From Around the Web

On The New Age Review Barbara Graver writes a fascinating piece about attending a mediumship intensive, called Connecting with Spirit: Taking a Closer Look at my Spirit Guide Team.

Arwen Lynch wrote a great piece about the tarot Eight of Cups called Stagnation Makes me Giddy. I love Arwen’s writing style, and her take on the cards.

Do you know James Ricklef? He is a well-known reader with a style like no other. Check out some of his Pithy Tarot Meanings.

How Passions Are Revealed in Tarot

The tarot suit of Wands is associated with the element of Fire, so each Wands card in some way speaks to passion.

The Three of Cups can indicate a passion for music, dance, party planning or entertaining.

The Three of Pentacles can indicate passion for one’s career.

The Six of Pentacles can indicate a passion for charity and community involvement.

The Six of Wands can indicate a passion for sports and athletics, or a competitive nature.

The Six of Swords can indicate a passion for science and discovery.

The Nine of Pentacles and the Seven of Pentacles can indicate a passion for gardening.

The Ten of Pentacles can indicate a passion for one’s home and décor.

The High Priestess can indicate a passion for studious and meditative spiritual development.

The Chariot can indicate a passion for vehicles and travel.

The Moon can indicate a passion for occult studies.

The World can indicate a passion for ecology.

What’s up at the Psychic Café?

On July 28 we enjoyed an encore presentation of our March 10th show, featuring an interview with Dax Carlisle, founder of Tarot Guild.

This coming Sunday, August 4, will encore our show from February 17th, with fiber artist yogini Kianga Jinaki and music by String Band.

Since beginning Christiana’s Psychic Café in December of 2012 I have enjoyed sharing a diverse group of talented people with my growing audience. We have enjoyed hoop dancers, astrologers, energy healers, musicians of all types, tarotists, artists and writers at the Psychic Café.

Christiana in Connecticut and Pennsylvania

I will be in Connecticut from August 2 to August 11.

I will be traveling from July 31 to approximately August 15.

During that time I will continue to be available for phone readings.

My ability to do Skype readings while traveling will depend on the day. I assume I will have internet access at certain points during my trip.

Wherever you are in the world, please do not hesitate to call me at 561-655-1160 to schedule your reading by phone or Skype.

Your One-Card Weekly Reading

Your one-card reading for the week is the Ten of Wands.

In the Waite version of this card we see a person carrying a heavy load. A town is in the distance.

Some people see this as a card of oppression. It can certainly describe feeling overwhelmed and over-burdened.

This card asks you to consider the burdens you are carrying.

Are you carrying emotional baggage from the past that no longer serves you?

Are you taking on responsibilities or worries that are not really yours?

Do you unavoidably have a lot on your plate?

Are you working on a major project?

If you are carrying something you don’t need to carry it is time to let it go.

If what you are carrying is appropriate, know that you will have the strength to do what you need to do, and that the situation will not last forever.
