My Current Faves

Welcome back to the Rainbow Reflections newsletter.

I don't know about you, but this last week has been all over the place. Maybe it's the end of summer energy in the air, or the back to school mentality that is starting to take hold in the zeitgeist. Either way, it's been a lot to deal with.

For that reason, I thought it'd be fun to keep things lite this week and share some of my current faves with you. Let's get right into it!


My Current FAves

I know for sure I've mentioned this before, but I will bring it up again because it's just that good. The Moonbeaming podcast is a forever fave. Sarah Faith Gottessdiener is an absolute gem of a human and someone I'm proud to call an mentor of mine (she's a mentor from afar and I love it.) 

I learn so much from her podcast and I know you will too if you give it a listen. She covers a variety of topics from running a business, tarot, spirituality, creativity and more. Her most recent podcast episode from yesterday was about shame from a unique lens and it was so powerful. You won't regret listening to her show, I just know it!

 

I've always found SEO intimidating and difficult to implement. Not for lack of trying, I seriously have attempted to learn SEO so many times because I know it would be a really valuable skill to add to my skill set. That being said, it's not something that comes naturally to me, so for years I set it to the side while I pursued other skills I deemed more important.

That is, until SEOSpace.

I can say with certainty that SEO Space is the best SEO tool I have ever used. It has demystified SEO for me, and made ranking on Google so much more accessible for me. You literally click a button, and it gives you tangible to dos that will actually improve your search rankings. How cool is that?! 

I know it works too because after I started using it to implement SEO on my site, I've actually landed clients who discovered me via Google! That's amazing! 

If you have a Squarespace site I highly recommend downloading the plugin and using it. You won't regret it.

 

The Dreamy Moons Tarot is probably my favorite tarot deck I have ever used. It was created by Annie Tarasova, an artist and mystic who I have adoringly followed online since the inception of her business.

I am an avid tarot collector. I have over 40 decks in my personal collection to date. I also know a lot about decks in the market because I am passionate about tarot design and love to see the different ways people interpret deck design.

Annie's deck is really special because it is a fresh and unique take on tarot, while also staying true to the meanings brought forth by the Rider-Waite & Smith deck. I personally find the symbology of the Waite Smith deck extremely deep and valuable and find that it transcends the flaws in the deck (for example: lack of diversity.) Annie's deck takes the original symbology from the Waite Smith deck and expands on it in such meaningful ways. Plus, it's just absolutely stunning, so what's not to love?

If you're looking for a new tarot deck to explore and play with, look no further. 

 

Conclusion

That's it. That's the newsletter. 

I hope you found these current favorites valuable and useful. Let me know if you check any of them out. Until next time, I hope you have a peaceful week ahead.

Wishing you Rainbows,
