caffinated

add me!
I used to use DJ a looong time ago and I have just recently come back to it. Anyway, here are a couple of things about me:

- I'm 25 and a native of New Orleans (Happy Mardi Gras, btw)
- I just moved to upstate NY to pursue a Masters Degree in Linguistics
- I speak fluent Spanish and a little German
- I read tarot cards and I'm starting to do it professionally
- I am the owner of the cutest Chihuahua in the world
- I am an Anthropology nerd
- I have a weakness for all things make-up, hippopotamus and vanilla

If you want to know more, just ask or check out my info. =)

I don't have any friends yet and I would like to get to know people that share common interests.

	Which decks do you use? I also read tarot and have developed a small collection of decks. I'm far from a professional reader, don't really feel like becoming one (as in one who charges) either. Although, I'm a bit out of practice because I don't read my own cards. (Reply to this) (Thread)

I've gathered a small collection, myself, including:

-The Mythic Tarot (Greek Mythology theme;my first deck)
-Tarot de los Muertos (Day of the dead theme)
-Tarot Universal Dalí (This one is my fave, by far)
-The Whimsical Tarot (Based on nursery rhymes!)
-Ride-Waite-Smith (both regular sized and tiny)

After 8 years of reading Tarot, I never really had the desire to read professionally before now. I just figured why not make a few bucks doing something that I love, ya know?

I have The Sacred Circle tarot, the Archeon deck, The Gilded tarot, Revelations tarot, the Rohrig tarot, and the Thoth deck. All were gifted to me in some way and yeah, some speak to me more than others so I tend to use certain ones more than others (Archeon and Sacred Circle are my main decks). As I said, I'm out of practice, need more people to ask for readings.

I'll add you, though you do seem familiar. Were we friended at some point?

	I really want the Gilded Tarot! The artwork is just beautiful! I know what you mean about some speaking to you. In fact, the meanings of some cards may actually differ a little depending on which deck I'm using. I tend to read intuitively. I don't think that we were friended on DJ. Maybe we bumped into each on LJ, Myspace or in a past life. Who knows? =) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I used to read Tarot but not much lately. And I loves vanilla! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I would take really long breaks before I got into it again. Vanilla is, indeed, the best. =) (Reply to this) (Parent)
