Pick a Pile: A Message from the Universe
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
breathe in, breathe out and pick a picture that resonates with you. please take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. there is love in all of these messages. the tone here is gentle, like an older sibling, best friend, or parent scolding and motivating you at the same time. :)
pile 1 -> pile 2 -> pile 3
Did this resonate with you? If you’re reading this before Friday, October 13th: I’m doing a housewarming tarot game, to celebrate settling into my new blog space! I’ll be doing 3-cards spreads for five people! Want more details?
©️2023 cancersstellium. all rights reserved.
Pile 1
(crystals: black onyx and clear quartz | bottom of deck: six of cups. nostalgia isn’t just about longing or reminiscing about old times. it’s remembering too)
Maybe you feel like in your past there is a lack of a sense of justice. Maybe you didn’t get your due, that person didn’t get their punishment. But it’s coming. Karma cannot be dealt when your “peace” depends on it. The moment you stop worrying about their karma will be the moment that they receive it. Focus on your energy instead. There’s this beautiful, chaotic energy within you waiting, like a volcano waiting to erupt. There’s a reunion coming your way, later this month. Whether that’s with an another person, a part of your self, with the divine is left to be revealed. Whatever it may be: stay open to it, stay grateful, stay blessed. The major arcanum sun here is 6, The Lovers. There’s a duality here. One that requires love, faith, and sometimes a choice to leap blindly. It’s the roses with the thorns; it’s fire and water, a place for both exist; it’s want versus need versus true desire. Lean into this time. Breathe into this time. All of your relationships will be tested. All of your relationships will be challenged. All of your relationships will be upgraded. Trust the journey. Trust the process.
may resonate with: those born in december; cheetos, specifically the hot ones; animal lovers? something about cheetahs?
Pile 2
(crystal: pyrite | bottom of deck: temperance. peace and inner knowing)
Your’s reads more like a story and less like a message. There’s a wish here, a desire. And it seems like now is an auspicious time to get it. “So why haven’t I?” You ask. You planted the seed a while ago and you’re wondering why it hasn’t grown. You’re wondering if you just need to give it time, if you should pull it up and replant it, or just give up on it entirely. Perhaps you can’t see it, but there’s a sense of grief from the Universe in this, a “Why don’t you trust Me?” sense of exasperation. Rushing only results in poorer quality and things like this, can’t be rushed. Just know that all will be revealed in due time. But there’s a compassion here, for your struggle and an understanding that we use time as a measurement. I expect you’ll see some light shed on the situation very soon. The major arcanum sum here is 10, The Wheel of Fortune. There are higher forces at work here. Step aside. (Imagine a “road at work” sign here.) Be patient. Even. More. Patient.
may resonate with: leo suns + leo 1H placements, dolphin(s?) fans, hard workers, “just send me a sign”
Pile 3
(crystal: amethyst | bottom of deck: ace of wands reversed. you’re in your own way. lack of imagination. lack of creativity.)
“When the ‘why’ is strong, the ‘how’ is easy.” Meaning: when the reason behind something is clear, the how it comes about requires little effort on your part. Why are so obsessed with ‘how’ this will happen? Why are you so sure that because you cannot see a solution there must not be one? I ask this with love because I see all the major influences here. There’s a wholeness, there’s beauty, there’s great and beautiful change. The only obstacle in your path is you. And that’s okay! That’s something you can change. In order to get out of your own way, all you need to do is look inward. You already know what you want. Go back to what you knew just before it got complicated. Therein lies your answer. Maybe it felt scary but it’s not, just look one more time. Maybe it feels like the ground is shifting beneath your feet, but what is it that you’re standing on? Have you truly looked? Look again. You’ve come so far, you’ve changed so much. I see a reason to celebrate at the end of this. Feminine energy here. Being, creating, dancing, receiving. The major arcanum sum here is 4, The Emperor. Masculine energy. All it takes is a little organization, a little logic but not the “real world” kind.
may resonate with: “i just feel so alone”, aladdin, wedding tiktoks, jenga, uno (like the card game)

THE DIVINE COMEDY!
𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓮𝓻 𝓒𝓪𝓼𝓮 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓒𝓵𝓸𝔀𝓷 𝓟𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓸𝓯 𝓒𝓻𝓲𝓶𝓮.
Content warning: Queerphobia, transphobia, queer fear mongering, mentions of sexual assault, and slurs.
