    My Background, My Bias

    A little bit rambly today. I want to talk about what’s been percolating in my mind the last couple weeks, what I have been kind of working on, and then I want to talk about how I grew up and what my spiritual/witchy background is because I think it’s really important to help understand what my viewpoints and biases are and why I have them and how I developed them. I try to be aware of my own biases and mention them as they come out, but the nature of biases is that they’re not usually conscious, so….. I tried to keep it short, but I’m a rambly, tangenting person…

    Quickie Meditation Tip!

    There’s a false idea that meditation is about EMPTYING your mind, and it’s not – it’s about focusing your  mind. Focus on something – whatever, I don’t care. If it’s your favorite song, that counts. If it’s your favorite physical activity, that counts. If it’s your favorite movie, totally counts! Your favorite daydream or fantasy, yup, yup! It’s in! Even if you are just actively observing all the little sounds, feelings, smells, and stimulus going on around you, that counts. It doesn’t matter what position you’re in, or even that you’re in a position.  You can meditation and walk. You can meditation and dance. You can meditate while singing. The…

    Different Grounding Exercise

    So, we’re used to the usual grounding exercises – imagine roots growing into the ground and your branches rising to the sky. Or maybe a beam of light that comes into the top of your head (crown chakra) and out your tailbone (root chakra) or feet. Or maybe you prefer earthing – just walking around barefoot, sitting with a tree or playing with stones, rocks, or working in your garden. These are all awesome and they can be SO helpful! But something fun I’ve done since I was a wee one that can be expanded a bit (I just left the deserts of Arizona, and after awhile, that tree imagery…

    Livestream: The Enchanted Map Oracle + Readings

    I purchased The Enchanted Map Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid a few weeks ago, but I haven’t had much of a chance to play with it! I went to FB Livestream to talk about the deck, show off some of the images, talk about why I bought it, and then to do some free readings! Check it out!

    Patreon Video: What IS Claircognizance?

    Ever wonder what “Claircognizance” is? There are 7 difference “clairs” in the study of psychic phenomenon that describe the way information can be perceived and received, and one of these is Claircognizance – “clear knowing.” But what IS that, what does it mean, and what does it feel like to experience it? In this video I discuss what MY experience of Claircognizance looks like. How does this compare to yours? *My Patreon patrons got to see this video a week ago and have it all to themselves! If you want to see videos early, get in on the discussions, and receive surprise goodies, head on over!*

    Video: Facebook Livestream – End of the Year Readings + “Pay What You Can Readings”

    Yay! Another livestream! This is a “Pay What You Can” livestream I did on Facebook to promote my “End of the Year” readings now available in my store. This is a very special reading to me because it uses a spread that my mother created. At least, I assume that she created it because I can’t find it anywhere – not in any of her books or anywhere online and no one I’ve talked to or asked has seen it anywhere. I’ve modified it a little to add my own twist and expand it cover the whole year. In this livestream, I do some more “Pay What You Can” readings…

    Video – Should You Wait for Your Lover?

    So, a lot of the readings I do are around whether or not one lover should wait for the other. And, man, I HATE waiting. I won the “patience” award in the fourth grade, which boggles my mind because I am not a patient person. I REALLY hate waiting on stuff. A client asked me if I was “just” saying that their person would come back to them, so I wanted to talk a little bit more about waiting, how I felt about it, my perspectie, and how much I hated “yes” answers to this question. So here it is!

    New Video! Facebook Livestream from Small Business Saturday – Pay What You Want Reading

    Hi guys! So, I’ve been pretty slow about updating things. It’s been crazy since moving to Fresno! We’re STILL looking for an apartment, but we’ve finally found some kind of rhythm, so that’s good! On Small Business Saturday (the first Saturday after Thanksgiving) I did a “Pay What You Want Readings” livestream on Facebook to promote my new store on the website (that’s HERE) with tarot readings and tarot lessons available in it! The fun thing, though, is I think this is a great demonstration of my reading style. Also, I do a lot of babbling, too, because it’s me, and that’s what I do. Check it out and if…

    The Lightworkers’s Personal Black Cloud

    I posted something about this about a week ago in my private Facebook group, but I’m thinking that the topic is bigger than that. Something I’ve been seeing a lot of in my spirituality group and spiritual business groups is something very much like a persecution complex. While a certain amount of drama and ego is normal in the spiritual community (since it’s made up of humans being), this is reaching a level normally more associated with narcissists, master manipulators, and aggressive psychic leeches. That IS uncommon. While the spiritual community IS made of humans being, these humans usually consider themselves compassionate, open-hearted, and empathic. As such, they aren’t USUALLY…
