Hello and Happy Birthday to the King of Swords,

who as I discovered, through my experience can have a double faced personality.
On one hand we have a clean cut, charming gentleman in the Jane Austen Tarot's King of Swords as pictured below:



Diane Wilkes seriously mistakens in her choice of King of Swords for Mr Darcy, when in fact I found that Mr. Wikham fits the description more closely. King of swords is mostly a predator of younger women (who seem to fancy him for all the wrong reasons) which he seduces and then abandons without any remorse. If challenged with a response for his actions/ evil intentions he becomes paranoid and accuses his victim instead.

On the other hand, I found through my studies that the King of Swords depicted in the HP Lovecraft Tarot is much closer to reality (please see picture below):


What we see here is a King of Swords wearing a mask on his face- showing how theatrical this person can be. We also can notice that he holds a head of a person he has beheaded showing the cruel, inhumane, unfeeling side of him. The King of Swords here plays victim, when in fact he is the predator.
At its best this person takes order and discipline to extremes without asking himself the damage he causes. His also a weak nature, unable to take decisions which only confuses the other people about his true intentions.
There is one question left, can the King of Swords change? well Wickham did, for monetary reasons. Are there any other incetives that can make this King change? Can he show his victims that he does have any regrets? Is he capable of compassion?

Today is also Aleister Crowley's birthday (139th birthday), the greatest magician of all times, but also known as "the wickedest man in the world". 

After all what happened to me in the US- wronfully harssed, threatened, beaten by the Jews, now they found a Rothchild to "JUDGE" me. How is that possible?? What is wrong with these people, and how the US legal system allows JEWS to terrorize a woman and a child?
I feel like the Hanged Man hanging from one foot, in sacrifice for my beliefs. The Jews try to hang me hiding behind the "legal system" in the US. They continue to pursue my case with known neo-natzis like Rothchilds.
Please find below a video who will tell you who the Rothchilds are:

The Truth about the Rothchilds

Someone out there, should see what these people are doing and stop them!! Please HELP!!

They removed my original MSN link to Snowden article.

Yesterday my computer was hacked again, and that was upsetting. What works for me in such situations is music and a cup of Starbucks tea or coffee.

A-HA the famous group from the 80's-90's also had a very positive effect on me. I am and were always in love with the main singer of the group Morton Harket. DO NOT worry, I am not stalking him! :)

Their last CD is especially great, "The Foot of the Mountain"-  and I want to make a dedication to the Magician/ Dragonfly, a song called "Real Meaning", who should now know his "position".
I always think that rather than staying upset it is better to take action than just patiently wait things to get better. So why not pick up a magazine?
It was a pleasant surprise to see Rihanna on the cover of  British Glamour magazine for January 2014. She is a perfect Pisces so very inspiring for the Month of February. A paper edition is always better, don't you think?
If you get your hands on a copy of this magazine it is time to "switch your willpower" with the article you'll  find on page 2.15 in the Fast living section. And finally when I am upset there is nothing like a coffee break on a Wednesday or Saturday afternoon, now is it? It is the only time I have for myself.

... and by the way, this post has nothing to do with "feelings" ..only if you would not be so superficial! look deeper!

Here are books that I own and I consider important for the study of Tarot:


These are books by very diverse Tarot authors, each with a unique take on Tarot. Whenever I do tarot readings I go back to one of these books for reference.  I could discuss each of them in part, but then I will take the pleasure of reading them yourself, wouldn't I?
I believe that it is true that there is an afterlife connection between two people who loved each other, but did not find closure during their lives.

They say that we should think of the things we liked to do as children or think of  what we wanted to do when we grow up when we were children  to find our true calling. Well, as a child I always wanted to be a fashion designer or to have my own clothing store and work in fashion. What did you want to be?
Today I would like to have my own collection of tarot nail polish for OPI or other great manufacturer.
Can Tarot help us find our true life purpose? I think it can.

And for general information I do not consider myself Wiccan, and therefore I do not do any magick/ spells,etc or vodoo, for example :)
I am just a Wicca fan/ admirer so to speak- I agree with their beliefs and I find it a fascinating nature religion.

How to prepare a Tarot Project Business Plan- Lesson 4

The image below represents the 8 of coins card from my favorite tarot deck, the Jane Austen tarot deck by Lo Scarabeo and synthesizes the focus of today's lesson.


The card depicts Anne Elliot of Jane Austen's Persuasion novel multitasking: taking care of a child, keeping the books, entertaining, reading and directing Captain Wentworth after the tragic accident. Some of the questions one may ask are: what is she reading? is Captain Wentworth still sorry for loosing her in the past? Can he notice the difference in her from what she has been ?
Astrologically this card represents Virgo, an earth sign but is ruled my Mercury. Can you see the connection?

I am not going to prepare an actual business plan for you, but I will give you the guidelines to complete your own.

1. A business plan is a detailed document that sets out in both words and numbers a business start-up such as a tarot project.
2. The role of a business plan is to persuade backers to make a donation or a contribution.
3. A business plan is also a planning tool for verifying your progress throughout the project.
4. Main steps:

• 
  
• write down your tarot project/ business idea;    
• answer a lot of questions yourself related to your project such as: who is your competition? who are the people you will be approaching for finance? do a market research for your project; 
• prepare to show your competence/ that you own the skills necessary to succeed;
• produce a Cashflow forecast and prepare your selling targets that you need to meet to stay in business.

