Sheila Reads and writes Happy Full Moon! I hope this blue moon is treating you well. This full moon in adventurous Sagittarius authorize the opportunity to be bold. I drew the 2 of Wands for our collective reading. This card tends to pop up when we need to hold both a delusional vision for our future and the discernment to know what we can do to work toward it. When we lead with that inspired energy, things tend to move much more quickly. The 2 of Wands is the foundation for building our...

Sheila Reads and writes Happy Full Moon! Coming in hot early this Friday morning. Not to brag, but I'm going to be out of office for the next 24 hours, spending Beltane with Florence and the Machine. (Hello Atlanta! I am in you.) I did the writing update section of this newsletter first, but I had to laugh when I drew the 4 of Swords for our collective reading as well. It feels like we're working with a theme here. Good ol' Scorpio energy, it's as subtle as a sledgehammer. The 4 of Swords...

Sheila Reads and writes Happy New Moon! Welcome to all the new faces! If this is your first email from me, I'm sorry to say that this bi-monthly author newsletter is not like other girls. She's a feral little gremlin gram, full of witchy ramblings, typos and the unfettered neurodivergence that is way more obvious when I don't have an editor. Nevertheless, this is the place where I reveal news first and I promise you will want to hang around for a minute for REASONS. I'm a day late for the new...

Sheila Reads and writes Happy full moon! I don't know about all of you, but for me, January has managed to feel both like it passed in the blink of an eye and like it was approximately 182 years long. Somehow, we are ushering in a new month with a full moon in Leo. Leo is enthusiastic, courageous, and creative. It delivers energy that can help us break out of ruts and move forward with purpose. I had to laugh when I drew the Temperance card for our collective full moon reading. If you have...
