July Obscure Sorrows Tarot Challenge

For all of July, I’ve been taking part in La Reine de L’air‘s Obscure Sorrows Tarot Challenge on Tumblr and Instagram.  It has been very eye-opening to say the least!  I was approaching it from a detached place at first because I wasn’t quite ready to dive right in to Shadow Work for the Summer but as it has been progressing, the sunny Summer is getting pretty shadowy!

A Trip To North Georgia

Since I chime in on the Q the A podcast from time to time, I thought it would an appropriate Q the A field trip to one of Georgia’s mysterious landmarks: the Georgia Guidestones.  I asked if Eon K. Grissom and his lovely (pregnant) wife would accompany my boyfriend (Eon’s wife’s brother) and I to the Guidestones for a fun trip a couple of hours north to which they totally agreed!  While I was looking up further info on the Guidestones – who am I kidding, I was on Tumblr – I saw a post about a tree that owns itself in Athens, Georgia, which I figured we could see on the way back from the Guidestones.

Star of the Magi Spread for July 12 – 18, 2015

This is my first time doing the Star of the Magi Spread. I had seen it on Seven Card Spread and fell in love with the layout but I hesitated using it because I’m not a projections kinda fan. I save my Daily Draws (if I do them) for the evening so that I can reflect on the day instead of focus on energies that may or may not manifest according to which cards I pull. I will pull them early if I’m called to but those days are very few and far between. Somehow, I felt like my Fountain deck was calling me to engage it in this beautiful spread on July 12 and I’m so glad I did it! It was quite beautiful and I left it out on the coffee table for me to look at while I get ready for work the next morning!

Welcome!

Hello everyone and welcome to my new little blog home: Balance These Scales!  I’m always so awkward about  introductions but here I go anyway!

My name is Katzi.  I’m a Video Editor and Motion Graphics Artist by day and by night, I’m a crafter, wanderer, TV-watcher (I like to call that “research”), and a tarot reader!  My journey into tarot has been very strange, I think.
