| My thoughts on the Tarot, and other things. I view each reading as a chance to see more of ourselves. A reading can be seen as a mirror, a way to see deeper into ourselves, in ways that we might not otherwise. A reading can also help in seeing what you want for tomorrow, or at least what options are there, and guide you towards the right one. I do not think that any reading can tell you exactly what to do, but I do think that what is seen in a reading can be helpful in making a choice, if by no other means than by pulling our thoughts together and helping us to focus. Does that mean that I think there is nothing Spiritual? No. It means that the cards can only show options, they can not take all things into consideration and be exact. Each time you decide something you have changed paths and the tarot only goes so far, to the fork in the road, glimpsing up the available ways seen, showing the little paths available before that next fork.. Whether the Tarot allows you see through to tomorrow by Spiritual ways or not is up to you to decide. That is a personal opinion. How I read. I have 5 Decks that I use right now.. Which Deck I use depends upon my mood. Layouts also vary according to mood and time allowed. I will switch layouts if I feel that the one I am trying is not clear. Although, I do think the 15 card spread gives the most insight. I will also change decks if I feel that I need to. This is not based on anything other than 'feeling'. A reading can take anywhere from an hour or so to a few days. I won't even try a reading if I am distacted, or if I don't think that I can devote myself to it. Even still, even under perfect conditions, sometimes a reading just does not go right, or feel right. Any reading that I do is done with actual cards. I do not use any computer programs. The divinitory meanings I use are a mix from the books and decks I have read and used over the years. Do I think that this is Evil, or that I am dealing with evil beings? NO. I do not believe in actual and pure Evil, or pure Good. Demons / Angels, who am I to judge who is which? So, please don't preach to me. The Gods of today may be the Demons of tomorrow. To much of either darkness or light can blinding. |

| Questions, we all have them. Yet, there seem to be so few answers to the things that we really want to know. |
| I do not believe in absolute good or absolute evil, they are different sides of the same coin. Perspective means everything. |
| Is death an ending or is it just a beginning that we are not yet prepared for ? |
| I don't claim to have all the answers, or at least not the only answers. |
| For the sceptic, the Tarot is a form of meditation, a mirror into the mind. We ask ourselves to see what we should do. The reader only lights the mirrors, or paths. We knew all along what they were, we just wanted someone to point them out to us. For some, the Tarot is spiritual. A way for Spirit Guides, Angels, Demons, Ancestors, Devils or Gods to speak to them. A voice from beyond the grave, or beyond the Earthly Realm. I see the Tarot as peeks at available paths, options, ways that we can choose to go, not ways that we have to go. They are enlightenment, but not absolute truth. Each time we choose a path we change the course that we are on, each change brings with it different influences, and new choices. |
| Can love exist without hate? |
| Mirrors sometimes cast a cold, horrifying glow on our image. |
| A burning forest makes room for budding trees. |
| Can you really know Pleasure without knowing Pain? |
| Look closely. Are you really sure? Is it a moth or a butterfly? An Angel or A Demon? They all have wings you know. |
| Burning embers and shining lights look so alike, is there really a difference? |
