Weekly Reading

I'm mixing things up a little this time with our weekly three card reading. It's still three cards, but only one of them is a tarot card. 

One of my favorite tarot decks is Rhythm and Soul Tarot, and it goes perfectly with two of my favorite oracle decks created by the same artist - Southern Gothic Oracle, and Haunts Oracle. All three decks, as well as Southern Botanic Oracle, are available from La Panthére Studio.

(The Hermit card from Rhythm and Soul Tarot. Beneath that card are two more cards. On the left, the Clairvoyant card from Haunts Oracle. On the right, the Abandoned Plantation card from Southern Gothic Oracle.)

First, we have our focus for this week - The Hermit. Whatever it is that you have to handle or are hoping to accomplish, you can do this! Don't wait for somebody else to come along and save you. You already have what you need. Not necessarily in tangible material ways, but you have the knowledge and skill, or ability to build skills, to be able to do the work. Or it may be a matter of making a decision you don't want to make, but you already know what the decision is.

The way I use the oracle cards with this is to take one from Haunts Oracle to show a challenge related to the tarot card, and then a card from Southern Gothic Oracle to show something working in favor of a goal, or how to get help in the process of work.

The challenge is that you need to stop searching for general answers and alternatives. You already know what you need to do. Looking for information that builds a plan you can act on is good, but there's no need to keep asking for opinions and hoping some mysterious simple solution will turn up.

The Abandoned Plantation card gives some advice on which direction to take in doing the work. You're going to need to have some hard talks with yourself, and maybe a few other people. You've been doing things in a system that either holds you back, or it makes someone else sacrifice too much so you can succeed. Be honest with yourself about what you need to cut out, where you need to give more, and how it needs to be done to make things fair and sustainable.

If you're getting something helpful from our quick weekly readings, please consider getting a personal reading from me. I have options for several kinds of readings, including tarot, tarot and oracle cards, and dice divination. Your reading will be emailed to you as a detailed pdf report that explains meanings of cards and walks you through each step of how I interpreted your reading.

Forest Tales

Image
I was getting ready to write about what I've been playing with recently when it comes to poetry, when I realized I'll have to do that some other time because I still haven't posted about Forest Tales !  (Cover of Forest Tales  by LK Nesse. A tunnel through a forest formed by trees. The title is in letters that have simple shapes with just a touch of fairy tale flair.) Super short summary: Six short stories that give glimpses of daily life in an enchanted forest. You can get it  here  or through  my ko-fi   in both epub and pdf formats. Summary too short? I'm happy to tell you more! I started writing these stories just for the sake of writing them, sharing them on a Substack I closed earlier this year. There was no planning or schedule for it. I think I only wrote three before I shut things down over there, and it took well over a year for me to do even that. Editing what I already had and adding to it was one of the first things I thought of whe...

3 Card Tarot Reading Example

Sharing my writing is easier than sharing divination readings. I can tell you that my writing is available  on itchio  or through  my ko-fi  and you can go see what looks interesting to you. I can even share little bits and pieces of things now and then.  Divination? Well, I can tell you where to go to  request a reading . I don't share information about readings I do for clients, though, and each reading is unique. I can't share a piece of what you'll be getting the way I can with my writing. I can, however, give you an example so you'll have an idea of what to expect!  There are five options for readings, and I'm doing what I can to keep them as accessible as possible with the prices. Still, it's been a good stretch of years since the last time I was offering readings, social media has gone through a lot of changes, and not as many people know what to expect from me these days. Trust me, I understand how that can make someone question whether or not ...

A different way to use "Art Grimoire"

Image
I really wanted to work on my Art Grimoire map one day. I didn't want to do the normal rolling the d6 to find out which Mystery I would be working on. I just wanted to work on the map I already had going in my book.  So I did! (Fantasy map of an island drawn in a sketchbook. There are strange symbols in various place on the land and water, some forests and sea creatures, and places marked with warnings in red ink.) Maps are an easy thing to stay focused on while still seeing your sorcerer's sanity numbers go up and down. The cards, which raise and decrease sanity, are a big part of the prompts for maps. All I had to do was keep rolling the dice to find out which sections of the map to do and keep drawing cards to find out what I was doing.  To do this with other Mysteries, just make sure you remember to draw a card and see what it does to your sorcerer's sanity before you make another entry. You can go into things knowing you want to do an Herbalism entry, for e...
