Today, September 9, marks the birthday of Mabel Collins (1851–1927) who was a writer, occultist, Theosophist, animal-welfare campaigner… and a woman with a rather fascinating place in the history of Western esotericism. But how much do you know about her? TRIVIA TIME! 1. Mabel Collins wrote more than 40 books, but which spiritual text became her most famous work? A) The Secret Doctrine B) Light on the Path C) The Mystical Qabalah 2. Which famous occultist did Collins work alongside before the relationship spectacularly broke down? A) Pamela Colman Smith B) Aleister Crowley C) Helena Petrovna Blavatsky And here's a bonus question: What on earth does Mabel Collins have to do with a magazine called Lucifer? You'll find the answers, and the rather interesting story behind them, in this month's Month in Magic inside the Skool Classroom. 🗓️ Month in Magic is a FREE resource exploring the people, celebrations, anniversaries and moments that have shaped Tarot, spirituality, occultism, and multi-faith beliefs and traditions around the world. From mystics and Tarot creators to sacred festivals, spiritual traditions and some wonderfully unexpected stories, there’s always another reason to look at the calendar a little differently. Head into the Classroom → Month in Magic and discover what else September has waiting for you. Because sometimes an ordinary date has a rather extraordinary story behind it.

Sometimes you don't need another general reading. You have something specific happening in your life, a question you keep returning to, or a situation you would simply like to explore from another perspective. You can now book a private Tarot reading with me directly through the Skool Classroom, with three options depending on how much you'd like to explore: ⭐ The Star — One Question For one meaningful question when you're seeking clarity, hope, or gentle guidance around a particular situation. 🌙 The Moon — Up to Three Questions For when there's a little more to unpack. Explore several areas of your life, look at one situation from different angles, or let one question naturally lead into another. ☀️ The Sun — Up to Six Questions Our most expansive reading, giving us time to explore several areas of your life, follow patterns and connections as they emerge, and go more deeply into what matters to you. Questions can explore love and relationships, career and purpose, family and home, money and resources, travel and change, creativity, spirituality, personal growth, or simply whatever is taking up space in your life right now. And you don't need to arrive with the “perfect” Tarot question. If all you know is “THIS is what I'm dealing with...help!”, we can start there. I'll help you turn what's on your mind into open-ended questions that give the cards room to explore. 📅 Once you've purchased your reading through the Classroom, send me a private DM here on Skool with a few dates and times that work for you. We'll arrange a time together, and your reading can take place on an agreed platform.
