I've been busy, and missed the Full Moon. Ah, well, I did get some paintings into a mini-art exhibit here in town and I have been doing NaNoWriMo, trying to finish and then start some new unicorn-related stories. (Since I had a deadline for rewriting one snow-unicorn story and for finishing another, I named this year's "Novel" Unicorn Triptych. I've also been working on A Fiction Writer’s Quirky Guide to Courting Inspiration and Foiling Writer’s Block and musing about that Patreon thing. I have actually started to write up some rewards and goals, and am hesitating about whether I've got them at all right. I'm also hesitating about doing a video. Ack!

What have you been up to? I love to hear from you.

New friends and old are very welcome.

About the readings,

You can simply ask for a single card (with the usual clarifying card for people who tip). The guitar case below is my personal PayPal link, featuring my own artwork, which still inspires me even though it isn't Tarot-related.

I am also offering a five-card reading for $25, or if you want a larger reading we can discuss costs. As always, a signal boost will allow you to ask for a clarification card on some part of this reading, if you wish. Alternatively, for at least $10 you can ask for a Torn World reading and get an in-character reading set in Affamarg or the Breidalam Mountains using that world's standard layout for the divination disks.

Regardless of the length of the reading, you may ask about real life or a creative project, even for a character you play in a game. I can draw a card for you to meditate on, to represent the Guide you need right now, or to get you unstuck. I can draw a card for your protagonist or villain, or can draw a card or cards for you to use as writing or art prompts, and I can modify a more-traditional five-card spread into a prompt for a story focusing on plot or characters or a little of both. Let me know if you have any particular request.

For free one card readings, you can pick from the Brian Froud's Faeries Oracle, the Daughters of the Moon Tarot (one of the round decks), or the Shapeshifter Tarot. If you don't pick a deck, I might pick from any of the decks available to me.

The first card is free (though tips are always appreciated). Paid readings, short or long, also let you ask me to use any of my other decks, including but not limited to my combined Susan Seddon Boulet Animal Spirits and Goddesses cards and my Fantasy Showcase Tarot deck where each card was done by a different science fiction/fantasy artist.

Tipping can also be used to request a private reading.

Signal boosts are very much appreciated, and also earn you the right to ask for a clarifying card. (If you only signal boost, please do not ask for two cards to start with. A clarifying card, if the reading is unclear to you, is fine.)

I understand all too well that when people don't have cash or spoons that is generally when they most need inspiration. Don't be afraid to ask for a card if you can't tip.

When 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 $2 (Paypal charges fees). If Paypal doesn't work for you, drop me a message and we'll work something out.

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

I will reply to all requests. In the highly unlikely event that the number of requests nears my limits, I'll close this card draw by changing the status line below rather than risk leaving anyone without a response.

Thank you, and Blessed Be!

Status: Open to free one-card readings until I go to sleep Sunday night (which will doubtless be well after midnight) and open to tipped readings until this status message is changed.

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

A card from Daughters of the Moon, please? I seem to be Thoroughly Stuck on everything spiritual and/or creative—I'm looking for either why this is so or how to get out of it. (I'll probably tip to ask about the other. Not while I'm on work wifi, though!)

Thanks.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Thank you.

I'm tip momentarily for a clarifying card. :)

I would love a card, please. I'm deep in working on Nano, editing the fragmented manuscript of the first book in the trilogy that we and [personal profile] shashigai wrote together. It's difficult without him, but healing, and any hints of what's happening there outside myself are welcome. Shapeshifters deck?

I never thanked you for this reading. Thank you.

It seemed to me that this card showed clearly what things might look like from a perspective outside myself. Where Shashigai's influence was solid and bold, not caught up and muddied by my fears/loss. Where my own creative vision is coming out less precisely than it seems from the inside. I got some feedback that showed I was forgetting to describe things that were so patently obvious and familiar to me that I didn't realize they would provoke questions to an outsider.

In this next section I have to work on, there may be a lot of fragments that don't make it in. I'm still struggling with the organization of it, which of course has to be done before I can get any further with word count.

Me again - the usual. Life's been a bit unsettled lately, to the point where I've been wondering whether Mercury is retrograde. I'll leave a tip as soon as this comment uploads. Thanks!

acelightning: the Tarot card "The Star" (Tarot)
From: [personal profile] acelightning
The Queen of Cups is my Significator in the classic Rider/Waite/Coleman deck -not because of the emotional aspects, not because her element is Water, but because of her psychic and/or visionary aspects.

I am stretching myself too thin, and in both of the ways you describe! And also just because there are so many mundane things - Thanksgiving is the most obvious one, even though my "feast" will be just my husband and myself, whenever he gets home from work. But all the December holidays are looming, too. Fortunately, one of the "holidays" I celebrate in December is my birthday, and it happens to fall on one of my husband's days off this year, so we are determined to go somewhere and do something and just be together. (I think I'm the neglected rose!) Now I just need to figure out how to look at the mirror/window...

Thanks!

You are, as alway, welcome - I only wish I had more money to spread around :-)

May I please have a card from the Faeries Oracle?

Advice on better organising myself for sleep would be appreciated. :)

(The problem isn't that I don't sleep, it's that I fall asleep where I am because I can't continue to be awake,)

Tonight I'm trying reorganising things a bit....

Thank you.

I'm falling asleep at the right time, just nowhere near a bed.....
