wyld_dandelyon: (Creative Joyous Cat)

It's a New Moon tonight, perfect for starting new projects--and what bigger or more important new project is there than the new year? Well, a new novel, maybe, or a short story collection, or an album...

Anyway, there's lots of reasons, right now, that a person might want a card drawn. We face an uncertain future in so many ways. I am hoping to send some good energy out into the world, spark some hope and creativity, and help each of you to get a good start on something that matters to you. So, a card draw!

I hope you will stop by my garden. There's snow outside, so we'll pass through the frost-covered rose bushes and head inside. I'll leave an offering of food to the feral cats and the poor, paraplegic racoon in my yard as we pass--those critters still cannot be convinced I'm harmless, so there's not much I can do for them, but they'll happily eat the food I leave for them. Hopefully that is enough.

You and I can share hot chocolate or tea and chat, and you can get a reading if you would like one. Both new friends and old are welcome.

From now to January 1st, for free one card readings, you can pick from the Brian Froud's Faeries Oracle, my combined Susan Seddon Boulet Animal Spirits and Goddesses cards, or the Shapeshifter Tarot. You can ask a question, ask for a Guide, ask for inspiration, or you can just ask for a card. You can also ask for one of your characters or in some other way ask for advice or inspiration for a creative project.

The first card is free (though tips are always appreciated). Tips also let you ask me to use any of my other decks, to request a private reading, or to draw a clarifying card. If you want a longer reading, send a direct message so we can agree on the type of reading and rate.

Please consider dropping something in the guitar case below. Readings take time and energy, and even though the Milwaukee winter, like everything else, has been affected by global warming, winter heat is pricey and old houses always need repair somewhere or other.

Signal boosts are very much appreciated, and also earn you the right to ask for a clarifying card.

I understand all too well that when people don't have cash or spoons that is generally when they most need inspiration! Don't be afraid to ask for a card if you can't tip.

If you tip, it's helpful to me for you to mention it here so I can connect your paypal information with your request. Tips should be at least $1 (Paypal charges fees). If that doesn't work for you, drop me a message and we'll work something out.

I've written before about why I do readings and some of the decks I use here, feel free to hop over and check me out. I'll wait.

I will reply to all requests. In the highly unlikely event that the number of requests nears my limits, I'll close this card draw by adding a clear note at the top of the post rather than risk leaving anyone without a response. However, I intend to stay open until the end of New Year's Day, and longer for paid readings since, between the holidays and being in these days of low LJ usage, people may find the post late.

Thank you, and Blessed Be!

As always, these readings are for entertainment and inspiration only. See my "Dandelyon's Readings" page if you have questions.

I would love a card, from any deck. So many things are so up in the air! Looking ahead to next year is intimidating.

I invite you in and offer you tea or chocolate (or both, of course). We putter around the kitchen, choosing drinks and snacks, and when we get to the table, he is there, looking at first like a little twist of autumn leaves sitting like a centerpiece, at the very center of the round table. "It is important to be centered." His voice is low and smooth, very pleasant to listen to.

Surprised, we agree, and as hostess, I offer him refreshment. He asks for water to wash feet with, and then busies himself washing first his own feet, then yours, and finally mine. "Feet are so important," he says, "They are your connection to the world, and your way to get around." He reaches with one squeaky-clean foot and picks up the soap, which he rubs against your feet with care, then rinsing them off. "Take care of your feet, and the rest of you, of course. You'll need your connection to reality when my partner arrives."

He dries our feet too, warning that fungus loves feet, and we don't need that, surely we don't.

Then he turns to a newcomer, an insubstantial shifting form made of light, who ruffles his antennae fondly. "I don't have feet, silly!" Her voice is higher, but its range shifts unexpectedly.

"So, you are the great Singer of Initiation!" His voice remains low and smooth, meditative, grounding. "You need your connection to reality too, you know!" He takes the soapy cloth and washes the gleams where feet might be, if you could see her better.

"I do?" She seems amused by the assertion. "My power comes from unrooting people who are stuck when change is needed, not from becoming stuck myself!" But she lets him do his work and she turns to you. "The coming year will be a challenge for you, but Ffaff is right--for you, it's important to stay grounded and centered as you deal with changes not of your own making and as you make changes yourself as well. The practical stuff supports all the rest."
