Five planets in the astrological 11th house probably explains the increasingly “collective” focus that my work seems to be developing – the collective themes that seem to be seeking expression through the content I write.

Spiritual Awakening & Overcoming the Judgement Trap
Stages of Spiritual Awakening Earlier stages of spiritual awakening tend to coincide with what I call the “stance of opposition”, i.e., the desire to define oneself in opposition to prevailing norms and beliefs.

Shadow Work: Healing on Behalf of the Collective
The Moon archetype in the Tarot helps us to understand our individual and collective relationship with the Shadow: the Moon cues us into the location of our shadow material – where we can find it, and how it makes itself known.

I met someone who asked how “specific” I was as a reader, and whether I would be able to identify whether someone had “cancer.” I proceeded to explain to him that identifying details such as “cancer” or “leukaemia”…
Revisiting the relationship between Tarot and “the future”
Last week I attended an event and met someone who said to me that she was reticent about tarot readings because of an experience she had: she had a reading, and nothing the reader predicted “came true.” Because of her experience she was not only disappointed, but skeptical about the value a Tarot reading could…
How To Be Intuitive
Stop trying so hard to be intuitive. There, I said it. Intuitiveness is never a forced thing. I know these days there are lots of good courses and programmes designed to help people access their intuition, and be more intuitive. I’m not discounting their value. But I also know that intuitiveness is a lot like…
