Identity CrisisDo you identify with a tarot court card? I have always thought of myself as a King of Swords/Queen of Pentacles-type girl. But lately, I’ve been having an identity crisis or sorts. It all started at this year’s MATS. Julie Cuccia-Watts did a workshop on the four Queens. At one point we randomly pulled a [...] Take Care of Your ToolsIn the August 13, 2009, issue of the British tabloid, The Sun (as reported in Patti Wigington’s Paganism/Wicca blog on About.com), a woman named Kim Yeates made a big mistake. She had a small crystal ball, just 4″ in diameter,  that had cost her about $33.00 (20 British Pounds Stirling). She left it in her [...] Being TransportedLast fall I spent five weeks in Torino, Italy working at the Lo Scarabeo offices. While there, I did a variety of work, including writing some Little White Booklets (those small booklets that come with decks). After reading the one I wrote for Tarot of the Dream Enchantress, Riccardo Minetti, the editor at Lo Scarabeo [...] How do you like your rituals in a book?So, I’m reading Ann Moura’s amazing new manuscript. Yes, it’s been a while since this Green Witch author wrote a new book for us, but it’s turned out to have been well worth the wait. This is the most serious book on all types of Esbat magick that I’ve read since working here. (And sorry, [...] Tarot PlayToday is the first really warm day we’ve had in Minnesota for about a month, which is very unusual since it’s early August. Such a day makes me want to set work aside and just play. At the 2009 Reader’s Studio, Rachel Pollack spoke about the importance of play. Anyone who has read Rachel’s books [...] The SMART Key to Successful MagickI’m often asked for secrets to success in magick. Here is a concept for developing goals that will increase the success of your practical magickal work. I’ve written about this and explain it more thoroughly in a book scheduled to come out in 2010. I hope this will whet your appetite for more! For the [...] Top 3 Celebrity GhostsOne of my colleagues lives in a haunted house. A house so haunted, in fact, that she holds “haunted tea parties” to invite people to experience what she has lived with for the past decade. While she is relatively tuned in to her spirits and knows each personally, very few people outside of her circle [...] Skeptics Shut Down Free DiscussionFor those who don’t know me, let me tell you that beside being involved in magick, I have also been involved with stage magic for many years. As such, I’m a member of one of the most active forums on the internet for magicians, The Magic CafĂ©. One area of magic that has always fascinated [...] Welcome to Tarot Pathways!Welcome to Tarot Pathways! I’m Barbara, and I’ll be your host here at Llewellyn’s tarot corner in the blogosphere. I’ve lots of things planned and so much to share. As tarot enthusiasts know, talking tarot with other like-minded people is a rare pleasure. And I am hoping that this space becomes that—a place where dialogue [...] Real Magick and Harry PotterOver the weekend I saw Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Actually, I had seen it two weeks ago. I went to see it again this last weekend, not because I’m a Pottermaniac, but because I wanted to see it in a different theater. Because of the limitations of theaters, when this movie first came [...] MEET THE BLOGGERS
