#ReblogForACause

Every year I aspire to do good with Tarot and Divination. This year is no different.  

For those who are unaware, my aunt passed away two years ago from kidney related complications resulting from the AIDS virus. She was everything to me. The anniversary of her death is approaching and it doesn’t get any easier.
I have so many dear friends and family members here in NJ, Haiti and Tumblr who have been newly diagnosed with HIV and AIDS in the last year and I want to raise awareness to something that not only affects  me, my family and friends, but so many other people around the world.

HIV and AIDS research is a cause near and dear to my heart.

• Every 9 ½ minutes, someone in the United States is infected with HIV
• Most new infections occur in people between 18 and 29 years of age
• Every 33 minutes, someone in the United States dies from AIDS
• Out of 100 people living with HIV in New Jersey, 53 are African American, 24 are Hispanic, and 35 are women
• African Americans are more likely to postpone medical care, be hospitalized, and die from HIV-related causes
• 1 in 5 people in the United States are unaware of their HIV infection and transmit up to 70% of new infections

I have been away from Tumblr for the last couple of weeks because I have been doing in person donation readings so that I can donate money to Hyacinth, the HIV and AIDS foundation in Jersey City, NJ.

I have raised$150.00 in donation readings already. I want to do something good and get the Tumblr Tarot and Divination community involved.

All you have to do is reblog and like this post. That is it.

For every 100 notes this post receives, I will add $1.00 to the $150.00 that I already have.
After September 12th, I will donate the money to Hyacinth and provide a master list of reblogs and likes of every user from Tumblr. I want to show the power of social media, the power of kindness, the power of strength and love that this community has for their fellow human being.  
After the donation has been submitted, I will choose three bloggers at random, and provide them each a one card reading from the ArcaneMysteries shop.

I want to show that we all can make a difference.  

If you would like to donate to Hyacinth on your own, You can do soHERE.
