Pile I
Who are they?
King of pentacles reversed and death.
Uptight. The person coming into your life after you heal some open wounds is uptight. Good grief, they are stubborn as hell. Intuition tells me this person is here to end a karmic cycle for you. This person is very ambitious with what they want. So if you are in the way, best believe you aren’t going to be saved. They do not care about other people’s feelings if it means they can have what they want. So if you want to be kind to someone like this (as you always have to others), then go ahead, but remember that this is to end a cycle. So make sure you are aware of this. Intuition tells me they are successful, they have a lot of wisdom in the material world, and they give me lex luthor vibes, but healthy? Ironically, I am hearing they are a healthy person but can be immature when it comes to their goals. You are someone who doesn’t like change, and you always resist the change coming into your life because you are scared. That fear will be removed with this person. I do advise you to be alert around them since they aren’t a ray of sunshine. The death card explains that this person will make a meaningful change in your life, but you must take it.
The reason they are coming.
Change. Card came out so quickly. They will appear in your life quickly, kind of like a spontaneous decision on their side since they know you. And you know them damn well. I keep hearing about a breakup, so it’s possible that for some of you they are an ex, and for the rest it’s an old acquaintance.
The lovers and ten of pentacles.
The lovers confirms the ex coming back into your life if you resonate with it. As for the rest of you, it is possible that it’s a relative you stopped speaking to out of disrespect or a third party you left for a relationship. I feel a lot of third party energy, it’s possible it’s someone who didn’t approve of your relationship or marriage or wanted to steal your lover or you. So the reason they are coming into your life isn’t for forgiveness or that they are sorry, it’s for their own security. Having you in their life provided them material wealth or some type of abundance. They were able to leech off on you and they want to do the same. This is why intuition mentioned a karmic cycle. You must end this and not allow them to come into your life. Intuition tells me, ‘’leeches, leeches. Always coming back for more. Do not be your past self. Acceptance is key. Leave them.’’
End results of it.
Seven of cups reversed, knight of wands reversed, and the moon reversed.
You have all three reversed cards. Ouch. This is about a blockage in your life, and this person is truly not interested in you in the way you hope. Stop seeing the good in people, especially those who hurt you. It’s fine to see the best in people, but not those who hurt you, love. They aren't good for you and surely, your healing shouldn't go in vain, right? There are two pathways here.
You let them into your life: if you decide to let them into your life, all your hard work of healing goes in vain. You will be miserable and become restless. You will struggle to keep up with your life and fuck up your bedtime routine. Fuck your grades and start gaining weight from stress despite having a good metabolism. I also see acne breakouts, and you are crying constantly. Some hair loss and a lot of fear are running through me which is how you will feel. This person will be arrogant and stubborn, as mentioned, and make you lose your self-worth again. You will be stuck in the same cycle again, and that’s not worth it. Unless, of course, you are interested in being your own enemy? Don't be, and do not let your past self hard work in healing go to crap.
If you don't let them in: you will be slightly happier. Not in a bad way, but you are still healing, and you will feel guilty for not allowing them to come back. But you will find the clarity you need and realize many things about yourself. You will start to become stronger and learn that your intense emotions are not your enemy. You will start becoming creative again and start to draw, animate, read, exercise, etc. Right now, it’s kind of distant with your hobbies, but that’s okay because healing takes time, so stop being harsh on yourself. Anyway, your control over your mental diet will improve, and everything will become positive for you. You will eat healthier and, overall, become healthier. You will find your passions again and find a new job in your hometown, and it will give you the abundance you need to start anew.
Masterlist.
Pile II
Who are they?
The cards came out so fast that one of them almost fell on my floor. Their energy is wild. I feel fast-paced and on pure adrenaline, as if I were Superman.
King of cups, reversed ace of wands, and reversed five of wands.