Tumblr media
I would like, if I may, to take you on a Queer journey.
For more than a few years the Joker has been portrayed as exhibiting traits stereotypically associated with Queerness, among these are; dressing flamboyantly, in some instances even full on crossdressing, wearing makeup, flirting with other men and of course, being infatuated with Batman. This has been collectively referred to as Queercoding. This is not up for discussion. The Joker is Queercoded.
Tumblr media
However, more often than not, until at least 2017, these traits have been used to frame this character in an entirely negative, predatory light. It was the intention, for the most part, for the audience to see Queercoding in this villain and reach the conclusion that Queerness itself is inherently depraved or evil. It's been done with a ton of other villains, from 50s movies to Disney. But to illustrate this point further, we need to take a look at a queer villain that has amassed an LGBTQ fanbase just as big, if not bigger, than the Joker's, and who, like him, is seen as a Queer icon, one of the biggest in history; Dr. Frank N. Furter.
Tumblr media
Yes. That one. You know Tim Curry almost got the part of the Batman Animated Series' Joker? Huh. Anyway, The Rocky Horror Show, and by extension, Picture Show, is one of the most divisive pieces of theater or film I've ever seen. Some people adore it for its inclusion of an explicitly (in all senses of the word) queer character as far back as 1973 when it was first performed on stage, and others despise it for portraying that character as a predatory homicidal weirdo who assimilates and "turns" the heteronormative protagonists of the show, and who has to die so that, in Dr. Von Scott's words, "Society must be protected." And some people (like me) just like it for the vibes. It's easy to see where both the praise and the criticism come from. While it is true that this show and the film that came after it are an important piece of LGBTQ history that should not be forgotten, it's just as important to remember that they are far from flawless. But on topic, let's get back to Frank specifically. Like Joker, his mannerisms are meant to get across his villainy and depravity, with both Brad and Janet being pretty much raped (by deception) and then coerced into sex by him. This is a horrible light for the only explicitly bisexual character to be cast in, and while more modern performances have attempted to re-portray the character and story in a more forgiving way, the original text and what it says about the LGBTQ community as a whole cannot be denied.
Tumblr media
The same can be said for the Joker, who in all important respects has been meant to be perceived in the same way. A predatory, homicidal, society destroying faggot who needs to die. And yet, as time went on and DC unsurprisingly didn't permanently kill off one of their most profitable characters, more writers (such as Frank Miller and Sean Murphy) were given enough of a chance to reinterpret the character how they wanted, and the public began to perceive him differently. Times were changing. But before we get into that, we need to talk philosophy, just for a sec, I promise.
Tumblr media
It is very common to assume that the Joker is a nihilist, that is the popular approach taken by many interpretations, including killing joke (bleh), but it seems to me that the ways some modern creators portray his beliefs are beginning to lean more towards absurdism. The belief that the universe is random, irrational and has no inherent meaning, and that we should each create our own individual meaning of life. You'll see where I'm going with this. Whatever Joker's meaning is often depends on the writer at the time but the underlying constant is that it's all just a big joke. This is in line with the Joker's inherent camp-ness. The whole point of camp is, after all, to dethrone the serious. It is a comic vision of the world. And it's a viewpoint that more and more people are taking a liking to. But why?
As the political landscape has changed, more and more people have become disillusioned with the state of our old friend society. Sure there was that brief wave of self-proclamed "stoic sigma males" who made all those stupid memes featuring Joker, but I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about people who wanted the world they lived in to be better, and who saw rebellious attitudes in pop culture and applauded. And this included LGBTQ people.
youtube
I would be remiss if I were to write this entire Queer Jokerfied manifesto without once mentioning Gaylienz's video "Queercoding the Joker". It's an impressive deep dive and while I personally think it comes off as biased here and there, it has a good reason to be so, and is still worth a watch. I didn't get into the specific history of Joker's Queerness throughout the comics but if you want a presentation that does, I can't recommend it enough. All this to say that Gaylienz's interpretation of Joker's more violent crimes as an expression of Queer rage is not unfounded, and an appealing interpretation in the face of bigoted persecution, even if DC didn't intend for it to be interpreted that way. But how to incorporate that violence with a Queer Joker? As much as I love Lego Batman's Joker, and as much as I've bemoaned DC's reliance on shock value, there is a third direction to go. Just because the Joker should be Queer doesn't necessarily mean he can't be violent at all. Sure, the idea of balancing Joker's violence with Queerness that is supposed to make him sympathetic is daunting, but it is possible to let Joker be queer again without having to make him completely sanitized or completely irredeemable, and I can prove it. You know who Queer-Icon-Joker™ really reminds me of.
