“You’re like my yo-yo That glowed in the dark What made it special Made it dangerous So I bury it And forget But every time it rains You’re here in my head Like the sun coming out Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen I don’t know when But just saying it could even make it happen” Cloudbusting – Kate Bush

A Beginner’s Guide To A Road Trip

A Beginner’s Guide To A Road Trip

Thanks to the lockdown, it’s about to change as a road trip is a perfectly legal way to go on holiday. Plus, it’s made for a pandemic since you can jump in the car and drive anywhere based on the circumstances.

Flicking Through The Modern Witch Tarot Journal

Flicking Through The Modern Witch Tarot Journal

Given that I write a blog, you may well have guessed that I am quite keen on the idea of journaling. Until now, I’ve only used a very basic notepad to jot down any notes during tarot readings and though I like to keep a record of my readings, I never really had the media to do so.

Last week Liminal 11 very kindly sent me a copy of The Modern Witch Tarot Journal to review and to make use of during my readings and boy – what a difference it has made!
