Hi everyone,
I am back... with some news, for those following my blog I know you might wanted to hear my latest news. Did I go out for St Patricks day? Did I rent the Airbn for the night out in town? or Did I decide to stay in and be responsible? Did I break up with my younger friend?
Well read up, all the answers are right here.
I got sick, yeah, unfortunately I got otitis in my right ear, and yes I am staying in... Thanks goodness I have not book anything in advance and my indecision made me save some money I would have spend on accommodation I could not use.
As far as my friend I made a budget for the rest of the month from now until April/ salary day and I realized that I have made so many promises to so many people( my mom- to cement the alley around the house/ paint the fence& the shed / my son- gaming money and pocket money and my friend- rent) that if I am to keep my word there is NO discretionary funds left for me at all. This is what happens when you try to keep everybody happy. I am left out with no money for the month. So, yes I decided this is the LAST month I am going to help out my younger friend. After this month he will need to either get a job or leave the country.... Tough decision for both of us, since I am so emotionally involved with him, but I simply can no longer afford him.
This month for us, will be a month of prayer for each of us, him Ramadan and myself Easter. He is fasting, and asked me to join him, but I have my own religion, even though I do not practice it. I am thinking to at least fast now until Easter on Wendsdays and Fridays- when we are normaly not supposed to eat any meat, or dairy products.
On the 21 st we have a NEW Moon in Aries- it is the beginning of the astrological year and a great time to set our intentions for the year!
Ok everybody these were my news now and I will be back with tarot articles/ lessons!
Blessed be!
Happy St Patrick's Day!

Today I am going to write about journaling, and in particular tarot journaling. You can find below my tarot questions, the tarot questions I aks when I do readings for myself organized in Career, Friendship, Self-Discovery and Decision Making topics that interest me. You can choose your own set of topics that fits your needs.
Career:
My career questions focus on what better skills I can earn to get a better paying job and also a job that will bring me joy. Career questions around a job that will make me feel more secure and give me piece of mind.
Sample Career questions:
Thinking aobut my dream job- the thing I want to do most is web design with French skills.
Qs #1: I ask the cards how do I go about achieving it?
Qs #2: I also focus on the skills I want to learn ( including bullet journaling)- ask the cards if I 'll be successful at it.
Qs#3: I also think of my career goals, and I ask the cards what will take to achieve them?
For each of these questions I have a subset of 3 other questions:
- What cards did I draw?
- What was the message sent?
- How did that message made me feel?
Friendship
I am not currently involved in any romantic relationship, but I am involved in an "attached friendship" which occupies most of my free time. In my case this is both positive and negative energy. I know this friendship is NOT growing into something "more", but my heart and feelings are fully vested in this relationship.
Sample Friendship Question:
Focus on my friend and ask how this relationship is unfolding over the next 3 months?
Also, remember to add the subsection questions to every main topic question you ask.
Self- Discovery
Sample Questions
Q#1: Ask if currently I am on the right direction and ask if I should focus more on friendship, career, family or something else.
Q#2: I ask if I continue to follow on the same path where will this lead me to?
Decision - Making
I am really slow at making a decision, and once I reach one I keep changing my mind about it. I take into consideration all "+" and all "-" and every "what ifs" and every day deepending on my current mood I see the half glass "full" or "empty". I was suggested to try the calendar spread to get a general idea how the year will play out to help me work out when to act on a decision.
My big plan is to start a new blog in WordPress , web hosted with a main registrar company.
I 'm thinking about trying this as a hobby, but I am worried taht it will take too much of my time and I won't have enough time left to improve my skills.
Decision Questions
Qs #1: What will the outcome be if I want to take up blogging in WP as a hobby? Will it cost too much (both in money and time terms)?
Qs #2: Also another qustion I have is about leaving my job for a more qualified position after I retrain, what will the outcome will be?
These questions are just few samples on how I organized my readings, but using as an example you can develop your own questions. Just make sure to use the subsection questions after each main topic question.
Happy Journaling!

Hi everyone,
I knew I was NOT ready to start any new relationship because I was not able to give up on my 8 years + friendship. Afterall, I thought to meet again for this month at least. With Ramadan starting at the end of the month this relationship will probably die on its own, as we won't be able to go out anymore during the day, and I do not go out at night (living in bad neighborhood and all that).
It was just to hard to resist temptation to see him again today. He is like family to me, besides he is so young and handsome!
And I feel bad about talking about my past relationships, as most of them were not all that bad.... I guess my expectations were higher each and every time, but that is not to say that I did not have good times as well.
I am still undecided if to go out on Saint Patricks day or not. Part of me wants to go out and have fun, and the other side of me is telling me to be responsible and not waste money on entertainment. What scares me is that April follows, and is a month full of religious holidays: Ramadan & Easter and there will be no entertainment for me until May, or better said end of April.
I shall decide soon!
Happy March everyone!
