Sierra Lamar

Sierra Lamar disappeared, instead of boarding the bus to go to school, one day last week. Her cell phone was found yesterday in a nearby field, but no Sierra. Her scent, and known whereabouts, go cold at the end of her driveway, where she should have gotton on the bus. I will see what the cards can tell me.

The Celtic Cross begins with the Devil, reversed, crossed by the nine of swords. The Devil represents masculine energy, and masculine entrapment of some sort, and the nine of wands represents apprehension and fear. I think this young lady may have had a stalker, or someone openly making threats, and I think the situation worried her. At the base, we have the three of wands, reversed. Someone had clearly brushed off any reasons to take precautions, and had told her not to worry. Upright, this card tells of people working together on new projects; this time, I think it tells of people not listening and paying attention when they should. The King of Pentacles is in the recent past. He is an older, dark complected man who cares about Sierra. The card telling of his future involvement is the seven of pentacles, which is hard work followed by reward. He will do anything it takes to find Sierra. A possibility is Strength, reversed. Already, the investigation has been mildly derailed, somehow. A clue has been left in the wrong place, and has sent searchers in the wrong direction.

The King of cups, reversed, in the place of Sierra's fears. This is an older male who is not honest, and possibly uses or sells illegal drugs. Temperance is in the place of Sierra's environment, telling us that Sierra has every intention of helping in the cause of getting herself found. The Star is in the place of her hopes. She will be open to any creative idea that she thinks will work in order to become free. Another male is in the picture, the Knight of Swords, reversed. He is violent, and time is of the essence. I am hoping that the King of Pentacles will find an incentive that will speak to him. I will follow this up in a couple of days if Sierra is not found.

More impressions: This was not in the reading, but just something I sense: Sierra's phone was thrown away about twenty miles away from where she actually is right now. I think she has heard at least one broadcast featuring her mother's pleas for her return. I also do not think she is very far from home. The location where the cell phone was tossed was deliberately chosen to throw off investigators and delay finding Sierra.

Tarot Reading For Samantha Koenig

Samantha Koenig, eighteen, of Alaska was last seen on February 1. Surveillance from her job at a coffee shop shows her exiting the building with a male stranger, and beyond that, no one knows her whereabouts. Her missing persons poster and picture are posted below, and I will see what I can find out from the Tarot. Here is the most recent report.

The reading starts with the eight of swords, reversed, crossed by the five of swords. Already, this does not look encouraging. The eight of swords is a card of either being or feeling trapped. Reversed, it is the opposite, becoming "untrapped", or disentangled. But in Samantha's case, it is crossed by the five of swords, a card of revenge and violence, so it looks like she did not want to remain "trapped", or captive, fought, and lost. The five of swords is someone inflicting violence at her. This ios founded by the four of pentacles, which tells us she was holding onto something material, either money or a resource. In the very recent past, we have the Magician, who is a man who knows what he is doing and in this case, how to get what he wants from Samantha. The next card, crowning this matter, gives me some hope that Samantha might yet be found alive. It is the four of cups, reversed, and it means that Samantha should be looking for any oppotunity she can to contact her family. In Taoism, four is a number that represents family, and so far, two "fours" have come up in this reading. I think the four of pentacles and the reserve it represents was Samantha protecting either someone in her family, or someone she regards as family. The four of cups represents the best thing that can happen today, which is Samantha reuniting with her family. Next, we have the King of cups, who is soon to enter the situation. He is an older man who is kindly disposed toward Samantha and will try to find her.

In the place of fears we have the seven of cups, which is a vivid imagination, but not much reality. Someone connected to this has some unrealistic expectations about this. For environment, the ten of swords appears, which worries me a bit. The ten of swords sometimes indicates violence, and always indicates an end to something.......generally not a pleasant end. The Star is reversed in the place of hopes, which shows a lot of pessimism on the part of someone who knows where to find Samantha. This, too, worries me. The reading ends with the four of swords.......the third "four" in this reading. This four is a card of rest, and I hope Samantha can be found after the dust from her disappearance settles.

What Happened To Ava Enlow

Recently, a story aired on Nancy Grace about a two year old girl named Ava Enlow. The mother, Athena Manuma, dropped Ava off for a couple of days with the father, Brent Anderson. When she came to pick her daughter up, the whole house had been vacated; in fact, it had been foreclosed upon. Brent had not given Athena any indication of any of this before disappearing with their child. Police in Arizona are now looking for both the father and daughter.

This readin begins with the five of wands, crossed by the seven of pentacles. The five of wands indicates games, trickery, and half-truths. The seven indicates a planned and worked-for harvest. This tells me that this event was planned. The Knight of Pentacles is in the background, and in this case, I think this knight represents slow but steady progress toward a goal....the goal in this case being the custodial kidnapping of Ava.

In recent recent events, we have the King of Swords. This is a man involved with law enforcement or the application of law, and as he appears upright, I will assume that he has Ava's best interests at heart. His role in this matter is to undo the trickery with which the reading begins. The best that can come of all this is the Emporer, reversed, and he is a weak and unsatisfactory father figure. This almost speaks for itself, but I will spell it out: the very best thing that can happen is the apprehension of Ava's father. The nine of pentacles is in the near future, and I think there is a good chance that Ava will be found and returned home.

The six of cups describes the mental state of the man who took Ava. He has not considered the fact that Ava will grow up, and is only seeing her as an infant, and as a bargaining chip to use against Ava's mother. Their surroundings are the eight of wands, which is a journey through impossible odds. Also, as cups often symbolize West and wands are South, it's possible that Ava is "eight" to the south, or southwest. Ava's father is already afraid that this whole venture will not work out, as illustrated by the Wheel of Fortune reversed in the place of his fears, and the reading ends with the Fool. The Fool is a card of opportunities for everyone involved, and in this case, I think he is telling us that Ava's dad makes a silly mistake somewhere along the line and gets caught. I hope Ava is found safe.

Revisit To Jonbenet Ramsey's Case

An article about Jonbenet Ramsey was posted on the internet this morning, and since I have never done a reading about it, and the case was never solved, I decided to see what the cards would say. The reading is a Celtic Cross reading, and the question is "What happened to Jonbenet?"

The basis is the Knight of Swords crossed by the Queen of Swords. This Knight refers to violence, and often a violent death. He is crossed by the Queen of Swords, which tells me that the act was committed by a woman. The reversed ace of cups gives us a basis for the Queen's actions, and it tells us that the Queen was unhappy with all of the new opportunities that the victim enjoyed, and that the stress had become a burden, somehow, but the burden was more emotional than practical. The Sun is the passing reality, and this was Jonbenet's talent and future. The eight of cups reversed is what the Queen of Swords was seeking in her action, and reversed, this card simply means feasting and partying to one's heart's content. I think the Queen wanted to return to a life that did not include Jonbenet. The King of Swords is the next card. As he is not reversed, I think he may not be the one who did the deed, so to speak, but he knows more than he has told us. In fact, I was surprised by the presence of the King, Queen, and Knight of Swords in this reading, and the clarity of the symbolism was one of the reasons I wanted to share it.

In the place of the perpetrator's fears, we have the Empress. The Empress is the ultimate mother figure, and I interpret this to mean that the Queen had very negative feelings about having to parent, rather then having childlike opportunities in life. The card representing the home environment is the six of swords, which is a card of travel. The Queen of Swords did not always stay in one place, neither did any evidence. The Star comes up in the place of hopes. I really think this Queen did not see Jonbenet as a person in her own right, with a life and a future! I think the Queen somehow thought her actions were justified! The reading ends with the ten of cups, reversed. Upside right, the ten of cups points to a healthy family environment and a happy marriage, upside, it says the opposite. Which is very telling.

