Where Are You?

Posted on January 23, 2019 by Annette Lanniee

Monday morning I was working in the kitchen and happened to look out the side window to see one of my Rhode Island Reds watching me through the fence; her head was doing the bob almost as if she were trying to see if I was really in there. I can hear her now, "I … Continue reading Where Are You?

Rauhnacht for January⠀ This year I participated in the Rauhnacht reads for 2020. ⠀ ⠀ The rauhnacht is done during the 12 nights of Christmas - in the @worldduvinationassociation we used December 24th through January 5th. ⠀ ⠀ Included in the read is an animal 'card' for a set theme and then three cards (system of your choice) to forecast the month.⠀ ⠀ I decided to use Ceccoli Oracle and Pixies Oustanding Lenormand for the forecast.⠀ ⠀ January's animal is the Stag - What is holding me back?⠀ ⠀ N°1 Vigilance. Being sure of the real situation once all the drama is stripped away. Watch and wait. ⠀ ⠀ What's holding me back is I am comfortable just watching; there needs to be some action. ⠀ ⠀ January's forecast: tree + lily + fish⠀ ⠀ An unhealthy contentment about prosperity i.e. I am too 'comfortable' and it has become unhealthy. ⠀ ⠀ Looks like I'll be rocking the boat this month! ⠀ ⠀ If you are a reader, give this a go; if youd like to see your January, let me know ... I'll share here. 😄⠀ ⠀ #lenormandcards #oraclecard #lenormandreader #ceccolioracle #lenormandreadersofinstagram #rauhnächt #rauhnächt2020⠀ #lenormand #cartomancy #cardreading #oraclereading #oracledeck #fortuneteller
The Game of Hope (GoH); if you havent played the game, I recommend you do so - it's appropriate for all ages. ⠀ ⠀ There several excellent ways to interpret a Grand Tableau (GT) though the GoH techniques are my absolute favorite. If you play the game, you'll have a better understanding of how movement happens within the spread. ⠀ ⠀ And the best part of this method is you don't have to decide on a question - it is perfect for the year in advance. ⠀ ⠀ What's your favorite GT method? Do tell!⠀ ⠀ #gameofhopelenormand #grandtableau #grandtableaulenormand #lenormandcards #theprimallenormand #pollyssunsetlenormand #fortuneteller #lenormand #cartomancy #fortunetelling #divination #lenormandspread #lenormandreadersofinstagram
While waiting to.draw my first rauhnacht, I decided to make a rum cake. . . Yum! . . #
One of my must-dos when traveling is visiting older cemetarys. The one pictured here was waaay off the road and marked by a tiny green sign along the side of the road. . Sweeping oaks with the moss hanging low, gravestones and crypts partially sunken, slowly being reclaimed by the earth. . Cemetarys have never frightened me - at 5 years of age I announced that I didn't want to take a nap and ran from my parents. I hid in the graveyard that was close by and returned home when I realized the dead person probably didn't appreciate my sitting on them. . Every cemetary has a different feel. One close to home makes me feel like I have arrived to a party underdressed and they all stop to turn and look at me! 🤣 . In another, I'll take the local paper and read the news outloud. I can hear the laughter at some stories and the gasps of 'OMG' from others. . None of my family are buried close by so I tend to the graves of others. . Do you visit graveyards? . . #cemetaryshots #cemetarywandering #cemetariesofinstagram #graveyardphotographs #taphophilia #grave_gallery #graveyard_dead #cemetary_shots
An impromptu trip to the beach for some Gulf water (Yemaya's been insistant). . We stumbled upon this drum circle serenading the setting sun but didn't get to stay as the skeeters were horrible. . I miss the Gulf! . #gulfofmexico #yemaya #drumcircle
