Dear Yogis,

I have decided to go back to my DAILY covid posts with a difference – I am going to draw a tarot card EVERY DAY, relate it to my life, and wonder how it relates to yours – you can always draw one and let me know what your draw is, and how it has changed your day!

Today – Five of Cups.

It looks like The Hermit card,  but look more closely, it is not – but you are most definitely alone, making your decisions on your own. The person in the image stares down in despair at three cups of wine, completely oblivious to the two that remain behind them,  upright

It could be that you have experienced a profound loss in your life recently, not difficult in this post covid community. This could be the loss of a relationship or loved one, or perhaps a business opportunity or lifestyle. Often, the Five of Cups appears when you have experienced a metaphysical loss: of trust, of optimism, of dreams and ambitions. Yet the message of the card is crystal clear: all is not lost – in this loss you must find the glimmer of hope,  there is always a light opposite the shadow even if it is not apparent at first. You can find the positives and cherish that which you still have. Look for your blessings in places you wouldn’t normally think to, and the Universe will provide them trust her.

This is so relevant to me.  I am moving into new fields, not letting the yoga go, keeping in mind that yoga has been the central point in my life…. but being nudged (pushed) into opening myself to new opportunities in the tarot.   Is this happening for you?  No matter where I go, when I mention the tarot, people warm up, open up, and become clients – the universe taking care of me.  If you remember the Church told me a couple of years ago that my “gifts were not required”.  They have recently changed their mind, and I have been welcomed back (one of the two upright cups?). Once again the Universe taking care of me.

To book a reading with me (studio preferred, zoom available), $85 per session,   please make an appointment via my email.  yogafirst2@bigpond.com.      

DON’T FORGET – I will be doing a demonstration/talk at the Theosophical Society Rooms in Flinders Lane Melbourne.  When? This coming Saturday at 1.30.  I look forward to seeing you there.  And will shortly be starting my METAPHYSICAL CLASSES (THE “HOW-TO”) ON-LINE AND/OR IN THE STUDIO

Dear Yogis,

I just love the mixed bag that working for myself brings.  The good, the bad and the ugly – you just have to work with what you have and move on.

THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY:  

This Saturday I am abandoning the Woodend ship and going into Melbourne to Chat at The Theosophical Society about how I prepare and paint THE TAROT ON TEA BAGS.  If you want to join me, For members it is free, for  non-members a donation of $2 is encouraged (almost free!).  Details below.

DEAR YOGIS,

It is a confusing time.  During the lock down we were all so close (on zoom), we had to be.  Now time and space have collapsed and we have all gone our separate ways, and yoga once again has become a weight loss exercise!  Not in this studio.  I am here for you – holding the space.

After nearly a year and a half of knocking on the door so to speak, there is the possibility that Windarring is opening its doors to clients of mine who have a disability and or wheelchairs which means they can’t come to our studio.  I am in conversation to see if we can organise guidelines to make yoga time with me at Windarring possible.  I have tried before and failed, but perhaps persistence pays off….

TAROT/ART/SEWING – on the creative front I have been so very busy BUT we still have room for you.  One of my friends, a Tarot/Astrology/Crystal reader and I are going to open the doors towards the end of the year and have a CHRISTMAS festival.  We would have held it earlier, but, we are both pretty busy.  Christmas will allow us to make gifts, gift vouchers, and others bits and pieces around our readings.   Keep reading this space to hear more as we firm the date up.

A FESTIVE QUILT – Over the weekend I picked up a lovely thing which has/will become a quilt.  I saw it, couldn’t decide and went home, the next day I had to work but I decided I needed it.  I left a note under their door, and magically they read it and held the quilt for me.  I have got half way to making it beautiful with a gorgeous peacock coloured silk binding.  I am not sure i will be able to part with it, the colours are perfect for my bedroom.  But, after I have lived with it you may decide you need it too, or one like it.  Now I have seen how it was made (quite different from the usual), I can make one for you.