How Did Little Samuel Jones Get Into The Well

I usually wait for law enforcement to draw their own conclusions after a missing child has been found, but four year old Samuel Jones, of Carlsbad, New Mexico, was reported missing on Saturday night, and found early Sunday morning in an abandoned well near his home, and no one knows how he got there. Here's my reading, in an attempt to find answers.

This begins with the three of cups crossed by the eight of pentacles. Eight is a number that often coincides with apprenticeship, and deliberate effort, and the eight of pentacles is a card of skills and apprenticeship. It crosses the three, here, so I will assume that this little boy was happy up until the moment this happened. I am inclined to think he was lured, rather deliberately, by someone older than himself, and someone who saw some sort of "opportunity" in this. This is founded by the ace of swords, meaning opportunity was open. This opportunity was followed by the two of swords, reversed, which I think was hesitation on Samuel's part before he became trapped. Suddenly, the whole situation went completely wrong. This is crowned by the eight of cups, reversed. He died expecting to be rescued, knowing that he matters to those around him. The next card bothers me; it is the Moon, reversed. This tells me that this was not truly an accident, and that someone is also lying and concealing the truth about this matter.

The Magician comes up reversed in the place of negative intentions, and I think a man who knew what he was doing had some sort of agenda in this. This card is followed by the two of wands, reversed, in the place of environs, which tells me that he had at least one accomplice. The two of pentacles appears in the place of hopes, and that refers to communications; this person does not want an actual account of what happened to become known. This is concluded with the page of swords, which speaks of spying, or communication by remote, or the internet. This is also a person who is younger than the Magician, and more adept with social media and the internet.

Where Is Ayla Reynolds

I got a request for another reading for Ayla Reynolds. I did one in December of last year. I was sincerely hoping that Ayla would be found by now. After considering the best line of question for the Tarot, I decided to simply ask where Ayla could be found.

This reading begins with the Queen of Wands crossed by the Emperor. I am very inclined to interpret this as being involvement of Ayla's father, (Emperor) and an adult female that is not her mother. Situationally, the background is the Devil, which means bondage and inability to work with a situation. This is what life had become for Ayla, even as a toddler. Also, I think violence has played a role, but I have thought that every since I did the first reading. The next card describing what has passed is the Knight of Wands, which I think is an event, here, rather than a person. I think this card is telling us that Ayla is "gone", as knights often represent coming and going, and the suit of wands is associated with fire, so fire may have played a role in covering the tracks of whoever made Ayla disappear. The two of wands comes up in the place of things that may happen. This is a card of plans and partners, and here, it tells of accomplices.......so at least two people know where Ayla is; one male and one female. Next, comes the nine of swords. This card signifies worry and sleepless nights.

At the bottom of the staff, we have the Star, reversed. Lack of inspiration....lack of honesty. This is followed by the nine of cups, turning up in the place of environment. Ayla's hiding place was hastily chosen, water, single family dwellings, and the number nine play a role or are landmarks, somehow.  The Queen of Swords is another player here, she would seek to control the information and communication. As she comes up reversed, she does not have Ayla's best interest at heart. The reading concludes with the two of pentacles, reversed. This tells me that the Queen of Swords will not have her way, and eventaully, communication and information about Ayla's whereabouts will come to light.

We have three players, here; one male and two female.

Disturbing Story About A Fake Psychic

Stories like this disturb me. Nancy Annette Marks, of the Kansas City area, actually took advantage of another person's ebbs in life, to the tune of thousands of dollars. Someone who was looking for suggestions and creative advice successfully got her fears and superstitions played upon, instead. And the client probably didn't even get the advice she sought!

Two things really stand out, here. First of all, one reading; or in some cases that are heavily laden with circumstances and factors, two or three readings, should be enough. A client should not need multiple readings for the same question.....especially over a period of years. If a psychic is doing large numbers of readings for the same question, and unable to deliver an answer, either the psychic has gotton an answer that the client does not want, or the psychic has not really gotton an answer. Either way, this is unsettling. Second; no psychic should ever play on another person's fears. Nancy Annette Marks actually told a woman that she was "cursed", (I'll bet she wasn't!) and that paying her (Ms. Marks) large sums of money would somehow "protect" the woman from the "curse"! No psychic should ever play on someone's fears. It just isn't nice.

Another disturbing factor in Nancy Annette Marks's career is the message a that client could buy his or her way out of life's circumstances; specifically, that if clients paid her a certain amount, evil spirits would look eleswhere for "victims". Or that circumstances in life are caused by "evil spirits". (the "evil spirits" idea is gonna have to be a whole other post.......at a different time; I doubt if Marks would recognize ANY spirit, even if it bit her posterior protrusion!) When she found people who were vulnerable enough to play her game, she would take advantage of them financially, encouraging them to believe they could somehow buy their way out of their own choices in life and individual fates. This is unethical, dishonest, and wrong, wrong, wrong.  Here is a quote from the above linked article, from KCTV; "The session actually ended by her convincing me that I had a curse on me and some evil spirit that was brought on my family and me when I was little and it's gonna stick around and not ever let me have peace in my life and be passed to my children.".......This was said by one of Marks's former clients. If any psychic, psychologist, minister, or doctor ever says something like that, it's time to move on.

One More Question About Kyron Horman

Several days ago, someone posted a question about the Kyron Horman case, after this post. I decided to go ahead and do a reading for the question, "was anyone in the school involed in Kyron's disappearance?", and post it here.

This begins with the five of cups, reversed, crossed by the ace of wands. The five of cups reversed tells me that no one is "crying over spilled milk", so to speak, and that the general effort of the school has been to cut any losses, especially in the way of image, and brush as much of this situation under the rug as possible. It is crossed by the ace of wands, which is a card of new beginnings and opportunities, and I determine this to mean that actions that could have helped locate Kyron in the beginning were not taken. This is based by the Queen of Cups. Somewhere, somehow, a sensitive, intuitive woman is involved, and also was involved with Kyron before he disappeared. The seven of pentacles appears reversed, in yet another reading, as the impetus of energy and reason behind all of this, and when this card is reversed it has to do with hard, and with hard work not paying off. So someone either lost an investment or wasted an effort. Next, in the realm of possibilties, is the ten of pentacles, which is a payoff, inheritance, or an unearned asset or a gift. This card, too, has been involved in a lot of readings about Kyron. The next card is also interesting; it is the Knight of Pentacles. He is focused on work, and eventual progress toward a goal. Knights can also mean movement and travel, but I think in this reading, he is a person. Also, I think there is a very good chance that he is the person who experienced the loss indicated by the reversed seven of pentacles.

At the beginning of the staff, we have the World, reversed, reminding us that Kyron has not been found, even though many feel that he has been sought almost everywhere. Surroundings and home environment for Kyron is the seven of wands, which means that wherever Kyron is, he is, at the moment, still well hidden and guarded. It's interesting that seven continues to come up as a significant number and clue as to Kyron's whereabouts. It's almost as if no one can go inside, and no one can come out. Hoped for is Temperance......we have someone hoping for a peaceful and healthy resolution to this, and Judgement is the final outcome. I am glad to see Judgement in this position, because it is well past time for this case to get sorted out and for Kyron to come home.

