m very pleased to […]
