Tarot Innovations on the Psychic Cafe
Show date:
The topic of our July 21nd episode of Christiana's Psychic Cafe was "Tarot Innovations." I interviewed four tarotists who are doing innovative things with tarot.
Karen Bentley is combining tarot with theatrical improv for a program she calls "Tarot on your Feet."
Shaunna Peterson is a tarot reader and sgn language interpreter. She is able to read tarot for the deaf community and has some interesting insights as to how tarot is similar to American sign language.
ReeNee Cummins is making a scientific study of the synchronicities that happen when a group of tarotists pull cards about national and planetary issues.
Dax Carlisle, founder of Tarot Guild, has just launched Rainbow Psychics, a service that provides readings for the GLBTQ community.
See how these four special people are truly tarot innovators!

This Week's One-Card Reading
Your One-Card Reading for this week is The Moon.
Wow. The Moon is a very complex card. Some readers love it, some readers fear it. As a reading for the week, here's what I see.
This week, pay special attention to the spiritual messages in your dreams, both sleeping and waking. Be on the lookout for unseen forces around you. Some of these unseen forces may be helpful; others may be trying to confuse you.
Be clear in your intentions and your direction. Use your intuition to separate fact from fiction. Stay true to your spiritual path. You are the keeper of your own truth. Do not let others manipulate you, or lead you away from your dreams, aspirations or sense of personal power.
I wrote a poem for this card as part of my ongoing 78 Poems Project. You can read it here.
This Week's Special Read
Since Tarot Tips featured the Tarot Topics Community Blog, I think we will make it our special read today. Check out my post on the Five of Pentacles, Linda's post on the Simple Treasures of Tarot, and Joanne's review of my new book, Tarot Tour Guide.

The Four Elements and the Major Arcana
6:00-7:15 pm EST
The four elements of life are Earth, Air, Fire and Water. They each have metaphysical properties as well as physical properties.
The four elements correlate with the four suits of the Minor Arcana of the tarot. They also correlate with individual cards of the Major Arcana.
The term “Major Arcana” means “Greater Secrets.” The twenty-two cards of the Major Arcana contain the most spiritual messages and lessons of the tarot, and tell the story of our journey through life.
When we learn the elemental associations for each of the Major Arcana cards, we have a clear way to understand these important cards.
This 75 minute webinar will help the tarot student more fully understand the four elements. It will provide a deeper way to comprehend each of the Major Arcana cards. The student will be able to more fully interpret the Major Arcana cards, whether reading for yourself or others.

One Card Tarot Reading
This week’s One Card Tarot Reading is…
The Six of Pentacles
The Six of Pentacles is about sharing your resources with others. It is the card of charity. It suggests that you are successful enough to share your time, energy and other resources with those who deserve them. It also advises that if you are in a difficult situation you should ask for what you need, and know that you will receive appropriate resources.
We all have times of need, and times of bounty. If we share with each other, we will all always have enough.
This Week’s Special Read
I actually have two special posts to share with you! I want to welcome Joanne Matthew to my non-tarot blog at The Dark Forest. She has shared a post about prayer that you might enjoy. Check it out here.
I also wrote a guest blog for the Tarot Guild entitled “Icons and Elements” that tarot enthusiasts will enjoy! Check it out here.
Please remember I am available for readings by phone and Skype, and in my office in West Palm Beach!
Hope to see you soon.