This reading did not leave me 100% sure that someone employed at Kyron's school was involved, but it did indicate that an adult female with whom Kyron was well aquainted was involved. The man.....if he works at the school, he may be someone whose employment had been terminated. Or someone who had lost a material asset because of something involving the school. Another thing this reading says about the school involves data recovery........it is a shame that phone calls had not been logged and no one had kept track of visitors. This is main fault found by this reading concerning the school. Five of cups, upright or reversed, deals with loss, (seeing it reversed makes me more hopeful for Kyron's eventual return, though) and seeing this card crossed by a card of opportunity, such as the ace of wands, tells me that precious time and opportunity to recover Kyron were lost by the school.

Robyn Gardner

The question I asked was "what happened to Robyn Gardner, and where is she?" This is the answer I got. It begins with the Page of Pentacles, reversed, crossed by the Magician. To me, this looks as if Robyn was experiencing a lull, either in school or her career, and was looking for someone who could fix it for her.....the Magician. It it based by the six of cups, telling me that Robyn branched out into some unkown territory. An event in the recent past is the Hanged Man, which is a sacrifice, or a period of suspension. It is an interesting card to see in this spot, as it makes me wonder if Robyn disappeared of her own free will. Another possible interpretation is that Robyn accepted and invitation or a gift that was somehow significant in this situation.

Crowning this, in possible outcomes, is the Empress. Could Robyn have been pregnant? If so, could this have possibly played a role in her disappearance? The card telling of things that WILL happen is the ace of pentacles. This tells of a financial opportunity stemming from Robyn's disappearance. Plainly and simply. But it has not materialized yet.

Temperance reversed is in the place of Robyn's thoughts. This could be a bad combination between friends and associates, but I really feel that it is telling us of alcohol or drug abuse. Even if it only happened on one occasion, it somehow played a role. Strength is the card telling of the opinions of others. Others are still looking for Robyn. The two of wands comes up in the place of hopes and fears; this tells me that she had somehow planned this with someone else, whether things went according to plan or not. The last card, the final outcome, is the High Priestess, reversed. Interesting. The High Priestess is all about secrets, yet she fall reversed. This means that Robyn will, one day, be found. Sometimes, the High Priestess can indicate a place named after a Goddess or a female saint. Sometimes, water is connected to this card.

Going back to the Magician.....a man who knew exactly what he was doing was involved in this. Money was the reason. A waiting game is being played right now, on the bet that time will somehow temper, or cover his tracks, wherever they lead.

What Happened To Amir Jennings?

I did a reading for eighteen month old Amir Jennings, whose grandmother reported him missing from South Carolina before Christmas. She also reported Amir's mom, Zinah Jennings missing; however, Zinah turned up on Christmas Eve in a minor fender bender, but without her son. She has not been helpful at all in the search for him, and has given about four different stories concerning his whereabouts.

The first card is the High Priestess, telling us that we definately have a mystery on our hands. And it's a mystery involving the feminine influence. This is crossed by Temperance. I think that this tells us that the root of the problem was that being a mature woman, and blending, or tempering, all aspects of her life, with education, work demands, and motherhood was simply too challenging for Zinah. This is based by the eight of pentacles reversed. Eight of Pentacles is the card of the apprentice, and symbolizes a job that one has trained for. But the card is reversed, so it means the exact opposite in this reading. At some point, Zinah lost an opportunity because she could not balence the responsibilities of parenting against the demands of the work world. Energies flowing into the past are the Sun, also reversed. This tells me that the lost opprtunity should only have been a minor setback. The best we can expect now is the two of pentacles, telling us that communication is going to be a real problem. And enter the Knight of Wands, reversed, into the picture, right about now. Usually, this card upside down is a jealous, vindictive man, but knights often fortell the coming or going of a matter, too, so in this case, I think it means that little Amir is not going anywhere. I think he is somewhere close to where his mother was on the last day he and she were seen together. I do not think he travelled far, at all.

In the place of feelings, we have the eight of cups, reversed. In the environment, there is the Knight of Swords, reversed. That combination sends a disturbing message. The Knight of Swords reversed is a violent card, and sometimes warns of violent death, and in such a case, I should not see the reversed eight of pentacles, heralding happiness, in the place of feelings. This is a bit mixed up, but this is where the cards fell. Next, in the place of hopes and fears, the seven of pentacles came up, reversed. Once again, this is a clear message of a conflict between motherhood and working for a living. I really think this baby is missing because his mother was frustrated by lack of childcare at times when she had to study or work. How sad. The final card is the ace of wands, reversed. This does not make me feel very hopeful for little Amir. Also, I think getting the truth out of Amir's mom is going to be a big challenge.

One more note about the presence of the High Priestess here: the truth lies in the feminine influence. Also, I do not think there were any accomplices.

Ayla Reynolds

Ayla Reynolds, a toddler from Maine, has been missing since December 17. The reading I did was to answer the questions of what happened to her, and how would she be found. Ayla was staying with her father at the time of her disappearance, and he states that when he got up on the morning of December 17, she was missing from her bedroom. The reading starts with the Sun, reversed, crossed by the five of wands. Ayla's presence was welcomed enough, it seems, but not exactly what those around her wanted. The five of wands represents some sort of game, or trickery, almost from the beginning of this whole situation, before little Ayla went missing. This is based by the Page of cups. The Page of Cups here tells of news of a birth. And the message fading into the background is the seven of cups, the card of illusions and false notions. This reiterates the message of the base of the reading, expectations not being met, somehow, and deception being an option, for some reason, before this child even moved in with her father.

The very best thing we will all hear about this in terms of resolution is the Knight of Swords, reversed. I am not particularly pleased to see this card here, but not surprised. While I hope and pray for the best in all this, this Knight, especially reversed, warns of anger, violence, and sometimes violent death. The next card is the eight of swords, telling us of something that WILL take place. This is a card of restriction. Wherever this baby has been hidden, someone is keeping her whereabouts from becoming known. It gives me a little bit of hope that Ayla might be found alive. Just a little.

The six of pentacles has come up in the place of the feelings of the perpetrator. I was not expecting to see this card here, and I find it curious. It clearly refers to a financial reward, and I think it has to do with the reward offered for Ayla's return. Apparently, this has made an impression on someone. The next card, in the place of home environment, and opinions of family and friends, is the Hermit, reversed. The Hermit is like Diogenes, always searching for an honest man; and, quite frankly, finding him here, reversed, in the place of family is discouraging. It means that the people who lived with this little girl are not looking for her. In the place of hopes, we have the ace of wands, reversed. In addition to not looking for Ayla, someone is also not hoping that she will be found and returned to her mother. This sounds very harsh, but this is what the cards are saying. The final outcome is the two of cups. This is a card of partnerships. I believe that Ayla will be found by the efforts of more than one person or organization working together, and possibly in two days or two weeks. The two of cups may also refer to a significant other of someone who had access to Ayla.

Closer examination of same reading: The sun draws energy and objects into orbit around itself. In this reading, it is reversed. It is crossed by the five of wands. I think the very center of the house from which Ayla disappeared needs to be checked very carefully for clues.

Petition To Stop Kentucky Teacher From Stuffing Kids In Duffle Bags

This has nothing to do with divination or Tarot, but please look at this petition and sign it. Earlier this month, a little boy with a disability on the autism spectrum was stuffed into a duffle bag by his teacher and placed in the hallway. The link to the petition, drawn up by Lydia Brown, is here: http://www.change.org/petitions/end-abuse-of-autistic-students-in-mercer-county-kentucky

If we do not look long and hard at the way we teach and bring up our children, the world will only become less peaceful.

Seasons Greetings

Wassail

Wassail.......from the old English, "be thou hail", is the tradition from which we get "caroling" door to door during the Winter Holidays. Prechristian Europeans had two different traditions in connection to Wassail; the first was to share some of the cider with the trees in orchards, to encourage a good harvest in the following seasons, and the second involved everyone in the household stirring the cider as it simmered, while "praying", if you will, to the Gods and Ancestors, meditating on wishes for the upcoming year. Then, of course, it would be time to go "wassail" the neighbors, sharing cider with them.

