09 - The Wheel Turns Again (Tarot & Rune Reading for the Year Ahead)
Solstice Blessings, and a happy new year to you!!
Today’s episode is a little different from the usual… instead of the typical lecture lesson, today we’re getting hands on with some tarot cards, my juniper runes, and a sneak peek into the year ahead!
This is partially a demonstration of one way I like to use divinatory tools, and partially an experiment in prediction and magical preparation—we’ll check back throughout the year to see how the cards and runes from this reading play out in real time across the seasons.
In Today's Lesson:
I spend the night of the Winter Solstice performing a year-ahead reading with my Pam's Vintage Tarot and my Juniper runes
my interpretations of twelve tarot cards and twelve elder futhark runes (and how they play together) as they apply to the next twelve months
language upgrades that have helped me level up my attitude
and probably a lot of other stuff, honestly... this episode IS three hours long...