You have two reversed of wands in your pile. Intuition says this person is afraid of planning ahead and always does things spontaneously; I keep hearing rule breaking. They like to do things to the extreme and make things fun, but they struggle with being decisive. I also hear ‘’fire, fire, fire—help, there is a fire! Just joking.’’ They like to joke around a lot; everything is a playful banter with them, and they will help you ease up a bit. This pile is honestly so beautiful. The king of cups is about compassion and empathy, and that’s the overall energy. A lot of people who are troublemakers get a bad rep and that’s the same with your pile. Make sure to be gentle with them, because underneath all that badass energy, they are a pile of goo and sensitivity. They are amazing at communication and honestly remind me of Ace from one piece. Intuition says, ‘’the sweetest people always get a bad reputation.’’ I hear that sometimes they ruin an opportunity for themselves because they do not have the motivation to keep going, and I hear that depression is something that they have dealt with or will deal with. And yet, with your energy, you make them want to improve. (psst, a love interest).
The reason they are coming.
Aside from the love interest, I’ll come back to that later. Intuition says they will bring your life pure happiness, but it will be a wild ride.
Queen of cups, the tower reversed, the chariot, and judgment.
Oh wow, wow, wow. Hey guys, so you are in your spiritual awakening right now? Congratulations on that! That's a huge accomplishment, so I'm proud of you. Moving on, so they are coming into your life because you ended a painful cycle in your life that has caused you to have a glow up both mentally and physically. Congratulations on the weight loss or weight gain too!! You should be proud of yourself and show more compassion to yourself with the queen of cups. Tarot says you need to realize how hard you worked to get where you are and understand that you will gain or lose weight more, but you cannot do that without accepting the progress you made. Stop looking at the big picture and focus on the smaller details. Our bodies change all the time, just as a plant grows into something beautiful, but it takes time. Everything needs patience, unless it’s a gut feeling and you have to make a spontaneous decision. They are coming into your life because you ended a cycle in your life. You found something you wanted, and you decided to make an inevitable change in your life. This change has made you stressed out, but it has also made your body healthier. I need you to stop worrying about the bigger picture and focus on the smaller details. Intuition says, ‘’love. I am proud of you. The hardship you went through to get where you are is amazing. Have more compassion and self-love for yourself. This person cannot appear and be your lover in the near future without this. Love is necessary within before it’s given outward. ’’ They are coming to make you feel warm and loved. They want to be your rock and your knight. They want to see you happy and lively. They want you to stop being so rigid and focused on your hobbies. They want you to travel with them and fall for them, just as they will fall for you. Some of you are hopeless romantics, and so are they. I keep hearing a ‘’match made in heaven.’’ Congratulations on a healthy relationship.
End results of it.
The reversed eight of swords came flying so fast, fell on my floor, and the first word to appear was, ‘’that’s too much love.’’ This person is going to be so loving, oh my god. So damn cute. I see a bunch of flowers on your table with love letters written on each of them, always saying how much they adore you, but all with details. This person loves you so much, and the amount of time they take to show you both with words and action is so mesmerizing.
Eight of swords reversed, five of pentacles, and the empress.
Awh, okay. So basically, a lot of you struggled to believe in the idea of love after encountering a lot of shitty people who shamed you for your weight. This caused you to hate yourself further, and you stopped caring about your emotions and yourself. The idea of loving yourself made you feel grossed out, and whenever you saw confident people with your body weight, you judged them internally, never outwardly, because you found it wrong. Because you have learned to heal yourself, you were able to find freedom within. You were able to heal yourself from those thoughts as they haven’t appeared since, but they are resurfacing in your obsession to become skinnier or gain more weight. But the person coming into your life is here to teach you how to harness your emotions into something beautiful. ‘’I want you to blossom into the beautiful flower that you are.’’ That is what I heard from them, which explains the imagery. They want you to release your limiting beliefs about yourself and help you understand that you control your life, not these thoughts. They will teach you how to become more confident—not falsely confident, but genuinely confident. You're going to feel so good, and I'm so happy for you. In a way, they will teach you how to take care of yourself without being so harsh on yourself. And make you feel happy. With them, you will have a happy, healthy relationship with them, amazing communication, and you both will be so loyal to one another.
