Welcome, Moonbeams! Glad you could join us for this week’s Tarot & Tea. As the weather chills and the year enters into its dark night, a skeletal figure emerges from the shadows. The Death card, one might say, is not the most welcome of messengers in a Tarot reading. However, it is truly one of the most powerful and profound cards we can receive. Death signifies a transformation that can no longer be avoided. This marks the turning of a page in our lives; one chapter is ending so that another can begin. Fear of this change will do nothing...

Greetings, sweet moonbeams and welcome back to Flower Essence Friday.

The card depicts a loving couple with their two young children,...

Assert yourself with absolute confidence. This card teaches us that it...

Hello, bright and shining Moonbeams! We’re glad to have you back for more Tarot & Tea. This week’s card is The High Priestess and the message is all about feminine spirituality. As we delve the depths of our own subconscious, we find the wisdom of the Divine Feminine waiting to be unleashed. The High Priestess teaches receptivity to our own inner voice. Our intuition is an invaluable resource as we move through our lives and sometimes the best way to hear that voice is to stop moving for a moment and really take the time to just tune into the...
