Joy Andreasen's Tarot Tuesday: Queen of Pentacles

Today's card is the Queen of Pentacles.

   Joy Andreasen  provides the interpretation of Tarot cards on these Tarot Tuesdays:
If you are a woman, today is a day to own your power. You are in a good place. Life is good and abundance is your state of affairs right now. You are blessed in many ways and are not afraid to share those blessings with others. If you don't see that in your experience, you can be a magnet to abundance just by imagining that you are abundant in all areas of life. Raise your vibration. Choose to be joyful and aware of the benevolence of the Universe. If you are a man, then there is a woman in your experience today who exemplifies these qualities. You might want to get on her good side. Do something nice for her or give her a gift! She is worth the attention!
 ABOUT JOY: Joy Andreasen is an author, shamanic practitioner, psychic medium, spiritual consultant, Reiki Master Teacher and wedding officiant. She has been giving messages from Spirit for almost twenty years. She teaches spiritual development and shamanic classes in Winchester and Herndon Virginia which are always highly acclaimed.  She has compiled some of these messages into a book which is available on her website, www.whispersofjoy.net. Her  goal is to be of service to others in whatever way is most beneficial to their souls.

Outstanding Paranormal Photography Book: Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia by Tim Scullion

Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg Virginia: with Breakthrough Ghost Photography   Tim Scullion, a photographer, historian, musician and teacher has put together a book of the most amazing paranormal photos you will ever see in one book. He's also an historic guide in Williamsburg, Virginia (the original state capital before it was moved to Richmond). As a guide, he conveys all of the history of all of the historic buildings he photographed in the city.
   Tim has perfected a way to see the faces of people who haunt houses and buildings. He's identified several types of ghostly lights and shapes throughout his photos.
  In this 208 page book, you'll find each page with fascinating history and paranormal pictures like you've never seen before.
    Paranormal investigators are always hoping to catch a ghost in a photograph or video, and it's a rare thing when they do. I've caught only a couple that were not orbs (a rounded ball of light, the most simple form a ghost can take). This is one book you'll definitely want on your bookshelf and it will really inspire you to visit Williamsburg, Virginia.
   Tim Scullion's book is published through Schifferbooks.com.

ABOUT THE BOOK FROM THE PUBLISHER: 
Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg Virginia: with Breakthrough Ghost Photography by  Tim Scullion 
$19.99 
Join ghost photographer and researcher Tim Scullion on a two-year tour of Colonial Williamsburg, America’s haunted historic city of ghosts. Visit 43 creepy locations where Scullion describes his paranormal odyssey to capture and explain each apparition, a bit of historical and paranormal background of the building it appears in or over, and insights about these ghostly beings that he has learned from careful observation. With more eighteenth-century buildings and homes than any other place in America, Scullion has learned the secret to consistently capturing ghostly apparitions of all kinds on camera. Examine 230 paranormal images that are beautiful, ugly (if not horrifying!), bizarre, and defy explanation. He also provides historic accounts, ghost sightings, and narrative, insights, and introspection for each location. Colonial Williamsburg is a hotspot for ghosts!
