New Moon Messages: Oracle Card Pull, Soul Reading Story & New Kits

I lay in bed this morning and it came to me: I want to make today's blog more of a conversation, rather than just a set of headlines, like I had planned. That's more interesting and personal to me, and I hope to you too.

I could tell from last moon's blog that you really liked the Pick-A-Card so I'll do more of those, maybe once a month. And you LOVED sending me your birthdate/chart info for a free mini-moon reading. If you want more of this I may set up a small paid version for the new/full moons - lemmeno!

You also didn't appear to enjoy my radical zine museletter - too off topic, perhaps?

Here in SoCali things are heating up...yet, I can feel the BIG ONE coming... El Nino, that is ie. lots of rain, but not til Fall.

For my Omen Days Psychic Predictions for 2026 for June I had seen a hawk returning home to it's nest after a few years absence.

Are you coming home to your true self? 

I am; in the realization that I don't need to JUSTIFY myself - I am me, and that's enough. I will continue to be a soul reader, no matter what, even when times are slow...like now. (I gained this realization from reading one of the Seth books, which I adore, to heat up my intuition- they were channeled by Jane Roberts in the 60's and 70's).

With the New Moon in Gemini it's time to face fears and find harmony. Please enjoy the Valerian above growing in my front garden and info from the Cat Herbal guidebook below.

Valerian Cat is my mom's favorite cat in the deck and she has the original on the wall facing her bed. 

From the Guidebook

Valerian is calming, protective, and helpful in dealing with fear that blocks creativity and self expression. You can also make Valerian into love sachets and charms to guard against evil.  It is the 'herbe of witches' and beneficial as a Dark Moon tea for scrying, exploring reincarnation and any fears you have around loss of self and boundaries.

How a Soul Reading Brought Hope During a Time of Change

Judgement Mermaid by Kathy Crabbe (Siren Song Mermaid Tarot)

Judgement Mermaid by Kathy Crabbe (Siren Song Mermaid Tarot)

Next up is a snippet from a dear return client's testimonial of a new reading I created which is more of an ongoing mentorship experience. Jennifer L. smartly and kindly wrote out an extended analysis of her reading in response to my email asking 'how it resonated'.  This is something I do with all clients, not only because I'm really curious, but also to clear up any questions/confusions you might have. More importantly this helps you sit with your reading and break it down into what worked and didn't work which helps the reading settle, be digested, and allows you to learn all you can from the experience.

"The reading spoke a lot about grounding and self-care, which are both very important to me."

"There's a part of me that worries about the future, but something tells me, intuitively, things will be ok."

"There is comfort in going through the transition knowing I have that gift — power — strength."

"I've always had a strong intuition... I've been trying to get better at understanding signs and messages... maybe I should just let go, let things happen, and trust that inner knowing."

"In all the turmoil, I guess, my take-aways from this reading are to trust my intuition and know that I'm supported, and good things will unfold in time. While I don't really have answers, I have hope, so thank you.

How To: Radical Acts of Resistance

My first-ever zine fair booth at 60!

Zomics Zine Fair Booth

My booth at the Zomics: Comics & Zine Fair, Wignall Art Museum, Chaffey College, Rancho Cucamonga, CA

My First Zine Fair at 60 

I've been making handmade books, magazines, newspapers, and zines (self-published magazines) since I was a wee one, so I was absolutely thrilled to finally gather together a collection of the zines I've created this year for the Zomics Festival of Comics and Zines at Wignall Art Museum, Chaffey College in Rancho Cucamonga, California, last week — my very first zine fair at age 60!

Ever since I was little in the 1970s, I knew that screens like TVs were 'evil'. I watched and railed against my little brother who I felt was far too enmeshed in screens. Later, I had the words to describe what this meant; screens could be addicting.

When I watched Wim Wenders 1991 movie Until the End of the World, my worst fears came to life. In it, the character's dreams were cast onto a screen, and they could not look away; lost completely in a dream world.

