Tarotcise: Summer Plans

I love Tarotcises from The Tarot Lady.  I've said many times that I don't read for myself, but these exercises aren't quite....reading for yourself.  It's investigation, it's recognizing and defining the keywords you see in the cards.  I read on mainly on intuition.  I see a story in the cards and tell it.  The exercises help me find new meaning in the cards.

Okay Tarotistas - it's time for a little Tarotcise! I want you to consciously pick a card that describes your summer plans. Then shuffle your deck, and pull one to see what you need to know to get your summer on properly. Go: Powered by socialditto  24 likes ·  18 comments

Yes/No Tarot Spreads

There's many different opinions about yes/no spreads and whether we should do them.  As a reader it is inevitable that eventually someone is going to ask you a yes or no question, some readers refuse to read for these instead having their querants revise the question so it's open-ended.

For those that do read these questions there are two main popular methods.  The first is using upright cards as "tick points" for a yes and reversals for a no.  Based on how many of these cards appear in the spread determines whether the answer is a yes or no, then the cards are read to give further insight into the answer.  The other method is to do a basic 3-5 card free-form reading, in this way it is upon the reader to determine the answer to the question.

Phoenyx? What's a Phoenyx?

Today I thought I'd share with you the story behind my name.  Where did the term "Phoenyx Jewels" come from?  Why don't I spell phoenix correctly?  It's actually a very personal journey and, to be fair, really starts in 2004 when I decided to change my religion from Christianity to Wicca (to the horror of my parents).

Question of the Day: What's the difference between innocence and ignorance?

Let's start with the textbook definitions.  Innocence is a freedom from guilt or sin through being unacquainted with evil.  Ignorance is the state or fact of being ignorant, a lack of knowledge, education, or awareness.  Unfortunately our court of justice doesn't differ between the two at all, whether you are aware you broke the law or not, you are still getting in trouble for it.  Truly it's a case of human moral.
