Ace of Wands, Two of Pentacles, The Emperor ~ Shadowscapes Tarot by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law

I got up much earlier than normal this morning thanks to an alarm snafu on my part, so I have managed to get a few things done early today and that means time for a reading this morning instead of later today.

I’ve taken to doing a different type of shuffling of my deck since I’ve been “in love” with the wands suit now for a bit so cut it a couple times in different variations and then smooth shuffling. It seems that no… Continue reading →

Aces up ~ An interesting reading

Published January 8, 2013 | By Lilyth

This morning I shuffled absentmindedly for much longer than I normally do and not really thinking about anything in particular just shuffling and letting my mind wander over what I needed to get done today and what I wish to accomplish in the short term. I finally settled down and pulled a card.

Ace of Pent, Ace of Cup and Queen of Swords…interesting

The card was the Ace of Pentacles, again today. Interesting. Since I pulled this card a second day in a row I wanted some clarification so two more cards pulled. Ace… Continue reading →

Ace of Pentacles ~ A planted seed

Shadowscapes Tarot by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law

It’s been a couple of days since I have had time to really sit down and do my daily reading and while I am working today I decided to take a quick break to draw and write out what I find.

There is something beautiful and totally vibrant about this card. It’s rich in greens and yellow and so natural to look at. Featured is the single Pentacle “coin” which has a face centered on it. At first glance it appears to be a frowning man’s face; however, in it… Continue reading →

Daily Draw Returns

Published December 21, 2012 | By Lilyth

It has been quite sometime since I have been able to have any sense of "normalcy" in my days. It's been nearly four months since I've made the time for doing a daily tarot reading for myself. Too long to be absent from my reading practice. ;) Continue reading →

This surreal moment

Published July 31, 2012 | By Lilyth

In this moment my life seems surreal. For many years I have dreamed, hoped and worked to live a good life, be a good person and to share the blessings that are in my life with those around me. I have lost my way many times to find it again and again.

Several things keep running through my head almost on a loop. A couple songs, “Yes”, “Walkin’ on Sunshine” “Goin’ back to Cali” and a quote which is a modified Labyrinth quote “Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered I have fought my way here to my… Continue reading →

A harvesting time

Published July 19, 2012 | By Lilyth

What an amazing reading today that signifies everything that we have been going through as this phase truly comes to a close. In two weeks time I will be making my way westward. There is much mundane work to be done between now and then for packing, loading and various visits with friends and family as we prepare to leave the East Coast. This is all a part of the harvest. We are ready to gather up that which we have created this year as Lughnasadh approaches quickly and in this time of the first Harvest we will be granted our desires and a prosperous new journey to undertake. I look forward to new challenges and a new direction for life. I foresee a healthier and happier time ahead filled with new spiritual and mundane challenges which I eagerly plan to gobble up.

Mastery of order over chaos

This card is a great reminder that with some effort, I hold within me the keys to creating and maintaining order as we make this move. Balancing the chaos with order is not an easy task but one that I am up for and will achieve! Continue reading →

Receiving the gifts

Published July 17, 2012 | By Lilyth

I find this card to be quite beautiful. I’ve yet to find one I don’t though!

Against a crescent moonlit landscape a cloaked figure stands with two swords drawn. They are in a protective stance, barring and blocking his heart from harm and pain. Surrounding him are sprites and two swans. The swans offer him gifts.

Behind him, gifts of beauty and before him gifts from the heart or those given in love. The sprites watch as the events around them unfold.

From the safe place within I must decide to receive these gifts around… Continue reading →

A conspiracy theory to live by

Published July 17, 2012 | By Lilyth

A friend of mine posted a picture on facebook with a Ralph Waldo Emerson quote on it. The quote is simple and profound at the same time.

Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen

The universe and I have long been friends in conspiracy. The road is not always easy but the decision firmly made will manifest. The universe WANTS you to be happy and enjoy your life. I am a firm believer in this.

One of my biggest desires was turned into a decision. For too long we have… Continue reading →
