Fall Equinox or Mabon Happens on September 22, 2021!

By -


I gotta say that this is one of my happiest times of the year--I am so over the heat and way ready for cooler temperatures, more temperate days. The other season is Spring at the Vernal or Spring Equinox--the end of March or beginning of April. These two days of the year are when the day and the night are equal; there is the balance of light and dark. Right now, as the days progress through the latter part of September, they will get shorter and shorter.

This is the Second Harvest and the Feast of the New Wine. It is time to be grateful for our prosperity and abundance and to give thanks for it. Truly it is a Witch's Thanksgiving! Count your blessings and if you have extra, give to those in need. Prepare for the dark times, the winter is coming, indeed, it is right around the corner.

The Goddesses that come to mind to represent this time of year are Persephone, Lakshmi, Fortuna, the Morrighan, Isis, Ishtar, Ceridwen. Invoke them in your prayers, meditations and spellwork.

CALCULATE YOUR SOUL, PERSONALITY AND YEAR CARD IN TAROT

By -

DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE MATH! To determine your soul and personality card, add the day, month and year you were born.  Take that total and add all of those numbers in a row.  If the sum is more than 22, add together the resulting numbers.  If the sum is between 10 and 22, that number is your  personality card .  Add that number together to find your  soul card . To calculate your  year card , do this:  add the number of the day and the month you were born to the year you want to check your card for.  Then add those numbers all together for the total.  The sum of those numbers is your  year card .  Your year card is in effect and you are under it's influence from your last birth-date to your upcoming (or next) birth-date.    If you have any questions on this, just ask me (use the contact form on this site). *I use the number 22 for the Fool in order to assign a number value to that card.  **Create a chart or an old calendar and calculate p

REVIEW: Mildred Payne's Secret Pocket Oracle by Patrick Valenza/Deviant Moon

Mildred Payne's Secret Pocket Oracle in French--Second Edition Well, I gotta say, I love this little deck! It truly is pocket sized and can fit in the palm of your hand! Throw in your purse or take when you travel, it really takes up hardly any space. Patrick Valenza, the creator and artist of the Deviant Moon Tarot also created this tiny deck. I bought the original First Edition when it was initially published and the original did not have as many cards. There was an expansion pack that came out later to take the deck from the original count to the 69 cards--where it is numbered now. There is another expansion pack that I have seen on the website but not explored yet. Also on the first edition, the backs had unusually drawn designs that could be fit together to make into a really cool puzzle. Both editions came nicely packaged with extra cards, the cards were in a standard tuck-box and included a small red pouch to carry them in. The First Edition had the meanings of the car

Dreams of Gaia Tarot--Large or the Small, Pocket Sized?

Dreams of Gaia Tarot / Large Deck and Pocket Sized Edition Well, it really depends on what you prefer. This is just a short comparison on both decks created by Ravynne Phelan . I love the Dreams of Gaia Tarot , the art work is stunning and the restructuring of the Major Arcana just works for me when doing professional readings. You can find a description of the restructuring of the Major Arcana of this deck HERE .  Sometimes this deck is more oracle in nature and some of the meanings of the cards are different than the standard Rider-Waite-Colman-Smith based decks, but that doesn't seem to matter when one is reading them in a spread and using one's intuition to divine the blending of the cards. I was drawn to the sigils for the elements and the use of them in lieu of the traditional suits of the Tarot deck. My favorite difference in favor of the pocket edition is the lack of borders so the art really pops on the smaller deck! Also the pocket edition has the matte t
