Psychic and Metaphysical Advice for Everyday Life!

Welcome to my blog! Where sometimes the unexplainable, may become explained!

June 28th - July 4th Tarotscopes


You know, I should really aim to probably get these posted on Sunday night! LOL! Yesterday started off fabulous and I had tons of motivation! And I have to say I was just as equally blessed with a number of clients I hadn't expected, so as the day progressed.. well, they're a tad bit late! And let me not mention, though I am, that I do NOT like Blogger's new layouts and formatting.. I've lost 3 posts now to where my text gets totally wiped out at times. Definitely has me reminded again to save my work offline as I progress through it!!! But I'm thinking that this next coming week's, and those thereafter, will *probably* start getting posted on Sundays so I don't look like I'm a total scattered procrastinator!! I'm really not, I just tend to get caught up in things that weren't on my "to do" list!   Anyways, I'm going back to The Gilded Tarot, the imagery is just so vibrant!! Please feel free to send me any messages at my email or  facebook! Here's this week's Tarotscopes!!


The Devil ReversedAries (Mar 21 - April 19)- Your eyes might not be open to the situations around you, or maybe at this point you'd rather just settle and see if that works out? You might be needing to take another look at things and make sure you're really being honest with yourself. This week is bound to bring you some temptations of an easier way out, but if it's compromising your ability to make things right, you may be easily swayed to throw caution to the wind! Rather than focusing on something you think is a helpless situation, be thankful for that which is already in your life!







The FoolTaurus (April 20 - May 20) - This week has a sense of renewed inspiration!! You're ready to start moving forward with some ideas you've set aside for a while. And at this point it really is a time to leap and then look! Too often, you have found yourself trying to control the situations trying to come up with a solution to please everyone but yourself. Now you are focused on a path of really achieving what you've wanted all along; stability! It might seem as though you're in uncharted territory, but once you get going.. you'll see you were on the right path all along!







The HierophantGemini (May 21 - June 20)- You could be finding yourself giving out more advice than you're usually use to! Take it as a compliment! Things have been working out pretty good for you lately and everyone else wants some of that good luck to rub off! Just make sure you're not coming off as "all knowing" and you won't rub anyone the wrong way. This week is going to continue to propel you into seeing that the way you were doing things wasn't working and now that you've found your groove, true happiness really can be achieved if you just but some work into it! You should be proud of yourself!






King of CupsCancer (June 21 - July 22)- Last week us Cancer's had the King of Cups reversed, and this week it's upright! This week will definitely start showing signs of progress with what you've been working with. It might start off a little slow, but it'll be business as usual this week as you get back in stride with things mid-week. If you've been trying to get your emotions in check with some of the stress you've been dealing with, this weekend's family festivities will be right up your alley! You'll start finding that balance between work and family soon. You're working towards creating some great things for everyone!






Knight of WandsLeo (July 23 - Aug 22)- Something that has been bothering you for a while may soon be at it's end! But, you may need to step back a little and put your faith a little to the test. Just know that you are very close to reaching your goal and all is going to be working out in your favor, it usually does anyways! This week could have you feeling excited one minute and royally pissed off the next. The Knight of Wands is a fiery card just as your Leo sign; think of those teenage years when emotions ran hot and cold.. maybe listen to some Katy Perry! ;)







10 of Pentacles ReversedVirgo (Aug 23 - Sept 22)- Once again you're frustrated at your attempts to get ahead! Things were moving along OK, and then this week just seems to give you one headache after another. Relationships will come under some strain as you're looked to for the answers.. but who's on your side for support? You may need to close yourself off to some drama to get focused on your own situations. Stability may be tested once again with your finances as you figure out what are necessities and what you can do without. You could really use someone to talk to and just listen for a change!






4 of PentaclesLibra (Sept 23 - Oct 22)- This week will definitely NOT be a time you want to put up any sort of "false front". Being honest with yourself and others is going to be really important if you're going to keep up with the progress you've been making. Just because things are going well doesn't mean you can't take any risks, you'll just need to make sure it worth the "investment" you'll be putting into it. You can't be fearful of where things are taking you now! You've been doing great, now it's just time to share your good times with others! Just make sure those around you are there for good reasons!






