Interesting Links

As promised... Here are some links that I've collected and found interesting.

An organized sort of "lesson plan" that has some useful information in it

Basic Rune stuff, not really an area of expertise so perhaps some of you can help me on this one.

I do like this site....

A free tarot program that downloads to your computer.  Not the same as the real thing, but it has it's own benefits as well.  Quite well designed, I enjoy it.  : )

A nice essay/study about Morgan Le Fay

A good site for any one in Tarot I think...

And for those of you interested in herbs, here's a cool little thing on how not to use them.

Anyway, I hope you can use some of this.  I'll collect some more when my eyelids aren't failing me.  

Perhaps some of you have something to share to?  Let me know!

Creativity Splurrge

Yes, splurrge with two Rs.  I'm dizzy from it!  It's been an incredible day of painting.  I'm simultaneously working on three paintings (watercolor) switching to the next as one dries.  It's such a wonderful feeling!

Coming up with another post for tonight before all my creativity goes to sleep.

I realize that I haven’t done any posts on Tarot.  Shame on me. 

Being that I’m quite new, I wouldn’t expect much of me, but I’m just using this to log my experiences and things I find concerning Tarot such as spreads or new decks that I like. 

So I found this spread from the Newsletter from Tarotschool.com and thought I would give it a shot.

The Spiritual Path Spread:

Position 1: What you need to pay attention to at this time.

Position 2: The current challenge.

Position 3: The hidden influence.

Position 4: Current lesson

Position 5: What not to focus on

Position 6: The next step

Now it didn’t specify any particular position, so I did somewhat of a pentagon/pentagram/circle shape with the 6^th card being in the middle, being the geek I am.

The results I came up with were actually really surprising! It was very thought provoking, and brought up some insightful things that I wasn’t admitting to myself.  So overall, this is a good one that I’m saving in my journal.

Random thought

My eyes show who I am no matter what color they’re painted. When a person evaluates my character, they can look at a number of things to judge what I like, what I do, hold old I am, my intelligence, and my way of life.  I find that a lot of people in my experience will use the clothes I wear, the shoes I wear, how I walk, how I might do my makeup, how my hair looks, etc. Through these indicators, they will judge me.  Are these good indicators?  Well it depends; I can easily dress and “look” how I know myself and how other people know me.  But I can also look completely different from that and still be content.  What should one do then?  Look at me. I’ve met a few people who look past whatever covers me and they tell me things about myself that not many other people might recognize.  They look in and past my eyes and see whatever it is that makes me who I am, that one can only explain through what they think is true.  Nothing has proven this “identity” and what makes it what it is, it’s just something that is understood individually.
