Instead of twice weekly posts this month, I'll be doing a count-down to December 25. Those who celebrate Yule can stop on the 21 and those who celebrate Christmas or both, keep going. On the first day of December, Tarot gave to me...the 3 of Pentacles from the Robin Wood Tarot. December is here! Where has the time gone? I better get serious about all those gifts, cookies, and decorations I planned on making. Read more about the Robin Wood Tarot HERE.

I’ve noticed I’ve spent a lot of energy focusing on the dark dreariness of this month. But why? Lighten up, I tell myself. And what better way than to explore the glittery, glamorous side of life? I think I’ll dive into Tarot Diva and come up with some inspiration for a Midwinter Girls’ Day Tarot Party. I challenge you to do the same!

There are lots of good writers and artists in Minnesota. One theory is that because we have such long winters, it encourages us to stay inside and work. I know that I am devoting many of my working hours this winter to finishing my novel. So I’ll have this book by my side:   Do you have any projects or plans that will help you while away the long, cold, dark winter days?  

You know, tarot readers are usually either Rider-Waite-Smith types or Thoth-types. More and more, I am noticing that there is an emerging group of Marseille-types as well. Being a RWS gal, I do neglect the other two. Since I have no expertise to share on either of these, I’ll point you in the direction of a good book:   Dig in and explore!
