My scanner is broken. I can't post the cards I usually scan and do readings on, so for now, I decided to just write. I miss the writing....

I was invited to a Writers group meeting on Saturday. I am going. The speaker is a Psychic, and does not like the Ouija Board or the Tarot Cards. A friend of mine confided this to me, so I will restrain myself from plopping them out on the table in front of me, as I usually do. I guess she is a 'real' psychic. I immediately grabbed my soapbox, and as I have time and time again, came to the defense of the Tarot Cards. The Ouija Board, I have never had any interest in....so that didn't bother me. But the statement about the Cards....that does bother me. I think it must go back to a time I was taught they were evil. The devil's tools. Seemed he has many tools, just about anything that's fun seems to be his. The first deck I ever seen was the Mythic Tarot. And I just loved them. Artsy, detailed. And how cool, ask questions and the answer floats up from the layout, with details and all kinds of extra tidbits about the question. I was hooked. So, I battled. Were they evil or not? I am a studier....I got the books, looked up the history, listened to both sides. Packed them under the bed....what was the answer. I prayed, and waited, and kept searching for an answer. Good or bad, Godly or Devilish...This is my answer. They are a tool. A box of beautiful artistic cards. The pictures invoke deep reactions, sometimes playful, sometimes sad and deep. Gestalt. They have only the power we give them. I think of it like this....think of a beautiful handcarved knife. Displayed in a woodblock in your kitchen. I could see that knife, and panic. Say, I don't like knives, I was cut by a knife one time, had to have stitches. Bled all over the place. Keep that away from me, it is evil. Or, I could say, how cool, a knife to cut my bread with. A knife to clean away the stuff from the veggies, so we can eat them, nicely cleaned. And my steak....it will be fantastic it cut my steak with. It's a tool. A knife. It is maybe a deadly weapon in the hands of a robber, or a healing tool in the hands of a surgeon. Or an artist's tool in the hands of a wood carver. But, until you hold it, or use it, it's just metal and wood. Same with the Tarot. The cards are an extension of whoever is reading with them. You see the symbols from your filter of your belief. I read every book that is written about them, study, soak up every word, love it. They are a way to use my imagination, and intuition to create a story, with the answers popping up. If you want to play, are open to other views than your own, play with them. Play is the key word. Whatever your reader tells you, will resonate with you. Yes or no. Above all, listen to your heart and follow what you feel to be true. Cards or not. Usually they verify what you already are thinking might be the answer. But, I don't know that. I just tell you what's in front of me....and let you decide.
Maybe I'm just lazy. I could, pull the answers out of thin air, really pay attention to the symbols all around me, and do a reading with no tools at all. But each artist has his tools.....and to paint the very best most beautiful picture for you, of your options and answers, I love to use my tools. I get way more information with my tools. I consider them gifts. And thank every Tarot artist and designer, so very much for creating such beautiful works of art. I love them. And I am very proud of the tools of my trade. I anxiously await each newly published deck that comes out. Preorder, love that. Keep them coming.

"Introduction to Tarot"
*
San Francisco School of Sidereal Astrology Technique of Delineation
(7-19.8)
**
If everyone understood it they wouldn’t call it the mystery.
The cardinal sin of mankind is mistaking the apparent for the real.
Attention Pattern Manipulates Mystic Law Creating Experience Attentions on God or Not
Reprogram Attention to Perpetual Meditation and Recreate the Miracle in Your Life.
*
The Intrinsic Values of the Planets Tarot Technique of Delineation
*
WARNING Reading this book has been known to cure Truth Blindness
**
This is an attempt to deliver a truthful rendition of the Intrinsic Value Technique, a scientific basis technique blended with The Art of Delineation that when properly practiced will consistently deliver accurate readings beyond "Psychic Guessing" or depending on how one feels at the moment etc. Anyone including children can consistently do accurate Tarot Card Readings (or any cast lot) given proper technique.
*
The Intrinsic Value of the Planets (the meaning/delineation) and therefore the Intrinsic Value of the Planets Technique of Delineation comes from observation of event. What actually happened; birth, death, marriage, divorce, accident, and inheritance, ET cetera.
*
The situation at the time of this writing is there is no place to learn proper technique. It is impossible to grasp the amount of Mystic-Babble published about the Mystery. Self styled, self-taught, half-baked authority. Read a book on Zen and think they are Buddha. Read some Tarot books call that research then write one.
*
Even worse the drivel spouted by most of the ancient mystical organizations. This creates and perpetuates the old vicious cycle of artists and philosophers waxing recycled elucidation of Intrinsic Values who know not they are trying to describe or delineate an Intrinsic Value much less which one.
*
The artist trying to paint a picture of the King of Swords, The philosophers attempting to describe the King of Swords, when what they are really trying to describe or portray the foundation is simply Libra.

