On Mother's Day in 2009, 41-year-old Stacey Burns of Wolfboro, NH was found stabbed to death in her bed; nobody has ever been charged with the crime, although the investigation is still active. I have a special tarot spread for these circumstances, the "Whodunit Rogue's Gallery Spread," and decided to put this case through it … Continue reading Who Killed Stacey? – A “Whodunit” Rogue’s Gallery Reading

Straight, No Chaser: A Project-Management Reading
The old-time whisky drinkers in the crowd will get the hint in my title: taking things "straight" in this situation could be a harsh dram to swallow. We have a landscaping project pending at our new home that was stalled last year because of the early onset of winter. Although our grounds are now dry … Continue reading Straight, No Chaser: A Project-Management Reading
What Happened to Mike? – A Pair of Missing Person Spreads
There has been no shortage of missing-person cases in New Hampshire over the last couple of months. The following instance came to my attention when it first surfaced but for some reason I didn't perform a reading at that time. Mike McCain, a 29-year-old Manchester, NH man, has been missing since April 20 and was … Continue reading What Happened to Mike? – A Pair of Missing Person Spreads
What Happened to Adam? – A Missing Person Reading
Early Saturday morning (April 27), 32-year-old Adam Camarato of Eliot, ME went missing in Portsmouth, NH. https://www.wmur.com/article/police-look-for-man-reported-missing-in-portsmouth/27298782 I performed my "World of Hurt" missing-person spread to see what I might learn about his present condition. For a male between 25 and 45, I use the Knights for the "Significator pool," and the first one to … Continue reading What Happened to Adam? – A Missing Person Reading
2020 Democratic Presidential Candidate Roll-up
I've completed all of the readings for the 2020 Democratic Presidential nomination that I intend to do (the rest of the contenders seem too unlikely to bother with), and will now compare the "Grand Quintessence" cards to see who stands out from the pack. Bernie Sanders Grand Quintessence: The Lovers Verdict: He may represent the … Continue reading 2020 Democratic Presidential Candidate Roll-up
Paired-Deck Reading #2: An Old Acquaintance
As I envisioned, the pocket-size Centennial Edition of the RWS "in a tin" is the perfect companion for Pixie's Astounding Lenormand in two-deck readings. The latter was adapted by Edmund Zebrowski from Pamela Colman Smith's artwork, so there is an agreeable consistency in the images, and the size is roughly equivalent. I decided to do … Continue reading Paired-Deck Reading #2: An Old Acquaintance
Donald Trump’s 2020 “Electability Profile” Reading
Since he isn't likely to face a Republican challenger for the Party's nomination, I decided to focus this reading on Trump's chances to win re-election as shown by his current credibility with the same constituencies I used for the Democratic candidates. In broad terms, none of this looks very promising for Mr. Trump, although he … Continue reading Donald Trump’s 2020 “Electability Profile” Reading
What Happened To Samuel? – A Missing Person Reading
UPDATE: Samuel Gray was found dead near railroad tracks in Dover, NH on Thursday morning. There were no further details in the updated news article. https://www.wmur.com/article/dover-police-search-for-missing-62-year-old-with-medical-issues/27093566 Original Post: Dover, NH police are searching for 62-year-old Samuel Gray, who was last seen on April 2, 2019. https://www.wmur.com/article/dover-police-search-for-missing-62-year-old-with-medical-issues/27093566 I performed my "World of Hurt" missing-person spread to … Continue reading What Happened To Samuel? – A Missing Person Reading
Kirsten Gillibrand’s 2020 “Candidate’s Profile” Reading
Sometimes the tarot is so precise it's uncanny. Gillibrand has built her campaign around a number of women's rights issues, and has made a point of identifying herself as a mom. Wouldn't you know that the Empress - the card signifying the Archetypal Mother - appeared twice in the quintessence section, and the Moon - … Continue reading Kirsten Gillibrand’s 2020 “Candidate’s Profile” Reading
Game of Thrones: Who Makes It To The End?
Here is the reading I promised yesterday. The goal was to see which of the remaining Game of Thrones characters that amount to anything are still standing (and still human) at the end of the season. First I shuffled and dealt the ten tarot significator cards into a line (try shuffling ten cards sometime, it … Continue reading Game of Thrones: Who Makes It To The End?
