it's the most wonderful time of the year!

It’s that time of year, kids!  Autumn is officially here, the weather is finally changing, and Halloween is right around the corner!  This is the favorite season of many, and really, what’s not to love?  I remember my very first autumn as a Pagan, and suddenly, it was like seeing the world for the very first time!  New scents, new sights, new sounds – I still look back on that year fondly! 

During this time of transition and celebration, we have a lot to look forward to.  As the veil thins and the membrane between the worlds becomes more permeable, it becomes easier to gaze into the other sides.  This time of year has always been a prime-time for divination, for gazing into the past, present, or future – or maybe even different worlds all together! 

In celebration of this most wonderful time of the year, I’m offering a discount over at my Etsy shop.  I do tarot card readings in person, too, but Etsy has proven to be a great place for me to read for people who might not be local.

 

This year I’m offering discounted readings on two of my favorite decks – the The Zombie Tarot and the Halloween Oracle!  The Zombie Tarot was a birthday gift from my sister a few years ago, and the Halloween Oracle was a deck I picked up when I was working at a local metaphysical and occult shop.  Both of these decks have charm, sass, and great personality, plus the artwork is amazing, too!  The Zombie Tarot is a great combination of pop culture images mixed with classic tarot card meanings and symbolism.  The Halloween Oracle takes some of the most beloved images of this Halloween and autumnal season and combines them with oracular messages and beautiful, breathtaking artwork.

 

So mosey on over to my Etsy shop and get yourself a reading!  Readings will be discounted until November, and please, as always, message me if you have any questions or comments!  Until then, Happy Spooky Season, everyone!

(and don't forget - I'm teaching a tarot class over at EsotericMysticism.org with my friend Bryan.  Archetypal communication, divination, ancient religion and occult philosophy?  We're having a blast over there!)

Beltane, Etsy, and tarot... oh my!

Blessed Beltane, everyone!  Beltane is one of my favorite holidays – dancing, feasting, singing, flowers, merrymaking… what’s not to love?  This year I’m celebrating my hosting a viewing party of one of my all-time favorite movies ever – The Wickerman!  After cocktails and movies, I’m going to a concert, and then attending two Druid rituals (two different traditions) and later I’m hosting a devotional rite to Hekate.  Soon I’ll be teaching a workshop on runes at Unitarian Universalist Women’s Spirit, and after that my Circle will be hosting its own Beltane ritual.  As you can see, there’s so much to love about this month!

But not only am I excited about the May season, but I’m excited to finally get my Etsy shop revamped, redesigned, and up and running!  I started my Etsy shop many, many years ago, but never really had the time or talents to make it what I wanted.  I re-started the project a few months ago, and finally the stars aligned, and I’m all ready to officially roll out my little shop.

I’d like to eventually offer fun witchy things like oils, incense, and jewelry, but right now I’m just selling tarot card readings.  I’ve been reading the tarot since 2001, and since then reading for others has been one of my favorite hobbies.  I’m offering readings from a few of my favorite decks because I really like the variety, and more than that, different decks bring them own energy to a reading.  Some energies are more appropriate than others depending on the nature of the question being asked.  I’m offering a few different options, too, ranging from a one card oracle reading, to a full ten-card Celtic-cross spread, so there are possibilities for every question and every budget.

In addition, in honor of Beltane and of my new-and-improved Etsy shop, I’m offering a discount coupon for each and every purchase starting now (April 27) to May 31.  It’s my special way of saying THANK YOU and also, wishing you all a very blessed Beltane and May-tide season!  So, be sure to use the coupon code BELTANE if you purchase any readings from my shop.

In addition to offering a coupon discount, I’m offering half-off readings from Le Tarot des Femmes Erotiques.  Typically I offer one-card oracle readings from this deck at $5, but in honor of Beltane and for the next seven days, readings from this deck will be offered at half-price.  It’s such a fun deck, and it reads really well.  Do you have any questions regarding love, sex, or romance?  This is the perfect time of year to address such questions, and this is the perfect deck to do the job!  But don’t limit your questions to themes of sensuality and pleasure – there are no limits to what this deck can address!  It was a gift to me from a special friend, and it’s quickly become one of my all-time favorite decks.  It works great at one-shot, quick questions, offering deep insight and meaning with just one card (when sometimes other decks require a whole ornate spread to do the same job!)

So, please check out my Etsy shop, and stay tuned for when I post some witchy items, too.  Consider getting a reading for yourself or for a friend, and most of all, have a very blessed and merry Beltane season!  (And don’t forget the coupon code BELTANE)!

Stay lovely, my friends!
