Tarot by Jacqueline | Denial is a River in Egypt
Oh Lord, I’ve SWUM in this river. Sometimes it was deep. Sometimes stanky and gross. Sometimes dark, but all times not a good place to Be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The woman that has received a reading some time ago, texts me out of the blue. She has the opportunity to begin (yet again) her life over in a new place. We do a new reading. The cards indicate “GO girl!”, and the future looks pretty good. The one cautionary card, Exu, indicates watching out for the one who “runs the streets and does not reveal...

May is the month to honor our Mothers and it will be an awkward one as not only we are social distancing to keep the COVID-19 spread to a minimum, but also most of our mothers are entering in or in the age groups that are most affected by the possibility of the most severe of consequences of catching the coronavirus – death.

Earlier in the year, I had posted a celebration altar ritual for him to be set on his day, but the scourge that is World is facing cancelled those plans. Now I can understand how little children, and teens graduating are feeling about the cancellation of their special day. Think of the weddings being cancelled. Life being put on hold for awhile.

Happy Springtime! We are in the throes of the battle of our lives and yet we can have hope and optimism that if we follow the guidelines, we can diminish any threat to us and our families and loved ones. It was disheartening to see last month that beaches and parks were teeming with people not thinking about their health, but we must remember as Humans, we were given a Divine gift of Discernment, which separates us from the animals of the Earth. We have decision making power, and can take in information and...