Tumblr media
Kill everyone now! Condone first degree murder! Advocate cannibalism! Eat shit!
If Divine had ever been offered a film roll which involved her cutting her own face off for giggles, she'd probably be thrilled. Harris Glenn Milstead, better known as his famous and infamous drag persona Divine, is one of the most charmingly shocking icons in all of LGBTQ herstory. She could be funny, disgusting, glamorous, compelling and all four at the same time. But more than anything else, she was shameless. She wore exactly who she was on her sleeve and never apologized for it. At all times she was proud of who she was, and that kind of self-loving pride is what eventually came to redefine LGBTQ culture as we know it. This is already an attitude that we've seen the Joker display on multiple occasions, and it would be easy to tie that shameless pride and joy to Queerness, but wait! There's more!
In my opinion, the closest thing we can get to Divine gone Jokerfied, would have to be the second film in the Trinity of Trash and arguably the best movie out of the three, Female Trouble. Dawn Davenport, played by Divine, runs away from home after she doesn't get the cha-cha heels she wanted for christmas, and it all goes off the rails from there. She has a kid, meets some similarly strange strangers at a prestigious salon, becomes a criminal model, gets in a fight and burned by acid (Wow, small world.) and this only makes her even more beautiful, before putting on her own stage show and killing her audience, admitting to her crimes and going to the electric chair with grace. She couldn't be happier in the end because she got exactly what she wanted. Dawn Davenport is dirty, depraved and delightfully devilish, and yet here we are cheering her on even as she's strapped in for her demise.
Similarly, as I said, the Joker is often written as being completely shameless in what he does, be that crossdressing, trademarking fish, sabotaging innocent vending machines, hunting the rich, or flirting with a goth furry in need of therapy, and even if he's a violent vaudevillian villain, the best versions of him manage to be funny while doing it, and there we are laughing along with him. I couldn't say how many times I've listened to Divine's song "I'm so beautiful" and imagined those words from Joker's point of view. "Can't you see! Look at me!" Even if they're not the most overt example, many of the other films like Pink Flamingos and Multiple Maniacs give off joker vibes in spades. It's all in the pride, baby. It can be argued that DC is already heading in this direction, with Joker getting some more of his own solo stories and more focus being put on his Queerness as a redeeming trait. You know where this is going!
Tumblr media
As the LGBTQ spectrum became more and more understood and less villainized, characters written as LGBTQ became more normalized, and queer villains were becoming more loved than feared. Quite a lot of LGBTQ people take a look at the less depraved more silly jokers with their queer traits and find the character endearing, lovable, even relatable. This is of course where Lego Batman comes in, which brings as much to the forefront as it can without explicitly spelling it out for everybody. In most cases, I'd consider coding this recent to be a cop out, but dealing with an odd couple with as much history as Batman and the Joker, it's almost necessary to take smaller steps in the right direction, instead of a full 180, especially after the overabundance of violence. I agree with Gaylienz's claim that the Lego Batman Movie marks a cultural shift in how these characters are portrayed. From Telltale's Batman whose Joker won the hearts of LGBTQ fans everywhere, to the Harley Quinn show whose Joker wasn't afraid to take a step away from gorey shock value. At this point, I'm convinced that a positively Queer Clown Prince of Crime is written in the stars. It's inevitable now. It's only a matter of time until DC has no other alternative but to do what many fans already have. And there is a lot of great fanmade Queer Joker stuff out there, but I want to showcase one in particular as a good sign of things to come, and proof that we can make the inevitable happen sooner.
Tumblr media
Loonies, Germs and Non-binary worms, I give you: THE PEOPLE'S JOKER! Born from the beautifully twisted vision of Vera Drew and Bri LeRose, this unofficial parody that defied copyright death invites us into the campy comedic cranium of a trans woman trying to make her way in a fascistic straight and narrow world, eventually deciding that if Gotham won't let her achieve her dreams, then she'll get out there and take them for herself. Refusing to accept the meaning of life that the society she lives in has prescribed for her, she creates her own. I am ashamed to admit that I have not seen this movie yet, but I swear before you people of Tumblr, I will buy it, I will own it, and I will review it in full. Point is, this film is a step in the right direction for Joker. It's a positive LGBTQ message, it's not a meaningless shocking gore-fest like what we've had to put up with, and most importantly IT'S FUNNY! After 84 years if DC won't be brave enough to make the Joker queer and fun again, the people will.