It is ok to try to describe, picture or portray an Intrinsic Value or Deity however groove the Deity rather than the worship the picture, statue or other artists or writers conception. ”Gramalkin™©1970 V5-7.8”
*
Astronomy, Medicine, Religion, Tarot, I Ching among other things are all based on, derivatives of Astrology. The first page of the Bible: "God made the SUN to RULE by day, the MOON to RULE by night" credentials Astrology.
*
The picture, number, and so forth portrayed on a card are irrelevant to the meaning of the card. Often in fact the picture is very misleading as to the Intrinsic Value of the card. One may cut seventy-eight pieces of paper with no picture or number at all and just write the name of the card on them. The King of Fire, Five of Earth, Wheel of Fortune et cetera or even just the Astrological Symbology and Element of case, Aries\Fire (=King of Fire\Wands), Mercury in Taurus\Earth, Jupiter and the card means the same as it does when portrayed by the most elaborate glyphs and pictures, numbers or whatever.
***
Elaborate pictures whose symbology actually fits the Intrinsic Value at hand are just swell, however unnecessary. Often the portrayals are hodgepodges of cosmic drivel all gobblegooked together.
*
This again comes often from trying to picture something when one does not know what one is trying to portray. Various artists' portrayal of a given Intrinsic Value may be radically different, however the card still means the same.
*
The Intrinsic Value Technique baby, The Suns the Sun and the Moons the Moon every time and neither ones ever Venus.
*
One example reference states of the Red Twos ... Love is on the way. The Red Twos: of Earth (Diamonds\Pentacles) = Jupiter\Saturn (manic-depressive). Of Water (Hearts\Cups) = Venus\Moon, (love, hey they were half-right).
*
The number of the card is NOT its Intrinsic Value. In fact the numerical system used on the Major Arcana is a Major El Dummo. It should go Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars et cetera in the common order of the Planets, then the Constellations in common order, Aries, Taurus, Gemini et cetera.
*
Talk about your basically impossible to portray is the tonnage of Mystic Gibberish printed and expressed. One continually reads wherein someone is spewing forth on how this little glyph here, this number et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, means the card means this or that, Sure Pal. Or run on about Alchemy et cetera this-en-that however never actually show one a formula technique to turn Lead to Gold.
*
About the shop it's called Cosmic Jive. Once one understands the Intrinsic Value of the Planets Technique of Delineation spotting Cosmic Jive comes quickly, easily, and inevitably. They start telling you the Spirit is the Soul the Sun the Moon et cetera and the big bell in the sky says Bong>!>!>!
*
"Sorting Out Truth from Falsehood"
**
In what we laughingly call Modern Medicine one thing they have going for them is synthesis of research. If some guy in Outer Mongolia discovers something everybody hears about it right away.
*
The Mystery has little synthesis of research. Each little click, Cult, belief group has its own piece of the pie and there is little sharing and an ample amount of secrecy, jealousy, misinformation, and most groups and individuals will only believe and can only reach the Mythology they were reared to believe.
*
Tell the one the Myths of the other and you get the Glazedaze. Yet historically if one does not believe that a given belief is the only possible philosophy exactly as some one sold it to them, they will get about maiming and killing everyone available until your convinced. These examples have been repeated throughout the history of people. The point here is that the true disciple gleans Truth from whence it comes.
Yes, Yes, I've heard of opinion in fact the only thing I take seriously is - my opinion, pal. Opinion however is often the last refuge of the pseudo intelligence. When they can not tell Truth from Falsehood they say that everyone is entitled to an opinion.
*