9 of CupsScorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21)- Hopefully after last week, this week brings you a lot more good times! The 9 of Cups vibes good with your watery self and emotions have finally played themselves out. This week will bring you more creativity in your friendships and relationships. Just because some of your circle of friends might not get along, doesn't mean you have to choose one over the other. You've got enough of yourself to go around and you don't mind the attention either! You'll be satisfied knowing the decisions you've made were for the right reasons. It's time for some comfort and fun for a job well done!






Knight of Cups ReversedSagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 21)- Don't be surprised if you find yourself asking what it is you really do want! If you haven't been following your instincts, you might want to start before things fall anymore off the wagon! Usually your intelligence can keep you moving along, but once your emotions have hold off you, things become a mess. If you're waiting for someone to come to your rescue, it could be time to get those emotions in check and see what the real cause of your condition is. Stop and think if you're overlooking any possibilities you haven't even thought to pursue previously. You're missing the bigger picture somewhere.






9 of PentaclesCapricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 19)- You could find yourself with a tempting work offer this week! If you feel this is the right move, GO FOR IT! Right now you've really come into some good social connections and you'll be able to advance yourself financially if you take a little bit of a risk for a change. Isn't this what you've been asking for anyways lately? Be thankful for the opportunities that have been coming out of nowhere and you'll soon achieve the finances and romantic connections you've been desiring! You've been working hard for this, be gracious enough to accept it! There's no reason to feel you don't deserve it.






Wheel of FortuneAquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18)- This week you might feel as though you've got good karma raining all down on you! And why not? After last week's Death card, the Wheel of Fortune is blessing you with showing you how destiny can really show up in your life. You will find yourself with a renewed sense of faith as the week progresses on. Circumstances might not always be what you'd like, but you're seeing that sometimes the more you give into things, the more they seem to work out more in your favor! If you've been needing a fresh start, it could be just around the corner!







8 of CupsPisces (Feb 19 - Mar 20)- Things haven't been going quite how you thought they would lately. But this week at least will show you that the new life that's been starting will bring you a lot more healthier and happier memories than what you've been left with. If you've been hurt by someone, this may be the time to let them know and end that feeling of suffering on your side. You can be worried about how they will be feeling either! You have your own self to look after! Sometimes it can take something like this in order to get out of the cycles we make. Know that you're doing this for a better future!






Many Blessings!! Have a FABULOUS week!!

Minding Your Words


"He has a right to criticize, who has a heart to help" ~Abraham Lincoln

"If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them." ~Mohandas K. Gandhi

"He only profits from praise who values criticism." ~Heinrich Heine

Words have the power to inspire and destroy. When I was young, I quite often heard from my Grandmother; "mind your words". It's true though, sometimes I have a problem with going on and on about something. I also have a fabulous knack of just saying what's on my mind at times without really thinking about the repercussion of it. This can be a bonus or a bane!!! LOL! Positive words can empower people towards great accomplishments. And negative words can be highly destructive! But how do you know when you're being critical and when you're actually producing constructive criticism?

First, it's easy for us to intake negativity more easily than it is positivity. Why? Because that's what we're dealing with 24/7!! TV and online news is primarily focused on all that is "WRONG" in the world.. we barely get a glimpse of the few miracles and heroes before there is another story of something devastating! If you think life is horrible.. think back to a moment ago.. were you just stressing over a bill that is due? What do you think the first thing out of your mouth is going to be when you get to the mailbox and see it?! If you're Gordon Ramsey, it'd probably be something like MUTHA F#[K!N BILL!! People who deal with depression, may also find they're overly critical of themselves saying things like "I'll NEVER accomplish that" or "Sometimes I'm just stupid". Here is a simple test you can do for yourself to see if your words are falling on the NEGATIVE or POSITIVE spectrum.

Take a piece of paper and mark down these words, phrases, and/or any similar that you find yourself using. Throughout the day, place a mark when you find yourself saying one of these words.

Negative
· Useless
· Empty
· Impossible
· Ugly
· Weak
· Lonely
· Hopeless
· Loser
· Failure
· Bad person
· Stupid
· NEVER
· Lost

Positive
· Beautiful
· Hope
· THANK YOU!! (It really is under used!)
· Please (same as above!)
· Fabulous
· Awesome
· Smart thinking
· Great
· Terrific
· LOVE
· Wonderful
· You're the best!
· FUN (I think people are forgetting that word a lot!)

