Sheri Barker

Sheri Barker

Sheri Barker has been a solitary practitioner for nearly forty years. Her relationships with magic, elemental energies, spirits, and her ancestors are the foundation of her daily life. They enrich her work as a witch, writer, homesteader, wildlife enthusiast, gardener, and human being. She is a columnist at The Wild Hunt (https://wildhunt.org) and also publishes perspective essays on her blog at https://www.onthebearpath.com. Sheri lives in an ancient river valley in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina, immersed in nature, spirits, and realms beyond this one. Oh, and books...there are always books, words, and creative activities to be explored!

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Robin Wood Tarot, by Robin Wood, published by Llewellyn Publications.

Card: Ten (10) of Cups

This week may offer some welcome respite from the stress and woes of the past few weeks. Sharing a bit of joy, peace, and love within familial bonds and groups is likely to figure prominently. Even in situations that have been contentious—especially those involving family—the potential exists for harmony, though it may only be temporary. There is also likely to be a tad more abundance, as well as opportunities for accessing those components involved in achieving a healthy level of contentment.

Conversely, disappointment and sadness are particularly when the expectations of the actions and behavior of others are set too high. Realistic expectations are one way to avoid this. Feeling disrespected, ignored, or taken advantage of could lead to self-isolation and amplify those feelings. Dissatisfaction within relationships has the probability of creating an insurmountable gulf of disharmony if common ground cannot be found with new terms negotiated.
