Had a Reading...

At a craft fair on Saturday, a benefit for youth at risk and sponsored by the locl WAV chapter here (Women Against Violence), I was selling my hats and neckwarmers. I had arranged the day before to have my Tarot cards read; I really liked the fact that the woman doing the readings had old worn cards, copies of the original deck from Medieval times..the real deal...and her demeanor was very open...
I am a bit cautious about the Tarot...I don't do it often, because it can be a very heavy experience emotionally...even good news carries its own burdens.  I had a very bad (read: mediocre) reading when I first came to the Island, and wanted to try a more simpatico reader, if I could find one...
This all took place just before the Fair opened, and I'm so happy I took the chance...
A proper reader asks no questions, and tells you the truth: the cards do not predict or tell the future, and the information you receive is something you already know, but perhaps are feeling unsure or unwilling to face...she had an interesting style of laying out the cards, and what the cards indicated was what I needed to hear. 

I won't bore any reader with details, but having your ideas and dreams fed back to you in  a form that makes sense in your universe is very comforting, even exhilarating...
So glad I did this, and, let's be honest, cheaper and more entertaining by far than a shrink....