Truth is not a matter of opinion. Unless ones opinion happens to be True" it is just more subconscious baggage. Around the shop we call it "Truth". Truth is that which changes not. That which stays the same for all, forever, on all levels of being this side of vibration. That which appears to be changes constantly. It's a nice day, a fact or opinion. The Mystic Laws of Cause and Effect and Polarity a Truth regardless of opinion or awareness.
*
Example: With the misinformation spread by the "Churchianity Syndrome Technique" (Deity elsewhere) they would be against one speaking with a Seer / Fortuneteller. The Christians are such an easy example due to western civilization exposure to thousands of years of proof of error and fraud of commission and omission in their doctrine. If one depends on organization or doctrine to supply ones Spiritual Evolution one is in trouble. Once one transcends worship of organization or doctrine dependency psychosis and accepts the responsibility of "Spiritual Evolution Self-Realization Truth Seeker Disciple" it is a whole new cosmos out there. Gramalkin™©1970v5-7.8
*
In the Christian version of the Churchianity Syndrome their Mythology is totally and completely true......as convenient. They love to tell things like it says in the Bible not to get readings. Ah, then you take an eye for an eye? Err, da, uhh, would you settle for an "It also says". True by convenience. We won't count the first page of the Bible "this time".
*
The True by Convenience Technique is commonplace through out the entire history of man. Considering the track record of the bilge spewed forth by the Churchianity Christian politico machine, (“The reason Angels can not stop bullets is bullets are propelled by Demons???”) it is clear why they do not want followers speaking with Seers. The exposure of Truth Blindness posing as Blind Faith. However most of the readings the Author has been exposed to, politics and religion too, include massive amounts of misinformation. One needn't experience it out to learn. One needn't to know bad to have good et cetera.
*
In resolution the individual Case At Hand is True or False; either can come from anywhere; and each individual, moment to moment, is at will, at one with, co-creators with God or not.
*
Periodically the Godhead physically manifests in a human body and therefore a Spiritual\Religious scenario arises. Upon the death of the Godhead the world is left with yet another "Politico Machine" posing as religion. Once the Religion Politico Machine has been found false once much less multitudes of times whose call is it to separate Truth from Falsehood? Ones conscience. Good Luck.
*
On my desk one will generally find a hand full of Rider Waite Mini and Albino Tarot Card Decks and a couple decks of Crowley Minis. In my pocket a Rider\Waite Mini. The Minis are used because of convenience. The cards are small so a large Layout and or several Layouts may be done on a small table, and both the Crowley and Waite decks have beautiful pictures throughout. The Waite Mini Deck is proportioned like Tarot Cards, the Waite Albino Deck like Playing Cards.
*
One would say; first toss a General Reading Layout with a Crowley. Then do a Past\Present\Future\ Layout to the left with a Waite Mini. Add a Yes\No Layout"to the right with a Waite Mini and to the right of that another Yes\No Layout with a Waite Albino deck. This results in four Layouts on the table with each layout in a different deck of cards than the ones next to it, so the decks do not accidentally get mixed together.
*
Take a few deep breaths, as the Tarot Cards must be shuffled. As Above So Below.
*
Astrology, Tarot, any of these techniques one is dealing with a set of SYMBOLOGY for the PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS one is dealing with. These conditions show how we relate to things and therefore how things happen to or for us, Mystic Laws of Cause and Effect, et cetera.
*
Tarot Cards (all cast lots) show the future for the way things stand now unless something is done to effectively change the case at hand, which is what we are about.
*
Usually I begin with an Octoscope General Reading of the immediate future (3 Months) and work from there.
*
To be a great Reader one must know something of the Mystery of Life. When a void is created (E.G. It does NOT LOVE you.) The void must be filled with something or nature fills the void and no telling what with.

