If you’ve watched my channel for a short amount of time, you have probably seen me with one of my all-time favorite oracle decks, the White Rabbit Oracle, by Arianna Seigel. I work with it all the time, for both readings for others as well as for myself. I love the quirky images and she has a great meanings guide for each of the cards. Arianna’s decks are independently produced, but somehow she keeps the costs of her decks relatively inexpensive. And, let’s not even talk about her excellent customer service and free shipping – deck creators/sellers should follow her lead.
This video is my first impressions of the White Rabbit Oracle II. Check it out and please head on over to our Facebook group so we can discuss this deck in detail!
~~We may have been feeling disillusioned, disenchanted with something, or just downright bored. This week we are reflecting and re-evaluating a situation. We are able to recover from a difficult time and have strength to move into a new direction. As we move forward, we are blessed by rapid progress. ~~We have to discern what is not our burden to bear this week. It is not always up to us to get the job done or to fix everything. It’s time to get clear on what’s important and prioritize accordingly. ~~We learn what the secret to manifestation is at the end of the week. A secret is revealed, empowering many of us. Say this affirmation in any given area of life, “I am the key to my _________.” With the magic of affirmative statements, faith, and taking divinely guided action steps, is the “Secret” to manifesting dreams. The Magician tells us we finally are learning how to harness our power for our highest benefit.
Extended Messages: Peace – Your peace of mind greatly depends on what you actively or passively choose to allow into your space. Refuse drama and do not engage with drama mamas this week. Discernment – When we let go of the drama, we make room for peace. Take care to choose wisely. Something that was once very hard to see is now seen clearly. Examine the lessons gleaned this week closely.
Each month I crank out monthly astrological tarot readings for all 12 signs, in areas of general life, love, and abundance. It is my hope that you get the most from these readings. Here’s some quick tips on how to get the most from your monthly readings.
Tip 1: Watch your Sun, Moon and Rising sign videos, but if you only know your Sun sign, that’s okay, too. A complete picture of your month starts to form when you look to all of your signs. Not every moment in your Rising sign will apply to your situation, but likely a nugget of information will fit and totally make the reading resonate even more deeply for you.
Tip 2: Take notes. Catching interesting points, predictions, or potential questions you may have are reasons to be ready to take notes as you watch the videos.
Tip 3: Check out your loved ones astrological tarot readings and see if you pick up on any coincidences or consistencies. It helps to see how the energies are flowing around you and your loved ones.
Tip 4: Have fun! Be sure to relax and enjoy as you watch – this is not meant to be heavy, burdensome, or sad. Even if shadowy type stuff comes up, take it as information that can potentially help you avoid pitfalls or costly setbacks.
Let’s talk insurance for your tarot practice/business and making sure your prized tarot decks are protected, should the unthinkable pops up. One thing I forgot to mention about your tarot decks. I will do a part 2 to this video where we discuss indexing your tarot decks for insurance purposes. More to come!
This 3 part Card by Card series will look at various 4 of Swords from several decks, to pick up themes, nuances, and symbolism that will help better understand the associated card meanings.
As promised during our Facebook Group Live Happy Hour, I am posting my unboxing of the very cute Inner Compass Oracle. This little deck bumped up the long unboxing list I have, because I am too excited to wait on sharing it.
I purchased this deck to go with The Textured Tarot, as I love the modern, collage style and simple key words. The images just pop, the cardstock is premium and silky, and the small cards are easy to handle.
Created by Heather Hoeps of Intuitive Art, The Inner Compass Oracle is a 50 card deck, independently created and sold on Etsy.

April’s focus: Work & Life Balance – Tuning into What Really Matters
We will focus on looking at work/life balance for the metaphysical healer in a not so peaceful world. How do we balance all the demands of life, while trying to carve out time for things that really matter to us? Are you feeling like you’ve got too many balls in the air and not enough arms to juggle? Well, let’s take a closer look at our culture and the busy myth that we all seem to be entrapped by.
I went to my public library last weekend and checked out The Joy of Doing Nothing: A Real-Life Guide to Stepping Back, Slowing
The Joy of Doing Nothing: A Real-Life Guide to Stepping Back, Slowing Down, and Creating a Simpler, Joy-Filled Life, by Rachel Jonat. Available on Amazon.
Down, and Creating a Simpler, Joy-Filled Life, by Rachel Jonat and so far, I like what I’m reading (who doesn’t enjoy a good lesson on doing absolutely nothing?!). There is such a thing as doing absolutely nothing and I am having the most difficult time practicing the concepts…which is leading me to believe I am in desperate need of having some downtime built into my weekly and monthly schedules.
Do you build in time to do absolutely nothing? And if not, what do you think is your biggest obstacle to carving out some “me” time each day? Oftentimes, we lack trust in ourselves, others and in the Universe to get all the things we want accomplished. It is this lack of trust that fuels us to work harder. Yet, working harder only seems to push us further away from happiness, not bring us closer to it. I’d like us to explore the concept of mindful doing nothingness over the next month.
What Defines a do-nothing activity that we can do according to the book:
Your brain should be in idle mode, and you should feel relaxed and peaceful while you perform your activity. Jewelry making comes to mind for me, personally.
It should feel easy to walk away from the activity.
Physical intensity should be very low or nonexistent.
Your mind and body should move and work with little effort.
It should also be fun! It should not feel like a chore or obligation.
Rachel says it’s important to build in time into our daily, weekly, and monthly schedules for do-nothing activities, and I agree. What do-nothing activities do you have in your wellbeing tool chest?
An area of focus for me last month was increasing the duration of my sleep by an hour each night – I promised to keep you posted. Well, I failed horribly! I did not increase my sleep, and in fact, I slept less, as my workaholic tendencies kicked into high gear. I will keep you posted on my progress through this monthly update post or in our Facebook Live Tarot Happy Hour chats. What’s your wellness promise to yourself for the month of April?
