I don’t know about you, but lockdown has made me lethargic. I feel as if, the less I do, the less I want to do and find it difficult to muster the enthusiasm needed to do anything more than exactly what is required of me. However, this lack of mojo recently changed following a chat Steven and I had about [...]
My goodness what a year, this time last year the word Coronavirus and Covid19 were not even in our vocabulary, now they we hear them every day. January started just fine, just like any other year, planning events, holidays and projects but by March Coronavirus well and truly landed and changed everything. Being honest, during the first lockdown, we did [...]
November 2020 - Welcome to my new website, yes it definitely was about time I stripped out 17 years of news and tucked it away in the archive. I hope you find this new site easy to navigate and enjoy the content. What has changed? After the success of the UK Tarot Conference Virtual event this October, it has encouraged [...]
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.

Artwork Victoria Frances & Book by Kim Arnold Lo Scarabeo £15.99 When I was first approached to write the accompanying book for this deck I was thrilled, however, on receiving the images initially my heart sank (stay with me), some of the images I found distressing, but I had committed to write, so no turning back. Working with this deck [...]
Hay House My first impression of this deck is that it is half way between a Tarot and Oracle deck. There are 78 cards, and the suits are divided in to Earth, Air, Fire and Water. My initial curiosity was to flick through the cards to find Death and as I thought, no Death but Transformation. The borderless cards are [...]
A couple of years ago it was decided that instead of buying Grandma a Christmas present we would travel to a European city and have a few days away, last year we went to Berlin, this year Prague. We drove to Grandma’s the night before, Martin as always equipped for travel, had his supply of clear see through bags as [...]
Published by Watkins £14.99 The first thing that struck me about this deck is the quality, beautifully packaged and designed with a vibrant orange theme, it certainly stands out from the crowd. On opening an 80 page booklet it provides a good amount of information about each card. Also pages are dedicated to a brief history on Tarot, the definition of what [...]
Over the last couple of years colouring books for adults have flooded the market. I know this because I have had quite a collection given to me as presents, but the luxury of spending a couple of hours of colouring is quite a way down on my list at the moment. Anyway I digress. This lovely book popped through the [...]
