I: Tarot Deck Review: The Magdalene Legacy Tarot: Lost Keys of the Madonna

It was truly fulfilling to find the new Tarot deck and book conceived by Casey DuHammel and illustrated by Deborah L. Shutek-Jackson in my postbox. I have been eagerly awaiting this creation since my first conversations with DuHammel several years ago. Her passion for the story of Mary Magdalene bowled me over when we first talked! She told me then that she'd been collecting material about Mary Magdalene for many years already, the results of which are now integrated into this excellent and powerful Tarot. Others have reviewed the deck in a more "professional" manner, so I will use this column to share a bit about my own unique view of what a deck like this brings to the art and practice of Tarot as a tool of consciousness-expansion. http://www.tarotarkletters.com/2014/04/tarot-deck-review-the-magdalene-legacy-tarot-lost-keys-of-the-madonna.html

II: NewMoon April 28-29 2014

What a powerful month this has been! Two eclipses, a perfect Grand Square in the Cardinal signs, a powerful surge of both stress and strength blaring through the headlines, and spring coming on like gangbusters after a cold, wet and persistent winter. I hope you are all finding yourselves on the up-side of the season, participating in the rising of the saps and the return of warmth and fertility to the Northern Hemisphere.http://www.tarotarkletters.com/2014/04/newmoon-notes-april-28-2014.html
