 |   My blog--I pull a card--if it doesn't speak to me...perhaps it is for you? |
I pull a card...if it doesn't speak to me...perhaps it was meant for you?    How to Read the Tarot Begin by brewing a cup of tea, a nervine, lemon balm or chamomile, this is after all, your future. A reading at the dark of the moon is best, before the night creatures crawl and bad humours fill the air. Pick a circular deck, with a fairy-tale motif, and no reversals. Hold a question in your heart, shuffle the cards and place them on the table. Choose only two. Like the ancient Israelites, these are your seer stones, Urim and Thumimm, black and white, yes or no. Isn't that all you were asking?  |

| January 8, 2022 I have a collection of tarot cards. I have decided instead of pulling a random card from a deck I am going to concentrate on the Death card from individual decks. I have thought about death a great deal over the course of these past 2 Covid years. I am 70 with co-morbidities and I work in healthcare. I was concerned enough that at the beginning of this plague my husband and I had wills drawn up. Yesterday I learned that a member at the adult dementia day stay where I work had tested positive for Covid. And yes, I have been exposed. So far, asymptomatic, and of course I am fully vaccinated. I am self-isolating this weekend just to be cautious, unlike most Floridians who don't give a rat's ass. I am home making Marcella Hazan's tomato, butter, and onion sauce. I pulled the Death card from The Cook's Tarot. The message is actually positive--you are beginning a new cycle and discarding old ways of being. I will remember this as I poor Marcella's rich and unctious sauce over pasta, and raise a glass of healing anti-oxidant red wine. And today is National JoyGerm Day. So go spread Joy and not Covid! Death--XIII--The Cook's Tarot--Embrace what life has to offer----including leftovers. The Death Card is also associated astrologically with Scorpio--my Sun and Moon sign. |
