    When a New Answer Comes Up for Tarot with Lady Saoirse

      Bright Blessings, Don’t you love it when somebody asks you a specific question in a Tarot reading, and you start getting information to answer a completely different issue? I’ve had this come up for me when people were asking about romance especially. The people who are asking about a new person who doesn’t seem to be interested in them or isn’t’ putting time into the relationship tend to have underlying issues that draw them to people that ignore them. It’s hard to admit to yourself that someone isn’t interested in you when you’re so crazy about them and I’d say at least 20% of the readings that I give…

    Deck Review-The Awakening Tarot: An Elemental Approach by Monica Bodirsky

    Deck Review The Awakening Tarot: An Elemental Approach By Monica Bodirsky Publisher: Red Feather Mind Body Spirit 78 Card Tarot Deck, 287 Page Full Color Guidebook, in a sturdy, magnetically closed box Release Date: March 28th, 2024 The Awakening Tarot: An Elemental Approach is a strangely beautiful deck that takes Tarot to its wild foundations in nature and daily life. The artwork is a bit macabre and fit for those who like the strange, quirky and different. The difference in artwork, card names and symbolism doesn’t subtract from the readability of the deck, either; instead, I would argue that it adds to it, at least for me, it did. I’ve been…

    Deck Review-Bonefire Tarot by Gabi Angus-West

    Deck Review Bonefire Tarot By Gabi Angus-West Publisher: Schiffer Press 78 Card Tarot Deck, 187 Page Guidebook, in a sturdy box Release Date: November 28th, 2016 Bonefire Tarot has been out for a while now, originally released in late 2016, with a 2nd edition being released in 2023. I’ve seen this deck on bookstore and metaphysical shop shelves time and again throughout the years, but never picked it up. Not because I didn’t like the artwork (which is beautiful), but because it never really “called” to me before. After years of curiosity about this deck, I finally have my hands on one!     Bonefire Tarot features artwork based on classical tattoo…

    Deck Review The Legend of Sleepy Hollow Tarot: Headless Horseman Edition By Nick Lawyer Publisher: Red Feather Mind Body Spirit 78 card Tarot deck with a 111 page guidebook, in a beautifully designed hardcover box Release Date: August 28, 2024 Let me start this review off by saying that, when the original edition of this deck was released, I was tempted to purchase it, but never did.
