Maybe It’s Not Too Late!

 
One of the biggest anxieties I see at the tarot table is the fear of the missed opportunity. There is even a specific tarot card that expresses that fear; the Five of Pentacles.
 
Typically, in that card image we see injured, impoverished people trudging in the snow past a lit building wherein we imagine they might have found shelter.
 
The question that card sometimes causes us to ask is whether we ourselves have failed to see the opportunity to enter the metaphoric building, or if we have been denied entry or cast out by something over which we have no control.
 
Is it too late to turn around and enter the door?
 
It’s true that sometimes we miss once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, and it’s sad when that happens. That can be our own fault, the fault of others, or sometimes just poor timing or bad luck.
 
Very often, though, I think we miss opportunities because we believe we are already too late, when really, if we thought about it a different way, we might be right on time.
 
Whether it’s love, success, creativity or happiness we desire, giving up because we believe it’s too late to find what we want is very often a cop-out, and a self-fulfilling prophesy.
 
The next time you find yourself thinking that a ship has already sailed, think again! Sometimes things of quality just take time to manifest, and sometimes the Universe saves the best for last!

Divine Timing Tarot Spread

 
We are all waiting for something, whether it is the manifestation of our goals and wishes, the completion of a project, healing from trauma or a long-anticipated relationship.
 
As time goes on, sometimes it feels that our working and waiting will never avail us. Very often that discouragement causes things to take even longer!
 
This is an original 13-card tarot spread designed to help you set, understand and meet your goal, cultivate patience along the way, and proactively work toward your success.
 
Think about a long-term goal, personal or professional, that you have been frustrated with, or worried that it is too late to manifest.
 
Arrange twelve cards like the face of a clock, starting with the 1 o’clock position as the first card, and laying the cards out clockwise, letting the last card be the 12 o’clock.
 
Place a final thirteenth card in the very center.
 
When you interpret a larger spread such as this one, make sure you interpret trends in distribution – are there suits that are prevalent, or missing? Are there lots of Major Arcana cards, or few? What stories do the cards help each other tell? Do some cards give more information than others, or seem more significant?
 
Card 1 describes your goal, or your feelings about your goal.
Card 2 describes your ability, or actions, or advice to visualize, plan and manifest your goal.
Card 3 describes how you enlist and engage people around you in the process of working toward your goal.
Card 4 describes your fears, worries or problems dealing with the passage of time, and how long it is taking, or might take, to fulfill your goal.
Card 5 describes the impediments thus far – why is it taking so long, or what problems have arisen?
Card 6 offers advice to get yourself moving and motivated.
Card 7 describes something you think or tell yourself that isn’t helpful in achieving your goal.
Card 8 discusses your time management habits as they affect achieving your goal.
Card 9 discusses the role luck and fate may play in your future success.
Card 10 discusses the lessons and achievements you have already accomplished.
Card 11 discusses your capacity for patience, or what you must do to be more patient.
Card 12 shows us your possible final outcome.
 
The final card, in the center, has to do with divine timing. This is an opportunity for the Universe to ring in and give you advice or insight regarding the spiritual aspects and implications of achieving your goal in the perfect time, and why the perfect time might be later than you thought!
 
When you perform the spread, consider the advice you are receiving. If there are cards that don’t seem to support your ultimate success, think about what you can do to change those energies and move forward. Interpret all cards as advice for your ultimate success.

Create Your Success, Regardless of Your Circumstance

Lots of news to announce, including our Holiday Open House, my new office in Palm City and our next Global Tarot Circle on Facebook Live!

Create Your Success, Regardless of Your Circumstance



While we are all created equal, we do not come in to this world with equal advantage.

Many times, we cannot control our circumstances, or the way fortune works in our lives.

The control we do have is how we react to every situation.

The more we are willing to work with what we have with a positive attitude, and the less we lament our sorrows and shortcomings, the more success we have.

Call it “The Secret”, the Law of Attraction, creative visualization or the power of positive thinking – it all means the same thing.

When we make the best of a situation, no matter what it is, we receive blessings.

When we have gratitude, even during difficult times, we end up with even more for which to be grateful.

Often it seems that the holiday season points out the things that are lacking in our lives, be they money, health, a dear loved one, or the energy to get everything done in time.

This year, if you are focusing on a particular lack or loss, it’s appropriate to acknowledge that. It’s OK to wish things were different.

As you look to the New Year, however, take the time to imagine and visualize wonderful things for yourself and for those around you.

Consider your blessings, no matter how small, with gratitude.

It can be a challenge to stay positive in life when it feels that life is throwing you curve-balls. Rising to that challenge will help you make the most of what is, and help you create the best 2017 you can.

The more you can visualize your success, regardless of your circumstance, the more successful you will be.


