Hiya dear you!,

I hope you are doing well and are okay. I understand and feel that life can be very intense at this time and full of surprises (and not all of them happy ones). All of this chaos can distract us from looking deeper as we tend to tune out and distance ourselves when the going gets tough. We numb out with all kinds of distractions and addictions such as Netflix, alcohol, food, work, games, mobile phones, sex, etc. Anything not to feel the chaos. But numbing out the world also means numbing out our deeper self, our higher self, that quiet voice within us, whatever you may call it. So my escape is always being busy, doing, not having to sit down, alone and be silent. That is my addiction, doing. This pattern of putting too much on my plate needs to stop, something needs to change, something needs to die. Yes death, this is a time of dying. Fall… Death = change.

In these times of Fall, I create extra days of silence, of having no plans, of contemplation, journaling and tarot readings. And also to connect more profoundly to those who have gone before us, our ancestors. This is a time of year when death is tangible, nature is dying, the smell of rotting leaves and moist soil is intoxicating, the veil to the other side is thin, the air is crisp and electric. I do love this time of year. I crave silence, rest and shedding skin. Like a snake I let go of my Summer flesh in order to let something new grow. “There is an intensity of connection between the living and the dying so powerful, that it makes all that has gone before insignificant. The ancients called this gnosis – knowledge – a single moment of enlightenment, dazzling.

For an instant all things are clear, the perfect, ineffable pattern revealed in the time between the sighs of a beating heart. Truth and the spirit, the connection between this world and the next.” – Kate Mosse “Citadel”

What in you needs to die now? What habits do you need to kill? What suppresses you? What can you cut out of your life? Death is needed, it is part of the cycle of life, we shouldn’t fight it or be afraid of it.

 

Tarot guidance

Tarot is a wonderful tool to help connect with the Other Side. Tarot helps us listen and take notice of message coming through. It helps us connect visually and helps us see patterns and guides us in our craft.

If we do not remember those who have gone before us, we are destined to repeat the same mistakes. We walk blind through time. ― Kate Mosse, Citadel

Now is a perfect time to tune in to inspiration and advice from our ancestors! You know our ancestors live inside of us, quite literally as they are part of our DNA and this way we carry on memories in our lineage. We carry their knowledge but also habits and beliefs that may not serve you. So it wise to use your discernment and see this as an opportunity to recognize these patterns in your life and to finally release them if needed be.

I am now taking bookings for my annual special Samhain Tarot Readings. There are limited spots available so get your orders in on time.

The veil between the living and the dead grows thinner, it is the in-between time, a perfect time for divination and receiving answers and clarity.

I will be doing these elaborate tarot readings on 30, 31 October and 1 November and the consultations will be delivered in a PDF with elaborate description and pictures of the messages for you (or a recorded video of the reading, you decide). This PDF (or video) will be send to you max a week after the reading. I put in effort to write out all I receive and make it look good as well as I feel this information is something you come back to often in the coming months. So I need a few days 😉

Just to be clear I am doing these for you in private, sacred space and there is no need to set a date and time, just email me with a very clear, open question and some context to your question please.
