Get WILD! Veronica style

VeronicaVeronica is my evil twin and Tarot reading superstar! She’s been spending her Summer scoping out hot, gay dudes on the beach (because the only straight dudes seem to be soft, pasty dads) and reading all sorts of low-brow smut. Just the kind of woman you want to take advice from!

The Empress is your classic nature-slut who loves the wild, untamed rivers, dense forests and tangly unkempt gardens and she’s hear to say this:

“You’ve been keeping yourself pruned and domesticated for far too long…and it’s high time you went wild!”

For those of you whose idea of “wild” is smashing beer bottles on your head or getting groped at one of those Cancun foam parties…think again.

True wildness happens when you just let things go. You stop maintaining things, letting nature take it’s course. No efforting involved.

Like not mowing your lawn for a year or going braless at a farmer’s market.

Embracing your wildness lets you appreciate who you really are and best of all, it pisses lots of people off – reason enough for me!

So this weekend, how will YOU let yourself go wild? And don’t say “going braless at a farmer’s market” because that’s my idea.

The Empress (Thursday) ~ Nurture Your Creativity!

the empress
Intuitive Tarot by Cilla Conway

The Empress encourages you to engage your nurturing qualities today – particularly when it comes to nurturing your creative ideas and dreams.

If you have been feeling uninspired lately, ask yourself how can I nurture and care for my creative self?  When you totally ignore your creative, imaginative side, it will shrivel into oblivion.

In the book The Artist’s Way, Julia Cameron talks about scheduling an artist’s date each week, where you do something to inspire creativity, like visit a museum or go see an artsy fartsy film. Personally, swinging on the swings at the playground down the street works for me!

But if you treat your creativity as a regular part of your life and not just something you can engage with when everything else is done, you will never find yourself creatively blocked again 🙂