The three things that have been used to portray the Joker as an irredeemable monster are, violence, mental illness and Queerness. As I said in my last Joker post, we've already been subjected to so much violence that the joke has worn out and it's high time we had a break. Mental illness is plenty stigmatized already and should be portrayed with accuracy and respect. Duh. And as for Queerness, this trait is a golden opportunity to portray the Joker as something he's always been, but something that DC seems to forget. A human being. A person who is not broken beyond repair, capable of empathy and love. Still a villain, but as Phyllis said, one with vulnerabilities.
That progress, the cultural shift that Gaylienz was referring to, that long hard road from shock value to genuine, mentally ill, Queer, humanity, from Queer fear to Queer fun, is what I like to call The Divine Comedy. And for Batman to finally return the love that's been given to him all this time, that is its greatest punchline.
Tumblr media
So my pretties, what did we learn from all this? Well, what I hope you take from these insane ramblings is this; I firmly believe that this is the face of the Joker of the future, and that we have the power to make that dream a reality. Vera Drew has done it, she wasn't the first, I'm willing to bet she won't be the last. We need more parodies, more fan-made media, more people who aren't afraid to make what we want. Make the change you want to see! Make it as weird, as crazy and as Queer as you like! Make the Joker Queer and fun again! Long live The Divine Comedy.

how would your mystreet rewrite be impacted by your mcd rewrite? you said they’re in the same universe right
your writing is really cool :))))
thank you so much!!
Tumblr media
(tragic how huge this thing is, but i guess that's the price i pay for self expression.)
also i'm so sorry this is late, i forgot i started this ask </3
WARNINGS FOR: potential inaccuracies, a lot of this is probably subject to change but it's a general idea!
GWGFGD (MCD) spans entirely over two eras in myverse history—"B.P" and "D.D"—and then a very small portion of the current era, "A.G". currently, GWGFGD contains at least 850 years of history, as well as a number of crucial developments within geography, religion, government, society, and of course, the final defeat of the true king/shadrach. a lot of these changes were done or at least started by eurydice and co., including:
de-stigmatization of magik and its users;
reduction of species-based stigma/discrimination;
reduction of religious dominance;
actual abolishment of monarchy and development of democratic systems;
development of states, cities, etc. and infrastructure;
genuine unity between countries;
etc.
because of this and magik enhancing technological advancements, the beginning of A.G is about the 18th/19th century in real world equivalents (i say this because the current world year when the MCD storyline is over is 1350). politics at any point are largely underdeveloped but i feel i can solidly say about a century after GWGWGD, people are not going to war. bc actually i don't like war and i think it's largely, if not entirely, unnecessary. but anyway.
at this point, everyone knows that the divine warriors existed and most are also aware that massive portions of their mythology is incorrect (i have an eventual religion post that'll explain this more). because of this, religions surrounding the divine warriors become less about the warriors themselves and more about the themes and ideals people associated with them. for example, "solusism" during GWGFGD is about worshipping eirene as the sole goddess—and even creator—of the world, while solusism in myverse is centered more around the belief that all creatures deserve to live uninterrupted from start to finish (so a solusist may practice vegetarianism/veganism to uphold this idea).
now presently, things aren't awful, but there are some misconceptions, flaws, or gaps in the history that would still have the GWGFGD cast rolling in their graves, like:
shadow knights being rebranded as demon subtypes (like imps, succubi/incubi, etc.), and eventually completely replaced by those subtypes (only the most dutiful of history/theology nerds can find information on shadow knights; trying to explain the difference to the masses usually kills the soul, though).
many characters, especially shadow knights, are forgotten or removed from most historical accounts despite eurydice and co.'s best attempts. this includes characters like vylad, dante, lucinda (who's only known as "the White Witch"), several of the lords eurydice befriended, etc. essentially, anyone dubbed "unimportant". this is a persistent issue with myverse history, as they did this with the divine warriors as well. maybe one day they'll learn.
relic holders are assumed to have been reincarnations of the divine warriors, which is almost entirely false.
