My publisher, Llewellyn Worldwide, kindly gave me the chance to sound off today on a couple of my favorite subjects. The articles appear in The Llewellyn Journal and on their blog, Llewellyn Unbound.

Backwards Tarot: Stop Memorizing and Just Read Your Plain Old Life - a statement of my tarot philosophy in a nutshell, including a bunch of thought experiments you can do as you read. Also, why you don’t need the Little White Book (no offense to my hardworking friends who write them).

Tarot Spells: Make Magic From Your Card of the Day - a short blog piece on how to turn your humdrum daily pull into a magical powerhouse. (I myself do this practice every day - if you look closely you can see the spell on my home page image.)
