{ Insect Spreading 101 & 102 }

We are offering an excellent class this month - Insect Spreading 101 & 102!! Class is held on October 21st and 22nd from 6:00pm - 8:00 pm, Friday and Saturday evening. 

Our insect and butterfly pinning and framing class will introduce you to the basics of spreading and preserving your own butterfly specimen! We provide two butterflies, three spread beetles and a lovely wooden frame with glass for presentation, as well as all of the tools required - just bring yourself! Professional instruction and hands-on demonstrations for re-hydrating, posing and preserving your butterfly will be provided. You will also learn framing and display techniques for your butterfly during the first class installment.

*Because it takes a while to dry - students will need to come back to pick up their finished piece - and you leave with a specimen that you spread, posed and framed yourself! 

Class is held on Friday and Saturday evening from 6:00pm-8:00pm at Oracle, 130 West 18th Street, KCMO 64108

{ Three Card Monday }

Hi Y'all! I hope you had a good weekend - everybody ready to kick the guts out of this next week? Let's do this thing.

Three of Wands - You have worked hard, but the journey ahead is still a long one, but don't be discouraged...

I think sometimes being able to see that lengthy stretch of path ahead of us can be a little intimidating and even demoralizing, particularly when you are working so hard as it is. Accept that this path you are on will take some time and try to enjoy the walk more. Your thoughts and attitudes about this path have a huge impact on how pleasant a journey it will be for you, so cultivate awareness into every step.

Knight of Swords - CHAOS! UPHEAVAL! - a powerful and creative force which brings magic and shakes things up. 

So, this is awesome! Your environment is about to go through a change - you may not be comfortable with it at first, but being challenged outside of our comfort zones is the very thing that stimulates growth and progress. In the wise words of Comicbookgirl19, EMBRACE THE CHAOS!!

King of Swords - The King seems stern, but only because he has SEEN SOME SHIT and he knows pain - because of this, he doesn't suffer bullshit. Don't get wrapped up in material things because that stuff is garbage and it distracts you from your true path.

This one is for our spiritual enrichment and development. The King of Swords is associated with rationality, fairness and diplomatic action. We are emotional creatures, but sometimes we need to use our analytical intellect to properly suss out a situation. When you get pulled off your path by distracting things, really sit down and assess your needs and keep your BS detector set to STUN.

{ Three Card Monday }

Let's do this.

I wanted to go with the Lenormand Three Card Mystery spread for this week, with our mystery card being Man. In this case, Man represents a masculine energy - an aggressive approach towards moving forward. Perhaps you need to be more assertive in your work environment, or pursue an opportunity that you've been thinking about.

The Ring, representative of partnerships and contracts, in this position the Ring can be actions which should taken this week to make progress. Perhaps acting on an offer - or making one, while also recognizing patterns we might have. 

The Crown is the card we need to change the situation - responsibility, authority, power and management. It's time to take personal responsibility in our quest for forward momentum, rather than waiting around for someone else to champion your efforts,  recognize your value and your skill set and ask for recognition!

We can change two things - either the situation itself, or our perception of the situation. Take charge and kick ass this week.