Masterlist.
Pile III
Who are they?
There are multiple people coming into your life. As I was shuffling, so many cards came out, and one card flipped, indicating it was your card. Intuition tells me, ‘’a lot of people are coming, but you will be able to spot one person to come. It will be magical.’’ Someone is coming into your life, but you have a lot of people stopping you from allowing them to come, hence ‘’multiple people coming in.’’ This person will teach you a lot of things, but truly bring out your inner child and help them heal. Lots of tea parties, and I had an urge to listen to Alice’s theme song.
Two of pentacles reversed, ace of cups reversed, and the lovers.
A lot of you repress your emotions and wonder why the things you want won’t come into your life. I was telling someone today, ‘’if you do not heal with your repressed or bottled up emotions, then you cannot get what you want. Your thoughts create your reality; the things you say to yourself are what come towards you.’’ This is what you needed to hear. You honestly struggle to believe in yourself and lack confidence and self-love. A lot of people have mentioned that to you, but you ignore them. The person coming into your life will say the same thing. I am hearing they can be a teacher? Something with a nurturing vibe or mother nature; someone very calm, perhaps a bit too calm and very sweet. I feel drowsy, but in a relaxed way; that’s how you will feel with them. They are going to be honest with you and could never lie to you unless it’s to protect you. Intuition says they will teach you a lot about the world since you’re always in your room or feel caged in. a lot of overbearing and/or overprotecting parents/guardians. And they will teach you how to balance your intuition and feelings because you mistake your intuition for your anger or sadness.
The reason they are coming.
I feel suicidal energy with all of you. And I feel so empty inside. At first, I thought it was with me until I saw your cards.
Reversed ace of cups, reversed ten of cups, and reversed four of cups.
Awh, love. You are so worthy and loved; maybe you don't see it with others, but here with me, you are. I love you lots, and I am very proud of you that you are moving forward in life despite the struggles you are facing. Understanding your emotions is hard, isn’t it? Everything is a mess with you. You think of yourself one way, then it changes a lot, and you feel like you are lying to other people, but guess what? You are not. Change is about to happen, and you are figuring out who you are, and that’s okay. It’s okay to not know what you want in your life, that’s what it means to be alive. I hear that some of you are part of the furry community and do not feel loved or accepted, but you are accepted here, and the person coming in will feel the same. So they are coming into your life to show you that you are loved and accepted. With the four of cups reversed, tarot tells me you are struggling to find motivation in your life and find new opportunities. Remember, a flower cannot grow without sunlight, water, or patience. So you cannot find opportunities without patience, self-love, and acceptance of yourself. The person wants to show you that and give you what you need. And I keep hearing discord. Since a lot of you have broken families, the person will be coming online, but mainly on Discord.
End results of it.
Happiness, so much happiness. Your future self is happy and fulfilled. They are comfortable with who they are and express themselves better because their family also accepts them. But this was done with a lot of patience and understanding. Communicating and understanding one another, teaching each other about their cultures, traditions, etc.
Three of pentacles.
This confirms it for you. The three of pentacles are about positive endings, and you are on the right track. The opportunities you have been craving will come as you speak to this person. They will teach you so many things without expecting anything in return. They remind me of the dad or mom friend, always showering their friends with so much love and yet not caring for themselves. So teach them how to let go of being so selfless and teach them how to take care of themselves. After all, this isn’t a one sided friendship; things should become equal. I know that you guys will get a lot of rewards after this person meets you. Like the things you wanted before? You already have them. You will feel so relaxed and happy; a lot of you haven’t smiled, and if you have, it was fabricated. It will be genuine with them. They make your life better, and your family will know about them and think about allowing you guys to meet up. I hear that you have mentioned it or that both of you are comfortable with it. Either way, both of you would be down for it.

buying the pearl.
