You said What?!…Let Your Psychic Read

One of the things on my mind are tarot readings and people’s often unexpected reactions to what they hear. I’ve been informed that a lady I did a reading for was ‘offended’ by something I said. To tell you the truth, I remember the gist of the reading, but not absolutely everything that I said as I interpreted the cards. Let me explain how this process works for those who don’t know– for me, as I turn the cards and view the images, thoughts, perceptions, and pictures begin flooding my mind. You will get the best reading from me if I just open my mouth and start talking as I turn the cards and before the thought or image vanishes. This means that I can’t stop to weigh and measure every word that comes from my mouth during every minute of the reading. If I would do this, the process would not work, the rythm would be lost. I can’t pause and break my chain of thought to ask myself, “Would this person be offended if I tell them that they have a tendency to procrastinate to the point of ruining their own chance of success?”…Nope, can’t do it– if I read for someone, I will open my mouth and let it roll, whatever comes up with the cards will just have to come up. I wouldn’t be doing justice to the reading– or my client– if I have to weigh and measure how sensitive every stranger that sits across from me may be.

That’s just the way it is, and that’s just the way it works. Will you be offended by anything said in a reading? Odds are, no. But I won’t guarantee that this won’t happen. And here’s just a little food for thought…If someone is offended by something that’s said in a reading– what would they think about all of the things that go unsaid? (If only they knew!!)

A psychic reading is a very intimate thing, it allows the reader a peek at your psyche– all bare and pink and fresh, with every pimple and imperfection laid out in plain site. Just remember that your reader is on your side; your reader is not there to pass judgement. And just like a doctor in a war zone, most psychics can say ‘we’ve seen it all’.

Online Tarot Lessons
to begin Your Tarot Journey!

I’ve developed an online tarot class comprised of three lessons to start you down the road to tarot interpretation. The first class touches on a card a day in a way that literally dismantles how you look at tarot cards, how you view traditional meanings, and the art of intuitive reading. You’ll quickly move on, learning how to put the cards together in a simple spread, discovering the story the tarot tells, as well as learning how to write your own interpretation through the cards. The third lesson will teach you how to broaden your tarot connections and add unexpected insights into a reading.

My book, “Tarot: A Witch’s Journey”, is the textbook used for these online tarot classes. You can purchase this book at amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, or Labyrinth House Publishing.

These tarot classes will be emailed to you in rich text format.

Past Life Readings

Through the magick of the tarot and the intuitive ability of the reader, learn about your past life. Who were you? What period of history did you live in? How did you make your living, and how did you relate to the people around you?

By learning about your past life, you add to the experience, knowledge, and wisdom of your present life. You may discover why you’re drawn to particular historical times and places; why you experience incidents of dejavu; why you keep attracting a particular type of partner or friend in this life.

This Reading is for You

 

alone 2

The reading that I’m doing this morning is for you. I don’t know who you are, how the circumstances in your life stands, or whether you will even find this reading. But I woke up this morning with the distinct feeling that someone needs this. I’m going to draw three cards for you, and these cards will be a window into your life, the people who inhabit it, and those issues that are important to you. You will recognize yourself, you will recognize the people who may show up within this group of cards; and you will know, with absolute certainty, that these cards are speaking especially to you, specifically to you, for you and you alone.

The cards: Ace/cups……3/wands……2/pentacles

You’re just beginning a new relationship, perhaps you’re even in transition yet, moving from one relationship to the next. This process can be frought with indecision, that type of second guessing that makes your movement through life feel jerky. There are times that you may even carry around a rock in the pit of your stomach. So many of life’s big changes are like that, and relationships are one of the biggest. But you will get through it. That heavy stone-like feeling in your mid-section will go away, and what seemed new and slightly scary will become routine so quickly that you almost won’t notice the transition.

In order to successfully make this transition, and in order to work towards this new relationship with hopes that it will grow into something lasting and important, you will have to work through issues of defensiveness and insecurity– the scum that’s usually left over from previous experiences. This will take time and patience, both on your part, and on the part of your new partner, or your potential partner. This can also be a measuring stick for the character of this new person in your life. They should be sensitive enough to your feelings that they respect your wishes, whatever those boundaries may be at this time.

