“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” — John 14:6

My partner and I were discussing how she ought to go about switching jobs. She’s not satisfied with where she is at and has contemplated pursuing bartending full time as opposed to her day job.

We asked the cards for insight on how to formulate a plan to make this transition in a series of steps. The cards were perfectly straight forward in giving these three pairs:

What is certain is that we have developed the skill to cultivate our resources. Results are deliberated and a system for gain is already set in motion. (Page of Coins + The Sun)

Where there is the opportunity for a new experience that brings us joy, there is potential and we may allow the circumstance to unfold. (Ace of Cups + The Fool)

While we are running with our aspirations, they won’t come to fruition unless we bring them to a trusted place where we can learn to control and direct them. This ordeal must be a test of our ethics. If we endure it then we will move on and gain the most from our experience. (Knight of Cups + The Heirophant)

Actually Tarot

Over the past year or so I’ve fallen immensely behind on countless projects due to an extremely excessive work schedule (I work 50 to 60+ hours a week as a line cook) and in that time I’ve managed to injure myself by lacerating my hand at said job, rendering one of my fingers nearly useless so I can no longer play music as I’d wish to, amongst other things. However, until this is all resolved, there is one thing that I have time to do in the late night hours – I’ll read your tarot cards. I read tarot over the internet for free and I will accept all inquiries, anonymous or public, privately or not and with or without a specific question in mind. Just ask for cards and I will pull them and translate what I see. The Ordinary Tarot blog is updated with readings regularly.

For user surfinwiththeshah:

The Sun sees that you did not have a question in mind but does not hesitate in radiating its love and does not request the details as to why you need it – so I won’t either. Six Coins demonstrate how to receive this love by putting all gains that offset balance towards serving others and taking every loss in stride in faith that your source is limitless, always recurring. You very well may already have what you need.

SHIRTLESS THUGS 2013

[danrossiter]

This is the first press shot of Shirtless Thugs; an American hard-punk group from Philadelphia, PA, originating in Guam. They play their own unique and juicy brand of often fast hard-punk, with facetious lyrical themes of shoplifting, public humiliation, self debasement and inverted narcissism. 

Pictured from left to right: Grinch Ass Ice Man, Gary Sinise IV, Free Powerade, Serpent Fantasy, 8 Tha Whole Thang (Not pictured: Mike "Pinto" Pinon).
