Happy Earth Day!  As I write this, it is a beautiful and sunny spring day.  We’ve entered the fixed-earth sign of Taurus, and to honor the day and the season, I’d like to explore how the Tarot’s Ace of Pentacles can support us in slowing down, connecting to our planet, and our corporeal selves. Earth Day was first celebrated in 1970 as a call for students to fight for environmental causes and oppose environmental degradation with the same energy that they displayed in opposing the Vietnam War. The idea of protecting our planet was a radical notion. As you know, the natura ..read more

To help you get into a Ten of Cups vibe as you enjoy this post, check out the very sunny and rainbow colored playlist here. When I first started learning the Tarot, I understood the Ten of Cups as the 'happily ever after' card. And what's not to like about happily ever after? Nothing, except that it's a fairy tale. If we turn to the Tarot as a tool for predictions, it's easy to interpret the Ten of Cups as a sign that everything will work out great. The problem with that kind of interpretation is that it keeps the pot of gold happiness in an ever-elusive mirage someday in the future. The trut ..read more

On Sunday, March 10th we'll welcome a New Moon in Pisces. If you want to super-charge your manifestation work, you can align your intentions with the phases of the Moon. You can read my full Moon Manifestation guide here. In brief, we begin our new manifestations at the New Moon, then grow our plans at the Crescent Moon phase. At the First Quarter (half) we get into action, and at the Waxing Gibbous we take stock of all we've done. At the Full Moon we release whatever has still to be done to Spirit and then release with gratitude and surrender until the next New Moon. As soon as I learned abo ..read more

In 2023 we completed a major cycle. In 2024 we awake on the another level.  Welcome to 2024!  I hope that you had a fun time ringing in this new year, I know that I did! As I sit down to write about our card of the year, Strength, I’m already enjoying its energetic shift.  We arrive at Strength as our card for 2024 because 2 + 0 + 2 + 4= 8, which is the number of the Strength card in Tarot’s Major Arcana.  Examining the energy of our card of the year is not an exercise in predictions. It’s more of an invitation to step into an exploration of our personal journey ..read more

This Thursday December 21st is the Winter Solstice, marking the longest night of the year. It's the first official day of winter and begins the season of Yule, which celebrates the rebirth of the Sun On the Solstice the Sun appears to stand still, or in Latin solstitium. In ancient times we would honor this time of darkness with rest. It’s ironic that today this is the busiest time of year for many. The natural world is embracing stillness at this time, and to help us do the same, I've got some Yule ideas for your winter reset. And remember, there are 12 days of Yule, so there is no rush to e ..read more

Finishing 2023 with Strength and Vision On Tuesday the 12th we’ll begin the final lunar cycle of 2023 with a New Moon in Sagittarius. To help us finish strong, I’m calling on the Nine of Wands for insight and perseverance. The New Moon is normally a time for setting new intentions, but since this year is nearing its end, I‘m offering a ritual to help get us across the finish line. The Nine of Wands is a card we can anchor to when we’ve got more commitments than time, but it all needs to get done. By combining Sagittarius’ enthusiasm for exploration with the Nine of Wands’ strength and fo ..read more

How Your Halloween Costume Can Help You Re-Imagine Yourself I’m going to take a little break from the cards today to offer my thoughts on how Halloween can be a catalyst for self-exploration. For me, Halloween costumes have always been a source of joy. As a kiddo, I broke my arm on the afternoon of October 31st. I remember going straight from the ER to put on my costume (conveniently a mummy!) and then trick-or-treating. At age 12, I promised myself I would never miss a year of dressing up, and I never have! For others, I know that choosing a Halloween costume can be a source of stress and an ..read more

While it may be ‘spooky season’, this week is a good time to remember that Divine is all treats and no tricks, so don’t let anyone tell you differently! There are a few events coming up that have been traditionally associated with superstitions but are in fact opportunities for transformation. This Saturday we begin the final eclipse season of 2023 with a ‘Ring of Fire’ Annular Eclipse, and this Friday is Friday the 13th. It’s true the movie Friday the 13th is scary, and seeing an eclipse can be a wild experience, but there’s nothing to fear or be superstitious about with either. In fact, bot ..read more

I had the pleasure of being interviewed by the website Mystic Mag this week and discussed with them why I listen to the voice of Spirit and why I stay away from predictions and fortune-telling. You can read that article, From Curiosity to Calling, and let me know what you think ..read more

On Friday, May 5th at 8:15 am PT we closed the Spring 2023 eclipse season with a lunar eclipse in Scorpio. Eclipse seasons offer a chance to pause our manifestation work and witness what’s being released, what’s being born, and what has changed. When we pause our manifestation work, what remains? In this spring season of rebirth, what creative expression wants to come forward? As we move forward from eclipse season, I want to use the May Full Moon as an invitation to explore how far the phrase “you do you” might take us on a journey of self-expression… Exploring the practice of self-expressio ..read more
