    The Practical Tarot – The Moon

And sometimes the things you think you can control end up spinning way out of control anyway. It’s not about removing stress because there will always […]

    The Surprising Truth About Inclusion in Tarot Decks

    One of the things I really wanted to do as I was creating this deck is to make it inclusive. Tarot decks are usually not inclusive. Some of the more modern or specialty decks have embraced inclusion, but many more traditional decks don’t default to male-oriented, heterosexual imagery and white skin. I wanted to do […]

    What’s up with February?

    This month’s three-card draw. Imagine that you wrote a mystery novel. Now, imagine that it was about a professional tarot reader who works with the police to solve crimes. And now envision how much licensing a deck would cost so you could use it to talk about stuff. So, what’s an enterprising person to do? […]

    Want to be a Guest on a Podcast? Here Are Some Dos and Don’ts

    My job as a host is two-fold. I want to give my audience a great, engaging, inspiring, and informative episode. And I want to highlight my guest and the great work they’re doing.

    Happy Anniversary To Me

    Forty-three years ago today, on February 27, 1974, my family arrived in the USA after a year-long process of immigration. We lived in Israel and Italy during while we waited for paperwork and visas and all the accompanying bits and pieces of immigration.
