Mr. Ebeneezer Scrooge
Every year a new version of Charles Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol” comes out in a movie or TV show, and I love the story, so I enjoy them all, but last night my favorite version was on TMC. It’s a musical version with Albert Finney. For years before the advent of cable TV, I had the song “Thank you very much, thank you very much. That’s the nicest thing that anyone’s ever done for me…” playing randomly through my thoughts when something kind was done and I wasn’t sure of it’s origin. Well,...
Read More“I Don’t Think I Can Be Hypnotized.”
We live our life in a trance state. To my way of thinking, becoming hypnotized is in some ways more like finally waking up.

Where are you now?” Anne described a house in the woods. There was a tree in the front yard with a tire swing. She took me into the house, but everyone was out in the back yard....
Read MoreOracle and Tarot Cards
I thought oracle and tarot cards were all pretty much the same thing with just different pictures on them until I began working with them. Tarot cards are all the same in that there are 78 of them (usually) and 22 of them are Major Arcana cards (usually) and the rest Minor Arcana cards. There are traditional meanings to each card, but as more and more inspired decks go on the market the meanings have expanded and become much more fluid. This is what ultimately lends itself to using our intuition to read the...
