 🐾 A Note from Bimini: Black Cat Magic & a New Year Blessing

Hello, darlings.
My mom, VanGoghChica, has graciously given me a corner of her blog so I can chime in whenever I feel inspired—and trust me, inspiration visits often when you are a black cat.

With her help, I recently opened my very own eBay shop called BiminisBoutique. I’ve spent quite some time watching my mom create art, cards, journals, and all sorts of papercraft wonders. Somewhere along the way, I realized something important: I, too, have a creative flair. My other unique contribution? Black Cat Magic (BCM)—naturally.

Like my mom, I read tarot. Being a black cat comes with certain… perceptive abilities. My mom likes to joke that I live with one foot in the other world. She’s very astute that way.

To welcome the New Year, I pulled a tarot card for all of us and then created an ACEO (Art Cards, Editions & Originals) inspired by that pull. The card that revealed itself was the Ace of Pentacles

—and honestly, I couldn’t have wished for a better omen to begin 2026.

The Ace of Pentacles speaks of material blessings and fresh starts. It signals opportunities for prosperity—whether that shows up as money, a meaningful gift, new furniture, a refreshed home, or tangible support for a new project. This card is all about manifestation in the physical world, and it’s a wonderfully prosperous energy to carry into a new year. 

If you’d like to amplify your luck even more, you might consider one of my Black Cat Magic spell jars, each thoughtfully assembled to carry intention, charm, and a little feline mystique. You can read all about them in my shop listings.

And if you have comments, questions, or special requests, feel free to start a cat chat with me.
I know a lot. 🖤✨
