HFO Rubbercut by Me, Nov 9, 2021 Who is the Fox of Hearth Fox Oracle? You know, I wasn't even into foxes before 2017.  They were pretty, and I had seen a living one in a field once from the car when I was little, but they just weren't on my radar. Then I got pregnant with my final kid.  Final--hopefully a girl--kid.  A fox spirit started showing up and I was immediately hooked--in love with foxes!  I crocheted a giant stuffed fox for my kids, inspired by the fox from The Little Prince .   Giant Fox Stuffy by Me, 2017 (which we still have--still in one piece!) I hyper foxcus (I looked away while typing "focus" and that's the word that my fingers went with, lol).  Yeah, I hyper focused on foxes.  I learned about real foxes, and all of the different colors they can be.  How some like to climb, and all of the crazy sounds they make, and how smelly they are, their diet and habitats.  I crocheted a baby blanket in orange and white and realized...

Shoot, one of my earliest pleasant memories was being a baby or toddler and looking up from a bed or a pen in the living room, at people who were slightly glowing and see-through. Ancestors.

 A client made a trade for a session with me recently, and I'm now in the possession of The Wild Unknown Pocket Tarot by Kim Karns.  I love it.  Cute and easier to shuffle than the original.  I'm not sure if I'm going to make a pouch for this one or not, because I really like the tin it came in. I've been shuffling this deck for a couple of days now.  Time to ask it some questions: 1) What can you help me with?    2 of Swords - Decision Making. 2) What is your personality like?  Are you blunt, gentle?    "Necessary"  "Forgiving"  The Hanged Man.  Okay, so blunt, but not a total asshole.  3) What is your area of focus?  Money, healing, relationships, those sort of things.
