In an interview with Sam Block from The Digital Ambler in the Glitch Bottle podcast, he said something about divination that has stayed with me for some time, and it is that divination is for seeing the bumps, or obstacles, ahead as we navigate down the river of life. This has been rephrased in myContinue reading “Telling Fortunes in Times of…”

La obra de caridad
I live on an island in the Caribbean as I’m sure some of you may already know or be aware of. This island is sort of an indentured part of the US. All this going on in the States is something I’ve been watching unfold, with much anxiety, pain and worry. While watching and prayingContinue reading “La obra de caridad”
A litany of sorrows and a song of hope
I am heartbroken about so many things both little and big, close and far. That we, as in my son, partner, and I are isolated from contact, physical, from those in our families. That fear and anxiety is the medium of the message everywhere I look. That my son was not able to enjoy theContinue reading “A litany of sorrows and a song of hope”
Saint Justina: a candle in the dark
Some days ago, I was catching up with friends in these isolated times, and reading on how others are managing in their homes with reduced physical contact with others. I thought back to different times, places, and hardships. How others have navigated trying times. I thought of the Saints and of persons in history thatContinue reading “Saint Justina: a candle in the dark”
On the negotiating table
For the month of May I’m going to come at the augury from a different angle. Instead of a general look at the month, I want to look ahead with a purpose. So I’m asking the cards for suggested ways of better flourishing for May. The cards responded with… Seek to fill your heart withContinue reading “On the negotiating table”
The Suits In Their Element
When I see the pips, the elements do not come first, instead, as I mentioned in the opening of this series, their phenomenological virtues (qualities) comes first. By this I mean their tangible physical life applications and the processes arising out of their applications and uses, and what is mirrored in the cards at play.Continue reading “The Suits In Their Element”
Of shadows and corners
It’s day number I’m not sure when everything closed down, I’ve always worked from home but now it’s with my partner and child present, which makes for interesting work times. While home, and separated from regular weekend adventures with others and at the beach, we’ve been taking mostly daily walks around our neighborhood. Which hasContinue reading “Of shadows and corners”
To Define Witch?
Recently, during a live private interview, I was asked a question that has stayed with me the past couple days. And it is, what is my advice for someone wanting to get into witchcraft? Not the exact words. Basically, what is my advice for beginner witches. Faced with this question I somewhat initially pushed againstContinue reading “To Define Witch?”
Almost hanging by a thread
I stood before my kitchen table, shuffled the cards with April in mind, and laid them down. I confess, looking back now at March’s augury it was propitious that the cards called for temperance and a re-positioning of our chessboard, as all this pandemic and quarantine business loomed on the horizon. And now poised forContinue reading “Almost hanging by a thread”
Sensuous Bodies
Every morning I wake up and after the usual teeth brushing, and coffee drinking routine, I walk into the Room, a room in my house where I have my Saints, Icons, and various other things, and Work. On some mornings, depending on the day, I do specific things. Some time ago I was in there,Continue reading “Sensuous Bodies”
