Today's Tarot card is:
Ten of Pentacles. "Security in family and financial life. Happiness in the home and at work. Prosperity. Inheritance. Ancestry." I can live with that!
Sheesh - who knew that the Death card I drew yesterday would turn out to be more appropriate for the new site design than for me?? There are things I like about it, and things I don't....

Glad you liked the set

Hi love! Being the bodaciously knowledgable woman that you are, I figure if anyone would know you would, so:
Do you know anything about the intrerpretation of the modern playing card deck in a tarot sense? Someone told me that I am the King of Hearts, which I know corresponds to the King of Cups, but I was wondering about the rest of the symbolism. It's considered the "Suicide King" and I was wondering why. Any ideas?
Your list of women you admire is similar to the one I would make. You admier Luisah Teish! Do you know her? I've read Jambalaya, and I admire her greatly. But my list always starts with Mae West and Harriet Tubman. Has since I was 10 or so.
Hope you're doing well!
PS: You inspire me. Maybe I'll pull a card tomorrow. I haven't done that in a while. Been too scared or something.

OK, here we go. This week's Tarot deck is Tarot of the Old Path. And the card for today is:
Six of Pentacles. "A generous nature combined with good business sense. Material gain. Philanthropy. Sincerity." Sure could use some of that!
Yesterday we had breakfast at Waddle's (still, as far as we know, slated to become a Krispy Kreme next year
), then hit the...

Yep! I love how in that article, the author just SAYS things without any evidence, like, "Women secretly aren't excited by these men." She says no one "screams, weeps, loses control" etc curing oral sex... Maybe she's just having bad oral sex??
Anyway, the whole article seems based on the fact that men half her age no longer give her a moistie, so she decides that everything is therefore fucked.

Totally wasted day. Byron had to work, and I'm still kinda sick and out of it, so got some homework done and spent the rest of the day sitting in front of this thing wasting time. I messed around on my LiveJournal, if you'd like to take a look.

sux about your stereo. ours got stolen when my kids were really little. The fuckers broke the glass all over both babies carseats. thats the part that saddened me the most. the fact that we had just purchased that CD player sucked too- but the breaking the glass all over the babies car seats still makes me teary -eyed to this day. Two huge things of CDs were right under the passenger seat- neither was taken.
The last house I lived at near Portland, I always left my doors unlocked with my purse inside even.- Sean said I was asking for trouble.- But no-one ever bothered it.
I wouldnt do that in the City.- I always locked my house door at night though.
I'll lock my house-door ALWAYS no matter where I live. Unlike when I was living in the mountains as a child.
Love and Light, Elle
Edited to add some junk about the mountains n such. n fix a spelling error

..and sorry to hear ur still sick.....i hope u feel better..I haven't written for a while because I've been busy with school, and also I've been kinda sick; been coughing a lot, scratchy throat, etc. Not a full-blown cold, and it's not gonna be, either. I'll start the Tarot thing again next week; I'm just not into it right now.

Aaaaaaaah Baudelaire!
Okay I just made friends with the Enter key. My journal's all respectable now.
If Eddie Izzard became the Doctor he could take along some of his dresses. I rather like the idea of a man in a frock waltzing about through time.

Tarot card for today:
Queen of Pentacles. "A dark woman of generous and perceptive spirit who is a devoted wife; magnificence, opulence, security."
Better late than never, I guess (it's after 1 pm). I don't think we're going to get much done today. Byron isn't feeling well, stressing about work and dealing with a headache. Not sure if we'll get to the rummage sale after...

aoife:
man...didn't want to jack that thread any longer. that sucks. I'd heard rumors he was a scumbag but didn't want to believe it.
what is with these men, they have the most beautiful women on earth and that's not enough for them??? I am still getting over the idea of leaving Nicole Kidman for Penelope Cruz.

And today's Tarot card is:
The World (reversed). "Cramped vision; fear of change; stagnation."
Could be warning me against those things, as last night I took a very big and slightly scary step for me. I attended the first meeting of a new group of women in Portland that will hopefully be the nucleus for a coven. I've been feeling the pull toward a more...

Whatever you do, PLEASE don't start playing with those juggling stick things and forming drum circles.

thirty:
I like that poem. And I hate poetry, so that must mean you have good taste.
freakpirate:
Thirty is so cool.
I would love to come to Portland. So very much. There seem to be so many cool people there. If money and time permit, I will certainly make the long drive.
School is going well. I'm really enjoying it. The people are great. It's just a lot of long hours. And they're getting longer now. But I think I'll be alright.
I have to get to bed really badly now though. Must get up in the morning. Hopefully I'll see you on AIM some time. I hardly have a free moment these days. But I'll try!

Thanks for the well wishes, I'm close to the 48 hour point and feeling better.
My lastest obsession is Morrigan tattoos.
