When I saw this deck at Barnes and Noble, I had to get it; I'd been searching for the right deck that I really felt a connection with, and this immediately caught my eye. Along with the most cute and silly depictions of the cards, illustrated by Megan Lynn Kott, the deck comes with a little booklet, written by Julia Smillie, that helps explain how to interpret the individual cards as well as how to do tarot readings! Here are some of my favorite cards in the deck and the explanation given before getting more in depth into them, directly quoted from Ms. Smillie.

The complete Wands set

Ace: "Creativity is in the air--along with a rainbow of possibilities. This is a time of new beginnings, motivation, inspiration, creativity, vitality and energy."

Knight: "Both gallant and a tad annoying, the Knight of Wands always believes he knows best--and, with his energy and passion, he often does."

Page: "Like all the Pages in the tarot, the Page of Wands brings youthful energy but can also bring his youthful lack of judgement."

Queen: "The Queen of Wands exudes confidence. She is a Seer: strong, capable, vibrant, fearless, and ambitious. No matter how sleepy she may look."

King: "The King of Wands is everything a leader should be: strong, powerful, ambitious, and experienced."

The Magician, High Priestess, Hierophant and Hermit

The Magician: "The Magician straddles two worlds, one paw reaching skyward, two more on the ground, signifying the work of creativity."

The High Priestess: "Like an unexpected doorbell chime on a boring day, a visit from this card is both welcome and mysterious."

The Hierophant: "This card represents conformity, both good and bad."

The Hermit: "Indoor kitties needn't be any less worldly than wild ones."

The Empress and Emperor

The Empress: "This alpha female rules over an empire of peace and plenty."

The Emperor: "Worn with the right attitude, even a cone of shame can be a crown."

The Lovers, Hanged Man and Sun

The Lovers: "The Lovers bask in the sunshine of perfect harmony on a day undarkened by clouds."

The Hanged Man: "Although it looks like doom and danger, this card isn't the disaster it appears to be."

The Sun: "The sun provides a backdrop to the cat, on whom it rises and sets."

The Chariot, Justice, Star and Strength

The Chariot: "It may be called the company chair, but we all know who actually sits there."

Justice: "Just because the hand feeds you doesn't mean it doesn't deserve an occasional nip."

The Star: "Like Polaris, this card guides us to our personal true North."

Strength: "Everyone gets tired, but Strength always comes roaring back."

The Devil, Tower and Judgement

The Devil: "Like most dogs, the Devil is all bark and no bite."

The Tower: "."

Judgement: "Here comes the judge."

Ace of Swords and Page of Cups

Ace of Swords: "Aces herald new beginnings and, in this case, the spawning of new ideas, words, thoughts, and plans."

Page of Cups: "As usual, the Page brings in a youthful perspective, but he is still willing to take a good look at his reflection in order to understand his true feelings."

The 2 of Cups, 8 of Cups, 6 of Swords and 10 of Swords

2 of Cups: "What is better than the joining of two souls? This card is about unions and partnerships of all sorts."

8 of Cups: "Not everything in life is about material or physical possessions. Do some seeking, figure out what it is you want in life, and reach for something meaningful."

6 of Swords: "You're feeling a little low, but you'll soon be moving on from a rough situation. Or trying to, at least."

10 of Swords: "The worst seems to have happened. Or at least you've found yourself in a situation without a quick or easy remedy."

I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