Here's a recipe for Wassail:

2 quarts of apple cider

2 cups of orange juice

1/2 cup of lemon juice

12 whole cloves

1 pinch ground ginger

1 pinch ground nutmeg

2 cinnamon sticks

*optional; 1 quart white wine

*not optional; wishes and prayers stirred in

Simmer all of the ingredients together in a large pot, while stirring, meditating on your wishes for the upcoming seasons. Drink up, sharing with everyone in sight. This year, my hopes stirred into the Wassail will be for all of the people for whom I have done readings on this blog. Blessed Be.

Wassail, shared with all of you. My heartfelt wishes and prayers are for happy resolution to everyone for whom I have shared readings on this blog. Solstice Greetings.

Request For An Update For Kyron Horman

Someone recently requested a new reading for Kyron Horman, who disappeared from his school in Portland Oregon in June of 2010. It is heartbreaking that he has still not been found. I cannot claim complete accuracy in interpretations of any type of divination, as I learn new things every day concerning this art, but I can tell everyone one thing: every single reading I have done for Kyron since he has been missing has indicated that there is still hope of finding him alive. I know that contradicts what a few others have stated, but my readings all show Kyron experiencing the ups and downs of everyday life.......in other words, still with us.

The reading I did deals with the questions of why Kyron is still missing at this late date and how can he come home. This is what I got: The four of cups is crossed by the seven of cups. Four and seven have been signicant numbers in readings for Kyron ever since this happened, and here they are again. Four is also a number representing family in Taoism, and in the same tradition, seven represents learning and sometimes schools. It seems pretty obvious that this takes us back to look at family and school one more time. Also, the four of cups speaks to lack of appreciation for what one has, and the seven tells of delusions and unrealistic ideas. I think that somehow, the truth is just not good enough for someone, and that some ideas that are truly not the case have been purported.

This is based by the Hanged Man, reversed. Upright, this card represents sacrifice for the greater good. Reversed, it means refusal to make sacrifices. Immediately in the past we have the seven of pentacles, which is harvesting your crops, or benefitting from your work efforts. Someone involved in this felt that his or her work efforts should not be shared, and became selfish. The eight of pentacles reversed comes up in the place of things that could happen, but have not. Reversed, this card tells of an apprenticeship cut short, or a career abruptly ended. This applies personally to someone involved. Something that WILL happen is the two of swords, reversed. I have seen that card in prior readings about Kyron, but upright. Upright, it means stalemate, quite clearly. Reversed, it tells of energy finally tipping the balence, one direction or the other. In this case, someone has been relying on the stalemate to keep matters secret, but this will end.

The Knight of Wands reversed comes up in the place of fears and physical limitations. This is jealous, impulsive, male energy, or an actual not-so-nice male presence. The card describing home environment, and sometimes the opinions of others is Temperance, reversed. This is a bad combination. the message here is that jealousy and impulse have lent a hand to a situation that has the wrong elements combined. Also, the knight reversed could represent a fear that this will not end, and that the situation is going nowhere, as knights upright often mean travel or movement. The next card, in the place of hopes, is the King of Wands. He is a family man, often married, and as an upright card, represents someone whose help is hoped for by someone involved in this. The final outcome is the nine of swords, reversed. This card speaks of worry and problems to be overcome, but reversed, the worries are temporary. Kyron still needs to be found.

Bianca Jones

What happened to Bianca Jones, the little girl who was reported missing this past Friday, when her dad reported that he had been carjacked, and his infant daughter kidnapped in the carjacked vehicle? I did a reading, and I hope and pray that this little girl is found today.

The situation is described by Tarot as the ten of wands crossed by the four of pentacles. The ten of wands usually tells of a string of problems, or hassles, to be more accurate, finally coming to an end. The four of pentacles is the witholding of resources, usually money but sometimes other things, such as information. So we have an end of a series of hassles crossed by a withholding of something dear and important. The background of the situation is the nine of pentacles. Here, I interpret this to be a woman who provided Bianca with a stable home. But in the recent past, we have the King of Wands. This, I interpret to be the dad, as he is the last person known to have had Bianca in his care. Wands and pentacles are different suits, so the message seems pretty clear.......the maternal influence provided more stability, and the more recent paternal influence was more daring, and possibly creative and fun, but not as stable. In the place of likely outcome, I see the truth finally told with a certain amount of relief following lots of worry (the nine of swords, reversed) and in the very near future, the High Priestess appears. I think this means.....and I do hope I am right.....that the information witheld at the beginning of this reading is finally given by the appropriate person.

In the place of fears, I have the Knight of Cups, reversed. This is a young man who does not speak the truth. In the place of environment, I have the Queen of Wands, reversed. This can be a jealous feminine influence, or an actual jealous, lying woman. I will not be surprised to hear of a female accomplice, or a female accomplice after the fact, now that this card has come up. In the place of hopes, we have the ten of swords, which means destruction. It can occasionally point to death, but as it comes up in a place of hopes or fears, I think it represents the speculations and fears of the media and the public. It could also, very easily, represent what the reversed Knight of Cups is afraid we will find. The last card is the two of pentacles, which is communication. Communication continues to be a problem, as it is intercepted and blocked, somehow. This person has a facade, as well as someone covering for him.

Somehow, the High Priestess seems to be the key card in this reading. She represents mysteries and the truth, the unknown truth, coming to light. Water....Churches.....Imagination......Subconcious.......Secrecy.....Dreams......

Update after thinking about this reading: nothing about this reading includes transportation or a vehicle, or even moving physically from one place to another. It is my opinion that this child did not disappear as the result of a carjacking. The ten of wands speaks to the end of problems, and the four of pentacles speaks to payment or resources witheld. This child is somewhere close to her father's home. I hope she is found today.

Who Hid Lisa Irwin And Where Is She?

In the fallout of all the the latest attempt to find Lisa Irwin, who went missing from Kansas City, Missouri on October 4 of this year, I did a Celtic Cross reading with my own question to see what the Tarot would tell me. My question was "Who hid Lisa Irwin, and where is she?"

The first cards were the eight of cups, reversed, crossed by the ten of wands. Reversed, the eight of cups means rejoicing and relief. This is crossed by the ten of wands, which carries a similar message...the finish of a struggle. My take on it is this: someone directly involved in Lisa's life was interested in the fun and merriment parts of life to the point of imbalence. The next card, in the place of background for all of this is the Devil, telling me that the responsibilities of parenting were found to be in conflict with other pursuits. Someone here felt very restricted, and became resentful. The event drifting into the past is the Chariot, reversed. This could represent anything from situation that had shut down and was "going nowhere" to an actual car that isn't running. Another thing that I think the Cards are telling us is that Lisa did not travel too far from her home on the night of October 4. Wherever she is, she is close. This is crowned by the nine of cups. The very best that can come out of this is that Lisa's family can become more supportive in efforts to find her.........but I have said that from the beginning! Also, I find myself very inclined to think that the nine of cups is telling us that Lisa can be found close to her home. The near future contains the King of Cups, reversed. This is a dishonest male who knows how to twist the truth and play on the emotions of others. I hate to see him in this position, but I'm afraid he is a factor, here.