eurydice gets "mother, maiden, crone"-d and largely stripped of the individuality she fought very hard for. later, in the actual myverse roleplays, aphmau also ends up struggling with this and is believed to represent the maiden (eirene = crone, eurydice = mother).
lastly, i'll discuss some of the bigger changes to the myverse roleplays.
the biggest one is probably going to be names. a majority of the myverse cast will be descended from GWGFGD, so instead they more "represent" the OGs rather than being them. this means almost no one has the same name because it would make me tweak. the exceptions to this are the shadow knights and travis.
an example that's already come up is aphmau. she's actually born with the name "elissa", but adapts "aphmau" from final fantasy and eventually it catches and it becomes her preferred name.
the myverse cast is also supposed to look different—probably still recognizable, but individual. once again, the only exception to this is shadow knights, but this is because (as briefly stated before), shadow knights are sentenced to an automatic, reincarnation-adjacent fate. i say adjacent because instead of being reborn as something new, shadow knights are always reborn as, well, shadow knights due to the way their soul is corrupted. their reincarnations are supposed to be opportunities to live as they should have been, but there's always a chance they'll end up the same as they did in their first life (that is, a frightful husk of heated armor, boiling with fury all the time). afterlife never is and never will be an option for them. they're reborn again and again, filling in the holes where their soul belongs, and when they die they do it all again.
(how aging and death work for reincarnated shadow knights, i don't know yet.)
(the only shadow knight who doesn't follow this system is shadrach. after GWGFGD, he's employed as "judgement". when his time is served, he'll join the rest of the divine warriors, save one, in the afterlife, where they will never be reincarnated.)

"Frankincense...paying me a little visit..~?"
Really it was a surprise. A good one. Even if they hated to let such a thing show. Even if that grin they wore gave it away. Or would it? When was Divinity not smiling like a mad man. When were they not eager to see the only person that presented something fun to him?
He came down from his perch, all but floating given his control over the air around him. Getting close to the taller man as he wrapped his arms around him. As if he were some long lost lover. That grin on his face as one hand held the other's cheek.
"To what...should I owe...this absolute honor~?"

Hi , how r u? Congratulations on ur new home
I am HS . I want to know how will my friendship with MS pan out? Will we be best friends.
Thanks 🙏
hey hs. thank you for the welcome. ah, i remember your ask from my tarot game. you are a libra and your friend is a cancer, right? i am not doing tarot readings right now but i can divine through dice, so let’s take a look.
It’s not likely. I’d say you and MS are as close as you’re going to get. There isn’t a lot pulling you two together, it seems. I’d say there’s a connection missing between you two right now. I believe you and MS will be a part of a friendship group in the near future, if you’re not already.
🚪 with hope and light, eden

family friend!luke is back and this time we’re on vacation!
acting blissfully indifferent when your parents announce the joint family vacation they had planned with luke’s family.
spending the drive to the airport, the flight, the coach to the hotel, and the entire first night there in your own head, letting your imagination run itself wild.
being painfully reminded that it was a family vacation, and it would be harder to get yourself alone with luke than you’d originally imagined.
finally losing your patience and cornering him outside the restrooms at the hotels outdoor pool. seizing him by the wrist, dragging him behind the building, and letting him finger fuck you against the wall — the concrete hot from the sun and burning into your back like your desire.
but now you’ve had a taste, you only want more.
so you leave dinner early that night, feeling tired and jet lagged. luke walks you back.
you don’t have a lot of time, so you’re shoving luke onto the bed and pulling his cock out of his pants before the door has even had the chance to fall shut. the click of the handle stifles his groan when you shove him into your mouth — one hand fisting his dick, the other running sweet circles on your clit through your underwear.
you live off quiet quickies for the next three days until finally — as if by some divine intervention — your own parents leave for a date night, may takes annabeth to a disney show your hotel was putting on, and you and luke are alone.
you turn on a movie, to be polite. but it isn’t long before he’s yanking at your ankle and crawling up your body, putting his mouth to yours fervently and pressing you into the couch cushions. your board shorts are discarded somewhere across the room and luke’s trunks are gone in a flash — his cock hard and ready, precum leaking from his beautiful red tip.
he humps against your panties for a brief moment, but then he’s pushing them aside and burying himself inside of you. you both moan at the feeling of him filling you up, and he takes one singular breath before beginning to piston roughly.
