Today is beautiful outside...inside too as I've opened all the windows that will open and sweet spring breezes are meandering through the house. I should rake the leaves, paint an exposed spot on my car, clear clutter, dust, clean the litter boxes, start working on the NOWW magazine...Rob and I already took Rogue for a lovely walk up by the rail tracks, saw deer tracks in the mud and admired a fire engine red street car with many concertina links being tested by Bombardier. (the path by the tracks runs adjacent to Bombardier's yard. Sometimes at midnight I can see the street cars running up and down in the yard beyond the house across the road. Surprisingly an unbelievable comfort especially when my son Dane lived in Toronto as many of these cars are made for Toronto) We saw a red winged blackbird and heard them sing close by. The walk, I like to believe, nourished all our spirits. But back to the to-do list, there's lots to do today. Lots that should be done on a day off, an otherwise completely free day. BUT these cards arrived before we went out for a walk! I discovered them when a fellow blogger used them to do a prediction for May. I absolutely fell in love with them. Then I went online and looked at reviews and card reveals of them and I felt like they spoke right to my soul through the screen. Dad had given me an Amazon gift card and well, now the rest is history. As I write, they command my attention from my painty table beside me, in the gentlest, most persistent way. Usually with my new decks, I cleanse them through incense smoke and sleep with them under my pillow for a few nights. BUT these call to me now. I've been dancingly waiting for them. I asked my Moonshine group how they personalise the cards or embrace them. After a few exchanges, the woman who introduced them to me said that she believed I already had a good connection with them so cleanse them, shuffle well and plunge right in!
Permission! Last night my dear friend Fran in Tasmania marveled that I got so much writing and creativity done. I replied that she hadn't seen the state of my house and that's how. I 'lol'ed but there's a huge chunk of truth in that. So if you notice my car still has its exposed spot, the house is still dusty, the leaves still unraked, you'll know that I've given in to the temptation of this gorgeous tarot deck. After all, what are days off for but to play in?