One habit that I have is to draw a  tarot card at the beginning of the day to get an insight on the day that comes. My tarot card for today is JUSTICE. I am using the Dark Grimoire Tarot Deck also known as the HP Lovecraft Tarot Deck from Lo Scarabeo as in the picture attached.



This tarot card illustrates that Justice will be done one way or another, either in this lifetime or the next, without me doing a thing. Looking at the card I feel confident that justice will run its course. For the example- the Magician- who is a  self-centered, two -faced person, professional liar, master manipulator and  not much of a "soul mate" after all will probably meet the karma of his actions.

I also notice that I received visitors from Israel and Venezuela!! What a synchronicity/ repete coincidence!            Welcome!

I was named "an angry and controlling person" but quite honestly I am a happy person and I do not wish to control anyone; I want to inspire people.
However, if somebody answers my post with negativity, even if they have nothing to answer related to the post, and they write just to do mischief, of course I am going to give them a "slap" on their hands. Please make the difference between an "angry" person who is unhappy with life in general, and someone who is just responding to bad behavior.

Michele Knight is a wonderful person, who I consider a genuine, professional psychic. Apparently she is out of ideas on how to make her site www.psychicknight.com, better for all of us.

Well, I think I have a lot of ideas for her site and I would love if she would materialize them. Yes, I am giving out my ideas for free, because she has the power and the money to bring them to life and in the end we can all benefit from them.
So without further due, here is my list:

1. a classy site will offer a more personalized service which is hard to do in the form it is now. The site should break down in a "colony" of smaller, more specific sites where is easier for people to connect and find each other by specific interest. 
2. the new site should offer what no other tarot site currently offers, the possibility for tarot enthusiasts  to create and print a custom made tarot deck themselves. The tarot deck can be customized from online scrapbook pages you provide on the site. It is one of my aspirations to produce my own deck, and I know that  many readers wish at one point or another to produce their own deck. At the end you can charge a reasonable fee for the deck printing and delivery. Also, have a community of people vote on their favorite custom-made deck and sell it in your store. 
3. be an open-minded, generous soul and do offer "mini-grants"  on tarot projects that inspire you. Have a page where members/ aspiring tarotists put in their tarot project ideas and through a combination of "community" voting and your own choice or a tarot panel 's choice select a winner or 5 winners (first prize 1.000 GBP, second prize 500GBP, etc.). Each participant to the grant contest should provide a business-plan (included in the participation form that the site will provide) and prove they have the knowledge and the ability to complete the project, if granted the funds.

Lets all help out Michele and put in your site ideas in the comments section of this blog.
We can all reflect on how to make our lives more beautiful and more meaningful by listening to Enya's Caribbean Blue.

Blessed be,
Love and Light

Lesson 3- Visualization in Tarot

Today I am going to talk about visualization in tarot according to Mary K. Greer's view combined with my own take on it.

Creative visualization = Active imagination - it is used before any work with Tarot, but also has other uses such as dream interpretation, psychoanalytic processes or the law of attraction (if we want something we need to visualize as it already have been accomplished in order to manifest). One thing I do is visualize my goals. I would like to tell you what my goals are but I would like to keep them private. Also visualization is used in order to get in touch with our Spirit Guides, but I will have a separate lesson on that. Yes, each of us has one, but very few of us have the actual ability to communicate with them. It takes deep concentration and a lot practice.
More easily is to communicate with Faeries, as they are wonderful cheerful spirits more eager to appear when are called for, especially when we found ourselves outside, in nature. One thing I found by personal experience is that Faeries will also complete wishes, they certainly did mine. Again, I will be talking more about them together with the Spirit Guides in a separate lesson.

For any creative visualization you need to start with relaxation and grounding exercises. Grounding is an exercise in psychic work with the purpose of clearing the channel of communication with the Tarot cards. For grounding you need to sit upright on a chair, spine straight, both feet on the ground, shoes off, hands on your legs and palms down.  Next step in grounding is to follow a breathing exercise: exhale visualizing you release all your worries through your feet, then inhale imagining breath in vital energy all the way through your body and out through the crown of your head. With every inhalation you must feel a sensation of well-being & health and you must feel generally energized.
Last, connect with a point of light above your head, and picture drawing rays of light down towards your heart. To center yourself take 3 slow deep breaths.

Another way to visualize that Mary K. Greer suggests is to pick a Major Arcana card from all the cards and place it in front of you and take a good look at the card. Then, with your eyes closed try to remember the details of the card you picked and also try to answer some specific questions such as:

1. 1. where there any messages/ instructions for you?
2. 2. what figures where on the card (animal, human, spirit)?
3. 3. did you hear, smell or sense anything while holding the card?

It is very important to record your impressions and feelings too.

At the end of each lesson I said I will present you one tarot reader I admire.
Today I will present you Kelly Ann Maddox. She is young but very smart, articulate, funny and knows so much about Tarot.
Here is a link to a video on her Tips on Visualization.

Hi everyone,

I am happy to announce that I have a new Tarot project that needs your support (money or just share it to spread the word). Here is the link for more information on that: just click here , but you can also find this link on the left side of the page.
The new site will include a lot of free information and it will not just be a biographic site where I plan to sell things like most of the professional tarot readers do.

I will be re-starting the Tarot class and I will be starting a Tarot Q&A at the end of each lesson. Just write your questions on the comments section of each lesson and I will be answering the questions there shortly.
Another thing that I will do periodically is I will present you tarot readers that I admire with links to their pages.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Namaste,
Biancat Tarot
