Weekly Round-Up: It’s a New Year!

Holy moly moo, it has been the longest short work week ever, am I right? Here’s a round-up of links and things I’m digging on, with a new year’s slant to it!

Gala Darling just released a new yearly tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique) program called Magnetismo (that’s Italian for the word “magnetism”). When I saw the announcement, I zipped over to the site, and lo and behold, here I was extolling the virtues of this new program in a testimonial! No worries though: I’ve used Gala’s tapping routines before in her other program Illuminated that I did back in July, along with her original program on “power tapping” Tap That. I’ve severely cut down on my sugar intake, and have switched from drinking soda to seltzer or water. I’m also enrolled in her Radical Radiance book, which includes plenty of tapping routines in it… so while I won’t be picking up Magnetismo, the endorsement I provide about the power of learning tapping with Gala is absolutely 100% approved! (I’ve included it below.)

I’ve only been using the Orisha Tarot for the past 4 days, and man oh man, it has been kicking my butt in all the right ways. I’ll be reviewing it here at the end of the month, but if you just can’t wait to pick up a copy, you can see for yourself.

🔮🃏Card of the Day for 1/3/19: 6 of Swords [The Orisha Tarot]: In the most simple terms, this card is depicting a simple tool that can bring deep insight. Don’t be fooled by something that seems to be simple, and don’t poo-poo or belittle something for its simplicity… in fact, today is a day where you should pare things down to their very essence to find the answers you seek. But don’t ask if you don’t want to know.⠀ ⠀ 🙌🏻 💞 Like the card of the day?

2 Samhains and a Survey

This year was the year of 2 Samhains for me: my coven celebrated a small private gathering, and then the next weekend I traveled to NYC and helped facilitate our sister coven’s public celebration in Midtown Manhattan.

Only in retrospect am I realizing that this was a lot for me. Maybe too much, with this being the first Samhain since my father passed away unexpectedly last year.

I was expecting to not hear from him. That’s the reason why I took on two Samhains: there was no way he’d make his presence known, besides the song that has been following me and my sister around in the months since his passing… the only communication from the other side from him that we have both experienced, that we can agree on.

I was wrong. I heard from him. I heard from him A LOT. Things that I hadn’t thought about in years came flooding back, memories of Toblerone and backgammon and happier times, and beating him at chess and knowing I had truly beaten him on my own merits (he would never let me win; never intentionally throw a match).

Samhain can be hard if you’ve lost someone. To many people, Halloween is a fun holiday of candy and costumes and harmless scares. To the grieving… it’s something different. It’s real, as Megan Devine of Refuge in Grief writes. And to the witch that is grieving AND knows the veil between the living and the dead is pretty darn thin… it can be something different and overwhelming on a whole other level.

If you’re a tarot reader at this time of year, you’ll get those questions about deceased relatives, as many people assume that if you can read tarot you can also talk to the dead. Sometimes that’s true. Sometimes it’s not.

It can be hard getting messages for others but not hearing messages for yourself, the little comfort you can give in being the messenger not available when it comes to your own losses.

Yes. Two Samhains was one Samhain too much. Hindsight is always 20/20.Continue Reading
