From Mayor to Fool is a series of transcribed conversations that took place in Spring 2008, between the Author (Tim Mayeur), his parents, his close friends, two Tarot Card Readers, a Psychic Medium and a Hypnotherapist. It is a journey where you get to follow the Author as he transforms and comes to terms with his life, the loss of his sister, struggles with what it means to be a Middle Class Man and evaluates his life in order to improve it. There were no rehearsals and the Psychics were not given any information about Tim's life prior to the meetings. Tim met them for the first time for these sessions. This is what happens when a nihilistic and skeptical man has a spiritual awakening. As a true story about the factors in one's life, it can be overwhelming, looking at all the possibilities and probabilities but in the end, people need to trust their own intuitions and judgment of where they want to go in life. Change involves stress and risk. Are you ready for a Change?

ENTER THE CARDS AND TIM THE MAYOR
CARDS
So what are we doing today? What is on your mind? Did you have something you had mentioned?
MAYOR
Ah ya ... this is really ... well, I think it is a period of change over the next couple of years. Been leading up for it and I know that something ... something's going to be happening, whether ... you know ... I'm moving away from here or I'm changing my career.
CARDS
You can feel ... you're feeling the changes inside. So your question is "How will this manifest?"
MAYOR
Ya, how will things change?
CARDS
What form will that take? OK, good.
MAYOR
Beautiful cards!!
CARDS
These are beautiful cards!! They are called the Maat tarot ... M ... a ... a ... t ... Goddess of Justice and what the Egyptians believed was that when they passed to the spirit world, the first deity that they would encounter was Maat, and the Goddess Maat was always depicted with a set of scales. Lest you develop in the spirit world any further you would ... and what's interesting is the work of Corr Richmond, who is a fascinating woman. She lived, between 1840 to 1923. Entities from the spirit world that spoke directly through her and some of the ways they are describing the spirit world is there is a sphere of justice ... and of course justice ... whatever we've done. So we think about that, and if we can't move forward ... in acceptance and self-forgiveness, and we go to the healing sphere and we just kind of move forth between the spheres until we reach that level. So I don't think the Egyptians were actually so far off. What's your favorite pile?
MAYOR
Oh, I don't have one.
CARDS
One favorite ...
MAYOR
Oh.
CARDS
Just pick ...
MAYOR
Hmm, let's go for the middle.
CARDS
OK ... this is the Lovers card. It tells us what needs protection in your life. And so this is the area, as we look into your future unfolding ... where you will face the greatest challenges. Ah and ... maybe ... the most of what I would say is your purpose ... is in the realm of Lovers. And Lovers ... is of course not just about sexual lovers, it's certainly not but that plays into it. I don't adhere to the philosophy that we have one soul-mate ... I believe we come from ... we're a part of a soul family. But it is in the arena of relationships where you can make wrong choices and you will be faced with all those choices all the time. And those choices are about risk versus ... whether you choose to take no risk and be secure. And those ... that kind of challenge you will be faced with in relationships in particular. So you want to always be mindful......... What's your date of birth?
MAYOR January 26th, 1978.
CARDS
Who is an Aquarian!!. You would have a tendency to ... hmm ... you're thirty. You're going through a developmental change as well. Do you know what your Moon is?
MAYOR
No I don't.
CARDS
You might want to go to astro.com. You can enter your birthday ... they will give you a Coles notes version of your horoscope. Your full horoscope and then if you want to pursue it. I'd recommend you do it because I'm wondering if your Moon is in ... this card would suggest your Moon's in Libra or Gemini. It would be interesting to know whether you're Gemini.
MAYOR
OK, I will.
CARDS
As an Aquarian you have ... you're always expanding ... and looking for what else is out there. Sort of let's look ahead and see ... progress would very much grab you, because you're very expansive. But it's in the arena of relationship in particular ... where what more is possible. So ...
MAYOR
There's no risk because I'm always waiting for something better to show up.
CARDS
Exactly ... exactly......... What needs patience has come up the Ten of Swords. And this is ... in your experience you have ... is connected to something in your life. I suspect it is ... it feels that way ... that in your work life, what you were expecting or promised or envisioning actually didn't turn out to be that way. And on some level you feel betrayed by that. That needs patience ... meaning that ... that ... the good side of that, or, the benefit to you of that having happened is that it's really closed the door for you on that. And so that's like a period on a sentence or that's like ... OK, I don't need to go through this anymore ... I don't need any more of this to know that it is never going to work, will never work and to be able to move on and to see the light coming through in a different place. So you can thank that betrayal for having been very helpful. Now this is a Spring card ... meaning that by the 21st of June ... which is only two months away ... you will be done ... that will be it.
MAYOR
Yup, that sounds like work.
CARDS Ya ... it does feel like work.
MAYOR
Well ... ya ... cause I switched over to a new department to start up a project two years ago and the company never backed the project. So I've just been ... felt a little betrayed because I made the move over to that area ...
CARDS
For that reason.
MAYOR
For that reason ... and I haven't been able to or haven't been allowed to fulfill it. So I've been recently looking for new job opportunities and going to interviews. So ...
CARDS
Good!!. Congratulations!! That ... the oracle has said that by the 21st of June you will be in fact ready to ... by then, at the latest. We're seeing the Ten of Swords, so I'm going to say that we're getting closer ... certainly into around the 10th of June ... someone in that ... and you'll say thanks ... thanks for having shot me in the hmm ... butt ... like that. That will really make this done for me and you'll...
