Margate and TS Eliot & The Wasteland (who knew)

2018-08-15T12:56:45+01:0015 August 2018|blog|

I only recently found out that this very shelter, about 5 miles from where I live, is where T S Eliot wrote some of his famous lines from the Wasteland.  In 1921, after suffering a nervous breakdown he came to Margate to recuperate, in this very spot he allegedly spent many hours pondering and writing.  I don't think the extract [...]

By Chrissie Astell , Illustrated by Rene Milot - Published by Watkins  (RRP £15.99) Another deck of Angel Oracle cards hits the shelves, this is a topic which seems to just keep on giving.  It interests me, as in how much there is still to offer from the Angel world and I am delighted that these cards deliver something different.  [...]

When you just can’t say NO!

2018-02-26T15:59:57+00:0026 February 2018|blog|

It has been a strange and difficult few months, with the decline of my father’s health I made a choice that I would pretty much stop work and help to look after him.  His passing on the 29th January was the biggest tragedy of my life to date.  I know I should be grateful that I have been blessed with [...]

The Hierophant a Special Man

2018-02-05T15:52:21+00:005 February 2018|blog|

As you probably know by now my darling Dad passed on the 29/1/2018 = 23 = 5.   The Hierophant. Dad was a leader in everything he did, so fitting he went ‘home’ on this day.  Amongst the tears this week there has also been much laughter as we recalled stories from the past, he had the most wonderful sense [...]

2017 What a Year

2017-12-20T20:00:53+00:0020 December 2017|blog|

Looking back at 2017 it has been a year of incredible highs and lows.   My trip to Thailand was amazing, then shortly after a visit to Prague.  Thailand was on my bucket list and it certainly lived up to my expectations and more, not only was it a spiritual journey but also a trip full of laughter and sunshine. In [...]

2017-11-13T20:04:49+00:0013 November 2017|blog, news|

Delighted to receive an early copy of the November/December 2017 Kindred Spirit magazine with my reviews of 20 decks. Some decks were beautiful and easy to engage with and one or two I did find challenging, but I hope I gave a fair and accurate account of all the decks.

Guy Fawkes Spread 5th November 2017

2017-11-05T14:18:55+00:005 November 2017|blog|

On 5 November every year, the effigy of Guy Fawkes is still burned on bonfires across England in recognition of his part in the failed 'Gunpowder Plot' of 1605.  This spread helps to recognise why we fail to reach our goals and what we need to ignite our drive! Before you begin, think about what you would like to achieve [...]

2017-10-19T15:53:12+01:0019 October 2017|blog|

Today I had a wonderful morning teaching Tarot to 16 art students from the USA. It was a mixed group of both beginners and advanced Tarot readers, so I decided to work with something everyone could engage in, birth and soul cards.  Fabulous. I had a really busy day planned for my time in London including looking at a couple [...]
