I was born and raised on the Jersey shore, where I enjoyed a life of sun and surf.  I was always aware of the fact that I was a “tad different” then most of the kids that I hung around with, when I would challenge them on their thoughts or tell them what they were thinking.  I was promptly labeled “freak.”  LOL.  At 16, I began watching the soap opera Dark Shadows and was fascinated with the character Magda the Gypsy and her skills as a card reader.  Of course, I knew these were fake readings for the script, but I became intrigued with the cards that were being used.  Once I got enough money together (in those days, a tarot deck cost about $10.00), I bought two decks; a Swiss IJJ and a Rider-Waite Smith.  I quickly put aside the Swiss and concentrated on the Rider-Waite-Smith and started a notebook with my thoughts on the cards because trying to read the Little White Book, you needed a magnifying glass.  Once I started, I never looked back.  That was 40 years ago.

O-M-G by Ginny Hunt

I know you know at least one. I know you’ve probably even been one at some point, though it may be embarrassing to admit. At least once and probably many more times you have made that proverbial mountain out of a molehill. You Drama King/Queen! It’s ok, really. I have a side that inclines toward the dramatic. Ok, maybe more than a side. A whole flank of my being perhaps. Enough that a friend of mine, who also relishes the fair amount of drama sprinkled through out her life, will call me out, “O! M! G! You’re being so drama!” At least we recognize it in ourselves and can laugh at it when it rears its entertaining head. This fact makes us decidedly not Drama Queens. The true Drama King or Queen does not accept the fact that he or she is being ridiculously melodramatic nor do they seem aware that they are consistently creating situations that result in exhausting drama for themselves and others. So my friend and I were talking last night when she wondered aloud, “Which tarot card would represent drama?” We had been discussing the Moon card and the dramatic side to that card and the question made us both stop, mid-convo, and mentally rifle through the deck. At first we were rather nonplussed. I said the Fool and Moon combination would make me think “drama” but I wasn’t satisfied with my answer. We continued our conversation and somehow the Ten of Swords was mentioned and she interjected, “There is the drama card!” I laughed, “Oh yeah! For sure!” Talk about over the top, that card screams “Woe is meeeeeee!”(read the full post)
