The Unhappy Hierophant

The Hierophant card represents the traditional, orthodox teachings of religion considered suitable for the masses. She is the ruling power of organized religion. jasonbeamstudios.com/site/g_thehierophant.asp (NSFW) I don’t think there’s an unhappier card in the Tarot deck than the Hierophant. There are more frightening and probably saddening cards to receive in a reading, the Tower and […]

The Stickers are Here!

Hey look! We’ve got stickers! They arrived today from PSPrint! They look REALLY good, so you should buy one! That’s right, our first merch is up and online in our new shop! It’s not much yet, but I’ll be continuing to add merchandise throughout the year and hopefully before too long we’ll have a deck […]

The Temporal Rulers – A Spectrum of Power

I’ve always had a very superficial understanding of cards 2, 3, 4 and 5, in the tarot, otherwise known as the temporal rulers compised of the High Priestess (aka Papess), the Empress, the Emperor and the Hierophan (or Pope). Part of this confusion is that much of my early reading grouped cards one and two […]

Notes on Temperance

The structure of Temperance comes about from a quirk of the formatting: it was going to be very difficult to make a chibi angel stand near the bottom of the card with one foot in the water and one foot out. Also, I dislike drawing feet. Really dislike drawing feet. So that’s the first major […]

Stickers!

Good news! On Monday I ordered the first set of Chibi Tarot stickers from PSPrint. Now, some of you may remember that I held a small poll on Facebook to decide which sticker should be the first Chibi Tarot sticker and that Death won in that poll by one vote. There were two reasons that […]

My Vision for the Chibi Tarot

I had a fan (I have a fan!) email me this morning enquiring about possible release dates for the Chibi Tarot, based on this thread from TarotForum.net: http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=173408. I didn’t have a lot of good news, but at least I did have news, and I realized that perhaps a lot of you migh have similar […]

Temperance is live!

The Temperate angel is not one who shies away from passions or power, but who embraces it and who, most importantly, responds to every situation with the appropriate level of strength. Read More »

Chibi Chibi Con!

Thanks to the last minute notice from a new friend of mine, I was able to attend the Chibi Chibi Con this year. It’s without a doubt the closest con to my house, a scant few miles up the road to Evergreen State University. So last Saturday I packed up the family and we drove […]

New Tarot Books!

I ordered some new Tarot books from Fields Book Store last week and they arrived yesterday! The first pair that I ordered was the Robin Wood tarot deck and book. I’m not sure how I’d never noticed the deck before, but I was really drawn to Wood’s style. Her evocation of the tarot is, first, […]