I created my Go Analog Af zine as a fuck you to the billionaires that steal our souls to fill their pockets through the screens of phones, computers and tv monitors. If you object to the word fuck, don't buy this zine.

How to Call Upon the Dead

This next zine was inspired by my work as a professional psychic-medium over the last 20 years. Especially when I first realized I could contact the dead during my training in an English Traditional Healing Circle. It was life-changing to know that the dead still live on as souls. The cover was inspired by a dream I had about the ancestors which I compiled into a best selling book. I also included quotes from an actual book I'm writing about our human and animal ancestors illustrated with hybrid creatures.

Second Saturn Return

Last year, during my second Saturn Return (an astrological transit we all undergo around age 60), I undertook a second maturation process, because yes, Saturn is THE Queen of maturation processes. During my first Saturn return at age 30, my entire business plan for Lulu Design, my silk art business came to me in a rebirthing session and for the next 30 years, I proudly became a full-time artist and soul reader. 

If you want to delve more deeply into your own major life transits I offer readings here.

At 60, it's not about how we fit into the world by making a living it's more about the legacy we leave behind, as we enter this last phase of life. For me, art has always been my lifeline beyond words. I am passionate about color. It's my religion, so to speak. At age 40 (Uranus Opposition), I became of service through my psychic mediumship, which involved words of healing and service to others.

Now at 60, I want to make objects so I can share my words combined with my art. Zines have taken center stage. Zines are small, self-published, punk rock, radical acts of resistance and passion that fight against the systems of oppression that keep us small and disconnected from each other.  Zines are anti capitalist. They are for the people and by the people and are often traded or given away.

DIY Energy: It's Everything


My first zine fair was amazing. I felt that energy - that fight, that spirit of DIY and DIT (do it together) alive and well in those who make, by hand, their passion come alive through small handheld objects of words and art.

What I love about the process of making zines is that it's down and dirty - fast - I can draw with markers and crayons and write in cartoon bubbles and swear and cut and paste to make something that is real and tangible and handheld, not precious. Hell, it's $2 at a fair, or traded, or even free.  It gets the work out there, it's freedom, it's fun, it's survival, it's everything. It's a way to stay true to self in an AI, influencer, screen addicted, billionaire psychopath, death cult world, which is voluntarily designed to keep us enslaved and addicted.

Zine Structures

During the Zomics Fair I was surrounded by many alt-thinking folks sharing their self-published zines, pins, stickers, art and weirdness. I spent the whole day making connections and had a blast!

So far this year, I've completed nine different zine structures from my favorite zine-making book, Whatcha Mean What's a Zine?  Above, are some of the zines I brought to the fair.

Here is what participants shared:

“Kat was absolutely wonderful! She created such a calm, safe, and beautiful space for us and everyone enjoyed themselves thoroughly.”

Ancestor Readings: Messages and Guidance from the Spirit World

For over twenty years, psychic medium and artist Kathy Crabbe has offered intuitive readings and mediumship sessions, helping clients reconnect with their intuition, ancestors, and spirit guides.

There is something deeply moving about ancestor work. Even after they have left the physical world, those who came before us may continue to guide, protect, and encourage us. An ancestor reading can open a doorway to that unseen support—revealing messages, wisdom, and sometimes surprising insights from the lineage that walks beside you.

If you feel called to explore guidance from your ancestors or connect with your spirit guides, you can schedule a personal session to receive messages, insights, and support directly for your path.

Many clients are surprised by how personal these readings can be. For Kaitlyn, I created a channeled illustrated zine filled with intuitive drawings and messages from her ancestors. This is a new offering I provide only by request and when I feel guided to do so. Each zine is completely unique, reflecting the personality, symbols, and guidance of the spirits who step forward during the reading.

☽ ✧ ☾


What Is an Ancestor Reading?


In an ancestor reading I connect with the spirits of those who have passed on—family members, loved ones, and sometimes guiding spirits who wish to step forward with messages of wisdom, healing, or reassurance.

Often people come to these sessions hoping to hear from a specific ancestor. Sometimes that ancestor appears, and sometimes another voice from the lineage steps forward—often someone the client most needs to hear from, even if they don’t recognize the name right away.

