Blogger’s note:  One of my favorite things, even as a small child, was the encyclopedia.  I looked up everything; then I read the other articles on the same page!  40 years later when I got the software necessary to connect my computer to the internet and saw the Yahoo web page and what I could look up, I sat and cried.  I had found the ultimate encyclopedia – what I could learn about was totally up to me.  Day after day, I got up at 4 AM and stayed up way past…

At no time in recorded history have people been more connected.  We have networks that send information at the speed of light into smartphones, tablets, and computers.  The most popular tools on these networks encourage you to tell the world who you are, where you are, and what you believe.  Granted, this is a voluntary activity; you may choose to participate in a small way, or not at all.  However, the younger you are, the more you participate – it’s expected…

The requests were overwhelming  for this particular show – can we ask the cards why the Boston Marathon was bombed.  Actually, this request was not over this lone act; with all the radical noise about gun control on the heel of the tragedy at Sandyhook Elementary, many people have been asking for some kind of an answer to the unsettling state of our society.  We seem to be bouncing from one disaster or crisis to another; and people are weary.  The blame game and the…

This month's guests on Positive Perspectives Radio include Tarot author & blogger Bonnie Cehovet and her new co-author Brad Jarrett Tesh "Seek Joy...Toss Confetti",  Tarot author Anna Burroughs Cook "Tarot Dynamics Unleashed", London, UK Astrologer Andrew Morton "Empowering Your Inner Sun", Psychic Channel Susan Rawlings, Rev. Pat Beers and Psychic Medium Melinda Carver. …

Our scientific research goes along at a blinding pace.  The reason most of us aren’t aware of it is because it’s more about the money than a positive benefit for mankind.  Some companies abandon promising research because there is more money studying a different field.  Some companies sell technologies to their governments where they are swept into a cloak of darkness for future weapons (this is where a lot of conspiracy theories come from).  But it seems that the…

Since we have had so many new members on both the Tarot Guild Facebook page as well as professional members, I wanted to take a few minutes and explain a very interesting experiment that the Guild is involved in.

In 2011, many readers who jointly read…

When I started the research for this show, I expected to find some very interesting cutting-edge theories about what allowed people to live well beyond 100.  I knew that anthropologist and gerontologists had visited villages where a large number of people had extended lives, and I had hoped for a something exotic to talk about – something to make us think.  However, all of the articles and blogs I discovered focused on…

People always ask me at expos and fairs "How do I choose a Tarot deck?"  There are hundreds of decks to choose from and it can be very intimidating to someone new to Tarot. There are the old standbys like the Rider-Waite, Thoth, and Morgan-Greer, plus hundreds of new "themed" decks like Steampunk, Angels, Goddess, Vampires, various animals and more.  Tarot decks are published by US Games, Llewellyn, Lo Scarabeo, Hay House and many other…

Gimme that old time religion,

Gimme that old time religion!

Gimme that old time religion,

It’s good enough for me…

Many people alive today have the experience of being born into a family that practices an organized religion.  Many people grow up and are happy; many grow up and fear everything because of that…

First of all, the most unexpected aspect of this U-Predict show was the number of reversed cards pulled by the Reading Room.  Reversals can be read a number of ways; reversals can be interpreted as the opposite meaning of an upright card, reversals can be thoughts or events happening under the nose of the client without their awareness, or reversals can represent underdeveloped ideas or events that the client needs to investigate further. Because we are talking…

Pull the world, you should have it!  But if the card is reversed, it means your missing out - big!  Are you too sure that you're going to have everything?  Are you too humble to realize how good you are?  If you can figure it out you can sync up your life.…

What Tarot Card Describes You Right Now - this is the question posed this week by the Tarot Translation Group on Facebook, and a very easy one for me this week.

I have never seen the cards come to attention with a definitive answer so quickly.  We live in a society filled with self-absorbed people.  Total self-absorption is a personality disorder, Narcissism, diagnosed in the DSM-IV-TR – the authoritative source for mental and personality disorders.  Most of the people we deal with would not qualify for this level diagnosis and treatment; however, some of the traits of this disorder are obvious in society, and…

Killing it on Keen

Class #3…

Blogger’s note – It was pointed out to me that some Tarot Guild members may have thought that I was commenting on the Guild or the tarot community as a whole when I mentioned weight.  If there was such an interpretation, please forgive; it was not intended to be such.  The idea of all the U-Predict shows is to look at the world in general.  Because we are part of it, our customers are part of it; many of our questions are about Western Civilization or “Pop…

So, long time no post lol...but here I am again and today I'm blogging about confidence in our skills as Tarot readers. Where does it come from, how do we get it, and how is it even verified? I can't answer all of those questions but I will tell you how I found mine.

After many years away from the Tarot, I jumped in both feet first, but I had a nagging feeling like my readings weren't good enough, I didn't know enough. I got my first Tarot deck at 15 and have maintained a…

Interpreting Tarot…

You may be proud of your nurturing abilities; in fact, people may flock to you because of them.  Just remember that true friendship should be a two way street.  If you are always taking care of someone, or constantly sitting through a performance of their one-person dramas, then it's not a friendship.  If you want your life to be more carefree, help the helpless find a wider circle of friends to become dependent on...…

Sometimes hope is the only thing we have.  It is very easy to be discouraged if you focus on what is being said in the media.  Let's face it, bad news sells.  Turn everything off, shut down your computer.  Sit quietly and think about the good things in your life.  Think about how those good things will continue.  It is synchronicity that it has all come together and how it will stay together.  There, don't you feel better!…
