some comms I’ve done over the past few weeks for people who bought eSIMs for Gaza or donated to Care For Gaza, a group on the ground distributing food, sanitary products, money, and more to those who have been displaced.
If you’d like an eSIM comm you can find more information on this post— I respond more quickly to Instagram and twitter messages, but you can also DM me here on tumblr. To donate to Care For Gaza you can send money here and check out their Twitter and Instagram to see where the aid is going.
Thabk you to those who have contributed so far!

fal-e hafez fortune tellers i made!
(a huge shoutout to my amoo for helping me w translations, although neither of us are poets so pls go easy on us)
fal-e hafez is a form of divination. if someone has a question/concern/struggle/etc. they will open a book of hafez's poetry to a random page. that poem will offer guidance and insight about the person's concern. this has been a common practice in iran for centuries and is often practiced during the holiday of yalda which is celebrated on the winter solstice ❣️
i thought it would be cute to combine these two forms of divination together! to keep it simple for the fortune teller i took the first couplet from a few of hafez's poems since there's not room for the whole thing

an explanation on haft sins!
a haft sin (or haft seen) is an arrangement of seven symbolic items starting with the letter s in persian. the name comes from the persian haft (seven) and the letter sin/seen س. this arrangement is displayed during nowruz, the iranian new year, which is celebrated by various ethnic groups. an iranian haftsin includes:
🌱 sabzeh (lentil sprouts) rebirth & growth
🍮 samanu (wheat germ pudding) power & strength
🍎 seeb (apple) beauty
🧄 seer (garlic) health & medicine
🫒 senjed (russian olive) love
🥒 serkeh (vinegar) patience
❤️ somagh (sumac) sunrise
the meaning and symbolism behind these items is debated and can differ among cultures.
other items commonly placed in haft sins are hyacinths, coins, mirrors, sweets, candles, goldfish, and decorated eggs. some also place an avesta, a book of hafez's poems, or a quran.
the presence of a haft sin and the items in it can differ between religions, cultures, and nationalities. 🌷