“Learning Tarot Modus Operandi"
**
The Cardinal Sin of Mankind is Mistaking the Apparent for Real
*
Attention Pattern Manipulates Mystic Law Creating Experience Attentions on God or Not
*
The allopathic psychiatrist must ask the patient how they feel about it, the great reader tells them.
*
Each numbered article edition has new material added to it. The highest number is the newest edition this one is v5-7.2oo8.
**
To be an efficient Tarot Card Reader one MUST have sight recognition at least of the astrological cross-reference to the cards and have a Second Nature Realization of the Intrinsic Values of the Planets. This technique lets one get beyond "Psychic Guessing" and depending on how one feels at the moment etc. Properly done this is actually quite easy as there are only ten planets and seventy-eight cards.
*
When they can not tell true from false they claim opinion. Truth is neither a matter of opinion, faith, awareness or agreement. Truth is that which changes not, that which remains the same for all, in every case, on all levels of being this side of vibration.
*
Astrology, Tarot, any of these techniques one is dealing with a set of SYMBOLOGY for the PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS one is dealing with. These conditions show how we relate to things and therefore how things happen to or for us, Mystic Laws of Cause and Effect, et cetera. Tarot Cards (all cast lots) show the future for the way things stand now unless something is done to effectively change the case at hand, which is what we are about.
**
“The Intrinsic Value of the Planets”
*
For practical purposes the intrinsic values of the planets equals the intrinsic value of their corresponding constellation. Mars = Aries or read Aries as Mars et cetera. Yes there are the Solar Crosses - Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable the Fire, Earth, Air, Water elements and such however Venus is Venus and Jupiter is Jupiter every time.
*
The way to do the planets is to learn one planet a week or one planet a day if you are a quick study. The idea is to take them one at a time until each planetary intrinsic value is second nature to you without having to think about it rather than trying to learn them all at once.
**
“The Tarot Cards”
*
The easy way to learn the delineation of the Tarot Cards is to first learn the astrological cross reference to the Major Arcana cards then the Court Cards and finally each individual suit of the Minor Arcana cards. Waite Rider Mini and Albino and Agmuller Crowley Mini Tarot Card Decks are recommended. The words on the Crowley cards are mostly wrong. It’s intrinsic values that count.
*
“The Major Arcana”
*
The Major Arcana of the Tarot is simply symbology for the planets and zodiacal constellations. Card numbers 0-21. Begin by arranging the Major Arcana cards in common order. Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces.
*
With the Major Arcana arranged by planet and sign order it is much easier to get into the flow than when arrangement is scrambled via card number. “Gramalkin™©1970”
***
The way to learn the card cross-reference of the cards to the planets is to use the flash card technique they use to teach children the alphabet. It is ever so easier to do readings when the cross-reference is second nature, unnecessary to check the cross-reference for every card in a multiple deck reading. One may just draw the cross-references in the border of the cards however by far the preferred technique is sight recognition. Just keep the list in front of one and go through the stacks of cards in order until by rote one instantly recognizes at least the planetary symbology for each card. E.g. The Sun Card = The Sun.
*
In fact one may do a pretty decent reading using just the Major Arcana cards as long as the layout is kept small, e.g. the Octoscope Layout which is nine cards yet pretty much covers it is pushing the limit. The minimum layout is five cards.
*
“The Court Cards”
*
The Court Cards are easily remembered by their Solar Crosses. The Kings are the Cardinal Cross. The Queens the Fixed Cross and the Pages the Mutable Cross. The Aces and Knights the element in pure form, Fire, Earth, Air, Water. The Aces are often the element Not in Motion. The Knights the Element in Motion also indicative of other peoples acting out ones problems via element, station, situation.
*
“The Minor Arcana”
*
Stack them up in order in four piles with the Court Cards by suit - fire, earth, air, and water. A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Page, Knight, Queen, King. Take each suit one at a time and just flash card through them. The pattern of the Minor Arcana will soon appear.
**
“The Ritual”
*
In dealing with the actual mechanics of manipulating the cards first start with Grace from the Master and Angels. The most important part of the ritual. However, due to free will Angels generally refrain from forcing their help on one. One must ask for help to get it. The “Angels of the Light” are the ones in charge of getting the cards (the Cast Lot) in the correct Station (the Reader must delineate). For example: Master may I / we please ask you for your grace thank you. Please send Angels to watch over, guide, comfort, guard, protect, help us realize the truth, stay with us until it is taken care of, thank you amen Om.
*
Without this step one is just wasting ones time, as there is no way to know (even given proper mechanics) the cards are in the correct Station. This Grace process also clears any residual Astral Garbage or leftovers from previous readings hanging about.
*
To begin the reading first realize exactly what is the query and time period. Decide which layout or layouts are best suited to solving the type of problem, situation, query, or will provide the information one needs. Shuffle seven times. Always cut cards left-handed. Cut into three piles; restack to one pile, as you will then deal. When using the Reversed Card Technique (reversed cards equal lower self or negative manifestation) shuffle seven times, cut into three even piles, reverse the center pile, restack into one pile and shuffle seven more times, cut into three stacks, restack into one pile then deal. One may rub the palms of the hands together a bit then pass the palm of the left hand over the three stacks, feel the high, medium and low energy pile and restack to one pile high to low then deal.
*
On my desk one will generally find a hand full of “Rider\Waite” Mini and Albino Tarot Card Decks and a couple decks of Agmuller “Crowley” Minis. In my pocket a “Rider\Waite Mini”. The “Minis” are used because of convenience. The cards are small so a large “Layout” and or several “Layouts” may be done on a small table, and both the Crowley and Waite decks have beautiful pictures throughout. The Waite Mini Deck is proportioned like Tarot Cards, The Waite Albino Deck like Playing Cards.
*
One would say; first toss an “Octoscope General Reading Layout” with a Crowley. Then do a “Past\Present\Future\ Layout” to the left with a Waite Mini. Add a “Yes\No Layout” to the right with a Waite Mini and to the right of that another “Yes\No Layout” with a Waite Albino deck. This results in four Layouts on the table with each layout in a different deck of cards than the ones next to it so the decks do not accidentally get mixed together.
*
Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly.

