Mayor Scott Walker of Reeves, Louisiana calls CenturyTel’s decision to remove the 666 telephone prefix a “divine intervention.” Christians in Reeves were unhappy when the telephone company instituted the 666 prefix to their telephone numbers in the early 1960s. They had always considered this prefix to be a stigma on their small town.

Residents were happy to learn that they can change their number to the 749 prefix for the next three months. The mayor expects that 80% of the 450 homeowners will make the switch.

Judy Mayer’s $6.8 million fortune was not cast by a crystal ball, but by a deck of tarot cards and a bit of “women’s intuition.” Mayer won the jackpot using five of the six numbers she obtained during a tarot reading in 2005.

“She didn’t tell me I was going to win a substantial amount of money. Sometimes they hit on the right things, sometimes they don’t,” Mayer, 56, said yesterday after claiming Manitoba’s latest multi-million dollar lottery jackpot.

Mayer carried the psychic’s business card, on which her numbers were scribbled, inside her purse. Last Wednesday, when she entered the numbers for her ticket, she decided to change the last one. Her instinct earned her a windfall.

John Matheson of Western Canada Lottery Corp. said that he had seen people pick their winning numbers in a lot of different ways, but doesn’t recall anyone using Tarot cards.

Power Tarot is more than a book with diagrams about Tarot card spreads. It explains the meanings and nuances of each of the 78 cards of the Tarot and shows you what they mean for different scenarios. The authors also include brief, general information on the Major and Minor Arcana, the Court Cards, personal loss cards, and the four elements.

Beginners as well as veterans of the Tarot will enjoy using this book to determine their destinies. The only thing missing is the deck.

Spreads include Birthday Spread, Child Spread, Prosperity Spread, Horoscope Spread (covering all 12 Houses of the Astrological Chart), Chakra Spread (a card for each chakra plus a meditation card), Relationship Spread, Wish Spread, Career Spread, and New Relationship Spread.

The Book of THoTH with the help of best selling author Philip Gardiner has struck a deal with one of the world’s leading record companies - Reality Entertainment - to provide thousands of dollars worth of prizes for submitted articles. In addition after 6 months the very best articles will be chosen to appear in a new Book to be launched world-wide by Reality Press entitled The Book of THoTH : Wisdom of the Ages. Although there will be no royalty payments on the book, presently unpublished authors will have the chance to see their name in print in a major new book and will then be able to use this as a catalyst to further their publishing career.

“This is a major step forward in helping people get their voice heard, and getting previously unpublished ideas out there in the greater world. I know for a fact that there are thousands of prospective authors out there desperate to be heard and I was wondering how I could help them. I spoke to THoTH and to Reality and brought the two together and so with this united and powerful front we can really make a statement and help people. I simply couldn’t help everybody on their own, but this way we get to help more and more and can carry this on every year.” Said Philip.
