Folks, I have something new and exciting to share! It’s a 2.5-hour video (plus handouts) called 4 Elemental Stories of Tarot, and it’s available now for download. It all started years ago during an episode of the Fortune’s Wheelhouse podcast. My co-host Mel and I were talking about Cups as a watery suit, and we got to thinking about how they might relate to the Hanged Man, which corresponds to elemental water. Whoa! I thought. What a fascinating idea. I made a note to myself to think about it later.

I finally drew the Death card today, for the first time this year. By May of most years, I’ve seen every card at least once during my daily draws. But this year, Death has kept his spectral distance, and given that we are all being stalked by a 0.12-micron-sized, coronavirus-shaped reaper these days, I’ve been okay with that.

But when Death surfaced this morning I knew there was a reason that had nothing to do with the depredations of covid-19. Just five days ago, Minnesota resident George Floyd was murdered by a white police officer. While it’s not wrong to say Floyd’s death was a tragedy, “tragedy” implies something inevitable, and I refuse to accept that we can only shake our heads and submit.

As many of you know, I offer virtual readings you can schedule yourself via Skype/Zoom. I also do a limited number in-person readings at Inspirit Crystals in Northampton, on Thursdays. However, as of this week, I’m suspending in-person readings out of respect for the public health crisis. Instead - and this is good news for you - I will be offering phone/Skype/Zoom readings Thursdays 1-6pm, at the same rate you would have been able to book them in person. (That’s half my normal rate, so it’s a really good deal.)

If you would like to book a reading during the Thursday 1-6pm limited window, call Inspirit Crystals at 413-585-1169, and they will arrange your appointment.
