Keepin this short… a little on grounding

2022-01-04T16:35:37-05:00June 5th, 2014|

I am a big advocate of grounding in energetic and magical practices. Why is it so important to ground and have your energy and center of being anchored in your body? Because your body is home to all sensory experience giving us the ability to touch that which is Divine. The next time you look in [...]

Birthright VS Entitlement

2022-01-04T16:35:45-05:00June 5th, 2014|

I think a lot about human quirks in regard to spiritual practice and our ability to manifest especially in the Pagan community.  The pop-psychology/ New Age trend of "thoughts become things" I think holds a piece of truth, yet misses the boat in a very fundamental way. It creates confusion between birthright and entitlement. If you [...]

Your tarot card for 6/2/2014: the Page of Cups

2022-01-04T16:35:53-05:00June 3rd, 2014|

Our tarot card for the week is the Page of Cups. He is the sensitive romantic soul that feels so much (sometimes too much) and is prone to day dreams. He is Water of Earth meaning that his dreams and emotions are embodied.  His capacity to feel intensely makes him powerfully compassionate to the needs of [...]

Death Becomes Us: Happy New Year

2022-01-04T16:36:10-05:00December 31st, 2010|

What can we say about the Death card? Culture has become so detached from the experience that some deem the whole concept of the end of physical existence as something horrible.  This speaks to attachment; attachment to a way of being, to a way of life, to a person, place or thing. Granted this is a [...]

The Devil and the Tower

2022-01-04T16:36:18-05:00December 1st, 2010|

We have just entered the Dark of the year. The world is in economic and political flux.  Many people are questioning, “Who am I?  What am I doing?  How did I get into this hand basket anyway?"  Most are being tested and retested in the midst of current change and those affected directly by everything from [...]

Tarot as a Divination Tool, My Perspective

2022-01-04T16:36:27-05:00September 19th, 2010|
