The Tarot of Holiday Recovery

There was no chance to write blog posts while I was away or for the first five days I’ve been back. Travelling on your own is exhausting, plus I got the usual Bali belly and other ailments one picks up when moving around from place to place. I’ve needed recovery time.

Let’s explore that a little.

First, there’s this…

The Tarot of Mother’s Day

Ah, another Mother’s Day has come and gone.

That beautiful day when mums get to sleep in and their children bring them toast with a little bit too much Vegemite* spread over the top and gift presents bought at their school Mother’s Day stall, such as chocolates they actually want to eat themselves.

Mums are, of course, represented by this Tarot card…

Saturday Night Fight Club: The Four of Swords Vs The Hanged Man

The Four of Swords and The Hanged Man both involve men having some kind of rest.

So what’s the difference between them?

A key to this difference is their location in the Tarot deck. The Four of Swords is part of the Minor Arcana, which deals with everyday situations. Whereas, The Hanged Man is part of the Major Arcana. A much more profound part of Tarot.

Let’s look at them more closely…

The Tarot Of Christmas Holidays

As some peeps begin to return to work after the long Christmas-New Year break I thought it might be a good time to explore the Tarot of these holidays.

10 Wands

Ten Of Wands: How we feel before the holidays begin. Over-burdened. Exhausted. Especially at Christmas time when present shopping and school concerts and card sending and work functions are added to the usual load.

Four Of Swords: While I Was Sleeping…

4 Swords

Wowser! While I was sleeping I gained a 100 more FB followers and a few more on this blog. Aw, shucks. And here I was thinking you’d all desert me (fair enough too) because I’ve been so slack. I’d like to think I provide quality content which stands the test of time and this suggests that maybe I do. Thanks for sticking by me through the thick and (very) thin. I had no idea an hour ago that I was about to write a slew of posts, it just happened. And that’s how I want this blog on Tarot cards to be: propelled by intuition. As a good friend of mine said recently, she can always tell when I’m not on fire. I don’t want to let you down by writing when I’m not at my best (although let’s face it, I probably still will from time to time, lol.) I guess I’ll see ya when I see ya.