Good luck, love, thank you,

“Angels”
"How to Communicate With Them"
**
The Angels are most interesting beings, only too real they do exist, and are certainly worth the investigation of the disciple. The author has had many very real major experiences in dealing with the angelic experience. They have definitely saved my life on a good many occasions. More than enough Angelic contact to realize how real and cosmic they are. It is said the Angels of Light are beings who have never fallen (gotten caught in their lower self, (what most people know as reality)). The Angels will indeed help human beings if we will call for their aid when we need it. In fact they love to help for it is through service that they get to evolve. The Angels have proper motive and purpose of course rather than just helping one for their own self-gain. There are some basic techniques for dealing with the Angels herewith elucidated.
“Ground Rules For Calling Angels”
1. One has to ask for help to get it. We all have free will you know. Do to free will the Angels seldom go about forcing their help on people. "Gramalkin™©1970-v8-23.7"
*
2. Refrain from telling the Angels their business. Rather than request the Angels to specifically do this and that best policy is to just ask then to watch over, guide and comfort you et cetera; then leave it up to them.
*
3. The Angels like a lot of formality when there is time. In an emergency situation just a cry for help will do.
*
The Angelic ritual used by the author is a completion of teachings from the Godheads and mentors of my acquaintance. This ritual is also often used as the “Grace Ritual” for doing a Tarot Reading. The idea is to do this ritual first thing in the morning, the last thing at night, every time one gets in the car, on the bike etc.
*
Through the Christ consciousness Master may I/we please ask you for your grace thank you. We are at one with the universal life force energy, it is now flowing through us and we feel it, it fills our every need. Divine will flowing through me in the name of the “Christ Self” will dissolve all those conditions that interfere with the normal flow of this individual; it has been said it is done so be it. Through the consciousness of the Christ please send Angels to watch over guide and comfort, guard, protect, restore, give grace and have mercy on my self, my personal reality and mundane current events. Please forgive human miscreation and misuse of divine energy substance and consciousness, put me in the right place at the right time for the right experience to expand my level of consciousness, distribute the colors as they should be through the bodies, awaken within anew the Christ Consciousness that it may grow in the coming years. Please help me to do it right, help me to fulfill my needs and stay until the situation is taken care of. Please get us all back together safe and sound. Through the Christ Consciousness thank you amen Om. Indecently when requesting the deity to forgive and restore one for some transgression rest assured best policy is to refrain from repeating the transgression. Also one may not plan to sin away their life then repent at the end and be saved.
*
4. Ask the Angels to please stay until the situation is taken care of.
5. One may send Angels to help other people. An ill friend. A loved one. Or even mundane current events.
6. Refrain from crying wolf. Only call the Angels when they are needed.
7. Always say thank you. The Angels do not need your thanks. However as they may return to one twenty times what one sends out. Best policy is to (with proper motive and purpose and purity of heart) thank them.

