Deck interview – The Light Seer’s Tarot

Door |oktober 20th, 2019|Blog, Tarot|

The accompanying book is AMAZING! I did this deck interview with the long awaited Light Seer's Tarot a while ago, but never got 'round to typing it out. So here goes. https://chris-anne.com/product/bundle-muse-tarot-light-seers-deck-oracle-pre-order/ Look at the green edging!! Love it!! I have been lustig after this deck for quite some time and I also felt very drawn to the same date release deck of Chris Ann's Muse Tarot. I couldn't make up my mind which to buy, so I bought both....yikes. Now [...]

Full Moon, pain and loss

Door |oktober 12th, 2019|Astrology, Blog|

To get straight to the point, this week has been tough! No other way to put it. I am still a bit stressed about the new workplace, been having headaches because of the paint fumes and something else perhaps in the building, not sure I just feel bad (physically) when I am there, and fine when I am not at the office. I hope it is just the paint fumes, as they will be gone (I hope) in the next few [...]

Standing fierce with Freya

Door |oktober 12th, 2019|Blog|

Yesterday evening I visited the Temple of the Goddess in Amsterdam. Friday, an evening to gather with Freya. I will not write much about the ceremony, because this is not for me to share, it is public if you want to visit sometime (see the website for more information). I learned about new insights about Freya which the Priestess of the Temple received over the years working with her, such as how long back she may have been worshipped, where and [...]

Oracle of Black Enchantment – free Samhain reading gift

Door |oktober 6th, 2019|Blog, Tarot, witch|

Patrick Valenza is best known for his Deviant Moon tarot, but I prefer his his independent self-published decks such as Mildred Payne’s Oracle of Black Enchantment. The deck continues the story that he has conjured about the fictional young witch Mildred Payne. The story he provides is that this oracle was found in her coffin and was created in 1933 against the wishes of the Fenwood Coven. The illustrations are such a (Halloween) treat, inspired by English woodblock prints, particularly those [...]

Grimoire or Book of Shadows?

Door |september 14th, 2019|Blog, Book of Shadows, Spellwork, witch|

At the moment I am using a beautiful leather bound book to write down my craft work, journal, keep record of spells, etc. To have a beautiful Book of Shadows has always appealed to me and over the years I have had many ideas of what I want to do with my BoS, but who am I kidding! I don't have the time to make it all pretty and fill it with all kinds of general witchy information. And yes of [...]

13 September 2019 🌕 Oh it's been so long since I have been in love. I miss those butterflies, that rush you get when you are besotted with someone. I miss having a special person in my life.

But now time has passed and time has healed and I feel so much stronger and open and I feel [...]

Door |september 14th, 2019|Astrology, Blog, Tarot|

Happy Full Harvest Moon in Pisces. I hope you are having empowering day! This Full Harvest Moon is on the date of Friday the 13th (not everywhere, in The Netherlands where I live on Saturday morning) and only happens once every 20 years! I sure had very vivid and powerful dreams last night, some I still try to make sense of. I will meditate and journal more on them, wrote pages and pages this morning. Yesterday, Friday, the day of Venus, [...]