Lisa's surroundings consist of the seven of cups. This is illusion, delusion, and sometimes the belief in a deception. The next card, describing the involvement of other people in Lisa's concealment, is the nine of swords, reversed. This could mean anything from worry on the part of the guilty party(s) to an actual physical location or object........such as 9 of "swords"= '99 cutlass........sometimes, it is helpful to actually be physically in the location and see what's there. The Queen of Swords, reversed, is in the place of fears. There is a woman who is perceived to be stalling the investigation. Communication and the law are involved here. The last card is the Page of Swords. This is a young person, and I believe this person has a tip or a clue that will help find Lisa. Until then, I will be praying for Lisa and her brothers.

Michelle Parker

I did a Celtic Cross reading to find out what happened to Michelle Parker and why she went missing. She is a mom of three, who went missing last month from Florida. Her courtship with the father of her children has been contentious, and they appeared on "People's Court", in a dispute over an engagement ring.

The basis of the matter was Temperance, reversed, crossed by the Lovers. This message seems pretty obvious......a bad combination of ingredients, but still combined, anyway. This is based by the five of wands, indicating deception, trickery, and games. From this, I gather that the police have already heard untruths from someone. In the recent past, the eight of swords came up, indicating that one or both parties not only felt trapped, but was trapped in the relationship. The very best possible outcome here is the seven of pentacles, which deals in reaping what is sown. I interpret this to mean that the efforts to find this young woman will, one day, pay off. It may happen as a result of a search. The devil shows up as a factor that will come into play in the future. In this instance, he represents more bondage for one or both parties to this relationship and situation. The Devil also represents bondage and "being trapped" on mundane levels, so it is possible that instead of being discarded in a manner that a stranger would discard a victim, Michelle is behind lock and key somewhere on private property, for which a search warrent would be required in order to carry out a search. Either way, this is NOT the work of a stranger.

The Wheel of Fortune came up in the place of the fears of the person responsible for Michelle's disappearance. This person feels lucky, as if riding in the currents of a good cycle. The surrounding environment is the ace of wands, reversed. This means that there will be no new beginnings for this relationship, and fire may have played a role in the coverup of evidence. In the place of hopes, the Hermit came up, reversed. Someone is hoping that searches for Michelle will end, emptyhanded. The final outcome is the ace of swords, telling me that all of this will come to light, possibly with the help of testimony or a tip.

Afterthought: this reading ended with the ace of swords, and the suits of swords is associated with the element of Air, which rules communication. It is quite possible that cell phones and cell phone pings will help solve this crime. One more possibility; I feel strongly that the reversed Hermit represents an older, male accomplice in this woman's disappearance. There were at least two people involved.

What Happened To Sky Metalwala?

The question was actually "What happened to Sky Metalwala and where is he?", and I did a Celtic Cross in attempt to answer that question. It start with the Magician, crossed by the seven of swords. This tells me that someone with good intentions and a certain level of skill in some area experienced the obstacle of not being truly able to achieve, or fully achieve the goal in question. That's an unusual beginning to a reading such as this, but lets see where this goes.

This is founded by the Knight of pentacles reversed. This is a man in his mid twenties to possibly early forties. He is someone who quietly works toward a goal, without much fanfare, but when the card falls reversed, it indicates a man who isn't doing all he can to be productive, and has allowed too many details to go unattended. The next card, representing the influences that have very recently passed, is the Queen of Pentacles. This is usually a woman who can manage finances and material assets well, but here, I think this is someone who was trying to assist in the management of dysfunctional family politics that was generated by Sky's family. She could also be someone connected more directly to Sky's disappearance.......I am simply not getting the impression that she is Sky's mother. The best that can come out of it is Death, reversed, and this is a card of stagnation when reversed. Don't expect the family to learn any new negotition skills. Something that will happen is Judgement, reversed. I do not like to see this card falling reversed in this position; it tells me that there will be no positive changes any time soon. It shows that any legal decisions made will not favor anyone involved, and it does not bode well for Sky, either. But never give up.

At the beginning of the Staff, we have the Hermit in the place of self. I take this to mean that the community is diligently searching for Sky. In the place of Sky's "environment", the four of wands came up. This is a card of happiness and contentment, often connected to family. But coming up in this position, I am forced to wonder if it refers to physical location, instead of the perceptions of others. Could it refer to a park, where people go for recreation and fun? The tower, reversed is in the place of hopes and expectations, and this tells me that someone involved in this does not want to go with any of the changes imposed by the situation. And the final outcome is the Knight of Wands. This card often tells of a move, or a change in circumstances. If the card referes to a person, it is generally a man in his late twenties to early forties, who moves quickly and has a lot of energy. Since this card also has an association with travel, that should certainly be a consideration here. This may also represent the person who brings Sky home. In short, it looks as if Sky disappeared because his parents were unable to resolve conflicts. I do not see a stranger in the mix anywhere; tarot is not always interpreted with 100% accuracy, but I still believe that this did not happen as a random act.

Update To Excellent Use Of Talent

Several days ago, I posted a video depicting Kyron Horman, who disappeared from Skyline Elemetary in Portland Oregon, in June of 2010, when he was seven years old. The video showed the viewer how subtle changes, such as hairstyle, and natural maturity could change a child's appearance. Quite a few people got a chance to see it. The creator of the video got a lot of positive grateful feedback, but; sadly, he also got some disturbing feedback, and as a result, decided to take it down. So while the video is no longer available, there are still pictures of young Kyron in my sidebar, and I encourage everyone to have a look at them.

Psychics and readers are very good at helping the general public think "outside of the box" and use imagination and visualization to recognize that which is not readily seen or that which is deliberately hidden. But at the same time, pictures work even faster. That is why I included that video on this site. While the video was taken down, I still think there is lots of hope that Kyron will be found one day, and I still encourage everyone to pray and keep their eyes open.

Excellent Use Of Talent

Here is a video explaining how Kyron Horman would look quite different now than he did on June 4, 2010, when he disappeared from his school, Skyline Elemetary, in Portland, Oregon. I want everyone to get a good look at it. Once again, thankyou, Jonathan; you are SO talented!

Why Did Aliyah Lunsford Disappear?

I have intended to do a reading for Aliyah Lunsford, three years old, for a long time, as she has been missing since September 24, but somehow, the right question just did not present itself until today. It really "felt" better to ask "why", rather than "how", or "where", which are questions I usually ask when I do a reading for a missing person.

I did a Celtic Cross reading, and the basis is the ten of cups, reversed, crossed by the five of cups, pointing to the past. This tells me that everything a family should have offered a little girl was not offered, or given to Aliyah, for some reason. The five of cups tells of unrealized potential in this situation, and unappreciated blessings. It could also mean a return, or something or someone missing finally being found, but I do not think so, here. This is very sad.

Founding this, we have Justice, reversed. Legal matters were somehow not in this little girl's favor, even as early as age three. While social services may have had a hand in this reference to the law, I really think it was more a personal matter, between Aliyah's parents. The next card, speaking of matters in Aliyah's very recent past, is the Empress, reversed. This is a mother, or a mother figure, who is very selfish, shallow, and not very "motherly". I am assuming, for the moment, that this is Aliyah's mother. I could be wrong about the "who", but the character traits and the presence of a person fitting the description remains. This person is a big part of the "why" in "why did Aliyah go missing?". The next card, telling me the best possible outcome of this, is the seven of wands, reversed. If the Reversed Empress would simply reveal what she knows, and stop playing games with law enforcement and doing her best to keep them "away from her door", so to speak, that would be best, and possibly help recover Aliyah. What will happen, however; has a lot to do with a male in the Empress's, and Aliyah's, lives. He is the Knight of Swords, reversed. This is not a good card, and not a good position for this card, in any missing person's reading. It often heralds violence or a violent death. In this case, I think the card does double duty, describing a person AND an event; namely, the the last person to see Aliyah alive, and possibly, what happened to her on the morning of September 24.

