I’ve been in my head again as of late, as an intellectual writer-type is wont to do. Per my birthright as an Anxious Queen™, that intellectualizing has degenerated into worrying about a veritable medley of concerns, both within and beyond my control. High on the worry list is my truest and deepest-rooted fear, my old […]

Tarot Practice and Mental Health: Tarot Tuesday
It’s been a while since I did something other than a reading for #tarottuesday (ahem, since my first-ever tarot blog post). But I’ve had a tarot-related thought poking at my mind over the past few days that’s been begging to be put to paper1. For me, there’s a clear link between the state of my […]
A Summer Solstice Reading: Tarot Tuesday
Happy Summer Solstice, everyone! Today marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, bringing with it more hours of warmth and sunshine and more time to enjoy the outdoors, and we’re celebrating with a summer solstice tarot reading.

Cannabis Mindfulness and a Breathwork Ritual: Tarot Tuesday
Happy #tarottuesday, fam! We’re keeping it light and breezy today with a two-card cannabis mindfulness spread inspired by the saying Inhale, Exhale. This is a common adage for conscious breathwork which also holds true in the stoner community, referring to the act of smoking or vaping. Some folks (myself included) like to introduce a reflective […]
In The Sunshine: Tarot Tuesday (Video Reading)
It’s Tarot Tuesday and I don’t know about you, but I am absolutely loving the sunshine right now. Here in Toronto the past week has been all sunny blue skies and chirping birds, signaling that summer is almost here. With longer days and ample sunshine, I’ve found myself drawn to the outdoors. After a cold […]

A Mind-Body-Spirit Tarot Reading: Tarot Tuesday
Today I’m sharing a mind-body-spirit tarot reading using my Tarot of the Divine deck by @yoshiyoshitani 💜 I may not have mastered TikTok yet (like why my voiceover disappeared upon posting 🤷♀️), but at least I had fun making it. And hey, that’s what captions are for! We’ve got a hefty three-card baddie chock full […]
Approaching Discomfort: A Tarot Spread
I’m sure I speak for many of us when I say that discomfort is a familiar and unwanted sensation that kicks my avoidance tendencies into high gear. Once my body registers that prickly sensation of unease, I’ll find myself unconsciously reaching for [insert distraction here] to help dull the angst and bring me back to […]
Do Tarot With Me! An Aries New Moon Reading
With all of its symbolism and archetypes, tarot gives us an invitation to look within and find meaning in our experiences and behaviours. Tarot imagery layers on top of personal experience and subjective interpretation to produce something that’s somehow deeply unique to its reader and also thematically generalizable. I believe that even when a reading […]
Tarot: A Tool for Introspection and Growth
The year is 2017. I’m celebrating my birthday in my small hometown, back for the weekend after recently having moved to the “big city” in pursuit of my dreams. The event receives the regular birthday fanfare – friends, family, cake, gifts. I open a parcel from my two closest friends, gifted uncharacteristically by them both, […]
