Fantastic! And good on ya for standing your ground for judgmental unpleasantness - some people like to wear their discontentment and negativity like a cloud and try to shuffle it off on others. Bully for you on deflecting it!

Looking forward to my email tarot reading! :-D

yes! I'm going to work on it this evening, I was too tired yesterday after being at a party in our building *much* later than planned (I ended up DJing from like 4am until 5 or so, to give you some idea.) I didn't want to read when I wasn't feeling clearheaded and awake. ;-)

What an exciting beginning! I'm glad that the last two weren't too much trouble.

thank you! it kinda seems to come with the territory. fortunately for me, I have had a lot of practice at deflecing BS over the years. ;-)

I have a question: How do you feel about doing readings when Mercury is in retrograde? According to most astrologers that's a time when communication tends to break down and misunderstandings are common.

I recall being at a party once where they had a Tarot reader. I hesitated to get a reading because of Mercury in retrograde. I thought she might misunderstand what the cards are saying or I might misunderstand what she tells me the cards are saying. Then I went for it anyhow and sure enough we had a complete communication clusterfuck. I don't know much about Tarot but enough to watch her misread the cards to fit some personal opinion she had on the question I had asked.

What do you think?

well... I think it would be silly to avoid reading altogether during mercury rx - I mean, it happens several times a year and goes on for weeks and weeks! I would just take the standard advice of taking extra effort to be clear (and that also goes for formulating a clear question, which has a big effect on how clear the answer will be ( ... )

Oh god no, it wasn't you. You never read for me but I sure would love it if you would.

It was nobody we know. A lady whose name escapes me who read at a fancy Downtown fundraiser I attended. This was about 2 years ago.