The first card on the staff is the King of Pentacles. This is an older, sensible, down-to earth man who may be able to ask the right questions and put together a scenario that will lead searchers and investigators to Aliyah and the truth about what happened to her. The next card, describing the environs around Aliyah, and possibly to the opinions and feelings of friends and family about her, is the Queen of Wands, reversed. This is a jealous, angry woman who is attempting to mislead law enforcement and throw the investigation off course, This is NOT the Empress, to whom I referred earlier. As a curious note, I wonder how jealousy plays a role in the disappearance of a THREE YEAR OLD? Ok; moving along to the "hoped for" outcome; I have the Devil. This can be taken two different ways; it can represent the hopes of law enforcement and the community to solve this case using tried and true methods, bound to tradition, not having to think outside of the box, or it can represent to desires of the perpetrator to continue thwarting resolution and justice. Possibly both; either way, it creates a problem in finding this little girl. As a final outcome, I get the Lovers, reversed. This could represent bad relationships, bad combinations, or bad choices. The message I get from the card reversed in this position, as the outcome of this reading, is that the Empress and the Knight of Swords are the combination described by the Lovers, and when their bad combination disintigrates, bits and pieces of the truth will come out. After that, the King of Pentacles will be able to put those bits and pieces together, and the guilty parties will be confronted.

I was never given a true direction or a location; but I do see water, and slow movement north.

Lisa Irwin

Initially, I wasn't going to do a reading about Lisa Irwin. I was honestly hoping that she would be found before I would even have a chance to publish a reading, and returned to her family, to live a long and happy life. Yet it eight days have passed, and this has not happened. Someone challenged me to do a reading for her, so I will attempt it. I will have to say, I do not like the way this reading looks....

This is a past/present/future reading. The first three cards I drew represent the past. It starts with the ten of swords. This tells me that a situation that seemed almost impossible has reached it's end. In this case, stealth was involved more than violence, still; the message is disturbing. It does not bode well for little Lisa. The next card is the five of pentacles, telling of resources or help that were available but not seen or utilized. There was a certain amount of exasperation and desperation on someone's part. (I don't know who the "someone" is at this point....I want to be VERY clear about that) I also see a lack of guidance, followed by misguidance. The next card is the knight of pentacles. He is a young man in his early twenties, quiet, unassuming, and purposeful. His goal here was to help with the situation described by the ten of swords. This is a person who knows more about Lisa's CURRENT whereabouts than anyone else.

The three cards I drew for the present are these: the page of pentacles; this is news of an opportunity that involved finances. It is followed by the eight of swords, reversed. The opportunity was followed by some sort of release from a constricting situation. And this card was followed by the queen of cups, reversed. She is a woman with artistic tendencies, yet also unwilling to make sacrifices. As I do not know her role in Lisa's life, I will reiterate that I am not pointing any fingers at anyone.

For the future, I have Strength, reversed, as the first card. The family and community surrounding Lisa's life has become upset, understandably, and emotionally embroiled in this. There is also a warning attached to this that people searching and sifting through clues have become emotionally exhausted, as well as physically tired, and this is affecting everyone's objectivity, even law enforcement's. The next card is the four of swords, telling me that Lisa will be found one day.Upside right, this card is a card of rest, or of things in "stasis"; but upside down, it tells of renewed activity and motion. The cards are not telling me WHEN Lisa will be found, though. The last card is the King of Wands. This is man with an honest interest in simply finding Lisa, and as fire represents the suit of wands, he brings light and new knowledge to the case and to those who are searching. He is not part of Lisa's family, and is somehow very instumental in finding Lisa.

One more thought: in Taoism, four is a number that represents family. Yet this four of swords is reversed........also; swords are associated with air, the element of communication. I think the break in the case comes from communicating with Lisa's family.

The Twofold Nature Of Psychic Guidance

I had trouble deciding whether to title this post "The Twofold Nature Of Psychic Guidance", or "Why I Have Not Published A Reading For Lisa Irwin". Don't get me wrong, I DID do a reading for Lisa Irwin. And I shared my observations with whom I feel are the correct people. To date, the crime has not been solved, and poor little Lisa is still lost.

Giving the reading is only one part of the process. The other part is interpretation and listening. Going on and on with reading after reading, while no one is looking at the clues provided, is taxing and nonproductive. And, information that can get a case solved usually does not change by the minute, and it is almost an insult to continue with more readings while the first one has been ignored. This is something I see from time to time with people who want readings about bad relationships.........the problems that made the relationship unworkable have not changed, yet the person, or persons, want to find some sort of "psychic loophole", and delay dealing with their problems. Also, there are a couple of websites that encourage amateur psychics to persist with observation after observation, until each contributor is so far away from reality that further communication is worthless. The advice of a psychic or a reading only has to be uttered once. More times, possibly, if something changes, but not again and again.

This listening of which I speak...........it would seem that it is harder than it sounds. Just mundane clues, such as clues offered by Jaycee Dugrad's stepfather, Carl Probyn, who saw the kidnapping of his stepdaughter but was ignored by the police and later accused, get ignored and make the word of any enlightened psychic ineffective. Had anyone come along and told the police the truth, that a sex offender with a criminal history had taken Jaycee, the police probably would not have listened, any better than they listened to Carl Probyn, an eye witness. Sad. Also, there is Michele Dorr, whose father was accused of making her disappear in 1986, in Maryland. They did not have enough evidence to charge him, but the real killer killed again, at least a couple more times, before he was caught in the early 1990's. No one wanted to consider any other possibilty than the dad. I lived in Maryland at the time, and someone actually had me do a reading for that. The answer was that the dad was innocent, and no one wanted to listen.

Right now, I think the police can actually solve Lisa Irwin's kidnapping if they look at the community, and the neighboring cities. If they look hard at every connection Lisa's family has, and question everyone, giving no respect to whatever the community respects, but just looking at possible connections to the family and oppotunity to take this child, I think they determine who took Lisa. I also think they know that, and are afraid, for some reason, to do that. I think it's easier for them to just close the case, rather than stand up to a dangerous criminal or question someone who is politically well connected within the Kansas City area. So they blamed Lisa's parents. This isn't to say that Lisa's parents have not somehow erred; it just looks to me as if the police did not really do a thorough investigation. If the police do not want to look at all the obvious, mundane clues, there is no way a psychic or a reading can help.

In time, if Baby Lisa is not found, I will publish readings about her. After she has grown or changed, obvious clues that are useful now will no longer be useful. It will be necessary to use intuition and think outside of the box, so to speak, in order to gain insight. But I would really like to see this baby found before the situation reaches that point.

Question About Law Enforcement In Kyron Horman's Case

Yesterday, someone asked me a question about the police, and how the Kyron Horman case has been handled. Since I have not done a reading about this yet, I decided to do one, and post it online. It's a Celtic Cross, and the verbatim is, "what have the police not covered in Kyron Horman's case?"

The basis is the four of pentacles crossed by the seven of swords. The four of pentacles signifies hoarding resources instead of spending them, and the seven of swords tells me that this was more than the police were able to manage in the first place. So........that was easy; financial corners were cut early on, and it was handled in ways that were inexpert and gave an advantage to a thief or kidnapper.