Three Ways to Make the Most of What You’ve Got During the Holidays and Beyond



So often during the holidays we get caught up in the stress and expectations of the season. When that happens, we often lose sight of our blessings, and lose focus from our goals.
 
1. Be Prayerful.
If there is something you need, ask for it in prayer. Let prayer be a tool of healing, and of comfort. As you pray, you attune your energy to your need, or your goal.
 
2. Be Mindful.
While it is important to plan for the future, it is equally important to stay in the moment. That can be hard when we are counting down the days to a holiday, but that makes your mindfulness even more important. Let the season be more about your presence than your presents.
 
2. Be Divinatory.
Whether you use tarot, runes or simply check in for answers, divine on questions like this:

How can I be more mindful?

How can I be more appreciative?

What must I do to create what I want in my life?

How can I better cope with my difficulties?

What spiritual gifts can I find within the things that cause me to suffer?


I Am Open for Business in Palm City!


My new office is located in the WestBridge Building, 1025 SW Martin Downs Blvd, Palm City, 34990. Call or text me at 561-655-1160 for your in-person reading, or to pick up a gift certificate for a friend.

If you are not familiar with the area, Palm City is right next to Stuart, and is an easy drive from Jupiter, West Palm, Fort Pierce and other Treasure Coast and Palm Beach locations.

It is great to be back on the Atlantic side of Florida. Come see me soon!

Of course I am already missing my friends in the Tampa Bay Area. I will travel back for parties and events, so don't be shy - reach out and let's get together!

Remember, too, that I am also always available for readings by phone, Skype and FaceTime, so don’t hesitate to reach out to schedule yours.


The Week in Review



Now that we are moved to a lovely condo in Stuart and my office is open in Palm City, I’ll be getting back to the business of blogging, making videos, and sending regular newsletters.

Here are a few things I have managed to publish recently.

On my Dark Forest Blog, I shared a piece of “Uncommon Business Advice”. Stop looking for your niche, and let it find you!

On my YouTube Channel, here’s another answer to a question about tarot. (Please subscribe while you are there!)
 

From Around the Web


When I was in college I had to read a book that ended up changing my life. That book was Viktor Frankl’s “Man’s Search for Meaning”.
Today I stumbled on this wonderful article about Mr. Frankl and his stunning perspective and philosophy.

Here’s another tarot-based writing prompt from Jamie Morris.

If you are gift shopping for the witchy woman in your life, try these fun subscriptions!
 

Song of the Week


In keeping with our theme, here is Ella Fitzgerald with “Aint’ What You Do, It’s the Way That You Do It”. If you are looking for something a little more contemporary, here’s Bananarama and Fun Boy 3’s cover of the same song. 


Join me for 2017: Embrace Your Power, Manifest Your Goals



This New Year I am doing a very special program, and you are welcome to join me!

Would you like to make real change this year, instead of just making resolutions?

This one-time program offers special techniques for discovering and releasing the things that hold you back.

Each participant will have three private meetings with me via phone or Skype, and the opportunity to attend one video class in real-time or archive. Each participant will receive a specific action plan to help release what no longer serves you, find your power, identify your goals and achieve them.

Make your 2017 the best year ever.

Find more information on my website, and sign up today!

Your One-Card Weekly Reading


Four of Pentacles


Did you miss these weekly readings while the newsletter was on hiatus? I know I did!

This week’s card is the Four of Pentacles.

Often we see this as the card of the miser; it can discuss selfishness, or a “lack mentality”.

In the context of our theme this week, this card instructs us not to focus on what we don’t have.

However, this card can encourage us to take good care of ourselves and our resources.

In dealing with others, the Four of Pentacles advises good boundaries. This can be an important message as we plan to gather with family members.

This week, take care of yourself. Try to worry less about what you don’t have, and be grateful for what you do have. And, if necessary, make sure you keep comfortable boundaries with the people around you.


Upcoming Events



Monday, December 12, 7 pm
Global Tarot Circle on Facebook Live!


Join us online for an hour of tarot fellowship with tarot enthusiasts around the world. Simply visit my business page on Facebook, hit LIKE, and, at the day and time of the meeting, look for the live feed.

We use the comments as a chatroom, so get ready to participate in a fun, holiday themed tarot event.



 
Sunday, December 18, 12:30 – 5
Holiday Open House
Palm City Professional Building
2646 Southwest Mapp Road, Palm City, FL, 34990


 
Join some of the area’s well-known readers along with some new psychic talent for an afternoon of free readings for a good cause!

We’ll be taking over the hallways of the Palm City Professional Building, courtesy of the building’s owners. This is just one block away from my new office!

Bring your donation of non-perishable food items, and enjoy free sample readings with our volunteers. Bring a holiday treat for the snack table if you like.

If you have questions, call me at 561-655-1160.

Visit the event listing on my website for more information.  Bring a friend, and join us as we celebrate the holidays together.