You might also want to make a note if you were feeling a certain way when these words came popping out of your mouth. Remember, negative words are going to be associated with feelings of despair, disappointment, anxiety, anger, guilt, and frustration. Whereas feelings of hope, happiness, accomplishment, pride, passion and love are from encouraging, positive words!

The more practice with minding your words, the easier it becomes to Mind Your Thoughts! By speaking negative words, the more you'll feel unwanted emotions. Until you remove the negative chatter from your mind, you won’t be able to lead the happy life you envision yourself in. If you're feeling depressed, lonely, or generally down on yourself. Check out what you're actually expressing aloud. You may just surprise yourself! Start using words that spread happiness and watch how the energy around you and within you starts to change!

Many Blessings!

Minding Your Thoughts - Change Your Life


“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.” ~Buddha

“The ancestor of every action is a thought.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.” ~Mahatma Gandhi

So we're venturing into some Law of Attraction here! You can't get upset by the thoughts you find yourself having.. there's about a half dozen situations you're probably trying to sort out! That's enough to have anyone feeling overwhelmed! By realizing that you already have the answers to what's going on might just have you saying.. ummm, no, no I don't. And YES, YES YOU DO!! Because what's happening right now is directly related to a thought, and then an action, and then a reaction!

Here's an easy way to think about it. Life is going generally well, you get yourself a credit card with the thought of "I will only use it to build my credit". So you use it and pay on it regularly and have almost paid it off when a temptation comes about.. so you hmmm and haaa about it trying to rationalize the purchase. On one hand you could say to yourself "oh it's a GREAT buy and it's not that much to where I'd have a problem buying it!" OR "I know if I buy this and allow myself the pleasure of owning it I'll regret it because SOMETHING will end up being an EXTRA expense"... and guess what happens. More often than not, it's the second thought that comes up! And guess what happens! And on and on.. because once the process hits, it's tough to stop the mental pattern of "I'M NEVER GETTING OUT OF HERE!".

It IS easy to turn it around. There is no waiting period. And it works INSTANTLY! So, once that credit card bill comes in the mail.. instead of saying "great another $30 that I could've used for gas" needs to become "oh I knew this bill was due so it's a good thing I have that covered!". It's not like the bill snuck up on you from out of nowhere! And when there is something that does seem to sneek up.. well, you might have to think about that for a minute.. was the break light indicator on for a reason? Hmmm... There may be "coincidences", but honestly, nothing is truly ever what it seems at times! The synchronicity of life carries on through everything! Thought, word, action, and reaction! :)

Many Blessings!!!

June 26th 2010 Full Moon Eclipse - Make it Count!


We're blessed with a Partial Lunar Eclipse on June 26th, 2010 at around 7:38am EST. This eclipse will be at 4-4½ degrees in Capricorn/Cancer with the moon conjunct Pluto. We can expect structural changes and truths to be revealed. This may also be due to the strength of the cardinal grand cross that is not fully finished yet. With this eclipse, those with prevalent cardinal influences in their chart, the signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn; in the early signs will experience these energies more strongly.

Women may be more strongly effected as well as we feel the moon's emotional pull to the sun's active response energy. Feelings may be difficult to understand properly. Though a feeling of achieving emotional stability will be heavily pursued as well!

The Full Moon is always a time of personal fulfillment and soon brings us through the cycle of exploring new thoughtfulness. With a Capricorn moon, we dig our heels into our goals to make the reality we want to achieve possible!!

During this time you may want to work on some personal goals! I am also available for performing spellwork at this time. If you would like a spell performed, you can contact me at my email or at facebook. Alternately, you may want to have an astrological chart done at this time too to see what sort of influences may be coming up for you in the next couple of months! Take a look at my services page!

At this time of the eclipse you may want to do a simple candle spell. Here is what you will need.

