VGimlet Posted June 25, 2021 Author Posted June 25, 2021 Over to the Cosmic Slumber this week. I did like the White Numan, pretty, but it left me asking myself about cultural appropriation yet again.
vulprix Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 I’ll be using the Vanessa Tarot this week! Happy July, everyone.
Page of Ghosts Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 I'm joining in with the Bohemian Gothic, VG. Maybe this will be the week I start working on my physical journal for it 😁
Bodhiseed Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 VG, I'm interested in what you think about the Cosmic Slumber Tarot. I'm in this week with the Tarot de St. Croix paired with the Archetype Cards.
Amberjune Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 I'm in with the Eternal Tarot and the Divine Doors Oracle. Wishing everyone a great week. It's been very thunderstorm-y here!
Madame Squee Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 Thank you for the thread @VGimlet I'm in with the Buckland Romani Tarot and Paris Debono Gypsy Tattoo Card Deck.
Bodhiseed Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 This week I'll be using the Tarot de St. Croix, created and self-published by Lisa de St. Croix. Along with it, I'll be drawing from the Archetype Cards, created by Caroline Myss and published by Hay House. Today's cards are the Four of Pentacles and Pioneer: When I’m really caught up — in a thought, emotion, or situation — I like to remind myself to look up. However the sky has chosen to appear, looking up always offers a reminder that there’s more to this world than me and my own problems. ——Lilly Greenblatt What happens when we watch the morning news, read a few social media posts, or get a disturbing notice in the mail? In my case, my brain sends out stress hormones and my emotions jump in to hunker down for battle. My world shrinks down to 'me' as soon as I've gotten hooked by the mights and maybes. Yet there are many more possibilities than just the negative ones I'm currently holding; what I'm focusing on is the clouds, not the infinite expanse of sky behind them. The Pioneer archetype suggests I embrace a new way of thinking and acting, becoming proactive rather than reactive. As Pema Chodron suggests, "...rather than being disheartened by the ambiguity, the uncertainty of life, what if we accepted it and relaxed into it? What if we said, Yes, this is the way it is; this is what it means to be human..." When we resist change, it’s called suffering. But when we can let go and not struggle against it, that’s called enlightenment. ——Pema Chodron
Mi-Shell Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Oh, Hi @Page of Ghosts! ♥ According to @VGimletI do have you as a Tarot deck this week! Just a question: I can not find you anywhere among my decks - or around the house... Is that, because you are a Ghost? Edited June 27, 2021 by Mi-Shell
VGimlet Posted June 27, 2021 Author Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Hahaha - the heat here must be frying my brain....wait it can't be that, we have AC. (I knew there was a silver lining when the furnace died last year on the coldest week of last year...with a lot of snow on the ground...) Oops! It's been fixed. Copy and paste is not always my friend, LOL. Although that might be a fun tarot... And welcome back Page of Ghosts, by the way. 👻 Edited June 27, 2021 by VGimlet
Page of Ghosts Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 Thank you VG! Maybe one of the planets are being weird again? Or it's a sign that I need to get back to that little tarot painting project I've not tended to in ages. I hope I didn't cause too much trouble haunting you @Mi-Shell 😅
VGimlet Posted July 2, 2021 Author Posted July 2, 2021 Bodhiseed said <VG, I'm interested in what you think about the Cosmic Slumber Tarot.> I liked it, and after I started using it, I realized I had read graphic novels by the artist that I liked, before I realized there was a tarot deck out, which was a happy coincidence.

Oh, that makes it even more interesting (translated: enticing)! 😄
