The Four of Wands
Today’s card is the 4 of Wands. The Lord of Completion.
Today I decided I was going to start up Yoga. My old roommate owns a Yoga Studio in Marina del Rey called The Yoga Nest and she would have to drag my ass out of the house to come. But today I feel anew. There has been a shift from the old routines and patterns I’ve held onto for far too long.
Since I’ve been here in The UK I’ve gotten back on my bicycle, I’ve been hiking, and I’ve been singing like a bird. I’ve written lyrics for 4 of the Alchemy Fire songs and we head into Monster Trax Studio on Monday to lay a few of them down.
With completion comes renewal.
Are you feeling stuck right now? Are you in a dead end job? A failing relationship? Do you feel like you’re on a hamster wheel?
I get it. When we get stuck we feel like there is no solution. We feel doomed, resigned, scared. We need something or someone to shake the tree. Dust off the old leaves that have been long dead and just clinging on to old memories or beliefs.
It’s going to take a jumpstart to do this. You’re going to have to get out of your comfort zone. You’re going to have to say, ‘Fuck it’ and just do it.
Find a friend that thinks out of the box. Tag along a bit, as uncomfortable as it might be for you. Release control and let your soul be free. You will never regret this. I promise.
Peace!
The Queen of Wands
Today’s card is the Queen of Wands.
She is very passionate but on the dark side; opinionated.
It’s very easy to become opinionated when you are a passionate person. For myself, in the past (and sometimes now) I will step up on my soapbox and declare to the world what they should do.
Not so much anymore though… I’ve learned that we are all individuals with different ideas, different passions, and different dreams. So I do my best to keep my mouth shut and use my songwriting as my soapbox. This allows others to grow in whichever direction they please.
In the book ‘Conversations with God’ by Neale Donald Walsch, he talks about God in this way…
If you knew everything how would you experience anything? He states that the reason we are here on this planet is to experience everything… and I mean everything. Death, War, Famine, Poverty, Greed, Hate… and the list goes on. So if everything is an experience how could you classify good from bad? It’s a concept that really needs to get down to an individual level. I have chosen a belief of what works and what doesn’t work instead of right or wrong. For instance; Religion doesn’t work for me, but it might work for you.
Do you get my point?
Thinking in this fashion will keep a lot of us off of our soapboxes and become more tolerant of each other.
Today… do what you can to observe and accept that which you haven’t in the past. Try it on for size. Observe your emotions. What do you feel when you allow this to happen? Where does the intolerance stem from?
Peace!
Death
“We have separated living from dying, and the interval between is fear.” – Krishnamurti
.
Today’s card is the Death Card, and what a perfect card after the black Moon and now it being August 1st! An ending and a new beginning.
.
I’ve mentioned before that we all go through living and dying in the physical form, emotional form, and material form. We only experience the living form once in a lifetime so it seems so scary. We are all scrambling to stay young, or hold off death. If we could embrace it then it would be easier for us to go through change here in the physical. We know that when something ends here on this plane that it’s inevitable that there will be a new beginning. It’s the yin/yang, the positive/negative, light/dark. It’s impossible to NOT have the opposite. So why should physical death be different.
.
We have been trained in society to believe that when we die we either go to Heaven or Hell. I offer this idea… Heaven and Hell are a state of mind here on the physical plane. We make the rules here, but these rules don’t apply when we leave. Just as a baby is perfect when It enters this world, so is the same when we leave.
.
What is my point?
.
Tim McGraw said it best in his song, ‘Live like you were dying’…
.
“I went skydiving. I went Rocky Mountain climbing. I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fumanchu.
And I loved deeper, and I spoke sweeter, and I gave forgiveness I’d been denying. And he said, Someday I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying.”
.
Peace!

Update
I am off to Nottingham, England for the next 3 months…
As of July 15th I will be leaving Las Vegas. I will miss all of my friends, musicians, the fans… you have always supported me here. I am blessed. There is a lot of talent in this little town, and a lot of it I will miss, but as I post in my daily tarot readings… change is the only constant, and change is always good.
I will be coming back briefly in October before heading out on the MegaCruise in California and from there? I’m not sure… wherever the wind blows me.
The only thing I know for certain is that I will be in the English countryside writing lyrics, clearing my head, and getting ready for the new band to explode onto the scene.
The new band is called Alchemy Fire which consists of Paul Wright (Deezl), Tom Schofield (Oppressor, Soil), DieTrich Thrall (Beauty In The Suffering, Lords of Acid), and yours truly. We’ve talked about getting a second guitar player, as well as a keyboard player so start sending us your EPKs.
There is a lot of talent and a lot of drive in these guys, so I am looking forward to fronting this exceptional line-up.
Make sure to follow us

I’ll see you on the road.
Peace,

Two of Swords
Welcome to the Full Moon in Sagittarius. Today’s card is the two of Swords.
Today is a new beginning if you choose it to be. The 2 of Swords is asking us to rise above it all, take a new stance, a new perspective on things. When we do this, looking at things as a third party, we are no longer emotionally attached nor does the outcome cause us any concern. Life still continues.
There are always challenges in life, there will always be conflicts. It’s how we look and act upon them that makes the difference.
This Full Moon is asking us to take a different step, a bold step into a new future. It’s scary, I’m sure, but isn’t it exciting as well?
Today, focus on something that has concerned you, then rise above it, look around it, and do your best to see it in a new light, because today is about being at peace. Stop fretting over things because you think you ‘have to’. Remember what I’ve said in the past? There are no ‘have to’s’, there are only ‘get to’s’
Peace!