  • 1 white candle, 1 black candle
  • Piece of paper
  • Green marker for financial matters
  • Pink marker for love matters
  • Blue marker for health/healing matters
  • Black marker for emotional matters
  • Orange marker for creativity/mind matters
  • Purple marker for spirituality/psychic matters
  • 1 sage stick (optional)

Light your black candle, and gaze at it for a moment or two. Then close your eyes and take a few deep breaths and think about all the things that are dragging you down, making you generally unhappy.. you know all the BLAH stuff! Take all of it and just put it in a big, ugly, black trash bag. Make sure it's ALL in there.. you don't want to leave anything behind!! Tie it up good and tight! You might even notice that it's trying to open back up, but don't let it. You don't need to let any of that stuff interfere anymore. Once you're sure you've put all your garbage in it's place. Take in one HUGE deep breath, hold it for 5 counts and then let it all out at once in a BIG "HAAAAAAA" sound. Now snuff out the candle and sit in the quiet stillness for a moment.

Light your white candle, and gaze at it for a moment or two again. If you have a sage stick, light it now and let the smoke swirl around you, cleansing your energy. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths and think about all the things you are achieving in your life! See how easily what you are working towards comes to you without any struggle or strife! It is just so simple how you thought at first where things were troubling are now working out exactly how you had planned! Keep these pleasant thoughts going until you have worked your energy to an ecstatic feeling of happiness. Now you will want to write down your affirmations!

Here is one for love: I am creating the relationship I am meant to have! The more I appreciate the attention I receive from others, the more I will open myself up to the feelings of love!

Here is one for career: I am living the path I have made for myself! I will continue to work towards creating the contacts I want to create the prosperity I desire!

And one for health: I am treating my body as a living being. I will give it the care and nurturing that it needs to further make healthier choices in my life!

For emotional stability: I am allowing my emotions to become balanced. I will give options to myself for feeling situations in another way. I will remain calm in times of stress and be joyous of the times of relaxation!

For creativity: I am bursting with creative expression! I can't contain the emotions of electrifying energy that is flowing from every (... insert word for a writer, paint stroke for painters, seam and hem for seamstress, etc..)! My creations are a direct expression of my love for life!

Take a few moments after you are done writing your affirmations and really AFFIRM them! Say them aloud a few times until the sound of your voice is reverberating within. You will know when you truly are feeling the magick being made! Once you are done, extinguish your white candle. Take the black one and bury it or put it in a trashcan outside. Do NOT leave it in your house! The white one you can light at any time during the next few weeks to further "up" your manifesting.

I wish you a happy Full Moon Eclipse!!!
Many Blessings!!!

June 21st - 27th Tarotscopes


Here is this week's Tarotscopes! Sorry they're a tad bit late.. I was having some formatting problems for some reason!! And as I had promised, we're switching it up a bit and I'll be using the Universal Waite deck! I've used both the Universal Waite and the Rider Waite in the past, I had used the Rider Waite for about 4 years exclusively when I had first started reading Tarot since the images are the ones mostly used in shows and movies.. it just made it easy for people to relate to them! I hope you enjoy my readings and please feel free to send me any messages at my email or facebook!


Knight of CupsAries (Mar 21 - April 19)- You're starting to branch out a little more! Some new opportunities are going to show up this week and old commitments might end up getting closed up by the weekend. New contacts or allowing relationships that are beneficial back into your life favor heavily. You may have been keeping company with those that were holding you back. Anything that get's you a new routine will have you feeling refreshed and invigorated about life! Just be sure you're not taking on more than you can handle and you'll be able to reach your goals. It's time to take some more pride in who you are and the goals that you hold for yourself!






The Chariot ReversedTaurus (April 20 - May 20) - If you're feeling that you're losing the battle, have faith in knowing the fight is for a common goal! You may need to let go your fears and doubts that what you're feeling is "wrong". They are your feelings and reactions to the situation that's been brewing for a while. If you can have some control, you may be able to make it through the week without it being a total disaster! That's not to say you won't be able to escape making any sort of decisions.. just know that you're doing it for the sake of moving forward with life!







3 of CupsGemini (May 21 - June 20)- You've been over the moon lately! This week should bring about a celebration.. possibly a late birthday celebration? Just make sure you don't overdo it! You might feel like things are speeding along without you and you're needing to catch up with everyone else.. just be thankful for where you're at and know you're right where you need to be and WHO you need to be. Stay true to yourself and your causes and you'll have the good fortune you've been looking for! If anything this week will show you that you're just where you wanted to be and you're finding that exuberant balance you thought was missing!






