Why you should stop being so nice all the time…

Housewives Tarot

Do you notice how the “bad boys” get all the love?

And how the nice guys in their pastel turtleneck sweaters fail to set your loins aflame?

What if James Bond became an insurance salesman and stopping killing people and leaping across rooftops?

You would need to re-cast someone else in your sex fantasies.

And if you think this only applies to men and not women your dead wrong. Guys love bitches!

Remember Betty and Veronica? Betty was nice, considerate and…..had no worshipers falling at her feet, unlike Veronica, the mean, cold, selfish one.

So don’t be afraid to be a bit of a dick today. Be a little bit dangerous. Complain about your lukewarm soup! Refuse to donate to that boring charity! Sneer at all the cute boys you see today!

Whatever you do, just don’t be nice, for God’s sake!

Leisure is not a four letter C word!

International Woman of Leisure by day, whipcracking Tarot Reader by night! Veronica is my evil twin and she took a quick break from eating bon bons to write you this tidbit of tasty advice….so take it!

Morgan Greer Tarot

Here’s the deal. Leisure is not a four letter C word. In fact, it’s a seven letter L word. Kind of like “love” but so, so much better.

I’m going to be balls to the wall honest with you…I am a woman of leisure.

I don’t just love reading filthy “romance” novels on the beach, sipping spiked hot chocolate on a lazy rainy day and napping through a yoga class – I fight tooth and nail to make these activities a substantial part of my day.

Some women look down their nose at me for this because deep down they fear that the rapidly fraying social fabric will suddenly split if they stop whizzing around aimlessly in minivans and washing duvet covers and stuff….while simultaneously wishing that it would!

Leisure time has become so taboo in our crap “culture” that admitting to spending an entire afternoon watching incense smoke curl in the sunlight while birds chirp is the quickest way to get kicked out of book club.

So here’s a tip. Take more leisure time. Be a rebel. But say your “meditating” – this is the kind of shit monks and nuns have been pulling for centuries!

How to conduct yourself at social gatherings

veronica 2Veronica is my evil twin/alter ego and queen of Tarot. She has everything I don’t….copious cleavage, hordes of boy toys trailing after her and a hankering for day drinking. The only thing I have in common with her is we both write about Tarot for this blog!

Dame Darcy Tarot

Have you ever found yourself at a dinner party, seated next to someone who just won’t shut the fuck up?

You sit there all polite and quiet, listening to them drone on and on about their gluten sensitivity and talented grandchildren….

All the while resenting every minute and frantically looking for an escape. But they are not your jailer. Your misplaced sense of politeness is.

Then, after an evening of storing up all your anger, you get home to your loving spouse and viciously tear into him for leaving a dirty fork on the counter!

Here’s the thing – your politeness is like money, it isn’t limitless. So don’t go squandering all your nicey niceness on boring people who suck. Save it for those who matter.

Turning tricks and getting treats!

veronica 2

Veronica is my fun-loving evil twin. She spends her days swanning about her apartment, painting nude men and writing about Tarot. Her readings are blunt and tasteless…yet oddly helpful. Basically, she just wants to slap the crap out of you with her Tarot cards! Now let’s get to today’s reading…

Hezicos Tarot

Happy Halloween! Today’s card is The Devil – a very fitting card for this time of year!

The Devil is the most famous trickster of all – he’s always cutting bad deals and seductively whispering in your ear like a sleazy salesman.

He’s come up today because you are being tricked!

You think something will have a fabulous payout – like hard work – but it won’t.

Are you one of the many whose gotten caught up in the bullshit idea that if you work hard, save for retirement and ignore your dreams then you can stay safe and sound?

I don’t think you are….but sometimes the lure of cubicle work, blockbuster movies and microwaved dinners can be strangely seductive. But it’s a trick…with no treat.

Or are you one of the unfortunates who think if I’m not a bitch, people will like me?

Well, they won’t! I know because I’ve tried it. They will still reject you. So be a bitch. Don’t put safety first.

And don’t get hypnotized by sparkly danglies like low-interest credit cards, pensions or status upgrades – these things will enslave you and slowly eat your soul, or something like that!

When breaking the no-nudity policy is a must

veronica 2Veronica is my evil Tarot reading twin. When she isn’t writing for this blog she’s strutting about naked in semi public places (see below for details), traveling to exotic locales for fresh man meat and taking it easy on her black leather chaise lounger with a blood colored martini in hand! That’s right – she’s baaaad to the bone!

Here’s a true story that’s really tragic and sad….

I once went to a women’s only spa in London that had a no nudity rule. They even made me sign a form promising I would keep my bathing suit on.

I would have cried bloody murder but I’d just spend over an hour on the London underground, taking the most convoluted and confusing route ever.

But a spa with a no nudity policy? That’s like going to a restaurant and not being allowed to eat. Or like going to an art museum and not being allowed to touch any of the paintings. Absurd!

So with hate in my heart, I put my bathing suit on. But when I was in the darkened steam room and no one was around….I totally flashed my boob!

The Hierophant is about rules – stupid rules that only exist to control people and don’t actually serve any real purpose. But it is also about finding delicious and creative ways to break those rules and claim sovereignty.