Eventually life will come full circle, it always does…right up until the end. This is one of those things we can be sure of, just like death and taxes, as the old saying goes. The most important thing to remember is not to hinder your own freedom with your own hangups. It’s bad enough when other people impact our lives with restrictions and invisible boundaries we don’t want and didn’t ask for; but it’s even worse when we do this to ourselves. How many things in life we might never accomplish or leave unfinished, because we didn’t allow ourselves to proceed naturally. Proceed naturally now…what else can you do?

The number three is relevant to you and your life at this moment; and I feel that this has to do with the area of relationships. It’s very possible that you can’t move forward because you are still staked to one spot, to one person, or point of contact. If you don’t learn to let go, to move on, to forgive, to give up and get on with it, to slide on by to the next level…you will stagnate. Life is a series of progressions. Life is constant movement, sometimes so swift and unrelentless that it makes us dizzy. But life is never suppose to be still– at least not the type of still that prohibits new growth. Lift one foot and take that first step. The second step will be easier. I promise. It always is.

Though you may keenly feel life’s burdens at this moment, that will change. You’re at the threshold of a new day, a new dawn. Once you take that first hesitant step towards your future, the rusty cogs and wheels of life will begin turning again. They might be a little stiff and noisy at first, but the more they move, the smoother the journey will become. Sometimes it’s just getting started that’s the hard part.

You struggle with finding balance now, but your struggle is with that which will smooth out naturally, all on it’s own. Don’t fight it so much. When you do this you are actually working against your own energy. This will make you tired. The last thing I’m going to tell you, and maybe the most important, is not to take off on life’s grand adventure without a game plan, your game plan. When you start a journey, you should have a destination in mind, otherwise how will you know when you’ve arrived?

THE TAROT PARLOUR

 

 

Author’s Corner: Questions & Answers

Where are you from?  I was born in Gardena California on September 24, 1957. My parents went back to Mitchell, South Dakota, three months after I was born, for my grandfather’s funeral. They stayed, and this is where I was raised. I’ve spent the last twenty-two years here in Fremont, Nebraska, about forty miles northwest of Omaha, raising a family of seven children.

Tell us your latest news?  I’ll be at Next Millennium in Omaha, Nebraska, in April, May, and June for book signings. I’ll also be giving tarot readings. I’ll be posting more information on this, including dates/times at my Facebook author page. You can also find this information at my website, The Witch’s Corner: ladyamythyst.webs.com

When and why did you begin writing?  I’ve been writing since I started my first journal when I was 12-years-old. I was inspired by Anne Frank, and I wanted to record my life and times in order to relish everything and to forget nothing.

When did you first consider yourself a writer?  It finally dawned on me that I was a writer when I stood in the middle of my kitchen staring at a check in my hand that I had received for a short story I submitted to a magazine in Colorado. This was in the early/mid 1990s, when I was still in the process of having babies and running a very busy household. The idea that someone would actually pay me for something that I had written was mind-blowing.

What inspired you to write your first book?  I believe that it was the enlightenment and love of my spiritual path that inspired me to write my first book. The path of the pagan is so inspiring and so misunderstood by so many. I decided to write this book after a very dear high school friend, someone I thought I would be friends with the rest of my life, ended our friendship when I finally revealed to her that I collect tarot cards.

There was dead silence on the other end of the phone, and then in a very small voice she said, “That’s very dark.”

Well, no, divination and the tarot are not dark at all. The tarot is such an inspiring tool, not only for divination, but to venture into your psyche through meditation and magick. I wanted people to know this. I wanted people to understand the process of divination, how it works, when it can actually be useful in unexpected ways, and how enlightening life’s journey can be with it.

I realized that the way to do this was through a book.

Do you have a specific writing style?  I’ve been told by readers that my style is very ‘chatty and natural’. Basically, I write pretty much the way I speak– well, for the most part. The formality of style depends on who I’m writing for, what the subject needs in order to be understood; and how entranced, inspired, or magickal I feel.

How did you come up with the title?  For my last book, “Tarot: A Witch’s Journey”, it was really pretty easy…I’m a professional tarot reader, it’s been a long round-a-bout route getting to where I am today, and I’m a witch. There ya’ go!

