Today's Tarot pull: The Chariot 12/19/2024

 Okay, so you get two posts from me in one day, but that catches me up and this is today's card, Decmber 19th, 2024 The Chariot.

This is a card very much about balance, success, recovery, movement and conflict resolution.

The two sphinxes, symbols of justice and mercy but also polar opposites pulling the chariot along. it is up to the charioteer to keep things under control as not to allow these two opposing forces to pull the chariot apart or off track. 

As a Libra I am all about balance and also sometimes find that the biggest hurdle to overcome, this card helps to remind me that taking the time to work out that balance can be highly rewarding, but I must stay mindful.

I can expect to be properly rewarded for putting my best foot forward and I have it in me to move forward and go in the direction I want to in lif if I just be mindul and deliberate with my decisions.

Well, off I go to hopefully make some good choices and be productive. See ya!

Card pull for Wednesday, December 18th, 2024

The Ace of Swords

Every morning I wake up, grab a deck, and draw a card just for a general vibe check and maybe to help some thought of something I've forgotten about rise to the surface. I usually don't really share these or even write them down but that is on my list of things to do for the upcoming year. 

I want to keep track of these pulls and see what kind of effect they really are having on my day-to-day functions.

This was yesterday's card for me and it did help. This is an action card, one of intellect and informed decision-making. 

Direction is very relevant in Tarot, and generally, the understanding is that movement to the right is forward movement. Generally speaking, sword cards speak of some sort of strife or difficulty but the Ace of Swords is more of a sign of finally reaching the light at the end of the tunnel. Victory after a long battle, finally making an informed choice that will benefit the future, and generally some good vibes.

I did make some small decisions yesterday that seem to have already helped to put me on the right track for a better future. I will continue to work toward better wielding this sword and continue forward with my head held a little higher as I feel I am on the right track.

Hello world! Hope this post finds you well!

I know it has been quite some time since I posted here last, but here I am again.

I always make my way back, it just takes me forever sometimes.

If you happen to wander over to my YouTube channel (@DisruptiveGirl) you will find I've been getting some uploads in over there building miniatures, mostly kits.

My Twisted States podcast has been on hold for a bit, but there will be a new episode of that coming out soon.

There are also plans in the works for a new blog-style podcast through my Patreon delving into some of what has been going on in my life lately and plans for the future.

The first episode of that should be up by the first week of Dec.

Anyway, just wanted to check in and say hey! 

See ya around!

What I've been up to

Hello! I know it's been a while, but I'm rambling again!

I've been busy putting things together and trying to create some kind of cohesive thoughts to share, but that's not always the easiest for me.

The photos you see here are of some adorable dinosaur dioramas I made at a workshop taught by the awesome Alison Nevile @Alisondneville on Instagram at @officeofcollecting. The Office of Collecting and Design is a magical little place and a must-see when visiting Las Vegas. 

This was the second workshop I attended at the Office of Collecting with the first being the Spam can diorama, also taught by Alison.

Needless to say, I am now addicted, I've always loved learning, and I'm a bit of a workshop junkie, but the setting of the Office of Collecting just makes it that much more enjoyable and fun.

So, my suggestion to you is to start doing some research, check your local library, Eventbrite, Meetup, FB Events, etc... and go learn something new, it's a great way to support your community and maybe pick up a new hobby, or even career path. Have fun, learn stuff, be awesome!

See you next time!
