My big news!
My kind and ever-patient newsletter subscribers got the news on Tuesday...but the rest of you are getting it, now! It's my pleasure to announce that my third book: The Morrigan: Celtic Goddess of Magick and Might, will be released in 2019 through Weiser Books....
Strange blessings
I sought a reading last week from an Ocha priest. He told me a story about Orula, an Orisha of Divination. I hope I do it justice with this retelling: Orula was traveling about and visited a small village. "Put out your baskets tonight," He said to the villagers. "For...
I’ve got a secret!!! (But I’ll tell you if….)
No, I am not: 1.) pregnant 2.) adopting a child or additional cat 3.) moving again BUT! I've got super secret news! via GIPHY A few hints. The news is: 1.) book related 2.) Magick related 3.) STILL A SECRET FOR NOW!!! Would you like to hear, first? I'm telling my...
Phases of The Fool
There are a handful of cards that I offer explanations for as soon as I start the reading. The Fool is one of them. Its very title sounds like an insult but as I try to remind students and querrents, the Fool is not foolish. In general, pulling it in a reading does...
Beltane…on your own!
Happy Summer! Yes, it's cool and grey where I'm at. The spring flowers have bust their blooms so it looks like winter all over again. But if you want to be old and fancy about things, Beltane is beginning of summer! (At least for the Celts back in the Iron Age.)...
Using Game of Thrones Tarot!
My website reverted back to its November, 2017 version. I lost months of blogs and my classes/events page is now woefully out of date! I had hoped to recover the information, but it hasn't happened, yet. I'd just posted a book review of King Billy and the Royal Road,...
Goody.
No, I've not ignored this site since November. But somehow, every post written since the 27th has been deleted. I don't know why, how, or anything like that. I hope I can get them back. But in the meantime, this site is still active. Sorry.
That one time I made friends with a vampire. (SID part 4…..)
First of all, thank you so much for all of your sweet emails, PMs, and kind words in passing. About a week ago, I took to the internet in tears when someone who had once been a friend had shut me out because of my impending move. While it's not about numbers so I...
Ghosts, Devils, and Stars…. (Self-Indulgent Drawl Part 3)
Guise, I really appreciate all of the love and support coming this way for this weird little project I've stumbled into. One day I realized I was avoiding a lot of people from Portland because I didn't end up doing any of the things I swore to hell and heaven I would...
Well. You asked for it….
Some of you Kittenz made the lethal mistake of telling me you liked yesterday's blog AND asked for more. It's all your fault. Stop now if you don't want to read more of my self-indulgent retelling of the nuclear meltdown that was my early twenties.... I'm also running...
Self-Indulgence. You’ve been warned.
It's been an emotional time. I've struggled to find the words. I think I said that in my last blog. I know my poor novel has suffered for it. I get up early in the morning and stare at blank pages and half-filled boxes. My husband and I are moving back to Oregon next...
The Wheel: Stalls and Movement (and both Tarot and Brigid)
I've been a delinquent blogger. It's been hard to write, lately. A friend of mine once said that you can't make art when you're living it. If so, I think we're all locked in a paint-by-number at the moment.... Forgive my blogs if the sentences run on or if they're...