King of Cups ReversedCancer (June 21 - July 22)- A reversed King of Cups for you (and me!) this week can show it might bring about some moodiness. There's a lot of focus around the house and home. A discussion of responsibilities and changes for the future is a possibility over the weekend. Keeping feelings focused and mature will factor in heavily if any real discussion is going to make any change. These worrying thoughts may have been bottled up for a while, but once they're out on the table, there's no going back. Others know you're coming from a place of general caring... you just need to learn how to express yourself before you explode!






3 of Pentacles ReversedLeo (July 23 - Aug 22)- This week either your work seems to get passed over or if you are working with someone on a project, you might be left with only your half completed! It may feel like a struggle just to get to the weekend, so when you do get there.. don't end up making it one you regret! You may just need a little patience right now and try not to push things so much in your favor, they're probably already there in the first place! You'll also need to make sure you're being compensated properly as well and not being taken advantage of. Just be careful your lion's roar doesn't scare anyone off!






JusticeVirgo (Aug 23 - Sept 22)- Your eyes are wide open this week! If anything has been troublesome, that'll be coming to an end and in a fair and balanced way as well. By the weekend you'll be able to feel a sense of relief, but could be forced out of your comfort zone as well in another way. Change needs to come about, but don't expect the world just to change around YOU. You've got to be a part of what's going on and be accountable for your actions. If you've been missing the lessons you've been taught lately, it might be tough to see where you're headed. Keep living in the experiences!






The Lovers ReversedLibra (Sept 23 - Oct 22)- Just because you thought things were on the right path, doesn't mean someone didn't change the sign post! This week might throw you for such a loop, it might be tough to make sense of anything. Honestly right now, you probably won't be able to. You'll need to find a balance with your heart and your head! You can't have one over rule the other if you're going to reach your full potential. The Lover's reversed is definitely showing a choice will need to be made. Just make sure that you have all the information you need before rushing ahead with anything! Making a choice doesn't mean you have to give up!






The High Priestess ReversedScorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21)- The High Priestess holds a wealth of knowledge.. but reversed, something is amiss. Are you holding back from the truth? Or have you lost the trust in someone? This week is going to have you looking inside yourself, searching for your truths. You might find yourself somewhat surprised by the people around you and it might be a time where those that have been negatively impacting you will now be leaving. Say good riddance!!! You don't need that sort of drama anymore! Move forward in knowing you're the one that's in control of your life and you can trust you know exactly what you want!






8 of SwordsSagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 21)- Right now you could perceive things could always be worse.. and that's fine. But not everyone is going to share that optimistic outlook! It's only going to be an obstacle if you make it that way, so be sure you are fighting fair when it comes down to it. If you feel you have the answers, now might be a good time to share them! You can't blame others, or yourself, for the predicament. It's now the time to work together, but you'll also be starting a new path for yourself too that'll have you feeling a lot more comfortable with where things are headed!







Page of CupsCapricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 19)- You'll be thinking about a lot of things this week! Don't get too upset if you find yourself lost in dreams of the past.. just remember them for what they were and take some advice from them! If you've been too closed off from others, now might be the time to make amends. Just make sure you're coming across as genuine. It may seem as though this sort of thing has happened before with you. It might be the time to re-evaluate how you've been emotionally invested in things. A new approach later could be key! Don't worry about finding the solution yet, give yourself a moment to breathe.






DeathAquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18)- Don't freak out with the Death card! This week for you is going to be FANTASTIC! All your resources have been pulling together for you and you can feel a global change on the horizon! As you can see in this card the sun is on the horizon, but is it rising or setting? Everything has been moving along naturally and thought changes have been about, they have been somewhat pleasant! You know that the change is for the better and you have been more at peace than you've felt in a while. The cycle of life is blessing you by purifying and eliminating that which is no longer needed!






2 of PentaclesPisces (Feb 19 - Mar 20)- You might need to be a little more adaptable this week. If you've been discouraged, by the weekend you'll be singing a happier tune! Let others help if they want, you don't need to prove anything by taking on so much. Focus on one task at a time and you'll knock them out before you know it if you can keep your emotional impulses at bay! Your inspiration might be waning a bit, but once you take a break, you'll have your second wind and be ready for more! You've been forging ahead in a lot of ways and are creating the prosperity you've been wanting!








Many Blessings!! Have a FABULOUS week!!
