*As you walk into the Divination tower your eyes are drawn to a round table covered in felt. Over the felt there appears to be a dark cloth with a deck of cards. Professor ____ is standing by the table and beckons you closer. She motions for you to take a seat and when the last student arrives she turns and starts talking. She appears excited*

There are quite literally thousands of different styles of Tarot cards. Sometimes you may find that you simply do not feel a connection with one kind. Some people believe that you should never buy your first deck, they believe that a deck must be given to you as a gift. In this way the mystical forces are finding you and not the other way round. I don’t necessarily agree with this rule as sometimes the perfect deck will find you in other ways. When I first started reading Tarot many years ago, I visited a Mystical shop and was browsing the crystals when a Tarot deck fell off the shelf in front of me and landed at my feet. What made it even stranger was that the deck in question had been hidden from my view. I believe that the deck chose me. I have used many decks since then but the connection I feel when I use those cards is still a powerful feeling. Trust your own …show more content…
The next thing you will need is to know the question you would like answered. When doing a reading for someone else it can help to know what it is they are seeking however it is not essential. There are two types of readings: Question readings and Open readings. Generally, with Question readings the Querent or Seeker will have a specific question they will like answered. Open readings are more general and give an overall reading.
There are many different types of Tarot Spreads but for beginners it is always best to start with the simple three card spread. This spread can be used in one of two ways: Past, present and future or The Problem, advice, The likely outcome. I have given you an example of a reading I have done below. Please do not worry, if your reading of these cards would have been different. As I have said before all readings are open to the interpretation of the Seer. In Year three we shall look at the Tarot cards in far more detail and you shall practice your own
Out of This World is an outstanding card effect that many magicians have improved upon and performed with their own unique twist, including me. Out of this world has been billed as “The Greatest Card Trick of The Last Century,” and also “The Trick That Fooled Winston Churchill.” According to Curry a magician by the name of Harry Green performed Out of This World for Churchill, the effect fooled Churchill so he demanded it be shown to him again. Harry Green did so, he performed it six more times for Churchill and left him completely baffled every time. The method is simple yet deceptive, and it is truly a classic of card magic. So now with much excitement, I present to you my re-telling of Paul Curry’s Out of This
Shabbat Shalom. Thank you Carolyn for the warm introduction…My wife Tami and I are so thrilled to be here. Many of you may not know that I grew up at camp in Zionsville, and in many ways it was formative in the development of my Jewish path. I could not wait to show my family the special place I knew Indianapolis to be. And we have arrived to thunderous applause – or that could just be the storms we’ve experienced over the past weeks, I’m not sure.

If you are unsure about this, let me just say this: If you can 't make a decision, no matter how hard you try, isn 't something better than nothing? Many people believe in flipping a coin or getting someone else to point to a colored rock that signifies one choice or another, but when it comes to tarot cards, they are quick to shut the idea down. Probably because of the weird label that comes with tarot cards. However, tarot cards are simply

Throughout the world there are hundreds of different cultures, religions, and customs. Each and every culture has a guideline of what is acceptable and what is not. Tattoos are still, to this day, a topic that is both, frowned upon, as well as, admired. There isn't a definite answer as to when, exactly, the first tattoo was created and acknowledged as such, however there are tons of different cultures around the world where tattoos began and were passed on to surrounding cultures. Tattoos can be found on Egyptian mummies, found in their tombs, Japanese and Chinese people, Sailors, and even Otzi, the iceman, dated back over 5,300 years ago.
Everyone wishes for a magical day in their life where they could be a princess for a day. Some wish to have a fluffy, long and pink dress, or a crown on their head. I always wished and wished that I could be that princess. On March 28th of 2015, that wish came true.
Throughout the nation catastrophes occur on a daily basis; however there are a few catastrophes that have taken national precedence and left a traumatized nation. Most usually these catastrophes are an act of terrorism. Michael Nelson (2010) describes the nature of such terrorism catastrophes as disconcerting, unanticipated and that unnerve “the country’s sense of safety and identity” (p. 20). When such “a traumatic event results in the death of civilians” and “calls the nation’s institutions or values into question” the nation as a whole looks to their leader, our president, to offer solace and calm through a responsive speech (Campbell and Jamieson, 2008, p. 102). In Presidents Creating the Presidency, (2008) the authors have labeled these speeches as a national eulogy in which they usually occur at the sight of the
...r experience prevails over deck type and that careful deckbuilding is vital. During a game, a player who can more easily see a profitable outcome is bound to succeed over one who cannot. Despite the deck used, it was clear that Jon was able to defeat Jim. However, it is important to use a deck that is suitable in certain environments, even for very experienced players. A deck that thrives on cards that can quickly diminish life before an opponent can cast a single spell is very suitable, while the opposing one is not. A deck needs spells that can win the game when used correctly, and consequently needs the cards that allow you to use them correctly.
You leave your cards on the table flipped on their back with chips over them, if you want to see your cards you slightly tilt them with your hands covering them.

There is no arguing Walt Disney practiced what he preached. In fact, he did what he did so well that people continue to bring others to see what he did to this day, that being Disneyland. First, we’ll start by learning about the background history of Disneyland. Next, we’ll compare Disneyland from when it first started to what it has developed into. And finally, we’ll explore all the eight parks and what they have to offer.

Mindfulness is defined by Merriam-Webster dictionary as “the practice of maintaining a nonjudgmental state of heightened or complete awareness of one's thoughts, emotions, or experiences on a moment-to-moment basis.” Many people practice mindfulness to reduce stress, but it has also been shown to reduce rumination, stress, and emotional reactivity. On the other side, mindfulness has been been linked to boosting memory, focus, and cognitive flexibility while aiding in relationships (Davis and Hayes, 2012). This state of thought is useful not only for people already anxious, but also for those preparing to enter more stressful situations. Practicing mindfulness earlier on can help with finding coping mechanisms before one is put in a stressful