The next two cards deal with things that happened close to the event (Kyron's disappearance) itself. Below, in the place of background, we have the Sun, which is a great card. It usually means excellent fortune. This makes me think that the crime could have been solved by now, if looked at......with LIGHT shining on it.......or under the SUN. (sounds weird, but somehow seemed like the thing to say at the time) Perhaps they (law enforcement) already have their answer. The next card, representing events or people moving into the past, is the two of wands. This is an endeavor which was started with help, in this case, an accomplice. I think an accomplice was able to slip away, unnoticed and unquestioned in this whole mess. To this day, no one may be looking at this person or his or her involvement.

The next card, the two of cups reversed, deals with an issue that is still having repercussions on the investigation; inability on the parts of two or more individuals to work together. I do not know if this is law enforcement or others involved in the search or in Kyron's life, but I do know that the lack of trust and breakdown of communication between these two entities has the potential to continue to harm Kyron's chances of being found. Something that WILL happen, is the Hermit. He is a little like Diogenes, looking for an honest man. He will leave no stone unturned, and I am happy to see him in the place of things that WILL happen, rather than things that COULD happen.

The staff begins with Strength in the place of environs, this tells me that law enforcement is still committed to finding Kyron. Eight is the number of that card; perhaps it is of some significance. I will have to think on that some more. The next card deals with public opinion, and it is the eight of pentacles reversed. Upright, this card is the card of the apprentice, gifted in his chosen field. Upside down, not so much! Apparently, my questioner, and others, have a low opinion of the skill and diligence of this police force! This is followed by the ten of wands in the place of desires, and this indicates that the community would like to see closure in this matter. The final outcome is the Fool. The Fool is a completely new idea, approach, or person. He can be an event or an individual, and upright, as this card appears, he is almost an answer to prayer! I believe law enforcement will finally get a valid tip that will help the Hermit, who appeared in the place of things to come, find Kyron and solve this case.

I realize that there are a couple of loose ends in the question, but this is what I have right now, along with a grey cat who wants to reshuffle my cards!

What Will It Take To Straighten Out The Confusion With Kyron Horman's Kidnapping?

In light of the reading I did on September 5, I asked Tarot another question about the Kyron Horman case. I wanted to know how all of this confusion associated with the case can be straightened out, in order to give law enforcement a proper direction to find Kyron.

In a Celtic Cross, we have the seven of wands crossed by the Lovers. Whoever was initially responsible for Kyron's disappearance is faced with a choice, possibly linked to romance, and will favor just keeping the media and others at bay as long as possible. Underneath this, we have the nine of swords, indicating worry. Then, in the recent past, the nine of pentacles reversed appears, telling me that this person's financial security is not strong right now. Moving along to possible choices or outcomes, I have the Chariot. This person would like to find a way to make the two realities, past mistakes and current coverups, work together to create a way to keep evading the truth. But in the near future, the page of pentacles appears, reversed. This could mean that an event out of this person's control is about to happen, involving a child or an adolescent, or a school. It could also mean that this person is not willing, in any way, to cooperate with law enforcement about Kyron.

The staff begins with the four of swords in the place of the emotional and physical state of the situation.......basically, things are "at rest". In the "enivironment" involving other people, we have the five of pentacles reversed. It would appear that the situation has received some new resources from somewhere, or the perpetrator has gotton some sort of charity. Perhaps both. In the place of hopes, we have the nine of cups, reversed. This is a hope for this whole mess to somehow come to an end....not an unpleasent end, but an end. As a final outcome, the four of cups, reversed, shows up. Rightside up, it represents lack of gratitude and appreciation. Upside down, it can mean a new relationship or opportunity, and looking harder at the reversed five of pentacles........that's another interpretation for that card. It's possible that the perpetrator has found a new romantic relationship.

One more interesting note is that three nines came up. I feel that this means that in mind of the person who took Kyron, this is not completely over. But, the reversals of the none of pentacles and the nine of cups indicate that no opportunity will pan out as long as this matter is not resolved.

Kyron is also nine years old today. Happy Birthday, Kyron! Come home!

Difficult Question In The Kyron Horman Case

I asked the Tarot a difficult question concerning Kyron Horman and the efforts to find him. It was basically about why Kyron has not been found yet, and where all of the searches and efforts have gone wrong. This reading is Celtic Cross, and this is what I got:

Basis: Ten of swords, reversed, cross by the Queen of Cups. This is a temporary position of power, gained by chaotic means. The Queen of Cups is the person who would love to just jump in and solve the problem created by all this chaos. Founding this, we get the ten of pentacles. This represents money that was gifted, not earned. Somehow, it is part of this picture. Someone involved in Kyron's life received either an inheritance or a large sum of money as a gift. The King of Cups is the influence fading into the background. The best that can be expected from this part of the situation alone is the Page of Swords, reversed. This is a tip, or testimony, about what is going on. It comes from someone who is not kindly disposed toward those involved, or under some other legally hostile circumstance. The ace of pentacles is what will happen; unlike the ten, the ace represents an opportunity for financial gain, more than an actualized reality of financial gain. But it is reveresed, which tells me that whatever was done was done for nothing.

Staff: In the place of valid concerns surrounding this we have the King of Swords. This represents law enforcement and the court system; so that is still heavily on someone's mind. The going opinion of this matter and the persons involved is the Sun; I think someone has a lot of people fooled concerning his or her (or both?) involvement with Kyron's disappearance. The following card, in the place of hopes, is the four of wands, which tells me that this person is hoping to continue down the same path, never getting found out. The final outcome is the Queen of Swords, reversed. This is typically a woman who has lost a few things dear to her, such as family or children, and reversed, can be quite vindictive. The puzzling thing is that she did not become completely "barren" until after Kyron went missing!  I think the money referred to earlier in the reading may have been, at one point, hers.

The two "tens" in the reading are curious. First of all, the reversed ten of swords.........in this case, this is power gotton by holding an entire situation hostage and doing little else. Then, underneath it, we have the ten of pentacles. I think that's really what this is all about. Some invested an entire inheritance or the sum of a savings account into something, and didn't get the expected return. It looks as if it isn't going to happen, either.

DNA, careful fact finding, and diplomacy will somehow find a way to set this straight. I still have hope that there will be a very happy reunion for Kyron and his family.

Where Is Lindsey Baum?

Ok....now for my next question about Lindsey Baum........where  is she?

Past; three cards, King of Pentacles, three of cups, three of swords, reversed. This tells me that an older man, possibly interested in money put an end to a relatively happy situation. Lindsey thought she was safe, and did not fight the older man, but was sadly mistaken.

Present; three more cards, four of swords, reversed, two of wands, Empress, reversed. This states that a situation that was stagnant suddenly became "unstagnant". There are currently two accomplices keeping this matter from coming to light, and one is a woman who clearly does not have Lindsey's best interests at heart. This came up the reading about what happened to Lindsey, as well.

Things to come; five of pentacles, reversed, Hanged Man, reversed, six of pentacles. Not a card combination I liked, here. My initial vision was of a tree, or digging between an 5th and 6th street, and the secret finally getting revealed. Is there even a 5th and 6th street in McCleary, Washington. The information will be new and unexpected. Also, the reading began and ended with pentacles......first the King, then the six. The King is in it for material reasons, and the six is saying that you get out of it what you put in, in other words, you get what you pay for. Someone still isn't satisfied with what he or she has been offered in order to give up the truth about what has happened.

What Happened To Lindsey Baum

I did a Celtic Cross reading to determine what happened to Lindsey Baum, and I must say, the answer, as I interpreted it was a surprise. I had initially thought that poor Lindsey was deceased, but now, I am not so sure. So this is going to be a two-parter. I will start with what the cards tell me has happened to her, and then move onto a question in another reading about her whereabouts.

