  • The Maypole Tarot Spread (Beltane)

    The Maypole Tarot Spread (Beltane)

    The Maypole is all about movement around a center.

    Ribbons weaving in and out, crossing, circling, building something through motion instead of straight lines. That’s what Beltane energy feels like. Things aren’t just starting. They’re interacting, pulling together, shifting around each other.

    This spread follows that same idea.

    Lay one card in the center. This is your pole, your anchor point. Then place four cards in a circle around it, like the ribbons moving around the pole.

    Keep it simple. No complicated layout, no overthinking.

    Center Card: The Heart of the Matter
    This is what everything is turning around right now. The core of the situation, whether it’s obvious or not. This is your anchor.

    Top Card: What Is Opening
    This shows what is beginning to expand or come forward. Something gaining light, attention, or energy. This is where things are starting to move.

    Right Card: What Is Being Drawn In
    This is what is coming toward you. People, opportunities, shifts, or changes that are being attracted into your space right now.

    Bottom Card: What Is Rooted
    This shows what already has a foundation. What is steady, supportive, and holding things in place, even if it’s quiet or easy to overlook.

    Left Card: What Needs to Loosen
    This is where things are too tight, stuck, or restricted. Not something to fight, just something to ease so energy can move more freely.

    Take a moment to look at the whole spread.

    Notice how everything connects back to the center. What’s moving toward you, what’s opening, what’s steady, and what needs a little space. It’s not about forcing anything forward. It’s about understanding how things are already moving so you can work with it instead of against it.

    That’s the Maypole.

  • What Should Your Garden Grow? (A Simple 3-Card Tarot Spread)

    What Should Your Garden Grow? (A Simple 3-Card Tarot Spread)

    Some readings are about answers. This one is about choices.

    Think of it like planning a garden. You’re not trying to plant everything at once. You’re choosing what belongs in your space right now, what will actually grow, and what you’ll enjoy tending.

    This three-card spread keeps it simple and useful.

    Shuffle your cards, take a breath, and lay out three cards from left to right.

    Card One: What to Plant
    This is your seed. A fresh start, a small action, or an idea that wants to begin. It doesn’t need to be big or perfect. In fact, the smaller and more doable it is, the better it tends to grow.

    Card Two: What to Nurture
    This is what’s already in your life that will flourish with a little steady attention. Something worth tending. Give it time, consistency, and care, and it will build on what’s already there.

    Card Three: What to Celebrate
    This is what’s already blooming. A success, a strength, or something you’ve created that deserves to be recognized. Not rushed past. Not minimized. Enjoyed.

    Take a moment to look at the three together.

    There’s a natural rhythm here. One new seed. One area you’re tending. One place that’s already in bloom. When you focus on those three things, growth happens without forcing it.

    You don’t need to plant everything. You don’t need to fix everything. You just need to choose what you’re giving your attention to.

    That’s how a garden fills in.

    One seed, one steady hand, and one moment where you stop and realize something is already growing.

  • A Simple Beltane Tarot Spread (3 Cards)

    A Simple Beltane Tarot Spread (3 Cards)

    Beltane is a season of movement.

    Where earlier spring is about waking up, Beltane is about things actively growing. Energy is warmer, faster, more outward. It’s a good time to look at where things are opening, what’s gaining momentum, and what’s ready to be encouraged forward.

    This three-card spread keeps it simple and focused.

    Shuffle your cards, take a breath, and lay out three cards from left to right.

    Card One: What Is Beginning to Grow
    This card shows what is starting to take root or gain momentum in your life. It may still be small or uncertain, but there is life in it. This is where your attention naturally wants to go right now.

    Card Two: What Needs Encouragement
    This card points to something that would benefit from a little more energy, care, or consistency. Not force, just support. It may already be present, but it hasn’t fully opened yet.

    Card Three: Where Energy Is Moving
    This card shows the direction things are naturally going if you allow them to unfold. It helps you see where the current is already carrying you, so you’re working with movement instead of against it.

    Take a moment to look at all three together.

    Notice what feels active, what feels steady, and what feels like it’s asking for a little more attention. Beltane is not about pushing everything forward at once. It’s about recognizing where there is life and giving it space to grow.

    Let us know how this went for you?

  • Venus and the Sun

    So I wanted to talk a bit about a Venus and Sun conjunction we have recently experienced in the sign of Libra.

    First, what does all that astro mumbo jumbo mean? Well…the sun is the sign of the self, your identity. When someone asks you what your "sign" is the answer most people give is the sign that the Sun was astrologically transiting in the heavens on the day they were born. For example, if your birthday is today, October 27, you were born when the sun was in the sign of Scorpio. But the sun, as a rule astrological, translates to the self.

    Venus is the planet that rules love and romantic love especially. Also anything that gives us pleasure-lovely art, delicious food, music, beautiful poetry, falls under the gaze of Venus. And Libra, in the 12 houses of the zodiac, rules the 7th house, or the house of partnerships.

    So this sun and Venus conjunction in Libra on a very universal level, is giving humankind an opportunity to take stock of our personal relationships. What relationships nourish or deplete you? If you are single, what traits do you want to attract ( or avoid) in a potential partner? How do you approach relationships? Is there room for improvement in your own behavior? Do you and your current partner need to make some changes to improve your relationship? 

    These are all things that have been coming to and will continue to be, in the forefront as this conjunction finishes out in the heavens. And don't be afraid to put your intentions out there for the things you want in relationships right now!
