My love of Sgt Catherine Cawood remains undiminished! Bought a bracelet to ask myself: what would sgt Cawood do? In any tricky situation ❤

working on my desktop, so no way to share this other than to screenshot it and tag @rebeldeck because this is such a MASSIVE FREAKIN' PROBLEM.

I get at LEAST 3 emails a week saying the equivalent of 'bought the Wildwood Tarot deck but the download url isn'T working, please send pdf of lwb'

Mostly there is no 'please' 🤣

Just stop it. Do your due diligence as a buyer. Buy legit decks. If you don't, the whole tarot deck creation matrix will splinter into a billion bits.

Today's tarot court card: The Queen of Pentacles.

Today's tarot court card: The Queen of Pentacles. Ah this is a lovely image to have at Imbolc, the first of the year's fire festivals (I think that ALL the festivals were fire festivals. Can you imagine ancient Celts passing up the chance to have a fire?!) The Queen plays on her bodhran with a long bone. Behind her a hare pauses in its winter white. At her feet snowdrops blossom. The Taurus bull decorates her throne.

Today it's all about music and song - make time for music so that it can work its weird, restorative magic on you. Don't believe me? A 2013 study in the Journal of Positive Psychology found that people who listened to upbeat music could improve their moods and boost their happiness in just two weeks (thank you Google!)

Today's tarot court card: The King of Wands from t

Today's tarot court card: The King of Wands from the Druidcraft Tarot. What can I say about this King, purely from the image? His ears are decorated - we can see them and his head has only a circlet, so he's open hearing and thinking about other people's thoughts and opinions.
His heart area is covered and highly decorated with his collar (salamander biting its tail), so he's not someone who dwells much on keeping good relationships - action is where it's at!
What he holds in his hand is his Wand. His shield is by his side, he has no other obvious weapons. We cannot see the tip of his Wand - he's not much interested in fighting or even defending himself. Although that left hand is a bit of a fist - could be roused to a punch maybe? 😃
As far as his passions go, well, look at that belt tail hanging down his leg and - if that is't enough, look at the marks the edge of the throne makes on his robe between his legs - this guy is PASSION in action. He's got the Aries ram's head decorating his throne - head-strong, fiery and determined.
Although he looks out at us from the card - engaged, passionate and open - he is still inclined towards the past (that right foot pointing left). I feel that he is saying 'Tell me what you want to do! Let's get it done together!'
So that's his message today - what do you really want to do? What is the passion that sets you ALIGHT? Today's the day for embarking on whatever makes you feel alive!
And yeah, damn the consequences - this guy is not looking ahead 😃 You've been warned 😃

Today's tarot card: (forgot to do one yesterday -

Today's tarot card: (forgot to do one yesterday - sorry lol!) Another Princess today, the Princess of Swords. Surrounded by signs of Spring (instagram won't let me resize the card - apologies for cutting the top off her head!), she is a lovely card to draw as we celebrate Imbolc tomorrow.

Barefoot, our young Princess wraps a ribbon around the blade of her sword. The wind whips at the ragged edges of her clothing.

As a 'Page' equivalent, she is about beginnings - small things, minor things, open-hearted approach to life.

As a Sword, her family traits are about head-centred traits - thinking, logic, study, lists, communication, truth etc.

Smooshing these two sets of keywords together we get small thinking, minor communication, beginning study ...

And tomorrow I start wrangling a year-long tarot study course into the Wildwood Tarot (those courts to come next lol!) and I will be surrounded by Princesses of Swords (and a good few Knights, Queens and Kings as well, I hope!)

The Princess says:

Got a problem? Create a list?
Got a big mental task you can't get your head around - break it into small pieces.
Begin a course of study.

This is me. The fake account sliding into your DMs has blocked me. Instagram says that the person pretending to be me is doing nothing wrong. I don't know how that can be the case. May these scammers reap the whirlwind. #tarot #tarotreadersofinstagram

today's tarot court card: The King of Pentacles -

today's tarot court card: The King of Pentacles - Fire of Earth - what a perfect guy for me to remind you to DO YOUR TAX RETURN TODAY as they have to be in by the end of the month.

This character is very confident and competent. He's asking you to take a look at your finances today - every penny saved is a penny you don't have to earn! What subscriptions can you renegotiate/cancel? But it's not just about cancelling money obligations - it's about adding savvy ones too.

Went to see #heilung in Glasgow on Sunday night. First gig I've ever gone to on my own in my life.

A mixture of shamanic, ancient and ecstatic sounds and ritual. I absolutely loved it.

Seeing Maria's antlers appear through the smokey stage sent shivers down my spine. The Deer Mother.
The whole experience was superb!

Over on Facebook, in the #wildwoodtarot study group, I will be starting the yearlong journey from A Year In The Wildwood.

You don't need to buy my book because the prompts will be made in the group (but obviously, if you DO buy the book, it helps keep the wolf from my door and I get some £ reward for a truckload of effort lol!)

First post goes up on 31 January for Imbolc. Head on over there and join (answer all the membership questions please!) to get ahead of the curve!

Today's tarot court card: The Queen of Cups from t

Today's tarot court card: The Queen of Cups from the Druidcraft Tarot. As Water of Water, she is fully engaged with her relationships - they are her Kingdom. She is not the sort of person to chat with one eye on the door to see who else will arrive. She'll make you feel like you are the only person in the room.

Give each person you interact with your full attention today.

Today's tarot court card: The Queen of Wands from

Today's tarot court card: The Queen of Wands from The Druidcraft Tarot. Sure of herself, passionate and assertive, the Queen of Wands urges us to remember and be kind when we're pressing forwards. Live with passion, light a couple of fires and don't be afraid to use that Wand!

Today's tarot court card: Prince of Cups (Air of W

Today's tarot court card: Prince of Cups (Air of Water). This character seeks emotional connection - romantic, idealistic, he is our Grail Knight. The Grail is already in your hands, do you recognise it? Today the Prince of Cups suggests that instead of LOOKING for love, you FIND it in all the relationships that connect you to others - your family, your partner, your siblings, your kids, your colleagues, your friends, your employees, your pets, the girl that walks past you in the street with her head down.

I have not been on Instagram for the longest time

I have not been on Instagram for the longest time because I was starting to feel discouraged and overwhelmed. Yesterday I was reminded of what a marvellous community it can be with so many lovely people not only taking time to let me know my account had been spoofed, but also to help report it. Have a photo of Loki as a thank you 😁