During a reading I may see, hear, or feel the presence of an ancestor or spirit guide. I often receive symbols, impressions, names, and messages that help identify who is coming through.

Sometimes I will also share a meditation or channeled exercise so that you have actionable tools to continue working with your ancestral guidance after the reading.

Ancestors are family members—or sometimes close friends—who have passed away but choose to come through with messages of support. I will often request specific information from the ancestor so that you can positively identify them.

Spirit guides may also appear during a session. These guides can be wise teachers or guardians from another dimension who offer protection and insight. They may appear as ancestral spirits, animal totems, angels, or nature spirits acting as spiritual counselors during times of need.

For many people, these readings bring a profound sense of reassurance—knowing they are watched over and loved by those who truly care for their well-being.

Seeing the Messages in Action: Kaitlyn’s Reading


After her reading, my client Kaitlyn asked a thoughtful question about something that came through during our session. With her permission, I’m sharing a small part of that conversation here.

Kaitlyn:
"I’m curious to hear your take on the part of the reading where they all had a nervous system reaction when looking into U.S. politics. My assumption is that people in the spirit world no longer experience negative emotions. From your experience, do certain types of trauma seem to stay with people after death?"

Kathy:
Those are such interesting questions.

My sense is that while the physical body has ceased to exist, the soul is still very much alive. When I receive messages during a reading, I translate what I’m perceiving into human language so that we can understand it.

I can’t say exactly what spirits feel or whether they experience emotions the same way humans do. But I do believe that trauma can become part of a soul’s experience and memory. When ancestors communicate, they may reference those experiences in ways that help us understand the message they want to convey.

As a medium, I simply receive and share what comes through in the clearest way I can.

Kaitlyn:
"That explanation makes sense—to convey a message to you, they showed themselves responding in a certain way to current events. But that doesn’t necessarily mean they are emotionally stuck or suffering."

Kaitlyn graciously allowed me to share this exchange because it touches on something important: when spirits communicate, their messages often need to be translated into human understanding.

Highlighting the Zine Experience

Many clients are surprised by how personal these readings can be. For Kaitlyn, I created a channeled illustrated zine filled with intuitive drawings and messages from her ancestors. This is a new, by-request offering that I provide only when a client asks and I feel guided to create it. Each zine is entirely unique, reflecting the personality, symbols, and guidance of the spirits who step forward during the reading.

“Double-page zine spread ‘How to Call Upon the Ancestors’ showing channeled messages and artwork from ancestral spirits.”

Kaitlyn’s Experience

Kaitlyn later shared this reflection about her reading:

”This was my second ancestor reading from Kat. I do a lot of genealogy research, so even though I know facts about my ancestors, these readings give more depth about who they were as people, and how they interact with me now.

I was fortunate to also get a “zine” created by Kat, with channeled images and messages from my ancestors. It felt like getting a tangible gift from the spirit world, and it was so unique to hear from my ancestors in this way.”

☽ ✧ ☾

Preparing for an Ancestor Reading


If you would like to receive an ancestor reading, you are welcome to request a specific ancestor you would like me to connect with.

Please send your questions beforehand and let me know if you would also like suggestions or techniques for connecting with your spirit guides on your own.

When sharing the name of the ancestor, please include only their first name.

During the reading I will do my best to capture whatever messages come through—whether I see, hear, or feel their presence.

Many clients leave these sessions feeling a renewed sense of connection to their lineage, knowing that their ancestors continue to walk beside them in spirit.

Book an Ancestor Reading


If you feel called to reconnect with the wisdom of your ancestors, I would be honored to hold that space for you.

In these sessions I connect with ancestors and spirit guides who wish to step forward with messages, guidance, and healing for your path today.

Each reading is intuitive and unique. Many clients also receive a channeled illustrated zine featuring images and messages from their ancestors—a tangible keepsake from the spirit world.

You may request a specific ancestor, or simply remain open to whoever wishes to come through.
