I am your inner voice, your intuitive self, that part of you that allows intimacy and the expression of emotion and love. My gift to you is just that - of intimacy and love. (From Joan Bunning) affirmation: "I trust in my inner voice and act accordingly." ~~~~~ Consciousness (Ace of Clouds/Swords) I manifest as the Power of Air - of thought and all mental activities.

(From Joan Bunning) affirmation: "I move from a position of trust and security." ~~~~~ The Tarot Connection - The Tarot Podcast dedicated to the traditional, historic and modern Tarot.
