I love it, Christine, i LOVE it! Such a well-written, entertaining, insightful piece, topped with beautiful illustrations (all of them) and your video from the Throne was the best! Although I did shadow work some years back, new (old) ones can pop up again and again when least expected.
Gorgeous card deck, too. I saw it on your website last week (I had a sneaky peek and thought it was a really cool idea!).
Yummm, Thank you, Jo. You've lifted my slightly slumpy heart today. And thanks for checking out my deck... the entire collection is nearly here on Substack, for free, Throne videos, warts and all. More to come!
Such a wonderful practice! No surprise, the first one out the door today was the Little Girl who carries my immense Book of Shadows. It’s black with gold, a gorgeous, ornate, creepy looking thing that you’d think is too big for her. She just hugs is close to her chest. She almost never speaks but she does occasionally let me read an entry from The Book. That book holds my long-buried memories.
No “new” ones today, but some new perspectives on things I haven’t looked at in awhile. 🌚👻🕸️
I’m loving the perspective of the card cover. If I’m viewing it from within the closet, the silhouette of Me opening the door also looks like a shadow… Thank you for sharing this invitation.
…i think i am becoming shadow obsessed…my shadow is starting to have a shadow…embracing all parts is just the start of wielding our wands and performing the puppet but it is hard…i tell myself i don’t want my ugly bits and then remember that is my ugly bits saying that and then that becomes a bit for some unperformable standup…all this to say thank you shadow…
…for now i just have the energy for thumb typed dog walk comedy…good stage…tough crowd though…they barely understand me and just want to smell eachother’s butts while eating rabbit turds…

aww I’m happy to hear that, Christine. Looking forward to see what’s coming!
Beautifully written, Christine. Thank you for the shout-out. This deck of yours looks amazing!! I love the closet door concept as well.
Thank you, Kaitlyn 🥰 So wonderful to share with like-minded souls like you here on Substack.
what a brilliant deck! And, yes, Phil Stutz is great isn't he? I loved the documentary about him in Netflix.
Thank you, Dr. Rachel- I wasn't aware of that doc! On my list.

Your shadow has a shadow, hugging those ugly bits - you're dancing with some Jedi level shadow play, sir! Very worthy of standup, Mr. Foote.

Haha!!! 😆
I'm all aglow with your lovely comment, Tasha. Well said! And very brave. Will you please let us know how it goes with the Closet Door?
