I wrote the title to this post a couple of weeks ago and for the life of me I can’t remember why.

The Tarot of Pay Wave
This might not be news to the rest of you but I was shocked today to learn from a cashier that it’s very unusual for peeps to pay with cash anymore – even for a $5 coffee.
I’m a cash person. Each week I take a certain amount of money out of my account and try to live within that budget. It helps me manage my money and brings me a great deal of satisfaction in seeing exactly what rewards my efforts bring.
But clearly I am in a teensy tiny minority.
This made me wonder about the psychology and the Tarot of Pay Wave… Continue reading
The Tarot Of Mental Illness Revisited
I promised a lovely lady on my Facebook page ages ago that I’d republish all my medical Tarot blogs. Here’s one I found. Sorry it took so long…
I’ve had way more experience of mental health issues in the last few years than I ever wanted to so I thought it might be time to tackle the Tarot of Mental Illness in more depth. Unsurprisingly the cards involved include those in the last section of Life Lessons Tarot (aka the Major Arcana). Note: These cards might turn up reversed in a reading about mental illness.
The Devil: Living in denial. An inability to face reality. Losing yourself in drugs. Denial that you have a mental illness. Continue reading
Sunday Spotlight – Five Of Pentacles: Hard Times
Hmm, interesting. I get this card all the time in my readings yet I’ve barely written about it on this blog. I obviously need to be pay it more attention. One of its meanings is going through hard times. Maybe you’ve lost your job or your income. Maybe you’re struggling to make ends meet. You definitely feel alone with your troubles. Sometimes though it’s more a case of feeling poor than actually living in poverty (cough cough).
If you do get the Five Of Pentacles remember Continue reading

FYI: The Medical Tarot
I thought we might have a look today at Tarot cards associated with medical issues. NOTE: Just because these cards turn up in a reading does NOT mean you have a medical condition. As I keep on saying, there are 50 shades of Tarot, 50 possible meanings (or thereabouts), for each card. Please take the following with a large grain of salt. Some I’m sure of. Others are educated guesses.
The Tarot of The Anne Hathaway Les Mis Parody
I’ve found another top video clip for your entertainment. A Les Mis spoof in which a pseudo Anne Hathaway begs Academy Members not to forget her dream come Oscar night to the tune of Fantine’s big song in Les Miserables ‘I Dreamed A Dream’. You can find the link at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4yxsRRnvkE&feature=player_embedded.
Hmmmmm. Not sure which card to file this one under.
The Tarot Of Lance Armstrong’s Confession
I started this post several weeks ago when it was the watercooler story of the day. Then put it on ice when I went away on holiday. But Lance’s very qualified confession makes it the story that just keeps on giving. There seem to be so many levels to his deception. A few more were explored tonight on a cutting edge Australian current affairs program ‘Four Corners’.
So let’s have a look at the Tarot of Lance Armstrong’s confession.
Death In Its Infinite Variety
My thoughts today are with the families and friends of those who have passed away during the once-in-a-lifetime weather event happening along the U.S. east coast. So I thought I’d explore different types of death Tarot style. Keeping in mind that the Death card doesn’t always mean someone is going to die. Far from it. But sometimes it does. Death during a freak event such as Hurricane Sandy would be represented as follows:
Five of Pentacles: It’s a Beautiful Beautiful Life!
Two people in ragged clothing walk barefoot in the snow looking mighty sore and sorry for themselves, ignoring the lighted window of what looks like a church (stained glass window) in their vicinity. It’s all very doom and gloom. As so many singers have sung, ‘Oh baby, it’s cold outside.’
As I mentioned yesterday this card has Continue reading
