wyld_dandelyonAll the weeding and such I did in the last few years in the garden has paid off, and I have lots of roses. Sitting here with the window open, the scent is lovely!
Also,ellenmillion 's crowdfunding campaign for her beautiful Unicorn Key cards, is up and it has funded (so it will definitely be real!). The campaign still has nearly 3 weeks to go, and she's already close to funding the third stretch goal.
I have an actual, properly printed prototype deck, complete with gilded edges, in a lovely magnetic box (which she hopes she can offer as a stretch goal), and, to celebrate, you are welcome to ask for a free one card reading, or a paid reading using one of her layouts.
I have permission to post pictures, so in addition to my reading of the card, you'll get to see a photo of your card, posed next to one of my roses, weather permitting. (If you ask for a reading, you'll get a picture of the reading with Ellen's art as backdrop instead.)

As always, New friends and old are very welcome.
Status: If you want a reading now, please ask on this new post (just so I don't have to check both places): https://wyld-dandelyon.dreamwidth.org/477331.html
About the readings,
You can simply ask for a single card with no obligation to tip (though tips are very much appreciated, and tipping allows you to ask for one clarifying card if the initial reading is not clear to you).
I am offering Unicorn Key readings for $20. I can choose a random layout, or if you share your question, I'll pick a layout that suits. Most of these readings are 3-6 cards.
Regardless of the length of the reading, you may ask about real life or a creative project, or even for a character you play in a game. I can draw a card for you to meditate on, to represent the Guide you need right now, or to get you unstuck. I can draw a card for your protagonist or villain, or can draw a card or cards for you to use as writing or art prompts.
The first card is free (though tips are always appreciated). 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.
When 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 $2 (Paypal charges fees). If Paypal doesn't work for you, drop me a message and we'll work something out. The guitar case below is my personal PayPal link, featuring my own artwork, which does inspire me even though it isn't Tarot- or Oracle-related. Or you can use paypal.me/DeirdreMMurphy
I will reply to all requests. If I start to feel overwhelmed, I will close to free readings; in that unlikely event, that will be in nice bold letters after the word Status above. I plan to stay open at least through the weekend for free readings. After that, you can certainly ask for a paid reading, if you want one. (Yes, I still have the stupid long covid, though it's getting (oh so slowly) better, so if I'm too tired or can't focus at any particular moment, I'll rest and return later. I appreciate your patience when that happens.)
As always, while I work hard to offer insight and inspiration, all I can legally promise is entertainment. See my "Dandelyon's Readings" page for a little more about my readings.

This card is all about what you are holding and what is holding you. Consider, do you need to secure some resources, whether it's research or space or a working computer or even something like a memory? Do you need to let go of something, like expectations, or grudges, or anything that is taking up a lot of time and energy you could otherwise be using for your creative projects, and that in the long run you value less than your creative life? You have the freedom to choose what to do with your time. Maybe you need to secure time that's dedicated to your creative work, and take care of the maintenance tasks around that time? Or maybe you need to schedule the boring maintenance stuff for the morning when you're not awake yet and/or the evening when you're tired, so you have the focus to make a good choice between projects and get to work?
Of course, being free doesn't resolve you of responsibility. But having maintenance stuff, even urgent maintenance stuff does not mean you have no right to pursue the things that matter to you. It can certainly be a difficult balance, though. It's so easy to focus only on the one thing that seems most urgent in the moment. Are there things that you only maintain because you still keep them around? Maybe have a rummage sale or a potlatch or give stuff to a charity?
Alternatively, is it possible to do something to give your creative work some of that urgency? Word sprints with one or more friends is just one example of a possibility if it's a writing project. (Being automatically competitive myself, word sprints make the back of my brain want to get more words in.) Scheduling time to do art with someone helps with the visual and fabric arts. I don't know what might work for you, but you probably have some ideas.
Another possible way to look at this answer is to mentally line up the projects you're having trouble choosing between and see if the card resonates with one of them. If you need to focus on themes of keeping and letting go or binding and unbinding, then a project that resonates with that theme is probably a project that will have a good chance of holding your attention once you actually start working on it.
Good luck!
