“I know in my heart of hearts that I cannot help but do the best reading possible. I know in my soul that I cannot live without giving someone the gift of my love. I cannot survive a life without a spirited desire to share my heart.”
Just so you all know, I’m going to slowly be shifting this blog towards more of a Tarot focus where I can explore my personal and professional journey with it, share it with others, and post readings for the Week, or Month, or whatever to help guide whoever wants it. I’m going to convert this blog because its address already matches my Tarot business name. My other one does not.
If Tarot isn’t your thing, I will not be offended if you would prefer to unsubscribe. At DaSpinstaLife I will still be posting anything I find interesting as I have done here, and you are welcome to subscribe to it instead if you wish. That blog has an MidLifie theme but since my midlife is still juvenile as fuck, there’s still plenty to see lol!!!!!

A worthy cause!!!! This blog educates about mental illness and health, supports those of us challenged by it, and works to remove the stigma and unfamiliarity of others with it! People are scared most of what they don’t know. Bipolar Writer seeks and works hard to correct this!
If you have been following my blog, you know that I have been working since November of 2017 on my memoir. All the money donated since that time has been put into a fund to pay the artist that is creating a cover so I can self-publish. Every cent that I have is going for that purpose.

Grandfather Tree
wonderful way to start my morning, Thank you to Cheryl Mary Coleman for providing!
This poem is about an Australian eucalyptus gum tree that I call Grandfather Tree. I live but a stones throw away and am greeted each morning by the sun rising through the limbs of this great tree as it peeps over our garden wall.
This magnificent old tree (which must be at least 200 years of age) is all that is left in our immediate area of the Gnangara Forest. This is being slowly cleared and decimated to allow for homes like ours, which is extremely sad. The tree is now a focal point of the local park surrounded by a small area of natural bush, where families gather to play and walk their dogs.
Whilst walking my black Labrador Jet, around the park he darted off into the bush, and so following him under the canopy of the trees arrived at the huge base of Grandfather Tree. I decided to sit…

Marital Rape
Image courtesy of survivornotavictim.com
How would you conjure the image of rape? Being pulled into some dark place, held against your will and forced upon, used and discarded by some stranger?
Except here, you are being violated in your home, forced and used by the husband who promised to love, honour and cherish you.
Sadly, this is marital rape.
Marital rape is considered a form of domestic violence and sexual abuse. Although, historically, sexual intercourse within marriage was regarded as a right of spouses, engaging in the act without the spouse’s consent is now widely recognized by law and society as a wrong and as a crime.

Marital rape with violence and threats is real, illegal and not defined by colour. This should not be allowed to continue. Mind-sets need to change. A wife is not a chattel, but a life partner and often, the mother of…

“I allow the information I need
to come to my senses by
paying attention to
what is before me.
I see that the world gives me
whatever is needed if I simply
open my eyes and ears.
The world is giving me constant feedback
on the thoughts I hold in my mind.
It provides clues to where
I might find what I am looking for.
I pause. I listen. I follow my heart.
Grandmother, guide me with
the star-bright song of
your timeless way.
I seek to bring
plenty to my people.”

Leadership
“Being in charge means making decisions, no matter how unpleasant. If it’s broke, fix it . . . you cannot let the mission suffer, or make the majority pay to spare the feelings of an individual.”
-Colin L. Powell, My American Journey
Predicting the Future
“Predicting the Future? When people consult me, it’s not that I’m
reading the future; I am guessing at the
future. The future belongs to [a Higher
Being], and it is only he who reveals it,
under extraordinary circumstances.
How do I guess at the future? Based on
the omens of the present. The secret is
here in the present. If you pay attention to
the present, you can improve upon it.
And if you improve on the present,
what comes later will also be better.”
~ The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
