Feeling crampy and taking some time out of that late-spring busy-ness for some Tarot and reflection. Is there any more beautiful deck than the Spacious Tarot? Not sure, not sure . . . . #tarot #tarotobsessed #tarotspreads #tarotreader #divination #tarotforevolution #revolutionarytarot #tarotreflection (at Staunton, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgYP68nGav/?igshid=1m3ujssxp9adv

E M P E R O R Y E A R C H E C K - I N 🌟 Well, how’s your Emperor year going so far? We’re halfway through and learning a lot about this card. The Emperor maintains foundations and boundaries. Covid is challenging the borders of our very bodies, searching for safety inside the borders of our own homes. But, let’s look at the amazing uprising going on across our country right now – officially the largest civil rights movement in our history. The Emperor is ruled by war god Aries. The Emperor is foundations and boundaries, it’s true, but it also knows that sometimes one has to go to war to protect those boundaries. The Emperor has a lot to teach us about the transformative power of anger, and the importance of being willing to risk your own comfortable position in order to build a better world. The Emperor stands strong, more concerned with results than politeness or respectability. 🌟 This movement is not some sudden phenomenon. Black people and their allies have been working for decades to build a solid foundation that centers community and mutual aid. The Emperor shows us from a movement perspective, when you take the slow road to cultivating strong foundations you will have the strength to win when it’s time to fight. The Emperor also shows us that from a larger societal lens, when the foundation has cracks in it (aka institutionalized white supremacy) the structure resting on top cannot stand, and will have to be completely rebuilt. 🌟 And this comes back around to the Emperor's connection to our individual power. How can we use our power to contribute to the movement? Smart, committed activists of color (Cargle, Oluo, and Newsome come to mind) have offered lots of suggestions, but we have to take the action. This is Emperor work, recognizing that the highest ideal of this archetype is someone who owns their power, takes responsibility for it, and uses it to serve their people. Be royal out there, my babes! 🌟 How are you all seeing the Emperor show up this year? I love hearing new perspectives on these complex and beautiful symbols. . . .

Been a while since I got a new deck, but I've been dying to get my hands on this one from Spanish artist Jonasa Jaus and he *very* briefly put out this Fourth edition of his deck a few weeks ago. Aren't you obsessed with this purple, black, and olive green color palette? . . .

Black locust flowers and coconut cream as a pancake topping. My daughter is obsessed with edible flowers (aren't we all?) and made this incredibly light and decadent treat for us! Maybe I don't hate homeschooling. (J/k it's hell. I specifically made a baby with a math genius and sent her to school so I would never have to be the one to teach her fractions and here we freaking are.)

What is a Tarot Compliment? It's a three card tarot reading all about your very best qualities. It's a sparkly, colorful handmade postcard that shows up in the mail. It's unique every time. It's personal, it's magical, and it's both lighthearted and surprisingly profound. A great treat for yourself or an awesome way to remind your friends how much you love them while you have to stay apart. Get yours in my shop, along with more detailed reading options! (Link in bio). . . . These samples in the picture are for my animal people, cause I felt like it would sort of ruin the magic if I shared one I made for a human person. Still, the readings were stupid accurate for each animal. . . . . #tarotreader #soultarot #tarotbusiness #cardslinger #cardslingersofinsta #socialdistancing #quarantine #alonetogether https://www.instagram.com/p/CAQ7ksZHMn1/?igshid=p4yxtm0v9lat

What Lessons did April Have for Me? 🌟 Page of Wands 🌟 Oh heeeey Page of Wands. Long time no see. April was definitely a month of reconnecting with my soul, and getting comfortable with slowing way down. I think there are also lessons here for me about how spiritual fulfillment doesn't have to just come from productivity. . . . #wildsoulgiveaway #tarot #tarotreader #tarotnerd #tarotobsessed (at Staunton, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_lZrRcHm6n/?igshid=961uwqk0bjil
