Before unfolding and reading Wish Thirteen on January 2, I drew cards for insight: “How will my wishes manifest in 2026?” Less a chronological and more a procedural spread, the 12 cards showed me how wishes are about habits; fulfilling them is a labor of love. New habits comport changing behaviors inflecting proportions of action, […]

My sister MG, introduced me to to Janet Selby, who is an excellent therapeutic massage practitioner. Recently, Janet needed some graphic design help. We agreed to a trade: I would create her business cards, […]
Flaming Wishes
This year, I lived by the moon and with candle light. Every time I lit a candle, I imagined literally holding the light, handling it. I offered light for peaceful transitions, in meditations, during card readings, at ceremonies, in promise, and remembrance. I light candles to help set other things on fire: sage, paper, dried […]

New Moon 10.21.25
Each lunar cycle, I read from my annual forecast under the new moon. The cards are always crystal clear, and Tuesday’s reading was as accurate as ever. The Death card is in the mix. It was a busy day before I turned to my cards, though. Grocery shopping, a car wash and a quick trip […]

What they said…
Thank you to the querants who offered a review of my services! Here are a couple recent comments offered by my Tarot clients. S.R. Said… I’ve had three readings by Jo and each time I was humbled by her gift. I found the readings to be so impactful that I continued to revisit my notes […]

The Black Joe Cake
A Parable wrapped in a celebration.The Black Joe Cake (BJC) has been at birthday tables all my life. For twenty-five years, I baked BJCs for other people as a performance called SURPRISE! I BROUGHT CAKE! The one-sentence, scripted show would appear with no forewarning at invited parties, art openings, and other gatherings. In all those […]
who WERE you?
I just love this 1978 video of The Who, recording Who Are You? Look how young and enthusiastic they are about the sounds they are raising! I think of this song when I offer clients the the Who WERE You Exercise (WWYE). Who? Who? Who? Who? The WWYE asks Tarot querrants to identify with a […]
Three Towers
When towers fall, expect an abrupt change of circumstance; all the comforts of well-built walls, homes secured and defended, and crowns assumed are blasted to pieces by divine light. Everyone walks away, but the past’s monuments to success are nothing but rubble. I pulled Tower cards from the Rust Belt Arcana (RBA), Hermetic Tarot (HT), […]

Why “Jeaux”?
Jeaux. It’s a funny way to spell my name. Why? It’s a long story. My sister MG and I traveled to Paris and stayed with her dear friend named Scott; she had a joyful habit of calling him Scott-Oh! Because it is always such a lovely surprise to see him and say his name. I […]
My Tarot Habits
I have a Tarot Habit. Every day, I draw five cards as a forecast of the day. My daily throw gives me an opportunity to express gratitude to my guides and gather wisdom from my ancestors. Some days, I will pull three more cards at sunset too. I might read for insight on something that […]
Some Reasons for Readings
Make Tarot a habit! How often and when should you get a reading? Wisdom on the question varies. I read quarterly for some clients, divining three months into the future. I have a client who stacks her tarot readings with her tax payments. Checking in with the Tarot on equinoxes and solstices provides transitional insights […]
Officiating Services
My ministry serves the singular purpose of permitting me the privilege of witnessing performative utterances. My pleasure in officiating emerges from my faith in the power of language to get things done. When you speak a promise out loud and mean it, you change the terms of your relationship to another person. The same is […]
Suggested Best Practices for Querents
Some aspects of our time together are fixed: we will start on time, and end on time. Since we will be on the clock, we want our time to be as productive as possible. Arrive prepared. Bring thoughtful questions that offer opportunities for direction. I consider the following guidance best practices for querents. Before booking […]
Yes? No? Threaux!

They often come with uncanny book and film recommendations, and references to interesting art. I might suggest personal gestures or actions to take if you want to strengthen resolve in difficult times, celebrate joyous happenings, or grieve a […]
