Just recorded a VERY COOL interview with a podcast I’m a huge fan of! We were originally supposed to record 2 weeks ago, but I got sick. I pulled cards for whether to reschedule. For no, I pulled The Hanged One. For yes, Page of Pents. And here he is again in my daily draw today! TAROT WORKS Y’ALL.

MY BOOK IS BORN 🌈💞🎉 Queer spirituality is revolutionary in a world that demonizes us, but history tells us that queer & trans people have been part of the sacred story from the beginning, and we’re not going anywhere. WE’RE HERE. WE’RE QUEER. AND WE’RE DIVINE. 🌈💖🪽

Y’all I was up till 2am last night finishing the 21-page take-home PDF for my Queer Devotion class because I can’t stop when I’m on a roll and I pathologically over-provide. 😅 MAKE IT WORTH IT, TAKE MY CLASS 🙏🏻🌈💞 You’ll love it, I know you will!!

3. I have hyper flexible thumbs, often (incorrectly) called “double jointed.” It’s a fun party trick that grosses people out every time. ☺️

Today I did drop-in tarot readings at my fave local witch shop for their 10th birthday party, & I earned enough $$ to get a spontaneous flash tattoo from one of my fave tattoo artists, who just happened to be doing flash at the same event.

Sometimes, the universe is good and nice things happen. ☺️

Sometimes the cards are so literal! Yesterday I went to staff fighting class at my martial arts studio for the first time. There were five of us in the beginner class. My card of the day? 5 of Wands. 🤣

Update: I found a note inside one of them. YOUR LOSS, ELLEN.

Quote with a movie poster from the year you turned 18.

Instead of going to senior prom, I wore a prom dress to see this movie in theatres and then got dinner at Taco Bell.

Considering who raised me who could really be surprised at how I turned out

When I open a new jar of raw honey, I like to do a little divination with the swirls on top. What do you see? (My answer in replies) 🍯😜
