Let's get together soon. We have a Friday Night Salon at the gallery, which often features tarot reading. We also just started a film series. You should stop by. Christina and Joy, thanks for your nice words. I think my little Ariel would love seeing your boat. Melanie, that would be great! Let’s get together soon.

She sounds like my kind of person. I live on a sailboat named Ariel. She even has a mermaid painted on the stern. I go snorkeling weekly and just love being in the water swimming with the fish. Your daughter might just have this type of life in her future.

I'm surprised Thea does not have my picture book MERMAIDS ON PARADE since I saw you with her at the Mermaid Parade in Coney Island, when I marched with the Superfine Dinettes in 2007 (they star in the book). I would definitely sign the book for her if she did. She might also like my blog about the book. http://mermaidsonparade.blogspot.com Happy New Year!

I collect Kuan Yin images, statues and jewelry. The painting reminds me of some of the Thai Kuan Yin images. I love this painting. I collect Kuan Yin images, statues and jewelry.

It makes perfect sense that she would gravitate to fairy tales and the poignant Little Mermaid story in particular. The original version is layered with meaning and always resonated with me as a child. I'm happy to hear that the story has captivated Ariel-Thea as well. Also, I think her capacity to fantasize and believe she's Ariel is a very good sign for lots of imaginative thinking ahead! :). This is just the beginning! p.s. As you know, Kyra is a Disney Princess girl too--unavoidable. But the girls ("Marilyn and Audrey") will figure it all out in time. Thea is a smart, intense child.

No surprise, huh? Kat, I love that your niece's name is Salome. How cool is that? Frankly, I think I'd have to keep Thea in a cave to avoid the Disney princesses. She thinks they're her friends -- sort of a princess club society thing. Raven, she’s a Pisces with Cancer rising. No surprise, huh?

My 4-year old niece, Salome, is Ariel obsessed as well. (Actually, she's partial to Ariel, but as long as there's some princess involved, she's able to function normally). I loved fairy tales as a child. My favorite was "The Canary Prince," which I learned as a grown-up was penned by Italo Calvino when I rediscovered it in his "Italian Folktales." Bettelheim's "Uses of Enchantment" is also a favorite of mine, and while I like the older Disney's, I just can't get into the new Disney princesses movies. No matter how many times (and it's a LOT of times) Salome subjects us to them! Thanks for the post! It brought back some nice memories of reading when I was little. Oh, Thea Ariel is darling!

I regularly use the Goddess Tarot w/my clients, Kris. It's very popular! Thanks for such a beautiful deck! Is she a Water sign?
