Wisdom of the Runes Book and Card Set Review

Allison Sasso May 25, 2023 0 Comments

I love bebopping around at 5 Below because I always find some treasure to take home. This light up badminton set is a steal for 5 bucks! Usually, it’s a toy or book for my son, but every now and then they have a trinket that really catches my eye. Recently, that gem was The Wisdom of the Runes: Uncover the Answers Within. Oh boy… a book AND card set… why yes, I think I WILL add this to my...

Spirit Halloween Tarot Deck: Deluxe Prism Edition Review

Allison Sasso August 26, 2022 5 Comments

I love the Spirit Halloween Tarot deck. The creator, Vera Petruk, put a huge amount of thought and care into its design. I’ve purchased several Spirit Halloween Tarot Decks over the years for giveaways and gifts because it’s fun, colorful, and so different from a Rider-Waite-Smith style deck. Now that local Spirit Halloween stores are opening, you may be wondering if you should spring for...

2022- The Year of the Lovers

Allison Sasso December 31, 2021 0 Comments

Much like the Chinese Zodiac has an animal (and element) associated with every new year, so too does the tarot. 2022 added together is 6 (2+0+2+2 = 6) and the 6th card in the tarot is the lovers. Sounds sexy, doesn’t it? Everyone is going to be in gross love, right? I’m finally going to find the perfect partner, right Allison? Maybe, but the lovers is much deeper than it appears on the...

Astronomical Samhain Tarot Readings 2021

Allison Sasso November 5, 2021 2 Comments

Did you know Halloween is an astronomical holiday? Today you learned… Halloween, All Hallows Eve, Samhain, is a cross quarter day- a measurable point midway between the equinoxes. We all celebrate the fixed date on October 31st, but the astronomical point usually falls around November 6th or 7th. This only adds to my argument that spooky season should last longer, but I digress… It’s...

2020 Election Projections

Allison Sasso November 6, 2020 0 Comments

Let me just start by saying that my philosophy on tarot readings is that they’re projective, rather than predictive. The cards show where energy is heading, and much like the line from Terminator 2, I believe "there is no fate but what you make for yourself." That being said, my tarot mentor Theresa Reed (The Tarot Lady), has encouraged readers to put their predictions out there. Don’t worry...

Tarot Treks: Knight of Cups

Allison Sasso May 5, 2020 0 Comments

Get a load of the hottie bo-body that is the knight of cups. What do you see when you look into this dreamboat’s eyes? I brought you some coffee…Swoon. Where the pages represent more youthful energies, fresh ideas, messengers, and the beginnings of personal journeys, the knights are already on that journey, and ready for action. Knights are a little undisciplined, even extreme in...

Tarot Treks: Page of Cups

Allison Sasso April 23, 2020 0 Comments

The page of cups is a court card. Court cards are the pages, knights, queens, and kings of each suit and can represent the energy of a situation, people in your life who reflect that energy, or in the case of pages, can be messages or messengers. What do you see as you look at the page of cups? Kiss me you fool! An escapee from a renaissance fair is bemused by the fish in their cup. “Who put...

Tarot Treks: Ten of Cups

Allison Sasso April 20, 2020 0 Comments

Every time I see the ten of cups I hear the song Everything is Awesome by Tegan and Sara (feat. The Lonely Island) from The Lego Movie. You’d be surprised how many people have no idea what I’m talking about when I mention it in readings. If you are one of those people, do yourself a favor and give it a listen. It slaps! The ten of cups is the happy family card! It’s the card I drew...
