Solar Powering Queens Park, Moonee Ponds


Here we are at our first meeting to discuss the possibility of Solar Powering the Bowling Club, the Park, the Cafe House and Swimming Pool at Queens Parks in Moonee Ponds.
Someone had the idea, someone has the expertise, someone has the money and it takes everyone to come together to make it happen.
Keep an eye on these developments!

Here I am with Natalie at the Tarot in Action stall at the recent Australian Bridal Services Expo May 2010 at the Melbourne Exhibition Building.
We were upgraded to a much bigger site which was a bonus for us and we had plenty of space to have our card tables set up to do Tarot Readings for all the brides to be and her bridesmaids over the weekend, we also had a tressle table set up to display some wares.
I had a great weekend, I'm sure Natalie did too!

Sydney Mind Body & Spirit May 2010

Ruanna and Barbara
Here I am with a good psychic friend of mine Barbara at the Mind Body & Spirit Festival in Sydney May 2010. Barbara is from Sydney.
We catch up when I go up to the Sydney MBS Festivals or when she comes down to the Melbourne MBS Festivals.

The weather was lovely all weekend, and I cannot believe how quickly the time just quickly went, I worked all the 4 days from 10am - 7pm.
On the Saturday 15 May the whole harbour was a-buzz with the return of Jessica Watson's world sailing trip on her little boat elle. Stunning efffort little girl, at 16 years of age!

The Haunted Bookshop Ghost Tour

Here we all are at the Haunted Bookshop in Melbourne all ready to go and see some Ghosts. We didnt see any thank goodness, but we sure did hear some great stories about haunted buildings.

We found out where the 1st markets were, that Federation Square was Melbourne's first morge, the red light districts was in La Trobe St just behind where all the Horses and carriages were housed in the garages.
I was amazed to walk down quiet laneways in Melbourne's Central Business District that I've never walked down before. We encountered a lot of old buildings, like the Old State Title Office and the Old Forensic Medicine Buikdings, funnily enough all added up to 13!!
I also noticed how many lights went on or off. Maybe the Ghosts were saying hello to David our Tour guide, he does this tour every Saturday night!
We walked for about 2 hours, ended with a walk through Flagstaff Gardens and Victoria Markets that once were Cemeteries and I suppose still are because the bodies are still there!

Tasmania's Mind Body and Soul Festival 2010


Here I am with my travelling buddy Miss Shaki in Launceston Tasmania, doing Tarot readings at the Mind Body and Soul Festival. It is held every year over the Moomba Weekend.

It was a wonderful experience, I could feel the softer Soul of this Festival in Tasmania compared to the stronger Spirit of the Mind Body & Spirit Festivals in Australia.

Gypsy readings on the Tall Ship, The Amsterdam


Here I am with my little friend Amanda, who looked after me all night, on the Tall Ship called The Amsterdam. The Amsterdam is making her way around Australia, from Sydney she has travelled down to Victoria and was parked at Williamstown Workshop Pier for a few days before heading off to Adelaide next.

I was very lucky and felt very priviledged to be on board such a beautiful Tall Ship. There were up to 40 sailors, boys and girls that ran and looked after the ship. What a wonderful way for them to travel around the world.

I was hired for the evening to do roaming Gypsy Tarot Readings for all the VIPs and guest which was a lot of fun! There were also artists and jugglers entertaining the guests, as well as yummy morsels of food and drinks of course. Aye ye matie har har!!
