Hi Monte, you are a dear heart for all the work you do, and for your radiance. It’s an honor to be in your orbit, as I continue to learn from yours & Amys sage offerings. Great thanks for your comment. High beams to you.

Always a pleasure to see your name come up on Twitter. May your break from doing personal readings give you the time and space to help ever more people with your light-bringing work. As a reader who also does psychic work for individuals, businesses, and even TheStreet.com, I know that sometimes you want people to use your guidance and yet you want them to use it in conjunction with their own intuition. They do sometimes. All best wishes. Monte

Ali, this means a lot coming from you as I know your devotion to the genuine craft of Tarot is an honorable one (for those of you who are not familiar with Ali, she is one among the invaluable forces behind TABI: Tarot Association of the British Isles – it’s an amazing organisation, and reflective of Ali’s devotion/commitment to maintaining the integrity of Tarot).

Yes, you’re absolutely correct – a great deal of weight has been lifted after this decision.

Thanks so much for your comment & the continued work you do – so appreciated.
Much love & high beams!

Ah, from a purely selfish reason, am sad to see that you’re no longer giving Tarot readings because I’d been hoping for one myself :-)

I bet you feel so much lighter and freer after having made your decision.

Glad to read that you’re sticking with the Tarot though – you’re too good to lose!

You know, it’s an ultimate statement to read these comments…such brilliant minds, thoughtful souls, escalated awareness. I’m blessed in every way to share this life with you guys.

@Ólöf – love what you’ve said here….especially your phrases “spiritual barometer” and “symbiotic affinity” in context of choice or design of a personal deck. Outstanding. And, sometimes I wonder at the connections I make too. Many of them are surely not (entirely) my own as various energetic lineages come through. My deepest gratitude for you, your insight and for being on this journey with you.

@Donna – love the visual: “dancing fool on the wheel of karma” You know, there is such innocence in that….which is great….for a time. I’m being led to an impression that the label of “naivete” will only go so far. A time is approaching where the blindfold has become moth-eaten and the music that the fool has been dancing to is coming to its finale.

More … after reading what Elyssa wrote, it is obvious that so many people out there want someone else to make their decisions for them. And/or they are so into their negative states that they cast curses on their own experience! I mean, that is really scary to me, and yet I grew from that place long ago, as well, so I still can understand it. Astrology & tarot are not definitives by any means, any more than the future is cast in stone, mutable as it is by the dancing fool on the wheel of karma … our free will. Yet an individual who accepts their own empowerment is also accepting responsibility for themselves, their decisions, their actions, and everything that goes along with it. Therein lies the rub, I think.

Hm, great string, yes?

How wise of you… the ultimate goal of tarot seekers could indeed be to design a personalized set of cards, or to form a symbiotic affinity to a specific tarot deck, tuning in, as it were, and using it as a mirror, or a spiritual barometer of sorts. I do value your insights, and I hugely enjoy reading your pages, often wondering at the connections you make. Anyway, I wish you all the best on your ongoing journey in the realm of symbols.

Hi Elyssa, thanks so much for that confirmation. It is rattling, but you apparently have a remarkable way of manuevering through the unique challenges inherent to reading. I can totally relate to what you’re saying, and I’m utterly grateful for your plight to maintain integrity. There is such a need for you, and your perspectives. You have my respect for the work you are doing.

Bless you Donna as you have been a profound voice of reason in my life. You are so right in this statement: “As we exercise discernment in our lives, these decisions become crystal clear.” Yes, indeedy they do, and I’m anticipating unique responses (in a larger sense) from this choice. Thanks so much – you are every bit my soul-sister.

I completely agree with you! I turn away more people than i read for. No matter how much you tell some one that the cards are guidance not rules, that they need to meditate on the meaning of the card as it relates to them, they still hang on every word with literal meaning. I am still discussing this with someone who insists her third marriage will end in divorce (based on a reading done by some one else) and she is not even married yet!
