Welcome to my world and thanks for visiting.

This website was last updated 7.15.2010. Take a spin around. Recent revisions and renewals orient toward integration and consolidation, combining the various facets of what I continue to do in my professional life: tarot divination readings, tarot seminars and workshops, and novels with a thrust of paranormal suspense, satire, and colorful characters.

Those of you simply curious or more seriously interested in tarot will be interested in the revised Links and About Tarot sections. Readers of my fiction works patiently waiting for my next novel will need to wait a little longer. To complete the trilogy, I am half way through the third and final sequel to Jamayah: Adventures on the Path of Return and its sequel, Collateral Karma. It is now 14 months in the making, but it's sailing along as it unfolds itself to me - wind and spirits willing.

Thanks to the students who take my tarot classes, seekers who find their way for readings and especially readers of my novels. I appreciate your enthusiasm and applaud your encouragement.

SELECTED WORKS

NOVEL

COLLATERAL KARMA
Collateral Karma opens as Rickshaw Lubowski (formerly Bob Kramer in Jamayah), has ditched the Path of Return in search of more tangible things - like sex, drugs, occultism, and sorcery. As a result, he falls victim to a curse cast by an evil leader of a ceremonial cult who practices ritual sex and black magick. Rickshaw’s descent into the world of sensation and desire incurs mysterious nightmares all too real, starting with the obsessively expected death of his new fiancé. Seeking help wherever he can find it, Rickshaw meets a blind fortuneteller who seems to know more about his destiny than anyone should. While fighting for his life and the life of his friends, our hero realizes all too late the bad karma of his ways. Only when Rickshaw loses touch with reality, when his loved ones and Jamayah face almost certain death, does his mentor appear. Together, they join forces with shamanic sorcerers in an attempt to reverse the deadly curse.

JAMAYAH - Adventures on the Path of Return
JAMAYAH is about an “ordinary guy discovering a world that is not so ordinary,” a world qualitatively different from the homogenized perception that glorifies grasping and aversion. Baited by the uncharacter-istic guru, Jamayah, into experiencing the optimal possibilities of human awareness, Bob Kramer bumbles through a series of orientations designed to empower paranormal command and cosmic awareness. His adventures include out-of-body flight, past-life realization, shamanic exorcism, soul-retrieval, lucid dreaming, channeling spirit guides, and Zen golf from a maverick master. Rooting the spiritual adventure are the mundane realities of a strip bar romance, homeless humility and violence, and the horrors of war.