Are experiences based on someone you know, or events in your own life?  The experiences in my book are all real events from my life and the people/circumstances that I’ve encountered over years of professionally reading the tarot for the public. You meet all different kinds of people seeking answers to life’s questions, and their expectations of the tarot reader and a psychic reading are very diverse and sometimes unexpected.

In my book I’ve actually included real tarot readings I’ve done for clients, publishing them anonymously of course, to give an idea of exactly how this process works and what the end results will be like.

What books have most influenced your life most?  When I was a teen-ager, the book that most touched me and influenced me was, “The Diary of Anne Frank”. I was twelve years old the first time I read it, and I just naturally assumed it would have a happy ending…it didn’t. I was stunned. I re-read it then without the haze of innocence to shade the harsh reality.

Years later I discovered another ‘Anne’…Anne Morrow Lindbergh and her series of diaries and letters. Again, there was a tragedy included in the author’s life and these books, the kidnapping and murder of her infant son in 1932. But this time I got to read past the tragedy to see how the author learned to live with her sorrow and to rebuild her life. Anne’s books contained very poignant insights on life and how we cope so as to be able to live.

If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?Definitely Anne Morrow Lindbergh. I lent a friend one of Anne’s books once, and when my friend had finished reading it, her amazed response was, “This lady is pure thought.” I also greatly admire Ann Moura, as well as Ly de Angeles and her beautiful literary style.

What book are you reading now? I’m doing research now for my third book, “The Book of Magick” (working title), so my reading consists of books on topics relating to my research; books on crystals, stones, correspondences, animals, herbs, and such.

What are your current projects? I recently finished my second book, “The Gray Witch’s Grimoire”, and have it under submission with a publisher at this time. This book deals exclusively with magick from the perspective of the gray witch, which might rattle a few chains. I believe the modern witch of today, greatly influenced by a mostly Christian society, has lost site of the true wise-woman of ancient times. This book includes information on not only magick that falls in the shady area of witchcraft, taking advantage of a darker and often misunderstood energy, but it also deals with touchy Wiccan subjects, such as self-initiation.

I intend to write a companion book to “The Gray Witch’s Grimoire” sometime in the very near future, most likely a study guide..

Right now, as I’ve said, I’m working on “The Book of Magick”, which attempts to gather correspondences for all types of magick, from a variety of paths, to make it easier for the magickal practitioner to coordinate their spell work and gather the items they need to make their magick a reality.

Name one entity that you feel supported you outside of family members. The Mother Goddess…it’s the strength, resolution, and peace I find as a practicing witch and member of my coven that inspires me.

Do you see writing as a career? I have a feeling that very few writers, except those who’s novels are destined for movies, can depend on a writing career as their sole income. As a free-lance writer, with no other source of income, you will also run into issues and concerns such as health insurance and retirement plans.

If you had to do it all over again, would you change anything in your latest book?  Overall– no. I think my editor, Starr Price, did an amazing job at creating a wonderful book from my piles and piles of manuscript pages, coordinating all the information I presented into a magickal experience. I think an artist or writer would never stop tweaking their work if someone didn’t gently take it from their hands and say, “Okay, it’s done now.”

Who designed the cover?  The cover for “Tarot: A Witch’s Journey” was designed by Starr Price. I had no idea what she was going to do. She phoned me one day, saying that the cover was finished and she wanted me on the line when I looked at it for the first time for feedback– it blew me away! My girls were behind me squealing in delight. I can’t tell you how many comments and compliments I’ve received about the cover to this book. I tell these people I take no credit for this, it was all Starr Price’s artistic talent and magickal muse.

What advice would you give aspiring writers?  I’d tell them to keep writing, keep writing, keep writing. It’s so easy to come up with a million ideas that you never put down on paper. Don’t just dream about being a writer, but actually do it. This requires determination, discipline, and perseverance, but the rewards are worth it in the end.

