Tarot Tuesday
Happy NaNo to all who celebrate! This week I pulled a divination spread from @awitchalone. Y’all, it’s going to be an emotional kind of week. It’s all cups and wands. On the one hand, there is a balance here, with both masculine (wands) and feminine (cups) energies represented. They are both warm suits, associated with…

Reading Assignment

Tarot Tuesday
I asked a money question and got a bunch of coins. That’s got to be a good sign, right? The queen is about balance, security, nurturing. The seven is about patience, perseverance, investing in the future, sustainability. The Hierophant is a teacher or mentor who supports tradition and convention.
