Road Trip

Sometime back I was one of the people instrumental in creating the Triangle of Life cards. We demonstrated these at the Body Mind and Spirit Festivals and sold them to outlets in the U.S.A. and Canada as well as selling them from the web site. At one point even the college at Stanstead stocked the cards and they were used by some of the SNU churches in circle development. We never sold readings at the venues we attended but gave one free to anyone that bought a pack of cards, mostly to demonstrate how they were used.

I work on and off as a psychic since retiring and I do like to use these cards more than just my tarot pack as they have the ability to get to the heart of the client’s queries. To this end I will sometimes use them when reading for people on Ebay, although I also rely on Astrology as well as spirit guidance.

Dragon’s son used to set up and run clubs and still has a friend in the business. When he heard about the cards this friend had the bright idea of creating a traveling holistic night for club venues and as part of this Dragon and I were invited to do reading on the launch night in Cardiff. It was bitter cold and also if I remember correctly, close to the Chinese New Year that this venture was set on, as they were also giving away fortune cookies. We were traveling to the club by car and some of the cards were going too so that the Dragon’s son could sell them from a stall. It was a very well set out venue and there were healers and masseurs in one section as well as people giving talks on holistic subjects and of course dance music in between. It was fairly dark in the booths that they had allotted to us but we had candles to make it all look a little more ‘psychic’.

There was a steady stream of people wanting to have readings that night and we were kept very busy. It was not the most sensible of seating arrangements however as we had to compete with the music and by the end of the evening we all had headaches.

On the way home we stopped at one of the motorway service stations for coffee as the Dragon’s son has difficulty staying awake whilst driving. We had already taken a wrong turning at the spaghetti junction just outside of Bristol and had to retrace our steps from there to the M40. We were paid in little brown envelopes so we split the money whilst we drank coffee. Obviously there were the petrol expenses to pay for and then we all received just over one hundred pounds each. All in all a decent sum considering the work and inconvenience of traveling back in the early hours just before dawn.

The one pity was that no cards were sold during the adventure.
