What with the blizzard in the news, and it being full moon tonight, it feels right to do another card draw. Come on in, have some tea or hot chocolate, and I'll draw a card for you. I hope you'll understand if you have to pour for yourself; I can only get so close to having you physically in my warm, friendly home. That does have some positive aspects--if you're allergic, the cats (always curious when magick is afoot) won't make you sneeze!

Today, for free one card readings, you can pick from the Brian Froud's Faeries Oracle, my combined Susan Seddon Boulet Animal Spirits and Goddesses cards, or the Shapeshifter Tarot. You can ask a question, ask for a Guide, for inspiration, or you can just ask for a card. You can also ask for a card or Guide for one of your characters or in some other way ask for advice or inspiration for a creative project.

The first card is free (though tips are always appreciated). Tips also let you ask me to use any of my other decks, to request a private reading, or to draw a clarifying card. If you want a longer reading, send a direct message so we can agree on the type of reading and rate.

I've written before about why I do readings and some of the decks I use here, feel free to hop over and check me out. I'll wait.

Please consider dropping something in the guitar case below. Readings take time and energy, and even though Milwaukee isn't enclosed in the blizzard, winter heat is pricey.

Signal boosts are very much appreciated, and earn you the right to ask for a clarifying card.

I understand all too well that sometimes people don't have cash or spoons, and it is generally during those times when people most need inspiration! Don't be afraid to ask for a card if you can't tip.

If you tip, it's helpful to me for you to mention it here so I can connect your paypal information with your request.

Tips should be at least $1 (Paypal charges fees). Alternatively, you can tip in Torn World/EMG credits. If neither of these work for you, drop me a message and we'll work something out.

I will reply to all requests. In the highly unlikely event that the number of requests nears my limits, I'll close this One Card Draw (by adding a clear note at the top of the post) rather than risk leaving anyone without a response.

Thank you, and Blessed Be!

As always, these readings are for entertainment and inspiration only. See my "Dandelyon's Readings" page if you have questions.

Unkind or harmful words can also be said by someone who means well and is just clueless.

I once overheard my now-ex-husband "explaining" something I did to a mutual friend. I was so mad! He totally mischaracterized my motives and made me look bad. He was so hurt when I confronted him, saying he was only trying to help. The closest I could get to getting him to understand was to say that I'd rather have someone mad at me for something I'd actually done than for something he said that wasn't even true.

The friendship with the other person has never been the same. *sigh*

To this day, I don't understand his motives for saying something cruel and unflattering even if he thought it was true. I also don't see how he could have thought it was true and still wanted to stay married to me. Now, if his goal was to alienate my friend from me--but I don't really believe he had that motive. It's an explanation that makes logical sense, in retrospect, but it would mean I terribly mis-judged his character.

I might well have pre-emptively explained things to my friend, if I had realized he had a question, but I didn't. My first clue was overhearing the second half of the conversation and at that point, I was too upset with my husband to be coherent and calm and talk to the friend, and then I didn't see him for months. Hmm...sounds like I could have used this faerie's presence back then, huh?

But that's all ancient history, and thank goodness for that!

Oh, absolutely! I spent a good bit of time looking back at that relationship, trying to understand what went wrong, and very specifically how I could spot the warning signs so I could avoid a similar relationship in the future. It's important to learn from the living!

:-D
