HOW is it already April? I don’t even know where March went, you guys. What did I even do?? It was a blur. The good news is I’ve been loving a ton of stuff this month, so there are a lot of faves!
This month was for settling into our new Wisconsin home, making big plans, and… putting in my notice at my day job! I’ll probably be doing a post soon on how and why I decided to quit, since I’ve never been one of those “quit your day job” people, but for now I’m tying up loose ends and preparing for my new full-time freelance life. If you need a freelance writer/editor or tarot reader, I’m your gal 😉

Websites I’m Reading
Author Mark Pannebecker is working on a really cool project – 21 novellas, each one based on the Major Arcana of the tarot! The Magician involves motorcycles and mischief – perfect for fans of Sons of Anarchy. Check it out!
Foxs Lane is a blog that’s basically about my dream life – a family of organic farmers growing their own crops and tending the land. Love!
Decks I’m Using
The Pagan Otherworlds tarot arrived this month and I am in LOVE. Smitten. Hardcore crushin’. Check this one out, you guys.
The Ostara Tarot* is being re-released this month! I’m SO excited. I’ve been admiring pictures of this deck forEVER and soon it will be mine!!
Zoe, the creator of one of my all-time faves the Sacred Wild oracle, has created a second oracle deck! The Sacred Soul Searching oracle is available now. Goooo get it! Mine is in the mail!
Books I’m Loving (I talked about these on my Instagram stories a while back, are we friends there? <3)
This month I’ve been reading Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner* by Scott Cunningham. I’m sort of in a spiritual revamp at the moment and I wanted to learn a little more about Wicca to expand my horizons. I know EVERYONE has already read this book, but I’m really enjoying it – it’s way more flexible than I expected!
I’m also reading Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants*. So far it’s a lovely book about humans’ relationship with the earth, what it can teach us, and our responsibility to care for it.
The Essential Oil Truth Second Edition: the Facts Without the Hype* is an amazing book about how essential oils are made and how they work. I learned so much about the process and what to look for in a brand!
Pretty Etsy Finds
I ADORE everything in this shop. I purchased one of her moonstone necklaces and it’s so gorgeous and high-quality. Highly recommend!
Labradorite is my crystal crush this month. Loving these wands!
Other Miscellaneous Faves
As you may know from my Instagram, this month I signed up to be a Young Living distributor! <3 I love these oils and I’m so excited to be getting more involved with the company. I’ll do a blog post soon on why I chose Young Living, but in the meantime if you want any oils, I’m you gal! If you order the Premium Starter Kit (a hella good deal, it’s only $160 for SO much stuff) through my link here, I’ll be your sponsor and will be here to help you with any questions you have at any time.
I’ll also send you a copy of French Aromatherapy* and a bottle of the Grounding blend (my fave) as a thank-you! If you’re interested in the business side of Young Living, I can also give you access to several Facebook groups that are packed with resources on how to go about it. Basically it’s a big party and you’re invited!!
Anyway, I’m off to Milwaukee for the night to eat some cheese and drink some local beerz. I hope you’re having an amazing weekend full of delicious foods and things you like! <3
Seriously, where DID March go? It’s crazy!
This is all such great stuff! The Tarot arcana novellas sound like a dreaaaammmm. Love that! Almost makes me want to start sharpening my very rusty fiction-writing skills again. Congrats on the move to full-time freelance – so happy for you! :*
Right? I’ve tried incorporating tarot into my creative writing before but never quite got there :/
Thank you for the congrats! 😀 Looking forward to having some more free time! <3