"buying the pearl of great price" is a biblical parable from matthew 13:45-46 that neville goddard has frequently used to show how you need to make a complete commitment to your desired outcome or state of being. the parable talks about a merchant who finds a valuable pearl and sells everything he has in order to buy it. neville used this as a metaphor to illustrate how you need to let go of ALL former beliefs if you want to be able to entirely fulfill yourself with your desires.
let go of former beliefs.
you have to let go of any belief system that holds the power to control you. you have to "sell" your old beliefs or declare them and valueless and identify with the only belief — you being god. you have to get rid of everything that does not serve you or dictates your life before you can do it.
there is no outer force but the law.
here‘s the thing: you either believe in the law and that there is no power outside of it or leave it. keep in mind that the law doesn’t cooperate with other belief systems. it’s because believing in the law implies that you understand that everything is you pushed out. everything, every religion, every spiritual pathway is a product of your imagination, a creation from within.
beliefs/ideologies such as astrology, tarot readings, crystals, hinduism, buddhism, karma, numerology, christianity, witchcraft, the law of attraction, islam, judaism, and so on are all the physical embodiment of your imaginative work — if you fully "commit" to the law of assumption. they will always conform to your assumptions about them and only ever be what you make them.
you are the only operant power.
you are the only operant power. there is no spiritual power that can exist outside of you. everything exists because you do, because you are. and it’s your job to identify with your infinite abilities!
that’s why it all loses meaning once you accept that you create everything. suddenly, things aren’t predetermined and you don’t actually witness things the way you do because you are a libra but because of the assumptions you persist in.
you are still free to practice any other belief. i mean, if witchcraft seems fun to you, you can technically use it to your advantage, right? i don’t want to condemn people for practicing other beliefs because you can adjust any belief to your liking and — if it fulfills you — why not?
with love, ella.

Will You Be Accepted Into Your Dream School? ✨ Dice Divination
reading done via dice divination (images included)
Tip Me on Ko-Fi :) ✨
$5 tarot readings ;)
pile 1
dice rolled: one, five, five
no you will not be accepted into your desired school, but you will be surrounded by different options and you will surely go down a different road as in get into a different school not the one thats on top of your list. I'm getting an energy of you just being surrounded by all of these different options and choices for schools and so many different roads opening for you. There is a chance that you even have multiple dream schools that you have and you are just surrounded by all these different pathways and opportunities, its a fortunate position to be in but also paralyzing. Make sure to think hard on what you want and whats the best option for you.
pile 2
dice rolled: one, one, five,
no you will not attend your desired school but instead you will actively choose a different school than the one that's your top choice, I feel you will choose one that is better for you and you will go down a different route most likely because you yourself has decided to change it. Whatever it is your current desired school will not be your desired school for long as you will think long and hard about your choices in the near future and apply somewhere else for whatever reason specifically because you chose not to go to your desired school.
pile 3
dice rolled: two, three, three
if you work incredibly hard at your goal and you are very determined then you will likely be able to go to your desired school. However there will be alot of hard work for you and if you procrasinate or you don't meet the standards that yes will start dwindling, you will be able to but it may also require alot of commitment like possibly moving away from the people you love or possibly having to end any friendships or romantic relationships because of the commitment to your desired school, and i'm getting an energy of distance and moving away from something with the double three's. Basically you will be able to get into your desired school but you must commit, and make sure to think if this is what you really want so you can commit fully to it and achieve your goals.

🔮 Color in the Tarot 🔮
Red
Passion, courage, action, desire, and life force.
Characters dressed in red often represent energy and assertiveness, like the Magician. Red can also indicate challenges that require strength, as seen in the red sky of the Ten of Swords.
Examples:
The Magician: Wears a red robe, symbolizing willpower and creative drive.
The Lovers: The angel’s red wings represent passion and the life force guiding the union.
The Emperor: Sits on a red throne, indicating authority and control.
Eight of Wands: The red sky reflects energy and swift action.
Orange
Energy, enthusiasm, creativity, and transformation.