Magick for the Day

Saturday…Planet/Saturn:  ambition, structure, realism, self-preservation (this can get sticky, falling within gray magick), business, self-control, the dark side, retribution/revenge, the untamed spiritual side; Colors/black, gray, deep navy blue; Herbs/black poppy seeds, myrrh, pepper, wormwood, henbane, hellebore, hemlock, witch grass; Number/8; Letters/H, Q, Z; Stones/apache tear, obsidian, onyx, tourmaline (black), hematite, jet

Save Saturday as the day to pull magickal punches where they’re needed, whether someone or something needs banishing or just a hard slap on the wrist.  Straighten out the gossip, zip the liar’s lips, knock jealousy out the window, get the bad guy– track him down with your magickal guns.  Protection magick is a highpoint for this day and these correspondences.  For me the magickal cry for Saturday is, "Batten down the hatches and get out of my way if you’re smart."  Saturday wreaks of no nonsense magick, isn’t for the sissies, and inspires good behavior by using some magickal muscle.

Tarot card of the day:
Knight of Cups

This knight heralds romantic activities and, with the influence of Saturn, this will be more like Heathcliffe and Catherine– without the pristine happy endings of a Disney fairytale.  The sex will be wild, unbridled, and somewhat dangerous; the fights will be rampaging with make-up sex that will take your breath away.  Romantic relationships begun at this point will be so up and down, so tumultuous, that it may not be intended to last forever– the intensity would be too much.  Take what you will from this encounter, learn and grow, enjoy the good parts, survive the bad…and move on to calmer waters, smoother encounters.

A Psychic Moment: Clairaudience

tarot-2.jpg Tarot 4 picture by witch_of_endore

 

Know before you read this that clairaudience is a very rare thing for me to experience. Although I have experienced a clairaudient revelation now and then over the years, I’m basically clairvoyant, so I found this incident to be fascinating.

First, the definition of clairaudience:

This is a person who will pick up a thought and hear it. This persons mental or intellectual understanding is very important and they can make good leaders. We all know someone that we would say was a mental person, always having to understand mentally. They carefully think things through. If this person were to become enlightened they would have the ability to become a medium, someone who channels information from entities who have passed over, because their most heightened sensitivity is to hear.

The alarm had went off at about 5:30am. My husband has it set on the radio instead of the usual alarm buzzer, so we’re woken up by voices or music five mornings a week at the crack of dawn.

 

I opened my eyes and simultaneously saw my husband’s arm reaching to turn off the alarm as I heard my own voice speaking over the radio. I sat up and said to him, “Did you hear that? That was me!”

 

He looked a little puzzled, and I wondered why. He mumbled, “What?” I said, “That was my voice on the radio, didn’t you hear it?”

 

He had not. I couldn’t believe he didn’t hear it. It had been so clear, and it was shocking because I hadn’t expected to hear my own voice.

 

The next day I received an email from the program manager of an internet radio network. He wanted to know if I wanted my own radio show.

(ps– I declined the offer. Although I really enjoy being an occasional guest on radio programs, the idea of being responsible for a weekly show just seems too stressful for this old witch, and I don‘t know how I‘d fit it in time-wise with everything else I‘m doing.)

A Psychic Moment

 

tarot-2.jpg Tarot 4 picture by witch_of_endore

I had felt that an ominous message was coming for 2 or 3 weeks.  I did a tarot spread one morning, before the mail came, to see if I could expect something nasty (in-law problems, long story).

 

An envelope from my mother-in-law arrived.

 It gave me a terrible feeling of dread because the tarot spread had told me that “yes”, I could expect unpleasant news.  And also, the “Card of the Day” was the 10 of Swords, never a good omen—backstabbing, surgery, illness, death…that is usually what this card brings to me.  I shudder when I see it pop up in a reading.

I took the letter that my mother-in-law had sent and went to have lunch with my husband during the noon hour.  I gave the letter to him, sitting there on pins and needles while he opened it…

It was information on sporting events!

(Sigh of relief)

That night my mother-in-law called…my husband’s father was diagnosed with lymphoma.

What is An Online Psychic Tarot Reading Really Like?

Photobucket

 
I am a professional tarot reader, psychic, and clairvoyant. I use the intuitve method of reading the cards, and I’m currently working on a manuscript for a tarot book based on this practice. I give online tarot readings at my website, as well as live in-house readings at various local new-age shops. I also post video readings on Youtube and Myspace; this is an option I offer my clients at my tarot site. Although the tarot is my favored form of divination, I also use the pendulum for dowsing.

