So, I have been toying with the idea of opening a shop for a while. Not so unusual for a stay-at-home mom... until you find out what I want to sell.
"Psychic readings". Shocker, right???
(I put psychic readings in quotations because I am obviously not psychic. You don't need to be to read cards and stones. You need intuition, which I have in spades.)
Sadly, my tarot cards have gone missing. Once I get a new deck, I will open my shop. I'll have a few different layouts for both cards and rune stones.
Before anyone starts naysaying, I have done readings before, with good results. This is not something I just randomly got into. I have practiced for a while, and am quite skilled at it.
My sincere hope is for customers who are open-minded, and not just looking to disprove my skills. Good luck to me! :)

Googling Worry
Everyone reading this obviously knows what Google is. You know how it works and how easy it is to find out answers instantly. The problem is, you can find ANY answer instantly, and some misinformation as well.
As a new mom, I get sucked into the black hole that is Google almost every day. It doesn't matter what I search for, there is always at least one terrifying article. Most recently, I searched for baby mobiles, and got 3 articles on how they overstimulate babies instead of relax them. It goes on to say that overstimulated babies are prone to crankiness as well as health problems later in life. Wtf.
It's not just baby stuff, though. It's news, and propaganda, comments, and randomness. Go ahead and look up something cute, like puppies.Bet you will get some cute articles, but also at least one about a puppy being burned alive. Two points: what the hell is the world coming to, and why report it?? Why make an article about something so heartless that we can't fix? (I am an animal lover, it kills me to see them suffer and not be able to save them.)
The world is full of fear and hate, and it's all at our fingertips. All it takes is a few keystrokes, and negativity flashes before our eyes. I'm sorry this turned into a mini rant, but I'd like to leave you with a thought: are you part of the cure, or the disease? Do you spread hate and anger, or love? One person may not change much, but you can start a movement.