In the Strength card, the orange background suggests a creative force and life energy. Orange also appears in the clothing of characters, connecting them to vitality, ambition, and the balance between instincts and higher consciousness.
Examples:
Strength: The orange background signifies vitality, creative power, and gentle courage.
The Sun: The orange banner held by the child represents joy, energy, and life force.
Eight of Pentacles: The orange clothing shows enthusiasm for one’s craft.
Three of Wands: The orange landscape represents anticipation of growth.
Yellow
Optimism, enlightenment, intellect, and joy.
The yellow sky in the Sun card reflects positivity and clarity. Yellow also appears in characters like the Fool and the Magician, representing potential and enlightenment.
Examples:
The Sun: The bright yellow sun in this card symbolizes joy and clarity.
The Fool: Yellow background conveys optimism and enlightenment on his journey.
The Magician: Yellow background emphasizes clarity and the spark of creation.
Page of Pentacles: Yellow field suggests excitement for new beginnings.
Green
Growth, fertility, nature, and healing.
Green landscapes or clothing, like in the Empress, symbolize abundance and growth. Green connects cards to the natural world and suggests fertility and healing.
Examples:
The Empress: Sits in a green field, representing fertility, nurturing, and abundance.
Knight of Pentacles: The green landscape reflects growth and stability.
Two of Pentacles: Green background hints at flexibility needed for balanced growth.
Four of Wands: Greenery around indicates celebration and flourishing community.
Blue
Calm, intuition, truth, and the subconscious.
The High Priestess’s blue robe represents spiritual insight and calm intuition, while blue skies or backgrounds offer a sense of calm and openness.
Examples:
The High Priestess: Her blue robe reflects intuition and divine wisdom.
Temperance: The angel wears blue, symbolizing harmony and balance.
The Chariot: Blue tunic represents emotional stability guiding the journey.
Six of Swords: Blue water symbolizes an emotional journey toward peace.
Grayish Blue
Introspection, doubt, contemplation.
Grayish-blue is found in the sky of cards like the Four of Swords, representing introspection, solitude, or recovery. It conveys a contemplative or restful mood, balancing between blue’s calmness and gray’s neutrality.
Examples:
Four of Swords: Grayish blue setting represents solitude, rest, and introspection.
Eight of Cups: The grayish-blue background conveys resignation and moving on.
The Moon: The pathway and mountains have gray-blue tones, reflecting mystery.
Five of Cups: The sky is grayish-blue, showing the emotional tone of loss.
Indigo (Dark Purple)
Deep spiritual insight, psychic ability, inner wisdom.
Seen in elements like the High Priestess’s robe, indigo connects the character to deep intuition and esoteric knowledge, enhancing the mystery and spiritual wisdom within certain cards.
Examples:
The High Priestess: Her indigo robe represents her connection to spiritual mysteries.
The Hierophant: Wears deep purple, symbolizing spiritual authority and wisdom.
Justice: The purple robe conveys her wisdom in judging fairly and impartially.
King of Cups: His robe is dark purple, showing wisdom in compassion and empathy.
Purple
Wisdom, spirituality, power, and divine connection.
The Hierophant often wears purple, symbolizing spiritual authority. Purple in a card indicates deep spiritual awareness or power.
Examples:
The Hierophant: Wears purple to indicate spiritual authority.
Justice: Wears purple, symbolizing fairness and insight.
The Empress: The purple robe shows her powerful connection to earthly and spiritual realms.
King of Cups: Purple clothing reflects his compassion and emotional wisdom.
Pink
Love, compassion, kindness, and gentleness.
Although not as common, subtle pink hues can appear in the sunrise or flowers (like those in the Ten of Cups) and suggest harmony, unconditional love, and emotional warmth.
Examples:
The Ten of Cups: Pinkish sky reflects family love and happiness.
The Lovers: Subtle pink in the background evokes unconditional love.
Two of Cups: Pinkish hues symbolize the beginning of a heartfelt connection.