Following is an actual online reading done for one of my clients, posted anonymously of course:

 

Tarot Reading

12 card spread

  

1.    Will “Roger” and I get back together?

 

Death

9/Pentacles          Page/wands          Queen/swords ®

 

Death…the great transformation, tremendous change, a complete turn around, endings and beginnings.

 Will you and “Roger” get back together?…At first glance, the answer would be ‘no’.  On second reflection, in order for this to happen—a reconciliation—1)  You must go through a major transformation; 2)  “Roger” must go through a major transformation; or 3)  the circumstances surrounding each of you must go through a major transformation.

 Tremendous life change is not something to fear, it is the doorway for new beginnings and new adventures.

 9/pentacles…This card represents a woman who is in a good place in her life.  She’s not only comfortable in the material sense of the word, but emotionally and spiritually as well.

 She has self-confidence, a solid idea of who she is, where she’s going in life, and what her ultimate goals will be.  This lady is also in control…more so than some people around her who have not yet reached this peak in life.

 This card either represent you, the essence of who you are; or it represents a phase of life/state of mind that you should make a conscious effort to achieve.

 Page/pentacles…The Pages are usually messengers, and this Page deals with business/financial/employment issues.  He heralds a message that may 1) change your financial position, 2) offer you an opportunity for growth in your career, or a new job, 3) bring to the table financial/business/employment issues that have been put off, perhaps shoved into the background.

 As figures on a checkerboard, this Page’s appearance may be giving you an opportunity to make the first move regarding these issues.  If this is the case, be sure to think things through carefully, thinking ahead to future results from a decision that you may make now.

 Queen/swords ®…This card, in its own way, seems to be reinforcing the key card to this group—Death. 

 The Queen of swords is most often a solitary woman.  In her solitude she often develops a sense of self-confidence and personal strength.  She generally achieves her goals through diligence, determination, and the ability not to be thrown off course by the issues of life around her.

 As a whole, this group of cards seems to be telling you to focus on “You”, on your career/employment, on your personal goals and ambitions, and less on your relationship with this man.

 

2.    Is he the right person for me?

 

The Lovers ®

The Moon ®          Ace/wands ®          King/pentacles

 

The Lovers ®…Since this card came up reversed for this very specific question, my first response would be a quiet ‘no’.  With that being said, I would expand on the meaning of this card in this position to say that 1) there may be too many conflicting issues, 2) there may be too much conflict between your personalities, and 3) there may be too wide a discrepancy in what each of you wanted from this relationship and how each of you sees the outcome.

 The Moon ®…This is perhaps the one card that I find most disconcerting when it shows its face in a reading regarding relationships.

 The Moon is generally telling me that someone is being deceitful.  This could mean several things—1) you are not being totally honest with “Roger”, 2) “Roger” is not being totally honest with you, 3) you are looking at this man or this relationship through rose colored glasses and not acknowledging certain negative or even destructive aspects of it.

 (*Side Note:  I feel that “Time” seems to be an issue here for some reason.)

 Ace/wands ®…The most important thing this card seems to be telling us is that, for some reason, this relationship is hampering your growth and success in career, business, or employment.

 The reversed wands also points to a lack of power, or loss of power.  You may be feeling right now that you have no control over your life or its outcome, as though everything is out of your hands.

 It’s very important that you lose this attitude and regain your own personal power and control over your life and the decisions you make.

 King/pentacles…This King may very well represent the man in question, “Roger” himself.  This gives me a clear impression of the situation regarding his personality and the situation you are facing.

 I’m going to list both the light and dark aspects of this card, though by coming up in an upright position, it is the light—or positive—aspects that are highlighted.

 The King of pentacles has a very ‘strong’ personality; even the quiet ones tend to maintain control of their surroundings and the people in it.  He’s cunning, often a good businessman, though he is able to cut throats to get ahead without batting an eye.  He takes competition very seriously.  He’s usually honest and fair when it comes to doing business with others, though he will take any advantage he can to succeed.

 The downside to this King is his need to have absolute control of everything and everyone around him.  And he often finds round-a-bout ways of accomplishing this.  He holds grudges big time.  Once you’ve offended him, he’s not apt to forgive quickly, or at all.  He also is very vindictive and may seek his own personal type of revenge against anyone he feels has wronged him—and he can be very creative in this endeavor.

