Today's random #tarot card from the Druid Craft Tarot deck is The Magician.
The Magician stands among standing stones, his wand held aloft and symbols of the four tarot suits lain out in front of him.
If this card appears in a reading, it's about taking control. You have it in you.
If it appears in the Thoughts/ Decisions row then it's about exerting your willpower to get your way in plans.
If it appears in the Feelings and Emotions row then it can mean there are times to make it clear what you want out of a relationship, whether that is with a loved one or just a friendship.
If it appears in the Physical and Material world row then it can mean a time to make bold financial decisions. Look at all the evidence avaliable (as represented by the symbols of the 4 suits) and make your mind up!

Today's random #tarot card from the Druid Craft Tarot deck is the King of Wands.
The King sits on his outdoors throne, shield by his side and staff/wand in his hand.
If this card appears in a reading then it can mean it's a time for action. A good time to get stuff done.
If it appears in the Thoughts/ Decisions row then it can mean make decisions quickly and by yourself. Take the lead.
If it appears in the Feelings and Emotions row then don't wait for friends or loved ones to make plans to meet up; do it yourself. If everyone waits for everyone else, nothing will get done.
If it appears in the Physical and Material world row then it's a good time to get stuff done at home or to make financial decisions.

Today's random #tarot card from the Druid Craft Tarot deck is the Eight of Swords.
A woman stands tied and blindfolded, with eight Swords around her stuck into the ground.
When this card appears in a reading I take it to mean that problems may seem insurmountable, but that is far from the case. The swords are not a threat, their tips in the ground.
If the card appears in the Thoughts/ Decisions row then it can mean that you need to see past problems; they are not necessarily as bad as appears.
If the card appears in the Feelings and Emotions row then it can mean that, while it may feel that some people are against you, their focus isn't necessarily on you.
If the card appears in the Physical and Material world row then it can mean that obstacles to a good home life can be overcome. There is a path. Ask for help.

Today's random #tarot card from the Druid Craft Tarot deck is The World.
A naked woman stands above the world surrounded by vines and the symbols of the four suits.
This card can indicate completion, fulfillment or things paying off.
If the card appears in the Thoughts/ Decisions row then either it means a fulfilling work or project. If not then it's a good time to look for one.
If the card appears in the Feelings and Emotions row then it can represent a feeling of happiness in your relationships, or a good time to think about making relationship plans.
If the card appears in the Physical and Material world row then it can mean financial security or stability and a time to think about long term goals.

Some Barbara for your timeline. From the Aztecs 1964. Sometimes my favourite 1st Doctor story. Sometimes it's the Keys of Marinus, sometimes the Romans.

Mike Pence is an example of toxic Christianity. We should have freedom of religion, yes, but we must also ensure freedom *from* religion. Your religious freedoms don’t give you the right to deny freedoms or civic participation to others. Period.

These two maps are a good example how data visualization influences our perception. Same election, same results, but one shows the winning party by area, one by population density. (Map Credits: Karim Douïeb, Jetpack.ai)

I feel like Neighbours should have to wait fifteen years, with a one off TV movie at the midway point, before coming back, like a normal show would.

A wilderness YEAR? Singular? Bah, they didn't even get a chance to produce a Neighbours; The New Adventures series of novels.

Today's random #tarot card from the Druid Craft Tarot deck is the Four of Cups.
A young man gazes wistfully from a tree with 3 cups before him and one behind.
When this card comes up in a reading then I take it to mean that someone is being left out.
If it appears in the Thoughts/ Decisions row then it can mean that someone is not being involved in the discussions of plans. Look around you for who you haven't consulted.
If it appears in the Feelings and Emotions row then it can mean that someone needs your time more than those you are spending time on.
If it appears in the Physical and Material world row that can mean you have let a job be put back for long enough. Get your house into order.

The James Webb telescope giving us more universal joy. The site always includes some great info on the object. Plus, this alt text to the image is just delightful:
"An hourglass shaped cloud of material burst out from the bright center, with the orange, semi-opaque gas cloud on top and orange fading to a bright semi-opaque blue gas cloud on the bottom, all against a black sky speckled with white dots."
