The Drum Corps International World ChampionshipsOld Soul Mermaid2022-08-17 | This video is a departure from my normal fare, but this video documents our recent trip to Indianapolis to attend the Drum Corps International World Finals to see our youngest son perform with the Blue Devils, an elite drum corps. This trip was bitter sweet for us because it is the last time we will see our son perform and compete on the competitive scene. This was his age out year and marks the end of his competitive marching career…though he still has one more semester of Longhorn (party) band before he graduates this fall!
There is no sound of the performance footage (just my voiceover) due to copyright, but down below will be a link to the Blue Devils’ channel showing their Victory Run performance for those who are interested.

**Contact me At oldsoulmermaid@gmail.com**Even More Decks Leaving My Collection 2022 | Spring Cleaning and Deck Declutter Part 3!Old Soul Mermaid2022-05-13 | Yes… there are more decks set to leave my collection. All of these decks are beautiful and served me well. But now it’s time to let some new energy in.
In just the very few years that I’ve been working with the Tarot, there have been many changes in my internal landscape and I’m trying to curate a collection that reflects those changes.
Some of these decks will be sold and some will be given away and it brings me joy to think about the happy soul who finds the deck that may be on their wishlist or the deck that inspires them to try working with a tarot deck for the first time!
As always, thank you for watching and spending time with me!
Contact me at oldsoulmermaid@gmail.comMore Decks Decks Leaving My Collection 2022 Part 2 | Spring Cleaning Continues!Old Soul Mermaid2022-05-10 | The spring cleaning continues as I work to clear my space and find decks that need to leave my collection and find new homes to work their magic in. These are all beautiful and magical decks that helped on my journey when I needed them and they are all valuable tools to work with. But, alas…as humans we change and it’s a good thing we do because I would sure hate to be walking around in the hair style I wore in high school!
Let me know what decks you have purged from your collection and if any of the decks shown here are favorites of yours.
As always, thank you for for watching and spending time with me!

Some of these will be given away, but most will be sold to my local Half Price Books. If you are in the greater Austin area…be on the lookout!
These decks are all wonderful and served me when I needed them, but the time has come to send them on their way so that they can help someone else on their personal tarot/oracle journey and studies.
This is a long video, so graphic yourself a snack!
Let me know in the comments below if you have been doing some Spring cleaning!

This video contains no tarot content, so please feel free to pass this by if this content does not interest you (I will not be offended 😉). But… from here on out, this channel is going to contain a mix of other content in addition to tarot. I’ll try to title my videos appropriately.

***Contact me*** oldsoulmermaid@gmail.comI’ve Changed My Mind! Seeing A Deck With New Eyes.Old Soul Mermaid2022-04-22 | Yes, it is a woman’s prerogative to change her mind, but I feel especially humbled when I finally gave this deck the chance it deserved and worked with it for a substantial amount of time.
One of the downfalls of having a deck collection is not giving some of our decks the time they deserve to bond with them. Once acquired, we play with them for a bit and then set them aside for the newest and brightest new deck.
So, in this video I’m sharing my experience in working with a deck that I was a bit underwhelmed when I filmed my initial unboxing of this deck. Thank goodness for second chances!
Let me know if you have had a change of heart about a deck! And as always, thank you for watching and spending time with me!

Here’s the long winded lowdown…Old Soul Mermaid2022-04-13 | Hi, y’all! In this long winded video, I explain why I haven’t been uploading to YouTube and what I’ve been doing. I filmed most of this at the very end of February and it’s taken me this long to finish it and to get enough courage to upload it. With everything that’s going on in the world, I feel that this video and my issues are so trivial and unimportant, but I’m just letting you know that I’m very uncertain about the future of this channel and very conflicted about it for reasons divulged in the video.
Regardless of what I decide, I want to thank all my subscribers and viewers for your kindness and support…it means so much!
