Apologies to followers of our podcast. I (Leo) am attempting National Novel Writing Month and it's eating up my podcast editing time.

In this first show of the new series Leo & Sue introduce the enneagram as a tool for personality typing and greater understanding of ourselves.

We introduce the three triads of types and we take a brief look at each type in turn. We introduce the idea of stress and security points and also the concept of wings.

Just A Quick Update Update

Hi,

We're just going to need a couple more days before we've had time to sit down and record our Tarot review show for the first season. In the show we'll be talking about Leo's first reading (that he did, not that he had). We'll be talking about the resources available to you on the Internet. And we'll be taking a look forward to our next series of Podcasts.

It should be up by next Wednesday at the very latest, but hopefully we'll get some time to cast tomorrow.

As the Minor Arcana draws to a close Leo & Sue take a look at the suit which undeniably possesses the most downbeat imagery. Also, like wands, it's a bit hard to pin down what a sword actually represents, not like those nice cups. So the chat tries to pin down what exactly we're talking about here and then walks through the cards as usual. We also warm up with a discussion of the impending Major Arcana which will start from next week's show.

In this week's episode Leo & Sue examine the suit of Wands. We're talking about spiritual growth and a sense of self, we're starting to cross reference the numbers on the cards and we're finding that the subtleties really start to emerge when you hit the intellectual side of the suit cards.

Hi all.

Sue and I were all sat down to go through wands last night ready to post today's podcast and Sue's chair exploded. Well, it fell apart. Anyway she's got a couple of bumps but overall she seems fine. So, basically, we didn't get round to recording last night. We're going to attempt to record later on today and hopefully have the new cast up later but if not later then tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!

In the first show Mr & Mrs Monkey cover their basic approach to talking about this highly fascinating but sometimes controversial subject.

We talk about who we are and where we come from with regards to the Tarot.

We explain why the Tarot is not evil.

We explain why the Tarot is not a replacement for serious psychiatric help if that's what's needed.

We explain what to expect from a reader and a reading and how much to pay if you do decide to pay. We also explain that it's really up to the querent how much to pay and how to avoid being taken for a ride.

We explain who this podcast is intended for and how the rest of the shows will pan out.

We welcome any comments you may have on our show. Reader comments will be addressed starting with Episode 3. Enjoy the cast!
