I’m off to Bali tomorrow. Whoop whoop!
So I’ve been pondering the Tarot of travel.
A few cards spring to mind…

The Tarot of Joy
There are lots of different kinds of joy Tarot says we can experience in life.
Let’s have a sneak peak at them, starting with the image above. The card that fits the joy of a family letting themself be silly on a glorious sunshiny day is this one…
Continue readingMonday Musings: Turning Back Time
We all have those moments where we want to undo something.
Delete that sent email.
Rewind that conversation.
Reconnect with a lost friend.
Or a previous version of ourselves.
Do you think the desire to turn back time would be captured by this Tarot card…?
Continue readingOpening Old Wounds
My eyes are red and swollen.
I couldn’t stop bawling yesterday.
A beloved character in a TV show died.
Clearly, an over-reaction.
So what happened exactly?
Despite terrible reviews, I’m a big fan of the apocalyptic Netflix show, ‘The Rain’. In the penultimate episode of the entire series, my favourite character, Martin, bit the dust.
He reminded me a lot of my last boyfriend.
Six of Cups: Remembering happy times
Only better!
Knight of Cups: The ideal man
However, my mini-breakdown wasn’t about the character on tv, or even the old boyfriend.
It was about this..
The Fool + Two of Cups: The possibility of relationship
I was distressed that his partner lost the chance to grow old with him.
Which was a reflection of my distress at not having a life partner like him myself.
This is a classic example of this card…
Three of Swords: Opening old wounds
For no good reason, I felt consumed by grief.
Five of Cups: Crying over what you’ve lost, despite the good things in your life
The Three of Swords comes up when you’re reminded of a loss.
Even though you’ve done this…
Eight of Cups: Well and truly moved on
In fact, you feel like this…
Nine of Pentacles: Very content with your life
We all carry wounds in our hearts.
The longer we’ve lived, the more knives to the chest we’ve experienced.
People we’ve loved and lost.
Times when we were hurt deeply.
The important thing is not to be over-whelmed by these injuries.
Not to do this…
King of Cups Reversed: Drown your sorrows
Or this…
Six of Cups Reversed: Lose yourself in nostalgia or fantasy
Or even this…
The Moon Reversed: Succumb to a drug fuelled haze.
We have to keep moving forwards.
Carrying our secret griefs.
Using them to remind us to do this..
Judgement: Show compassion to one another
Always!
The Tarot of the Facebook Scandal
I heart this meme.
It’s been created in response to the current scandal surrounding Facebook which has seen many users ditch the social media platform. In the most damaging controversy to ever hit Facebook it has been accused of allowing another company to harvest personal data to influence the last U.S. election.
So which Tarot cards are involved? Continue reading
The Tarot of Valentine’s Day
O-oh! Valentine’s Day is almost upon us. You might love it. You might dread it. Either way, it elicits a response.
These are the cards that come to mind when I think of this day…

The Tarot Of Reading
Recently I stayed up reading till 6am. I’m hopeless. Once I start a good book I find it hard to put it down. For that reason I limit myself to reading on the holidays. Otherwise I’d get nothing done, lol. Three recent favorites are above. Let’s explore the Tarot of Reading, shall we?
Seven Of Pentacles Reversed: What’s The Point In Trying?
I’m having one of those days when I just can’t get my head straight. There’s a million things I could do but none of them seem to be getting me anywhere. So why bother? Which makes me think of this card…
The Tarot Of The Walking Dead
I’ve just finished mainlining series two of ‘The Walking Dead’. Seeing as how I can’t get those zombies out of my head I thought we might explore the Tarot of this television show.
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
