What's Happening ... (Part One)

Greetings, friends. Hope all is well with everyone! Just some odds 'n' ends this post. This past week, I was asked by a dear, long time friend to do a tarot reading for her. I had not read the tarot for anyone in a long, long, time, but I agreed to do a reading for her none-the-less. So, the next night after I got home from work, I performed her reading. Now, I usually prefer to do a reading in-person, but since that was not possible, I used a picture of her I had on hand. The reading was very disturbing to say the least and so I did a separate reading to be sure. BTW, you may do up to three readings within a moon cycle (in other words, a month). To my surprise and confusion, the same two cards came up in both readings - 10 of Swords (terrible personal loss), and the Page of Cups reversed (a young person you know is in trouble). Unbeknownst to me at the time of the reading, my friend's oldest son had passed away only last month in a traumatic motorcycle accident while going to work. He was only 21 years old and to add to the tragedy, she and her son had a bad argument that same morning.

When I explained the readings to her, she told me that she assumed that I knew that her son had passed away - I didn't! I advised her that both she and her son needed to have closure in order for him to cross over in peace. In some cases, the fact that the death was so sudden and traumatic there is a possibility that they may not even realize that they have passed away. I speak from personal experience.

Naturally, she had asked me how she may be able to give him peace. There are a couple of ways in which to do this and I will further delve into this subject in my next post this coming week.

Moving on, I added a new decoration to my home that I found two weeks ago at "The Fairgrounds Market" ...
