I’ve got some exciting news that I want to share with you today. I’m so happy it’s ridiculous! But first, a little background…
Back in the 1990’s I created a huge shift in my life by taking a new spiritual path, one that continues to meander and wind through amazing territory. Part of this path included satiating my curiosity about tarot cards. I knew very little about them, but always thought they seemed beautiful and mystical and full of magic. So, I bought my first deck, and enrolled in a class that was sponsored by an online bookseller.

The cards seemed to speak to me very clearly, so, naturally more decks and more books were purchased. I was hooked. (To be clear, I’ve always been hooked on books, but now I was hooked on tarot as well!) I kept learning and I began a solid reading practice in 2001.

One author that became my absolute favorite is Rachel Pollack. I believe I have every book she has written on the tarot, and to this day hers are the books I continually turn to when I’m ready to learn more. I remember devouring her book Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom during a summer road trip in 2003, and it’s still one of my favorites and considered a tarot classic.

Early in 2016, I came across Camelia Elias, a woman who claimed to teach her card reading students to “read like the devil!” I had just begun studying the Lenormand oracle and I knew I had to reach out and become her student. From day 1 of learning from her I have not been disappointed! She is an amazing teacher and mentor.

I’ve read many books on tarot and cartomancy, and I continue to learn new systems and connect with new teachers and friends along the way. Still, Rachel’s books affected my life in a deep way, and having Camelia as a teacher continues to be a joy in my life.

So… I’m thrilled to be one of 37 authors of this brand new book – including Rachel Pollack and Camelia Elias. (omg) My essay AND one of my illustrations is included! (My mind is blown and I can’t stop smiling!)

The book is 21+1: The Fortune-Teller’s Rules, and although it contains “rules” for card readers, it really reads like a book of rules for life. In fact, upon release the book instantly became a #1 best seller in the category of “Zen Philosophy”. Which makes total sense to me, since “how you do anything, is how you do everything”, right? So if you have even a tiny interest in the cards (or in Zen philosophy!) I hope you’ll grab a copy!

AND…to celebrate the book release I’ve put together a special tarot offering for you. It’s a very sweet 5-card spread called “Juno’s Peacock” (in honor of my book contribution) that I created to bring you clarity in five different areas of your life.