no time for dirty talk, no time to think. just his cock, your cunt — and the indescribable pleasure the two of them together create.
your legs are around his waist, over his shoulder, spread wide on either side, putting pressure on your hips. his hands are caging you in, feeling you all over, rubbing your soft spots and kneading your tits.
he moans in your ear, bites at your collar bones. you yank on his curls, scratch on his arms and back. you’re both dazed and drunk on each other, no thoughts processed, no words exchanged.
you sit in silence for a while after you’re done. he’s inside you, breathless and utterly still on top of you. your left leg rests over the side of the couch and your right hangs limply off the end. you were certain that you couldn’t muster up the energy to move even if you heard your parents coming back.
best vacation ever.

" When the mood strikes you. "
It was actually quite cute, he thought. Knowing that despite the way others saw him, Frankincense could be quite sweet. Charming, even. Maybe that was part of why Divinity had fallen for him. As loathe as he'd been to admit it at first.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
❝What, you don't think I can be kind?❞
At his heart he really was a kind man, at least for those he knew. Anyone else was just there to be toyed with. But friends, loved ones, even Divinity? He wanted what was best for them, even if it came from having to deal with something shitty first.

“ I like flaws. I think they make things interesting. ” Frankincense to Divinity hrgrrh
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"They make things...interestin'?"
What a thing to say while he was a crumpled heap. Holding a hand over the gash in his side. A consequence for using his mastery over the wind without his cards. A side effect. A flaw. A curse that came with the magic of a djinn being bound to a human body.
And yet by some providence it had been Frankincense who found him. Listened to his 'whining', as Divinity would call it.
And this was what he had to say?
"...you are a strange...strange man, Frankie..."

🌟 Types of Divination 🌟
🃏 Tarot Reading: Ah, the classic! Shuffle those cards, lay 'em out, and let the symbols tell your story. It's like a psychic storytime with beautifully illustrated cards.
🔮 Crystal Ball Gazing: Channel your inner fortune teller and gaze into the shimmering depths of a crystal ball. See visions, symbols, or just a really fancy paperweight – your call!
☕ Tea Leaf Reading: Sip your cuppa, but don't toss those leaves! The way they settle in your cup can unveil the mysteries of the universe. Get ready to decipher some leafy hieroglyphics.
🖐️ Palmistry (Chiromancy): Study the lines, mounts, and shapes on your palm. Each crease tells a story about your life path, personality, and potential. It's like reading a roadmap to your destiny right on your hand!
🕊️ Feather Divination: Feathers are more than just fashionable accessories for birds! They can carry messages from the spirit world. Find one, meditate on it, and decode its wisdom.
🌀 Runes Casting: Norse warriors used them, and now you can too! Grab some ancient runestones, cast them, and let the runic symbols weave tales of your destiny.
🕯️ Candle Scrying: Light a candle, focus on the flame, and let your visions come to life within the flickering glow.
🌿 Pendulum Magic: Swing that pendulum and ask it some yes-or-no questions. Allow the pendulum to swing freely and always keep your hand still to allow the energy to truly answer you questions.
🌗 Numerology: Numbers, man! They're everywhere, and they've got a lot to say. Discover your life path, destiny, and soul numbers.
🔍 Scrying Mirrors: Stare into the abyss... or, well, a special mirror! Gaze deep, and let the answers reveal themselves.
🌊 Water Scrying: Gaze into the reflective surface of water – be it a pond, a lake, or even a scrying bowl. Watch as ripples reveal the unseen.
🐚 Shell Divination: Channel your inner mermaid! Listen to the whispers of seashells and let them reveal their secrets. You can also collect a handful of different shells and cast them. Their placement, pattern, etc, can reveal important details!
🗝️ Key Casting (Cleidomancy): Gather a collection of old keys, close your eyes, and toss them onto a cloth. The position and arrangement of the keys will unveil symbolic messages or answers to your questions. It's like unlocking the secrets of the cosmos, one key at a time.
🎶 Music Divination (Alectryomancy): Play some tunes and let the lyrics, melodies, or even random song selections speak to you. The songs that resonate can offer messages or insights about your current situation. Let the music be your mystical DJ!
With this ever-growing list of divination methods, you'll have a magical tool for every occasion. Trust your intuition and let your inner seeker explore the mystical world of divination. Happy divining, cosmic explorers! 🔮🌠
