Cut and Paste Tarot Deck Review

Cut and Paste Tarot Deck Review

  A lot of people asked about the deck I used for classes at NWTS. It’s the Cat Lynch Cut and Paste tarot and it’s great. A collage deck that’s not expensive, rather inclusive, with straightforward imagery that makes it easy to read but enough detail to keep it interesting to seasoned readers. Catlynch.com for all the card images and WhenSheepGoMoo on Etsy.

City Mystic New York Tarot Deck Interview

  It’s a great idea to ‘interview’ a new deck before you start to work with it, and many people rely on the following 6 card spread in that process for an effective intuitive exercise. (Six, you say? I often see seven (or eight!) in these posts. Yup, I can’t resist making this a Seven Card Spread.) I thought I’d continue with the idea of decks that focus on photos of places. The City Mystic New…

Questions for 2017

I’ve been quiet on this blog for a while. I’ve moved, changed jobs, and increasingly been sticking to Instagram for my social media fix. This doesn’t mean I haven’t been writing, working, and pulling cards. (In fact, any day now the Cartomancer is going to publish something of mine – super exciting!) Starting a few days ago, I returned to a project that has great meaning for me. For the past…

Weekly Planner Spread with Marseilles 1736 Tarot

Weekly Planner Spread with Marseilles 1736 Tarot

I’ve been using the Weekly Planner Spread from The Tarot Parlor for a while now with a few small adjustments. It’s become my default weekly spread, helping me to focus and set some intentions on a Sunday. This week I’ll admit to some nervousness with the Marseilles deck – it’s not one I normally read with. I was pleasantly surprised at how clear, cohesive and calm the reading was. For several…

Opposites Attract

I love putting together decks that seem like they have very little in common. Often the reading that results is unexpectedly insightful and richer than a reading from one deck alone. Case in point is the combination of the first two decks from my Deck of the Week challenge – the Rider-Waite-Smith and my DIY deck, the Red Moon Tarot. The other day, I was told my application for a plot in the local…

Advice From A Dowager Countess, Pt. 2

Advice From A Dowager Countess, Pt. 2

As I said in my last post, any reading I do with the Rider-Waite-Smith and Pixie’s Astounding Lenormand feels like Advice From a Dowager Countess. It’s like Maggie Smith is all dressed up as Dowager Lady Grantham and reading the cards in her most acidic voice. I started with a four card tarot reading about an upcoming business trip and got a clear answer. Now that I’ve seen what the tarot cards…

Advice From A Dowager Countess, Pt. 1

Advice From A Dowager Countess, Pt. 1

I am a fan of Downton Abbey, and an even bigger fan of Maggie Smith. I loved her as the sarcastic, demanding, cranky Dowager Countess. Who didn’t? She got the best line of every episode! Often when I am working with the Rider-Waite-Smith and the reading is particularly no-holds-barred or so spot-on it’s a touch mean, I think of Downton Abbey and the Dowager saying something like “Don’t be…
