The Wandering Moon Tarot
I first saw this minimalistic black and white deck whilst watching Scorched Earth Tarot on YouTube. Having seen only a few cards, I paused the video and went in search of it.

Even though it was published in 2014 it is only a new addition to my collection, albeit one I’m really glad to have added. The Chakra Wisdom Oracle Deck As the…

According to Mind Space, “Mindfulness is the quality of being present and fully engaged with whatever we’re doing at the moment — free from distraction or judgment, and aware of our thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them.” Sounds like a pretty good place to be to me. I believe there are two powerful tools we can use to strengthen our awareness: meditation and journaling. Both strategies have numerous benefits.
