 This is a card about balance.
I would say it's about working too much, but these days, we all do that. If it isn't the job that keeps the lights on and food in the fridge, it's all the other tasks we have to do for everyone else. We all don't have the luxury of being able to take time off from our jobs, or from our responsibilities, so most of the time, we all just do the best we can. This card is urging to you squeeze in some time for you. It doesn't have to be a big thing. It doesn't have to be expensive. It doesn't have to be too time-consuming. But from time to time, we all need the reminder, especially from ourselves, that we matter. So what can you do for yourself that will make you happy? Can you take an hour to go to the beach, or a lake, or a park, or somewhere that you enjoy spending time with just you? How about spending some time listening to music that you love? Or reading a book (or at least part of one)? Or driving through In 'N Out for a milkshake? Just a little something to remind yourself that you deserve to be happy. You can hear me read from this deck for callers on Psychic Tapestry's new Spiritual Tune Up Show, with Michele Amburgey, on Wednesday's and on Psychic Tapestry's Love Show, with Toni DeMaio and Julia Hoffman, on Friday's on Blog Talk Radio!

 Fame. In this sketch by John Lennon, John and Yoko are pictured running away from photographers, an early-1970's version of paparazzi. Tame by today's standards, but they still felt that they were always under the microscope, anytime they ventured out in public. Some would say that's the price of extraordinary success and celebrity. Of course, paparazzi today have ratcheted that up to an alarmingly invasive degree, and it's hard to still believe that it's deserved by those who achieve that kind of success. I don't feel that this card reflects that kind of fame, though. Today, we're all famous (or, at least, most of us are). If you're on social media, in addition to your own circle of family and friends, you are probably connected to many others (some of which, you don't really know at all). And when you post your thoughts, dreams, theories, philosophies, rants, etc., many more people than you realize get to see them. Those who agree, and in some cases disagree, are apt to like, comment or share those posts with their circle of friends. And so on. You have the opportunity to influence, to some degree, many more people than you ever probably thought you would. Not long ago, before there was even MySpace, that seemed pretty far-fetched. But now it's so easy, you don't even realize it. That's what I think this card is about. It's about thinking twice before you post something online, even if you're so very sure that your shrouded in privacy. It's about responsibility. If what you want to post isn't something that you would say to someone in person, or it's something you wouldn't want someone else to hear, consider not posting it at all. We expect celebrities to live up to certain standards, and to act responsibly when they give interviews or engage with others on social media. Now that it's so easy to connect with so many, we should all live up to those standards. We're all famous. This card comes from an oracle deck I created based on the artwork of John Lennon.

Usually, I comment about the particular deck I'm using at the end of the reading, but since this one is much different, I thought I'd do it at the beginning. This card comes from an intuitive oracle deck I've made that I call Ocean Therapy. Here's a little of the explanation of this deck:  What does "Receive" mean to you?
Many see that word and think of a gift or some kind of payday. And if that's what first strikes you, then it's quite possible that's what this means for you. To me, it's a bit more than that. I don't think of it as something tangible. I think of it more as a follow-up to what happens when you "allow". Gaining knowledge, healing and support when we ask our guides and angels for it, and then prepare ourselves to we are ready to receive it. So often, we spend so much time thinking of what we want, whether it's a shiny new car, a loving relationship, a fulfilling career or something else. But how much time do you spend preparing to actually have any or all of those things? Sometimes, it can be as simple as acknowledging that you need help, and willing to accept it - from your friends, your significant other, your family or your guides and angels. But that's what it means to me. This card also mean something completely different to you, and that's absolutely valid. That's how this deck works! If you're interested in getting one of these decks, you can order it RIGHT HERE! Each deck will be made especially for you when you order, which is why it's still showing up as a pre-order. And if 111 cards sounds too big to you, there are two smaller versions that are also available on that same page (along with samples of what some of the other cards in the deck look like).  This card came up a few months ago, and I think that message is worth repeating (especially if you didn't see it the first time around)...
This is a card about perspective. The Hollies' song, "Look Through Any Window", is about walking down the street, and looking in the windows of different houses. In each case, you catch a glimpse of the story that's unfolding there. But not the whole story. This is true of any interactions you have with others. Regardless of what you know, or what you think you know, you're only witnessing a small part of their story. That's something that is all too easy to lose sight of, especially when the part of the story you're seeing isn't something you like or agree with. You'll never really know the whole story. Even if it's someone you're very close to. And that's okay. They'll never know your whole story, either. But it is something to consider when dealing with others. Don't leap to judgments. Don't rush to condemn. And don't be so sure you know how you would have done things differently. Because you don't know. Instead, choose compassion. Choose understanding, especially when you find it so difficult to understand - you can still choose to understand that you don't understand, and that's okay. And above all, choose love. This card comes from my Psychic Jukebox deck, a 78-card tarot deck that I created. It is similar to traditional tarot decks, but all the cards are singers, bands and songs. My deck is actually 80 cards, as there are two blank ones - because sometimes, you already know the answer.
