On the spiritual side the question that I am asked the most is...
"How long have you been reading the Tarot Cards?" I have been reading the cards for over 30 years. I was drawn to the Tarot as an art form first and as I started shuffling the cards and reading for my friends for the next few months, I became amazed at the accuracy of the readings and how they provided hope for those who asked the questions. My first deck was the Aquarian deck. However, now I feel comfortable using the Universal Waite, the Motherpeace Round, Hanson-Roberts, Merry-Day and the Cosmic Tribe decks, the latter being one of the newest. I have a collection of over 45 decks and it is growing. As I started using the cards more and more, I became affiliated with a professional astrologer and we combined our services for a time. Now, I incorporate Astrology with every reading. Lately, I have been drawn to the Runes and Runecasting and I am currently devouring anything written on this subject. I would like to incorporate the Runes into every reading as well. I have my Sun in Aries, my Moon in Aquarius, and my Rising Sign is in Capricorn. My Sun and Mercury are conjunct in the 3rd house--so many people think that I am a Gemini. I have Scorpio on the Mid-heaven, with Neptune in Libra conjunct which gives me an interest in beautiful and spiritual things. And naturally, I became drawn to the earth based belief system and worshipped as a solitary practitioner for many years. I was one of the founding members and the secretary for a local Pagan Temple and Coven. I have recently resigned so I may devote more of my time and energies into writing and teaching. I teach the Tarot at the College of Metaphysical Studies, check them out at www.cms.edu. I am also an ordained Minister. I believe the Universe has provided the Tarot deck's images as tools for empowerment and positive affirmations and that is how a reading should be done for others. The querants should walk away from their readings with a clear picture of their choices for future decision making and with very defined hopes for the future.
Personal stuff...
I have lived in Florida off and on for over 30 years. I was born in Detroit and have lived in Texas, Nebraska, Colorado, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Washington, DC, and Athens, Greece. I spent four years in Military Intelligence and I have worked in diverse career fields since then. I am currently in a committed relationship, live by the water, assist my boyfriend with his business, (see www.maxpages.com/detaila2z or www.itsmysite.com/detaila2z) and love my pets and all other animals and my home. I am learning how to be a "Crafty" Pagan for some spare income and I have recently become involved in the research of endangered species that are indigenous to the state of Florida. In my spare time, I walk, swim, surf on the Internet, study mass media, Advertising and Marketing, read, paint, write, sing and listen to all kinds of music, go to the beach, watch movies, make gemstone jewelry and other crafts, and spend time with my guy and my loved ones. Having knowledge on all kinds of subjects is of great importance to me, I like to be well informed. I love to communicate with others and look forward to hearing from anyone who peruses this web site. You can catch me online under this same screen name on the AIM, Yahoo or MSN Instant Messengers. Here are the links to my new MSN and Yahoo Groups, come and stay for a spell...
