Legacy of the Divine Tarot

Legacy_movie_youtubeCiro Marchetti, the creative mind and digital artist behind the Gilded Tarot and Tarot of Dreams, is working on a new deck titled Legacy of the Divine Tarot.

Check out this mini-movie on YouTube about Ciro's upcoming deck. Does that give you the chills or what? It reminds me of the music and graphics from the Journey to Wild Divine "inner-active" computer adventure.

You can get a sneak peek at some of the completed cards from the Legacy of the Divine Tarot from Ciro's site. (And if you'd like to see Ciro on a local NBC station talking about his gorgeous kimonos lavished with his colorful digital art, check out this link showcasing his work--and his yummy British accent.)

Get Your Tarot Glam On at Omni Hotels

so_girlfriends.jpgOmni Hotels -- swanky! -- offers a "Get Your Glam On" weekend getaway package designed especially for gangs of girlfriends in need of some pampering and bonding time.

In your room, in addition to wine, chocolate-covered strawberries, and a "chick flick" DVD to watch, you'll find a copy of the Girlfriend's Tarot.

Who knew getting your glam on included consulting the cards? Of course, if your strained entertainment budget won't bear the price of a weekend at your local Omni Hotel, there's nothing to say you can't pick up some Two Buck Chuck, some dipping chocolate, a chick flick, and a Tarot deck of your own!

Tarot Scramble (Feed the Hungry)

Free_rice_banner_2Hi all,

Do you like word games? Below are some Tarot-related words to unscramble. By all means post your guesses!

NAAACR   TIEWA   OYCLWER   ASDPER   LCCISHSAE   USSTI   ECEERPTAMN   EORWT   IGKTHN

To be honest, I'm making this post with an ulterior motive: to draw your attention to a fantastic website that donates rice to the hungry simply by playing an online multiple-choice word game at FreeRice.com.

You can increase your vocabulary and test your skills while helping your fellow man. Get one word right, and 20 grains of rice are donated to the United Nations World Food Programme. Five words right and POOF!--you've donated 100 grains of rice.

Pretty cool, huh?

If you like the idea and want to support the cause beyond playing online, you can visit this link to snatch a banner to put up on your site or blog.
