Magickal Musings

Description

Raised an only child, I had many interests, most of which centered around spirituality and archaeology. I began reading tarot cards at the age of 14. My mother is very open-minded and had taken a class on reading the cards. However, she couldn't do it so in frustration she threw her cards and the book in the garbage. As Fate would have it, I needed to throw something out immediately after she threw out her cards. As I leaned over to put my trash in the garbage can I saw all these brightly colored cards looking up at me. I asked Mom what they were and I'll never forget what she said, "Oh, just some dumb cards that are supposed to tell your future, but they don't work." I asked if I could have them, she laughed & said, "sure!" And, as they say, the rest is history.

Due to my interests in the spirituality of ancient cultures I went to college for 12 years gathering degrees from Northwestern University (in Evanston, IL.), the University of California at Santa Barbara, and the University of Texas at Austin. I received my BA and MA in Anthropology with an emphasis on Archaeology. My specialty became further defined when I began my doctoral studies in Austin. There, I specialized in the art, religion, and socio-political organization of the ancient Mayan civilization. I received my doctorate in Latin American Studies in 1994.

In the fall of 1993 I met my husband while attending a non-denominational church in Austin, Texas. We began dating in October and were married the following May, just before my graduation.
