I've been gone for quite a long time...
As much as I'd like to say, 'This is it, I'll never let a day go by without making any post here,' I am tempered by my personal history.
So I'll just keep it simple: I'm back.
On January 1, I drew a card while pondering the kind of energy that will influence me the most in 2012.
I got The Wheel.
The Wheel carries with it the fundamentals of change -- it can happen anytime, and you would be wise to roll with it with an open mind and a heart that's ready for lack or abundance.
As I've been through some tough times in the past couple of years, this card tells me that times are changing and I'll be in for many pleasant surprises in 2012.
True enough, things have started rolling pretty well.
I also drew a card on Lunar New Year - Jan. 23. I drew the Queen of Cups. Will tackle that next time...

I took a loooong break. But I'm back.
I just did a 5-card reading for a new acquaintance at MySpace, whose identity will remain anonymous. Well I guess I could at least say her given name, Sara.
Here goes the e-mail I've just sent her:
Hi Sara!
In a 5-card reading using The Celtic Tarot Deck, your First Card, which represents the dominant Situation in your life now, is the Knave of Pentacles.
* Are you feeling restless because you think you've got to be elsewhere doing something that you love to do?
* Are you reluctant to take a good offer because you just couldn't stop thinking of the things that could go wrong once you make a decision to take that offer?
* Do you feel that you're being deprived of something?
The Second Card standing for the Challenges and Opportunities that you may be facing right now is the King of Pentacles.
(Interestingly, the first two cards look like father and son, or the young and the old, or the student and the master. It does seem that you are challenged in the area of preparedness over something.)
* Have you been feeling discouraged or indecisive over something?
* Is there a field in your life where you feel incompetent?
Your Third Card is The Fool. This is The Advice I've drawn from the cards.
The advice means -- I'll be straightforward -- Just go for it.
Do not be afraid to make mistakes. If something's too good to be true, it is wise to be cautious; but that is not to say that you should shy away from it without investigating further. It may just be the break that you've been waiting for. So take action. Grab the chance.
Your Fourth Card is The Ten of Wands. It is your Daily Lesson Card.
If there's anything that you should learn today, it is that you need to be less critical of yourself.
You may have been taking on so many responsibilities. Naturally, not everything is going perfectly well.
Learn to say no if you have to. The road ahead is not exactly paved and smooth, and the fact that you have a lot over shoulders is not making life breezy.
The least you can do is be kinder to yourself even if it means giving others a thumbs down sign.
Finally, your Fifth Card or The Near Future Card, is the Knight of Wands.
While hesitation and second thoughts clouded the first part of this reading, the outcome seems to say that there's a wild adventure waiting for you a few days down the road. If you loosen up and believe in your skills, you may just get there even sooner.

Some of my friends openly told me they are usually afraid of looking at the images in the Tarot cards.
Horrible, sinister and ghastly are only some of the words that these friends commonly associate with the Tarot images

Every now and then, I'd ask my Celtic Tarot cards for a "Card of the Day." That's my alternative for a full 11-card Celtic reading whenever I'm too tired or too (cosmically) disoriented for a much more comprehensive card spread.
Today, I ask for a Card of the Day and the Five of Wands showed up

In the preceeding post, I said I'd post here how my friend gave a feedback on my Celtic reading for her.
Since I sent my reading via e-mail, she had the opportunity of reading it several times. There are messages she readily understood and related to her life at once. But there are messages that proved true after a few days
