Our Summer Solstice tradition!
✨☀️✨
We make these cookies for summer solstice, but really…you could make these any time of the year! And this recipe is very forgiving- use a little more butter or a little less flour. Add lemon juice or lemon zest or lemon crystals. Add fresh lavender or dried lavender or even a dash of lavender essential oil. They are a bright, sunny, favorite cookie of summertime!

I’m so excited to announce that I’m guest teaching in the Deck Creator’s Mastermind April 22-24!

Are you ready to bring your dream deck into the world? Do you have an idea for a deck that you think will inspire people? Have you been making art for years and want to transform it into an oracle, inspiration, or tarot deck?

If so, then join us April 22-24 for the Deck Creator’s Mastermind with @kialagives. It’s a fun-filled, interactive journey through all the ways you can create, publish, market, and sell an oracle, tarot, affirmation, or inspiration deck that you create from your original idea.

In this cycle, I’ll be teaching alongside @otm_academy and @jamiesawyer_336. I absolutely could not have made the Flow Tarot without the Deck Creator’s Mastermind. It opened up so many possibilities for me as a deck designer!

As a teacher, I will be sharing how I use Photoshop and Procreate to bring my concepts from drawings to print-ready versions. I’ll share tips on how to organize your digital resources; how to edit your art to be crisp and vibrant; how to set up templates, use fonts and bleed lines; and how to best save your art so it’s ready for the printer.

Cycle 6 of the Deck Creator’s Mastermind with @kialagives is open for enrollment! We begin Friday April 22. Use the link in my bio to register!☀️

Day 22 - Secret connections in the cards!

This is one of my favorite things about creating this deck — tucking in hidden meanings in plain view. When I say ‘You are the world in a water drop,” I really do mean it. And the cards say it too!

First image: The falling drop in the Fool card is the actually the dew drop from the World card. In the World card, the sunlight shines in a direct line through it, pointing you to it. In the Fool card, you can see the blurred blade of grass that it has just fallen from, the same one seen clearly in the World card. And so, in the Fool card, the droplet has let go to begin its cycle anew.

Second image: When you flip the Fool card upside down, you can see clearly the reflection of the sunrise in the droplet, the rays of light, including one going straight down the center, the spiky dune grass and the bands of color.

Third image: The shaft of sunlight that goes through the dewdrop in the World card also points to another hidden message. Directly beneath the dewdrop is the only reference to humans in this entire deck. The sun leads the way right to it. “YOU” are the dewdrop in the World card. Which means you are also the droplet that has let go in the Fool card.

This is the idea at the core of this deck, the secret in plain view: Like it says in the Fool card, you are the water drop. You hold all potential in your being. You hold entire worlds within you. And these cards are merely a tool to help you flow in your environment. 💙

22 - The Fool - The World in a Single Drop The F

22 - The Fool - The World in a Single Drop

The Flow Tarot Major Arcana is the journey of a water drop. It is a circular journey, beginning with it’s fall through mid-air in the Fool card, winding all the way back to the World card where we see the drop of dew preparing to fall and start the cycle of flow all over again. It truly is the world in a single drop.

“There is a whole universe inside a single drop of water. It falls freely, moving through air to bring renewing moisture to wherever it may land. It can bring life to new places, and it can nourish life that is already there. It is the single delivery system that can alter entire planets. All in one drop.

Like the drop, you hold all potential in your being. There are entire worlds within you. You do not have to dictate how to fall or where you will land. Just let yourself go. The journey may change you, shape you, but like water, you will not lose who you are. Even if you fall to the deepest depths. Even if you turn to ice. Even if you rise up and become lighter than air and float to the highest clouds.... You are still the same.

This card is a reminder to let go. There are many unknowns. Do not force yourself into being something that you’re not. You are a droplet moving toward a vast network of water that’s already waiting for you. Whatever your next destination is, whatever vessel you might fall into, you will not lose the sense of who you are. It is still there. And when it is time to move from that, you will flow into the next cycle of your life. What are you ready to begin right now? What are you letting go of? What are you falling toward?”

21 - The World: You are Complete

“The spectrum of life on our planet has all the colors of the rainbow. From the green plant life to the crystalline fresh water condensation of dewdrops. From the yellow sands to the cool blue salt water stretching to the horizon. From the purple clouds of the water cycle to the brilliant golden-orange sun watching over it all. This is the whole sum of Earth, the necessary ingredients for life on our planet.

The World card carries a message of wholeness and fulfillment among its sunrise colors. Take a moment. Let the first light of a new day illuminate you. Celebrate how you got here. Look ahead to what’s next. You are in every aspect of this card. You are the beginning and the end. You are the water cycle held in one body. You hold infinite capacities within you.... For spreading unconditional love like the morning dew. For being resilient as the earth, as renewing as the surf. For being as flexible as the clouds, turning salt water to fresh. For finding space for joy, like the life-giving sun. You hold oceans within you.

The World card affirms it: You are complete.”

There is a secret in this card…. Tomorrow I’ll post The Fool Card, and the show hidden imagery connecting the Fool card and the World card in the Flow Tarot. #theworldinawaterdrop

20 - Judgement: The Deep Unknown I always think

20 - Judgement: The Deep Unknown

I always think of this one as the ‘sink or swim’ card. So the perspective in the image is from the swimmer. What are they going to chose?

From the guidebook: “The water is vast and deep. There is solace in the gentle rocking of the waves. But perhaps you’ve floated out too far, and your toes can no longer touch the ground. You are alone with the elements, alone on this journey. And the sun is dipping lower and lower among the waves. You know you will have to take action soon....

The Judgement card calls you to make choices. Are you descending into the depths for further self exploration? Or are you rising to the surface, ready to follow the light toward your goal? While you may be swimming among some deep unknowns in your life, the Judgement card invites you into a deeper knowing. It nudges you to be honest with yourself. Is there really more to explore? Or have you learned all you need to know from these depths?

When the Judgement card appears, it’s a reminder to tune out comparison and trust yourself. It is time do what you’re meant to be doing. Draw strength from this experience, then set out for solid land with a new plan, a new goal, a new outlook. What are the deep unknowns surrounding you at this moment? What steps will bringer you closer to new shores?”
