Let’s take a look at the imagery of this card, which brings all the ingredients into the sturdy mixer to combine together for the balance we need. Add equal parts of joy and sorrow, anger and forgiveness, justice and compassion. Mix on
Relax, People Tell You All The Time, But How Do You Do It?
Relax is easy to say, but often very hard to do. I hear it all the time, you just need to relax. What they don’t tell me is how to go about it. Oh sure, they say just breathe, do yoga or meditate, but how do I shut off my mind so I can actually do any of these things. While I just usually say thanks for the advice and then go off and figure out my own way to relax, I didn’t take into account how many other people are just like me. This was actually brought to my
Tarot Card of the Week: The Ten of Pentacles
Tarot Card of the Week: August 24 – August 30 Ten of Pentacles Pentacles are a suit of money and material things, tangible in the here and now. The number ten represents completion through perfection. This week’s card, the Ten of Pentacles, is from the Deviant Moon Tarot by Patrick Valenza. While the picture on the card may seem a little ominous, and people fear a pentacle, I promise this is one good card to get in a reading. The Ten of Pentacles is represented by the Lord of Wealth, it is the element of Earth, the earth signs of the Zodiac:
Tarot Card Reading, Frightened or Enlightened
Tarot card readings, frightened or enlightened, depending on the deck being used, I can see why some can cause you to be more frightened than enlightened. What most people do not understand about the pictures they portray, the meaning is still the same and really depends on where they fall in a reading or the question being asked. The unknown is always frightening, and the tarot seems to be an unknown place for so many people. They are often portrayed on television as something only used by dark witches using black magic and that is far from the truth. They will
Tarot Card of The Week Six of Wands
Tarot Card of the Week: Jun 3 – June 9, 2015 Six of Wands The Six of Wands, taken from the Crystal Visions Tarot, is a card of victory, triumph and success, so a very good card for an outcome. Wands represent fire, and the Six of Wands reflects the Zodiac sign of Leo. We can see all of this in the picture depicted on the card. The champion emerges from the struggle as a hero. He stands on a mountain top holding a torch of victory in one hand and a crystal ball in the other, a symbol of
Skeptical of Psychic or Tarot Readings, It’s Okay
I have a confession to make here: even though I have been doing these readings for many years, I went through a couple of bouts of being skeptical myself. While I know that may seem strange for someone like me to say, but it’s the truth. There were times when I didn’t want to do this work because I was afraid of saying the wrong thing and hurting people. Other times, I couldn’t help but wonder if what I was putting in my readings were actually just my own thoughts of how I wanted things to be for the person
Staying True To Yourself In A Relationship
Changing you or allowing someone else to control you means you are not staying true to yourself in a relationship. When I say relationship, this can not only mean a love relationship but also friends and family. You are either changing yourself to fit the relationship or allowing someone else to change you to the person they want you to be, not the real you. This doesn’t mean the being on your best behavior on a first date or just meeting someone. What I mean here is you either change your whole persona or allowing someone else to control what
True Love Or Just In Love With The Idea Of Love
Christmas, New Years, Valentine’s Day are all holidays that seem to bring out the marriage proposals. Now with those holidays in our rear view mirror, it’s time to take the next step and get caught up in the frenzy of wedding planning, or is it? Maybe I watch too many Life Time movies but it seems to me that not all the proposals were well thought out before they were made. In olden days, the prospective groom went to the father of the prospective bride to ask her hand in marriage before he actually proposed. Some families still have that
Social Media, Helping or Hurting Your Relationship
Every day I log onto a social media site, someone is spreading their intimate life secrets across the globe. Not just their thoughts, anger, disappointments, but some even add complete details. Funny how someone else mentions some things are too personal and they get a nasty reply that it’s none of their business. If you post it for all your friend’s list, not to mention the public, you just made it everyone’s business. Silly me, I use social media to promote my business, keep in touch with family and friends, find recipes or interesting ideas and get to share pictures
Knowing What You Don’t Want In A Relationship
How often do we hear people saying they have a list of things they want to find in a relationship? I don’t think I ever hear anyone saying what they don’t want. When talking about relationships, be they friends, family or love, most people have a good idea of what they expect to get or what they should give. Most never consider what they really don’t want in those type of relationships. In love relationships, we often focus on looks, financial success and the list goes on of good qualities. Do we ever focus on the bad qualities we don’t
A Relationship With Your Ex, Good or Bad Idea
It’s hard being single for the holidays, but it seems the hardest time to be alone is Valentine’s Day. That’s usually the time most people start rethinking if they should have broken up with their partner and if they should take them back. Is trying to go back to a relationship with your ex really a good idea? Let me just say, instead of thinking about how you can get your ex back, you might want to remember why they are an ex. If they cheated on you before, chances are really good they will cheat again. Was the relationship
Making Necessary Changes For The New Year
As we head into the New Year, social media is filled with people posting their resolutions for the coming year. Dieting and exercise are two of the most common things being posted. It won’t take long before the excuses begin to appear why those resolutions are going down the drain. You have to cook for your family, so it’s hard for you to diet. Diet food is too expensive and you are too busy to follow through. You can’t afford a gym membership, you don’t like going to the gym alone, or you are too busy. Looks like the same
