Sharing the joy of Tarot.
I have been having trouble finding a mix in my day. I've been really busy, and so I'm not doing the fun stuff, or the laundry for that matter. It's all work, and working from home this can be an issue for me. The other day I pulled out the 4 of pents, and the Fool, I got the focus but not the fun. So I went through the Tarot of Dreams, and I think I'm going to pull 3 cards, the Ace of Cups, the Two of Pents, and the Chariot. When I'm pulling a focus card like this, I'm doing so visually, not so much the underlying meaning.

The card I drew today for my Daily from the Tarot of Dreams is:
The High Priestess

Should be a quite and reflective day, and one where I need to remember to spend some time in prayer or meditation. It is also a reminder to remain calm in conflict. If I find myself in any unpleasant situation all I have to do is close my eyes, and remember the peace of the High Priestess.
Receive my Tarot of Dreams (TOD) yesterday, and today I bought a house. Well, I made an offer, so I thought I'd do a Yes or No straight up with the deck to see what I get from it. I tend to use the passive suits (swords/cups) as no, and the active suits (fire/pentacles) as yes, with the Majors as up in the air. Courts are iffy. Shuffled and drew: 5 of Wands, Devil, 9 of Wands. So the answer is a yes, with some things not quite resolved that could change the outcome.
Just placed my order for the Tarot of Dreams. I'm sooooo happy Ciro decided to produce this in a standard edition. I didn't order it when the special edition was offered. I wanted to wait for the Legacy, which I love love love. After getting the Legacy I was sorry I hadn't gotten the TOD, now I have :) Very excited and happy now.

I make all kinds of rules, lists, and todos in my head, and that's where they stay. I have tons of things todo, should do, could do, need to do. I tell myself, later, tomorrow, soon. Soon what would have taken 5 minutes becomes an all day project.
Well I've done a successful update to Drupal :)
Last night I had a reading with an intuitive. I had received a triplet reading through TFL that left me with a few questions. The triplet reading answered what I asked, but lead to more questions. So as I was doing a reading trade thought I might as well ask what it is I'm not seeing.
Watch for information from our Sunday Chats. Individual card information as well as how they group.
Oxford American Dictionary states: ta·rot (ta-roh) n. 1. a deck of twenty-two cards with special pictures, used in fortunetelling. 2. a game played with a pack of seventy-eight cards that are used also for fortunetelling.
Is this all the Tarot is? I don't believe so; that however is my belief. Any and all definitions in addition to the above are just that; beliefs. I believe, my Truth of the Tarot, is that it is a tool for personal and spiritual growth.
