Waiting for Godot....

[fajrdrako]

Well, actually, I'm waiting for my friends Pat and Sandi to bring over a piece of furniture - a dresser. They're due any time soon.

More and more I'm in a decluttering mode: getting rid of things, trying to give myself space rather than things. I wonder how much I'll manage it? The new furniture is supposed to be a move in the right direction.

I've also been enjoying reading about tarot cards lately, refreshing myself on new ideas about reading them. I was supposed to give a reading to a few friends last week - it didn't happen, but I'll still do it. The reading is renewing my interest, making me want to explore new techniques and ideas.

Hmm... I could do a reading for Lex.

And hey, maybe a Tarot reading would give me some idea of what was happening on Carnivale!

Could you do a reading for me, sometime? I've always been curious about that...

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

I'd be delighted to do a reading for you. Maybe we can find an evening - you can come over and have a reading. That would be fun. Want to come over for supper?

[lmondegreen.livejournal.com]

That would be great, thanks!! Anytime you're free... (except Wednesdays - I have previous engagements on Wednesdays *g*)

What deck do you have? I've always relied on my "Tarot of the Cat People"--I think it misses me. Haven't played with it for a long time!

Wednesdays? Yeah, funny I'm busy then too. (big *g*)

Next Friday, maybe? A week from today?

I think my deck was missing me, too - it's been a while! I use the Hanson-Roberts deck, which is closely based on the Rider-Waite, but prettier. I own a few others: The Renaissance Tarot is incredibly beautiful, and the Norse Tarot is fascinating, though I have never actually done a reading with it.

Looking into my box... I also have "I Tarocchi Marvel" (an Italian thing based on Marvel superheroes), Dylan Dog - which, now I look at it, really isn't a tarot deck at all, it's a beatiful artistic deck of regular playing cards, but I always thought it would be great for a tarot reading. I also have the Egyptian Tarot Deck and the Aquarian Tarot and the Neil Gaiman/Dave McKean Sandman tarot set.

I wouldn't take much to push me over into the realms of the card-collector, but I try to show some self-control.

I've seen the "Tarot of the Cat People" in stores but I've never actually handled it, or had a reading with it, or done a reading with it.

Do you have a favourite book about tarot? A reference book or anything like that?

[lmondegreen.livejournal.com]

works for me!

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Okay, you're on! 6.30?

[lmondegreen.livejournal.com]

Sure thing! And I'll see you Wednesday, too

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yup! I haven't thought about Wednesday food. Hmm. Not wanting to stray from the diet.... Maybe I can make vegetables and rice and get someone to bring meat. Are there kinds of meat you can't eat? (I'm not sure of the details of your diet.)

[lmondegreen.livejournal.com]

I can eat any kind of meat available. As long as it's not prepared with a sugary sauce, or breaded, or anything like that. They also say to go easy on 'organ' meat like liver, etc., but that's not a problem since I don't go anywhere near it anyway :-)

I'll bring snacks, if you like.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'll get someone to bring meat. Maybe myself! I don't think Patti can join us. (Tho' I'm not sure.)