 

3.    What is my direction in life meant to be?

 

10/wands

5/swords          8/swords          7/wands

 

10/wands…Whichever direction you’re going, you are going to be shouldering a lot of responsibility, and this may put great weight upon you.  It’s something that, because you are aware of it now,  you can prepare for.

 This card may also be telling me that the directions you choose, as so many things in life really are a ‘choice’, may involve a lot of uphill moments, a lot of work and determination to complete or achieve.

 You should remember that, as so often is the case, the really important things in life require effort.

 5/swords…The direction that you choose may involve some conflict at some point. Though you may very well come out as the victor here.  If you allow yourself to constantly be drug into every squabble and confrontation, it will eventually wear you down.  This card is basically telling you to choose your battles wisely, and conserve your energy where you can in order to put it to better use.  Also, you may have to fight to succeed, to reach your goals, to find your place and purpose in life.

 8/swords…The direction you choose in life may, at times, leave you feeling ‘trapped’.  If this is the case remember:  You can always change your direction.  Sometimes where we end up is not where we meant to go, it’s not how we expected it to be, but that’s alright.  The future is not set in stone, but is faceted and formed by a series of events and decisions, some of these random—and this idea tends to rattle some people.

 Never settle for anything in life that makes you feel bound, or may restrict your freedom of thought, expression, or movement.  Always make decisions only after clearly looking at all the alternatives and consequences.  Making a decision in any other way would be like stepping off a cliff, having not been looking to see where you were going.

 7/wands…The direction you may take in life may not meet with the approval of all friends and family.  This might leave you feeling a bit defensive about the decisions you have made.

 By being aware of this, you can be prepared to defend these decisions if need be.

 

Also, know that when you have your back to the wall and really don’t see any way out, there is an opening, a means of escape, very close to you, you just won’t be feeling aware of it at the time because it won’t be blaringly obvious.

 

 

Who is Lady Amythyst?

I am a wildly eclectic, self-initiated, solitary Witch. I include in my practice of the Craft hoodoo, various aspects of Wicca—from a variety of traditions, philosophies of Dianic Wicca, Green Witchcraft, ceremonial magick/kitchen wytchery, as well as practices that I have developed for myself over the years and which I have found successful and fulfilling.

I am a legally ordained member of the clergy, receiving my ordination from The Church of Spiritual Humanism, by R. A. Zorger, on November 10, 2007; and I am a Reverend of the Universal Life Church, ordained on March 3, 2010, by Pastor Kevin Andrews. I chose the Wiccan title of ‘Lady’ as my professional clergical title. Currently, I am the High Priestess of the Coven of Bristolwicks, a closed, female only coven of 13 individuals. They are my Sisters, my equals, my friends, and my inspiration.

I am a Reiki practicioner, receiving my Reiki Level I Attunement from my closest friend and Reiki Master, which made the experience moving, incredibly meaningful and spiritually fulfilling. She, in turn, received her attunements from her grandmother. This is a fascinating world of healing and serenity, and I feel I will be a student of Reiki throughout this lifetime and many lifetimes to come. I also practice crystal therapy, herbology, and chakra balancing.

I am a professional tarot reader, psychic, and clairvoyant. I use the intuitve method of reading the cards, and I’m currently working on a manuscript for a tarot book based on this practice, which will hopefully be completed later this spring. I give online tarot readings at my website, as well as live in-house readings at various local new-age shops. I also post video readings on Youtube and Myspace; this is an option I offer my clients at my tarot site. Although the tarot is my favored form of divination, I also use the pendulum for dowsing.

In the course of this endeavor, I’m also an artist, web designer, pagan activist, animal activist, paranormal investigator, and occasional radio personality.

My life is neither glamorous nor exotic– it consists of mountains of laundry, piles and piles of dishes, an often cluttered living space, lots of cats, heavy traffic, conflicting schedules, and always in the background– that wonderful steady ‘hum’ that is Life.

I’m a hit and miss housekeeper—mostly miss if you ask my husband, avid reader, rock hound, chocoholic, master procrastinator, dreamer and visionary, the typical ‘crazy cat lady’, organic gardener, and a very stubborn independent wife.
