I did a reading for a woman yesterday who was wondering about the advisability of trying to reconnect with a former friend. The friendship failed under unhappy circumstances almost six months ago and they hadn't seen each other until a chance meeting at a local supermarket, a cordial but very brief encounter that opened no … Continue reading The Point of No Return

Joe and Jill: A “Moral Dilemma” Example Reading
All images © U.S. Games Systems, Inc, Stamford, CT and Lo Scarabeo, Torino, Italy This is a hypothetical reading addressing a common real-world scenario that I worked up to demonstrate my "Moral Dilemma" spread. The principals in this reading are entirely fictional. I used the Night Sun Tarot to populate the "Left-Hand Path" (or "dark" … Continue reading Joe and Jill: A “Moral Dilemma” Example Reading
A Simple Question-and-Answer Spread
Those of us who create a lot of spreads sometimes get so caught up in the game that we neglect the simple stuff. This spread is a substitute for the three-card and five-card line that puts a different spin on the reading: not so much "past/present/future" as countervailing influences that will push the answer one … Continue reading A Simple Question-and-Answer Spread
2004 Cold Case: Where Is Maura?
Update: There may be new evidence in this case suggesting she was kept in a basement near the crash scene. Here is a recent news article. https://www.wmur.com/article/maura-murray-family-woodsville-disappearance/26241858 Original Post: In 2004 a young Massachusetts woman crashed her car in New Hampshire and disappeared.

Update: 2018 Super Bowl Prediction
Well, there's the answer. My scoring model predicted a 9-point win for the Eagles and they won by 8 points, even though the individual scores were around two touchdowns higher than anticipated. Judgement delivered the verdict for the Eagles, tapping the Wheel of Fortune and Justice to "steamroller" the Patriots and elevate Philadelphia to a … Continue reading Update: 2018 Super Bowl Prediction
Trump’s Showdown
Donald Trump is walking a tightrope with the handling of his prospects for facing an interview by Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Does he take a bold, adversarial stance or a cautious, conciliatory one? I have a spread that deals with just such a scenario, one I call the "Hold 'Em or Fold 'Em Gambler's Option … Continue reading Trump’s Showdown
Where Is “A . . ?” A Missing Person Spread
UPDATE: The remains of Austin Colson were found in a wooded area of northern Vermont not long ago, and positive identification has now been made. He died of a gunshot wound to the head. http://www.wmur.com/article/human-remains-found-in-norwich-identified-as-austin-colson/21084837 My instincts were apparently sound in this case, although my reading wasn't too accurate as a whole. There may very … Continue reading Where Is “A . . ?” A Missing Person Spread
Rethinking the Monthly Lunar Look-ahead
Before I get into the subject of today's post, here is an interesting web-site that shows the eight cardinal and ordinal phases of the monthly lunation cycle as named by eminent astrologer Dane Rudhyar, in terms of the percentage of visibility, making it possible to pinpoint when a given sub-phase "perfects" during the month in … Continue reading Rethinking the Monthly Lunar Look-ahead
2018 Super Bowl Prediction
Let's try this again using the same spread. The National Football League championship game predictions were inaccurate as far as determining the winners and losers but not that bad concerning the mechanics of scoring. For the Super Bowl reading I decided to use the Tarot of the Sevenfold Mystery as the main deck and the … Continue reading 2018 Super Bowl Prediction
Update #2: NFL (NFC) Championship Game
In this case, it looks like the raw scores I came up with by adding up the card values were the most accurate: the projected 36-14 best-case win for the Philadelphia Eagles over the Minnesota Vikings was not far removed from the actual 38-7 final score. (The Eagles did in fact "run away with it" … Continue reading Update #2: NFL (NFC) Championship Game