The basis consists of the King of Cups, reversed, crossed by the Emporer. This is clearly two men. One is a dishonest, manipulative, liar who may drink too much or force sexual perversions on others. The other, who is in conflict with the King of Cups, is either Lindsey's father, or has a fatherly concern for her. The matters underlying this whole situation is the Page of Cups, and I perceive this to be Lindsey. In fact, the numeric value of a page is 11, and I do believe Lindsey is 11 this year. Energies flowing away from all of this are the five of wands, which represents a game being played with someone; in this case, Lindsey's mother and law enforcement. Above this, depicting the very best that can come out of this, (and this bothers me, somewhat) is the Empress, reversed. This is not a good card for the position. It tells of a either a mother who does not have Lindsey's best interests at heart, or a psuedo-mother, playing the role, and maintaining a facade, keeping the truth hidden. Another interesting factor in this reading is the appearance of both the Emporer and the Empress. It gives me hope that Lindsey is still alive. The next card, things to come, is possibly the most interesting of all..........we get the Lovers, upright. Either some news that is very telling is on the way, from a surprise source, or someone who knows something helpful makes the right choice, and gives good information to law enforcement.

At the beginning of the staff, we find the ace of wands, telling me that someone took advantage of an opportunity..........Lindsey was simply in an easy position to be kidnapped. For her environs, we have the three of cups, which tells of happiness. But too much happiness in a reading like this is not always a good sign, because once a person is deceased and reaches peace about it, we often find happiness surrounding that person. Next, in the place of hopes and fears, is judgement, reversed. This speaks to the fact that Lindsey is presumed deceased by many people. The final outcome is the Queen of Pentacles. She is a person who knows what happened, and can come forward and tell law enforcement.

This reading really makes me wonder what Lindsey's home life was like, and where her biological father stood in all of this. The initial and most clear interepretation would be that Lindsey was caught in a negative situation with a step parent or significant other of a natural parent, and was rescued by the other parent, but was all of this sufficiently studied by law enforcement? And, while walking home from the neighbor's house, how far did she get on her five minute walk home that evening?

Where Is Baby Kate?

Katherine Phillips, a five month old baby girl, was driven away by her alleged biological father, in Michigan, while supposedly offering the mother a ride to the hospital with her for a DNA test. He was arrested three hours later, at his mother's house, but there was no sign of the baby. This happened at the end of June, so it has been over three weeks. I did a Celtic Cross reading, asking the question, "Where is baby Kate?"

The first card was the Magician, crossed by the eight of cups. This give a basis of a man who knows exactly what he  is doing, taking advantage of a situation wherein someone had changed his/her mind about a course of action. As a foundation for this, we have the Moon, which tells me that this "father" had planned this all along, but had not told the baby's mother what he intended  to do. As an event in the recent past, the knight of swords shows up. This is a rather violent card........it could tell of a death, but lets hope he is just telling us that the baby was taken out of the area quickly. The best that can come from all of this is some disappointing news, as we get the Page of Wands, reveresed, in the position of possible outcomes. Someone who WILL come into the picture, however; is the Queen of Wands. This card is also reversed, telling me that she is not an honest, legit person, and has a nasty personality, as well.

The staff begins with the nine of pentacles, reversed, in the place of this father's concerns, followed by the three of pentacles in the place of home environment. This points to a desire on his part to keep his finacial resources to himself and only have himself to support. (selfish creep) In the place of his hopes is the five of wands, which tells me that he has no intention of telling the truth about what he did and is only planning to play games with authorities and Baby Kate's mother. The final card on the staff is the ace of wands, as an outcome to all of this. That is the best card in the reading........it tells of an opportunity to either find this little girl, or perhaps someone will come forward with information. Unless the father feels he has something to lose, all of a sudden, by not revealing her whereabouts, he has no intention of doing so.

Here is little Katherine Phillips, and here is more information.

The Best Way For Whoever Has Kyron To Return Him

Ok; yesterday, I did a reading discussing who could tell us where Kyron is, and now here is one describing the best way for the person who currently has Kyron to give him back. Kyron Horman was last seen in his Portland school, Skyline Elementary, on June 4, 2010, in the morning before classes began.

This is a Celtic Cross reading, and the first card is the two of swords. This reiterates yesterdays reading, which featured the stalemate of the two of swords as a defensive posture of the perpetrator. It is crossed by the Emporer. From this, I glean that this person is deadlocked into a stalemate over something with Kyron's father. It is founded by the six of pentacles, reversed. This tells me that someone involved either feels they did not get what they earned, or truly didn't. In either case, the situation evolved into this person getting nothing, as shown by the five of pentacles representing the energies slowly passing from the situation. Crowning this, the Tower, reversed, is the best possible outcome. So at this point, no matter what happens, whoever has Kyron should plan on making major lifestyle changes in the future. This is verified by the arrival of the Knight of Wands in the very near future. I think this card has a double meaning: I think a man who really wants to get to the bottom of this and find Kyron is nearby, and I think it represents a change of residence for the person who has Kyron. And possibly for Kyron.

On the staff, the negative feelings of the person who has Kyron was represented by the four of pentacles, reversed. This is a feeling that time and resources have been wasted, and that the whole gesture of taking Kyron was a waste of energy. Following this card, in the place of the person's personal environment, is the three of swords, reversed. Agreements have fallen apart, trust is eroding, and no one really wants to play this game anymore. In the place of the perpetrator's hopes, we get the nine of cups......the perpetrator is comfortable and wants things to remian just as they are. As a final outcome, the Page of Swords comes up. I do not feel that the Page of Swords is the perpetrator, and I do not feel that the perpetrator is going to try to make this right by giving Kyron back to his parents. The suggestion made by the Page of Swords is that there really are no secrets, and this secret will force it's way into the open in a life-altering way.

One possible interpretation of the five of pentacles is a church, and that could provide the means to give Kyron back to his parents. I believe it has been suggested before. The way this card is followed by a knight would warn the perpetrator to just leave, after making sure Kyron found an adult to sit down and talk to. It could work.

Who Can Tell Us Where Kyron Is?

Ok, I found myself asking this question, and wanting to post the answer I got. It is a Celtic Cross reading about Kyron Horman, who went missing on June 4, 2010, from Portland Oregon.

The basis of the matter is the Empress, reversed, crossed by the Lovers. This tells me that someone who should have been more motherly and responsible than she was made and continues to make very selfish choices. The Lovers can represent the making of a choice, or an actual partnership, and in this case, I think it represents both. And the fact that the Empress did not act alone is always on her mind........someone who knows the facts and can throw her under the bus, so to speak.

Founding the matter is the three of cups, reversed. A newly hatched plan did not work out as planned, and has been abandoned. The passing influence here is the three of wands reversed, telling me that there were accomplices, and there was a definate plan. The reversal of the card indicates the dishonesty. This is crowned by the nine of cups, reversed. While no one has been held accountable for Kyron's disappearance yet, whatever was supposed to have been accomplished has not worked out as planned. The soon-to-come influence is the Page of cups. This is really a big part of the answer to my question, indicating that if the person who knows something about Kyron's whereabouts will kindly speak up, the news will be good.

The staff begins with the Page of wands, reversed. The person who could bring Kyron home is untruthful, instead. In the place of home environment and public perception, I get the Star, reversed. Who this person is, he/she is seen as unrealistic and a bit unstable. In the place of hopes and fears, there is the two of swords, reversed. Whoever this is has someone else in a stalemate, and has used it to keep things just they way they are for Kyron and his family. I take this to be a fear, because the person is very afraid of the stalemate ending. And as a final outcome, I have the four of swords, reversed, which means that for good or for ill, the stalemate WILL end, and information will make it's way out from somewhere about this little boy.