What bullshit rules will you be breaking this weekend? Tell me all the deets in the comments below….

Silence….the most beautiful sound of all?

veronica 2Veronica is my evil twin/alter ego and queen of Tarot. She loves breaking rules, saying “NO!” to those gross food samples at Costco and waking up at 10am on a Thursday knowing she’s got NOTHING on the agenda for the day! Here’s her take on the Four of Swords…

Housewives Tarot

Guess what time it is? Spa time!

You’ve been working your hands to the bone, burning the candle at both ends and maybe even smiling at people you hate and laughing at crap that’s not even funny, just to appear agreeable.

Time to nip that shit in the bud and start living life like it was meant to be lived…..Veronica style!

You’re in need of some serious downtime, where you can relax, unwind, and enjoy the sound of people not talking.

You might need to leave your home to experience this – go to the spa or book a session in one of those infrared saunas. Nothing beats being totally naked and sweaty inside a hot box with psychedelic lighting and nature music.

Or, if you choose to stay home, draw the blinds, dim the lights, toss some sliced cukes on your eyeballs and enjoy the inward journey to YOU!

Tell me (in the comments below)…..how will you unwind and chill this weekend?

Kinky or lazy? You decide!

Dame Darcy Mermaid Tarot

Does being tied up and blindfolded actually turn you on? Or are you just looking for a good excuse not to do anything today?

The Eight of Swords is all about lying to yourself that your hands are tied and you have no choice, because you don’t really want to be powerful right now. It just feels a little too….difficult.

I hear you! Living your dreams and transforming the planet is kind of exhausting at times. But guess what?

You didn’t come here to watch Vampire Diaries re-runs, munch banana-caramel-crunch-chocolate bars and buy stuff on Amazon.

Oh, wait. That’s what I did all day yesterday. Let me rephrase that.

You didn’t come here to only do those things. You are capable of so much more. So untie those wimpy ropes that represent bullshit excuses and lift that blindfold so you can see things clearly – you’ve got places to be!

Tell me (in the comments below)…..what non-lazy thing will you be doing this weekend?

Team Players are Creepy

VeronicaAfter a two week hedonistic vacation, my evil twin Veronica is back!

knight of cups

When someone says “I’m a team player!” I immediate mistrust them.

Why?

Because “team player” is corporate slang for achieving success by climbing on the backs of others without them even knowing it! Ha!

And also because the term “team player” is just creepy. It makes me think of flourescent lighting, MJB coffee, crying in a public bathroom, and selling my soul for $12 and hour. Just an experience I once had.

What does all this have to do with the Knight of Cups? Let me tell you….

The Knight of Cups is not to be trusted. He’s a sneaky little bugger who will charm your panties off only to try to sell you Amway products or protein powder. Don’t fall into his sticky, sugary trap!

Others may present themselves to you in a highly appealing manner. Enjoy the show, but don’t get sucked in. It’s all a performance.

And for goodness sakes, don’t “invest” your money into anyone’s dreams or schemes (except your own) today.

A Good Reason to Stay Off Facebook Today

VeronicaVeronica is my evil twin and….she’s still on vacay! That lazy slut. So I went digging in the Veronica archives and tried to pick a good one for you…..

Housewives Tarot

Happy Friday! The Page of Cups is a sneaky little twerp and he is here with a very specific message just for you:

“I know you sometimes get depressed when you go on Facebook and see that everyone seems to be having a better time than you. But don’t be fooled. Most of those people are totally miserable. Party on!”

Gosh, what a strange thing for him to just say out of the blue. Oh well, that’s the Page of Cups for you!

Have some fun this weekend by focusing on doing silly, unproductive things – like finger-painting, collecting rocks on the beach, googling dirty words, rolling around naked in a pile of mud – you know, the usual “inner child” stuff.

The more fun you have, the less you will resent those assholes on Facebook for pretending to be having the time of their lives 24-7.

In the comments below tell me what silly things you have planned this weekend…

Before you set some dumb goal…read THIS!

VeronicaMy evil twin Veronica is on vacation this week and while she’s probably getting day-drunk on a beach somewhere, I am forced to recycle this old reading she did way back in January. But I thought the message was important – one worth hearing again!

the burden
Osho Zen Tarot

You know what? You don’t have to set any more fucking goals from now on.

You don’t have to become your “best self” or improve or aim higher.

Leave that shit to Tony Robbins.

You’re good just the way you are.

Do you feel a weight lifting off your shoulders now? Do you feel a little less exhausted?

That’s because goals and dreams can drag you down. Oh sure, at first they seem to lift you up – just like cocaine.

You feel all zippy when you paste together your vision board. You’re overcome by that heady assumption that the universe is your bitch and you can just order shit up like at a drive thru.

But then time passes and realization hits you – your vision board is nothing but a shit festival of broken dreams – a beautiful pictographic representation of all the things you’ve failed to achieve this year.

So give yourself a break! Enjoy the NOW. Scrap all your goal books and dreamboards and all other future-oriented crapolla. Your perfect as you are right now.

Your welcome.

And this reminds me of a video I saw the other day….
