This is very much a beginning, learning project, to pave the way for more e-books to follow including "Modern Oracle: Intuition for the 21st Century" :)

Triquetra: The Dance of Worlds is a collection of poetry in three parts. Part one is inspired by nature, part two by philosophy and spirituality, the third part by relationships of all kinds..."that place where two worlds meet and begin to dance."

Wisdom from the Kitchen

I was reading for a client earlier today, and the death card came up.

Before you go wiggy about it ... NO...it has nothing to do with anyone dying.

It has to do with change. "life is never the same again" kind of change. 

Not all change is bad. Not all death is dying. Sometimes old ways "die out"...for the better. Aren't we all glad slavery was abolished? What about people who truly overcome addiction? That was the "old them"...that "other" person is in a symbolic sense dead to them. Or at least in a serious coma.

In that same symbolic, conceptual sense we all evolve, grow, change and mature as time goes one. Our "old self" is gone. 

Crazy as it sounds, it reminds me a little of something I saw on FoodNetwork. Yes, a cooking show...I know, not exactly what you would connect to the death card ( I hope! ) But follow this logic...

It was one of those contest shows and the chefs were being required to cook outside of their usual cuisine...way out of their comfort zone, and one stressed chef made the comment "This isn't me"

I love Alton Brown's response to that (heck, I love just about everything A.B. has ever done on FoodTV). He said something on the order of  "Not you? No, this just is a you that you haven't seen before"

The death card is a little like that. The old "us" passes away and makes room for the new "us"...we keep the good, let go of the bad, and are given the chance at "rebirth" into something better. 

You are still you...just not a "you" that you've seen before.

Thank you Mr. Brown.

Today's Tarot - 4 of Coins

Motivation takes a special sort of self-reliance. It isn't up to other people to inspire us. If we feel uninspired, it is up to us to find the inspiration that we need, or, alternatively, accept that we might need a break or a change of pace. What is feeling uninspired telling you? 


Why not OWN it when we feel uninspired or unmotivated? Maybe we need that rest, and are preventing a bigger problem by heeding that warning. Taking a pragmatic approach to things today might just be the inspired decision to make.


Motivation is like happiness...we are mostly about as motivated and inspired as we make up our minds to be. The best inspiration is what we find for ourselves in others, or best of all, find within.

Today's Tarot - The Star

Persist, even when inspiration isn't obvious. The stars still shine even when it is cloudy.

Today's Tarot - King of Cups

King of Cups: Listen to life and it will guide you.

Every student is a master, and every master is a student. Inspiration can pop up anywhere, any time and come from anyone. It can even exist in little pieces of cardboard (like Tarot). Carl Jung called these meaningful coincidences "synchronicity". Synchronicity is the language of spirit, inspiration and guidance.

Wishing you a day of happy synchronicity.
