Laura PerryI'm delighted to announce that the ebook editions of my books are now available directly from me in my Ko-Fi shop!
This week’s Minoan Tarot cards. This deck is my creation, made the old-fashioned way (ink on paper) and available at bookstores everywhere.
Priest of Labryses: Let your inner Air guide your outer actions. Lean on your intellect and take the time to analyze any issues that arise, working out strategies that will achieve your desired goals. Always refer to your ethics so your decisions will be fair and just, and be willing to take needed actions without waiting for others to act first or give you permission.
Ten of Rhytons: Lean on the strong, steady relationships in your life since they are a source of happiness and emotional fulfillment. Let your connections with others engender joy and give you a sense of steadiness. Heart-centered relationship is a source of emotional nourishment; value it and celebrate it.
For those who are new to these card draws, each week I pull one card from the top of the deck and a second card from the bottom. The top-of-the-deck card (the first one, on the left) gives us some helpful hints about how to navigate our week. The bottom-of-the-deck card (the second one, on the right) is the “secret treasure” that can help us find joy in these Interesting Times.
I created this coloring book (by hand, no clipart or AI) because I wanted a historically accurate Minoan coloring book, and there wasn't one available. Yes, I've colored the pages in it myself! I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Details and sample coloring pages via link below. And yes, it's available elsewhere besides that place named after a South American river.

When I draw a Tarot card for the day, I stand it on my altar so I can see it every time I pass that spot and be reminded of it. Sometimes I put it away at the end of the day, and sometimes I leave it out overnight as a companion to my dreams.

The Fool: The primal self without presumptions; oneness with the universe and trust in it. The acts of the Fool look risky or ridiculous only to those who are not also in tune. The purpose of spiritual study is to strip off the layers to reach this pure state again, to once more be fully in touch with the cosmos and your own divinity.
The Adept: The Adept has both the background and the experience to move along their chosen path, using both outward and inward tools for spiritual development. This card speaks of finding the deity within, learning all you can and following a spiritual path. The Adept is willing to do the work to advance along that path, recognizing that nothing of value comes without effort.

Priest of Labryses: Lean on your intellect this week to sort out any issues that may arise. Analyze the situation dispassionately and create strategies for dealing with it. Once you’ve patiently figured out the best choice, make a firm decision, articulate it clearly, and stick with it.
Two of Rhytons: Pay attention to your relationships and value them for the reciprocal exchange of energy they provide in your life. Our connections in our personal, professional, and spiritual lives are an important part of our being. Lean into those connections, especially in one-on-one settings.

This week's Minoan Tarot cards. This deck is my creation, my art, no AI involved.
Maid of Horns: Simple, straightforward practicality will get you where you need to go. Try not to get bogged down in the details, and don’t forget that people have feelings. But viewing the situations you encounter in a direct, down-to-earth, pragmatic way is your best bet this week.
Youth of Daggers: Enthusiasm is a great beginning, but it won’t get you very far unless you invest some time and effort in learning real skills. The learning curve doesn’t have to be daunting - or boring. Dedicate yourself to working toward mastery, and you can celebrate each successful step along the way.

This book was really hard to write, not because the story is complicated (though it is) but because it's so heart-wrenching. And so very relevant to our times. Follow Aria as she navigates the hard times at the end of Minoan civilization, and ponder how we might make better choices today. Book details, including CWs, here:

Today's Minoan Tarot cards offer some helpful advice for making it through another week in these Interesting Times.
The World: Now is a time of fulfillment, accomplishment, wholeness, satisfaction, and contentment. The different aspects of your life connect seamlessly. This isn’t as much about material success as it is about inner satisfaction and a sense of deep meaning in life. Allow yourself to enjoy it.
Seven of Rhytons: You are indulging in wishful thinking in some way rather than facing what’s really there. You may feel like avoiding the truth will keep you from unpleasant situations, but it’s actually causing problems - and also making you miss out on opportunities. So face the situation the way it really is instead of how you’d like it to be, and the honesty will help you in the long run.
