Life is interesting isn’t it? At times you feel as if each day is a lifetime in itself. And then at other times you sit down and think wow, where has the year gone? I can’t believe it has been 30 months since I last wrote a blog post! That’s two and a half years. Woah that feels like a long time between posts! Looking back at my blog I am disappointed in myself for letting it fall into such disrepair, this was a real passion of mine, and something I feel I was good at, but life gets in the way sometimes.

As those of you who read my blog when I was consistently posting will know, my workplace was going through some changes when I last posted back in February 2016. And since then life has been hectic to say the least! Don’t get me wrong, some amazing things have happened, like meeting my partner Phillip, travelling with him, learning more about myself as a human being and even juggling both full time work and two full time theatre shows 😊. But overall, taking on the position of Manager at my workplace, and in turn moving into a more stressful full time position has left little time for me to follow my passions. And for that I apologise to you all!

The first year flew by in an instant, however for most of 2017 there was a real niggling feeling somewhere inside me telling me that something was not right! That what was consuming most of my time was not fulfilling my soul. And after much thought on the subject I have decided to recommit to this blog, and to you, my loyal readers 😊. Because throughout the past two years the one constant form of peace in an otherwise unfulfilled day to day, apart from of course my beautiful partner Phillip who fills my life with love and happiness, and my family and friends who are always there when I need them, has been the 78 life changing revelations that are the Tarot Cards. Yes, although my blogging has fallen by the wayside I have still been pulling a card a day, and even doing some readings for Phillip and my family.

So my commitment to you now is that from today forth The Fox and The Otter will no longer be a neglected afterthought, but rather a place where I can once again develop my skills in the Tarot, while hopefully helping those of you who are also learning, with the hopes of one day developing this into a career. My long term goal is to be able to use the skills I am strengthening within myself and blending those with the power of the Tarot to help guide people who may feel lost or simply in need of some guidance and to inspire you all to live a fulfilled life where you, and not the drudgery of the day to day, are in the driver’s seat of your life!

And with that, I am going to leave you with a card to ponder, The Chariot…

Be like the horse in this card, powerful and in control of your life. Don’t let anyone or anything throw the reins around your neck and steer you into something that does not fulfill your soul’s calling. Rather run free into the warming sun and manifest the world you wish to live in ❤️.

Until next time,

Live well xx
