1. I’ve been absent for some time, but now I rmeember why I used to love this blog. Thank you, I’ll try and check back more often. How frequently you update your site?

2. just wanted to cmmneot on DAVID HENNESSY for a kid he was GREAT really ..of course I have watched more or DS than we’re at here and with ALL THE CHARACTERS he played wow he’s great..but from what I can get checking on line here he never went any further than DS once it was OVER that was that seems he put it all behind and eventually got married and is running some restaurant has kids too so who knows?? guess he does okay though ..I have never heard of him even going to those reunions either interesting..i think..

3. I would love to have the oppertunity to get ahold of your Book of Shadows Tarot ealreir than the US release! First off, I must note that I’m am not very lucky and have never won anything at Chinese Auctions, from the lottery, and the likes. Knowing that you are going to deliberately select winners makes me feel that my chances are much higher here than in the standard games of chance. ;]I would love to have the oppertunity to get my hands on a copy of your deck before it’s release so that I have a chance to have a more personal connection with the cards than I would with the guidebook in hand. If I was luckily chosen to be one of the few to recieve the deck, I feel I would have adequate time to bond with the cards on a more personal level prior to recieving the companion book and being able to enforce or encorporate your own wonderful meanings and nuances with the cards.I would like to win the As Above deck from you because it would be my first non-systems based Tarot that I would own! As is has a Pagan and Wiccan theme to it, I feel I could much better adapt to it, as I have been studying and practicing the Pagan and Wiccan spiritual paths for a few years now. Raised a Protestant, growing up surrounded by Catholics, and realizing I didn’t believe in any form of Christianity really took a toll on my Spiritual life and nature. The discovery of Tarot is what prompted my discovery of Wicca, Paganism and Magick, and it seems quite fitting for me to work with a Tarot deck which resonates with these spiritual teachings. There are many Wiccan/Pagan decks on the market, but none of them have called to me as your Book of Shadows Tarot decks have. I’m still a-searching for that special deck that will speak to me. I am not a hoarder of decks, I only have a relatively small collection of the ones I have really taken a liking to and regardless of if I am chosen, your two Book of Shadows decks will be joining my collection (I can’t help but to hope for sooner, rather than having to wait until later!). =]I am intrigured by your Book of Shadows Tarot idea of the dual-deck production. This element of design really speaks to me, and is something I feel other Pagan/Wiccan based decks are lacking. Most of these decks either portray every-day life events for the particular spirituality or purely spiritual qualities. The ones that incorporate both, do not have an appropriate balance. Your remedy of having the As Above deck depicting the Spiritual, and the As Below deck depicting the Physical gives the spiritual path a much needed balance!Your idea behind the Courts is also very innovative and still complete. Some Wiccan/Pagan decks leave the Courts at Maiden, Mother and Crone, eliminating the Page/Princess. With your inclusion of the Elemental as the Page/Princess, the standard of 4 Court Cards per suit remains while still keeping the Threefold aspects of the Triple Goddess intact! I would love to have an early chance to work with such a new and complete way of working with the Pagan/Wiccan themed Court Cards! I can only imagine how many doorways and links the new presentation will achieve.I also love that your As Above deck has the inclusion of the Sabbats! I cannot say I’ve seen such a direct link to the Pagan and Wiccan Celebrations of the Wheel of the Year included in any Pagan/Wiccan themed decks thus far. I cannot wait to see how you mix the traditional major arcana themes into the themes of our Sabbats!I wish to have your As Above deck before it’s release due to the art-work I’ve seen thus far. I cannot say I’ve ever seen a multi-artist deck that has ever appealed to me. I find that the cards I’ve seen of your As Above creation have a definite unity and harmony that the multi-artists decks I’ve seen definately lack. I feel that with you working with multiple artists will really allow their strengths to shine, and diminish the chance of them reaching for inspiration. Everyone has seen decks where some of the images are perfectly wonderful, to flip through the deck and find some cards are complete duds! I’m excited to see what new meaning can be brought to Pagan and Wiccan spiritual teachings through these multiple artists interpretations. Not only this, but the style of the artwork I have seen I find highly impressive. The cards imagry seems perfectly balanced with light and shadow. There is a happy and estatic feeling, mixed with a somber seriousness. Most spiritual decks are either bogged down with heavy serious images, or are lifted up unrealisticaly with an everything is wonderful glow. The cards from the As Above deck seem to have the depth of duality that other spiritual decks are missing. Getting ahold of this deck would provide a much needed balance to my readings!Finally, I must note that yoir Steampunk Tarot did not intrigue me from what I had seen of it online. When I saw it in store, it called to me, and I responded by purchasing it. Upon physical evaluation of your Steampunk Tarot, I found that I liked it much more than I thought, and your well authored companion book really brought life to the Cards imagry! I cannot wait for the release of your Book of Shadows Tarot decks, as the As Above is really pulling at my heart-strings, and I would love to get a copy prior to the release to see how much more it has to offer from what I’ve seen online!Thank you for giving your followers a chance to win copies of your unreleased As Above Book of Shadows Tarot. It’s really nice to see authors and creators give back to their fans! Enjoy your multiple responses from your fans. Be well & Blessed be!