“The Art of Delineation”
First State Astrological Case Then Delineate
*
The Planet = Subject. Constellation/Station = Application.
E.g. Sun in Aries. Read Sun = What; Read Aries (Mars) = How; On Ascendant = You Are.
*
The “Intrinsic Values” act “Individually” and “Collectively”.
Take the “Intrinsic Value” (the meaning/delineation) of one planet. It exists independently, like it was the only one there. The “Intrinsic Value” of the other planet exists independently also.
*
Intermingle “Intrinsic Values” they also exist “Collectively”
E.g. Jupiter = “Happiness, Overindulgence”. Venus = “Love, Overindulgence”. Jupiter conjunct Venus = “Happiness, Love, Double the Overindulgence”.
*
To see how the “Intrinsic Values” will manifest.
Repeat the “Individually and Collectively Intermingling” process with their “Station” and “Situation”.
E.g. “Happiness, Love, Overindulgence” on “Station” “Nadir” = “Spouse” is.
On the “Midheaven” = “Career” is. “Count Gramalkin™©1970 v5-7.8"
In “Taurus” gives a nice Artistic Love foundation.
In the “Saturn Lunar Mansion” of “Taurus” = Happiness, Love, Artistic, add Stubborn, Frustrated and Denied, Patient and Practical heavier on the Overindulgence etc.
Square “Uranus” the “Intuition” aids, adds excitement, eTc.
*
Count “Score” on “+&-” to read “Higher/Lower Self”, “Yes/No” etc.
Sun & Moon are lights & illuminate whatever is there; Mercury expresses whatever is there; Jupiter Venus Uranus = + good; Mars Saturn Neptune Pluto = - bad.
*
To delineate in any given sphere Use the “Intrinsic Adjectives” common to that sphere.
E.g. “Venus” - Psychologically = Love & Peace. Mundanely = Food & Clothes. Medically = Kidney eTc!
“The Art of SYNTHESIS”
To “Synthesize” a horoscope chart first look at the Sun taken by it’s self, then Moon (Sign, Watch, House, Lunar Mansion), the Ascendant then Midheaven, then Angles (which solar cross/split cross etc.). The most angular planet and its situation, the next most angular situation. There are usually two or three basic "the next most Angular situations".
**
Manifesting
When there is an orange tail sticking around the corner and one grabs the tail rather than having a tail one actually has the entire Tiger. So it is with the “Intrinsic Values of the Planets”. When one identifies having hold of any part of an Intrinsic Value one actually has the entire planet (or Sign) by the tail. When one is happy one has Jupiter by the tail and therefore all of the Jupiter qualities good and bad. The idea is to consciously project the “higher self” or positive qualities of the Intrinsic Value of case rather than “lower self-essence dominated reacting” with the lower self-qualities. Read the Intrinsic Value of the planet in your notes and send out the + side. Also read the “Satsang”, “Self Realization” and “Daimoku” articles on CountGramalkin.Com and it will help you cope with all that reality nonsense.

Art and Artistry; The art world; Centers of fine art; Art Galleries; Babies and small children; Loves whatever it is aspected to. The planet of peace and love. Venus symbolizes the “Romantic heart” the love one feels and gives another. Venus is “in love” with any planet with which it is configured at birth, not excluding the malefics. The type of humanity which wins the affections of the native may be deduced by the constellation occupied by Venus at birth that is in the Natal birth chart. For example, if Venus is found in Aries, affection may be lavished on those who wield power. Venus in Sagittarius, affection for clergymen, doctors and the titled. Venus in Aquarius, the interest would be for those who expresses a liking for exotic or out-of-the-ordinary subjects. The Venus constellation often describes the fetish of the frustrated. When Venus is in the foreground or in elevation in the birth chart, the native is dominated by his love for others, often to the point that nothing else matters, so that love is the motive for one’s existence. Known as “venerable”, Venus may, in advanced years and in a position to do so, become noted for charity. In youth the native is a Casanova. Venus in a subordinate place in the birth chart will tend to delay or deny love and marriage for the native.

Shyness, diffidence, remoteness, austerity, and sardonic smile are characteristics of this planet. The secrete to dealing with Pluto is the ability to adjust to the changes moment to moment rather than letting them build up into crises and to refrain from bicker and argue.

Linda, I love your analogy about the tarot cards and the knife. How true!

Although I don't collect tons of decks as you do, I do read a lot of tarot books. I've been doing some fun readings for family lately. Really fun stuff. And the Tarot for Writers is the best book in my library. I've written lots of story ideas in a notebook from the card layouts.

Also, don't know if our psychic speaker is against Tarot Cards, I think maybe she just isn't "into" them. But who knows?

Glad you're back to blogging. I've missed reading your updates.
