october blessings & november readings

Eight of Pentacles

Hello, everyone! I hope the closing of Libra season is finding you well.

It’s been a busy, busy fall over here, with lots of fabulous design clients. I feel I owe everyone a more thoughtful missive asap, but in the meantime I wanted to let you know that my calendar is now open for November divination bookings! My availability as a working mum is tight, but I’m pleased to be able to open some select spots and hope to add some more by the end of the year. Hit reply with any questions!

So many of you have joined me after listening to (or watching!) Death and Scorpio: Do You Guys Ever Think About Dying? on my dear friend Kira Ryberg’s incredible podcast, Threads of Fate! For those who haven’t checked it out yet, Kira and I discuss the association between Scorpio and the Tarot’s Death card, and dig into the visual history of the Tarot and how we get the Major Arcana’s astrological associations in the first place. We also talk about the tension and differences between Mars and Saturn as malefics and the value of interrogating your divinatory symbolism. Catch the episode on YouTube or wherever you listen to your podcasts. I’d love to hear what you think!

I hope you’re staying cozy, and if I don’t meet you before then, I hope you have the happiest of Halloweens.

All the best,
Ash 🍃
