A few months ago I wrote about goddess archetypes in two different blog posts. One post was The Dark Goddess Archetype and the other was Who is the Goddess? Many writers of fiction will tell you that sometimes the stories write themselves, regardless of the author’s plans. I think this can be said of many other types of writers, myself included.

The concept and the imagery of the north star keeps showing up in my life. And at this point, I can’t pretend it’s not a message.

For Aries, the suit of wands contains many cards that capture the drive and passion... Read more

Earlier this year I wrote about the numerological value for 2024, the number 8. That blog post focused on the Strength tarot card (number 8 in the Rider-Waite-Smith system) and how it can help us through this year.
