Tarot podcast | 11 February 2013

Here is the tarot podcast created from my Tarot Radio Show on Radio Bute. I’d love to know what you think of it! Is the content ok? My accent too strong? Any habits I must rid myself of – other than singing along loudly and badly. https://soundcloud.com/alison-cross/radio-bute-podcast-11-feb

Oh how I love my new dungarees from @lucyandyak! V Oh how I love my new dungarees from @lucyandyak! Very comfortable and so many pocketsies!!!! 

Dungarees are new to me - if you fancy a pair, here's what I've learned:

1 Don't wait too long before deciding to go to the loo.  There's a lot of undoing to be done.

2  Careful of your phone rattling out of your bib pocket in loo visits too! 

3  For. God's. Sake. Be. Mindful. Of. Where. Your. Shoulder. Straps. Are. During. Your. Loo. Visit.

So comfy! no untucking issues! Trousers can be studded up to give a funkier leg. 

Willie says that I look like I should be mixing paint in B&Q.  What does HE know of crone comforts?!

Learn to dance with the Swords - you can be honest AND skilful.

#thewildwoodtarot wisdom The Shaman of the Gunder #thewildwoodtarot wisdom

The Shaman of the Gunderstrup Cauldron sits before nine stones. The snake in his left hand stands for wisdom, the torque in his right for leadership.

This card shows us respect for the knowledge of the ancients, the importance of finding a poing of contact with that source for ourselves. And, once we find that point, we keep those skills alive and pass on our knowledge to those who come after us.

Hey, do you read playing cards in the #russiancart Hey, do you read playing cards in the #russiancartomancy style? I'm just learning with @theknaveofswords over at the #worlddivinationassociation!

So, Russian style - the Queen of Spades - possibly a dark-haired woman, or a rival of some sort - is on a dangerous road towards the marriage bed.

Well, given that we are all in lockdown, I'd like to see her try lol!

Reading as a Marseille.  All black suits, all spades - a lot of stabbing and jabbing. ⚔ Ah heck.

The Queen of Swords is in retreat and utter darkness falls. *decides to check the fuse box later*

Anybody got any more uplifting insights about these 3 cards?! Please comment if you interpret differently! 😉

Whaddya think? Is our traditional image of a witch based on a bigoted trope of the Welsh?!

Stop scrolling - just for a second, because this 3 Stop scrolling - just for a second, because this 3-card reading is just for YOU.

Temperance, The Tower, The Star

Things have been held in stasis - back and forth, back and forth, with no growth, no change. 

However change is coming and whoooooey, IS IT COMING like a ton of bricks.

Something disruptive is coming - a bolt from the blue - to turn you upside down and make you see things differently.

No longer will your emotions cycle back and forth, now it will be time for those emotions to be discharged and poured out.

Would love to hear your comments about this! Get in touch!

All Majors - this could be VERY SIGNIFICANT!

'No one saves us but ourselves' Is that just vapi 'No one saves us but ourselves' 
Is that just vapid bollocks or is it useful? 

While I do not believe that we are responsible for everything that happens to us, we ARE responsible for what we do with that experience. 
It's how you frame events in your life that counts, not the events themselves - no matter how terrible those events have been.

This is how we save ourselves.  It's not about lying to yourself about what has happened, but finding a way to carry the experience in a way that you can make peace with what has happened and keep on walking.

I though I'd share the quote.  We're in difficult times at the moment and am hoping this reaches you like a big squashy hug from me.

Hey friend! Stop scrolling cos these cards are for Hey friend! Stop scrolling cos these cards are for YOU!

XV THE DEVIL, X THE WHEEL, VIIII THE HERMIT.

Right now you might feel hopeless, entrapped. Chained to something or someone who keeps you from being free.

Change is coming!

Time will throw light on what has gone before.

BUT don't be complacent. The numbers wind back - lessons may be repeated. And the Wheel spins in place.

Real change is HARD, but possible. Educate yourself in The Hermit's lamplight and burst through your self-limiting beliefs.