The Empress: Pink flowers enhance her nurturing and loving nature.
Brown
Earthiness, grounding, practical concerns, stability.
Seen in earthy scenes or clothing, like the brown soil in the Suit of Pentacles, brown connects cards to the physical world and practical matters. It often represents the grounding force of nature and tangible, reliable outcomes.
Examples:
Knight of Pentacles: Brown ground and horse signify grounded and practical action.
The Hanged Man: Brown tree shows his connection to the physical world.
Four of Pentacles: Brown elements symbolize focus on material stability.
Ten of Wands: Brown earth underfoot represents work and responsibilities.
White
Purity, truth, spiritual insight, innocence.
Often seen in robes or skies, white suggests purity of intention, spiritual connection, or clarity. For example, the Fool wears a white tunic, indicating innocence and potential.
Examples:
The Fool: Wears a white tunic, indicating innocence and openness.
The High Priestess: Sits between white pillars, showing clarity in spiritual knowledge.
The Ace of Cups: The white dove symbolizes divine love and purity.
Death: The horse Death rides is white, representing purity in transformation.
Gray
Neutrality, stability, transition.
Gray skies or backgrounds, like in the Tower card, represent moments of upheaval where clarity is yet to come. It’s often seen in cards that show indecision or transformation.
Examples:
The Tower: Gray clouds represent transition and instability.
Eight of Cups: The figure walks into gray, showing resignation in moving on.
Four of Swords: Gray chapel interior suggests contemplation.
The Moon: The gray path reflects uncertainty and mystery.
Black
Mystery, endings, transformation, the unknown.
Black backgrounds or elements, as in the Death card, don’t necessarily signify something negative; rather, they indicate transformation or the unseen.
Examples:
Death: Black armor and flag signify the mystery of transformation.
The Hermit: Black cloak shows his connection to inner wisdom and solitude.
Nine of Swords: Black background conveys anxiety and darker emotions.
The Devil: Black background represents the shadow self and material entrapment.
Silver
Moon energy, intuition, reflection.
Silver isn’t as prominent in RWS but can be inferred in some moonlit scenes and water reflections. It suggests the reflective, intuitive qualities of lunar energy and enhances the feminine or receptive aspects of certain cards.
Examples:
The Moon: Hints of silver in the moonlight reflect mystery and intuition.
The High Priestess: Implied silver elements suggest intuition and inner wisdom.
Ace of Cups: The reflective silver waters represent emotional depth and divine love.
Queen of Swords: Silver-gray clouds reflect clarity and intuition guiding judgment.
Gold
Divine wisdom, abundance, wealth, enlightenment.
Gold appears in the halos of cards like the Hierophant and the Temperance angel, symbolizing spiritual illumination. Golden objects, like the pentacles in the Suit of Pentacles, represent material and spiritual wealth, success, and abundance.
Examples:
The Hierophant: Holds a golden staff, representing spiritual wisdom.
Nine of Pentacles: The coins represent material success.
Ace of Pentacles: Golden coin shows material and spiritual prosperity.
Temperance: Golden path in the background signifies enlightenment.

This person is quite introspective and likes to self assess their past and current behaviors and habits. They acknowledge their past mistakes and always tries to make their selves a better person. Your future spouse may have gone through some major transformations or life changing events in their life which has opened up a new side to them. They had a wake up call/awakening that has truly brung about changes , yet positive changes into their life. They are always up to date and looking for unforgettable moments to experience. They always remember what happened to them in the past but prefer to live life openly and confidently in the future. They are always changing so you must be open to change and accept their transformative ways. They seem to like to be isolated a lot or requires a good amount of space. They may like to take vacations or could also like to sleep a lot. This person is very calm and non-confrontational. Through experiences, they have learned to get along with many different personalities and therefore make great friends and partners. It’s hard to get under your FS skin. They know how to keep their composure and try to always find solutions. If you are into that toxic type of love, trust this person will change all of that or it’s possible you need to choose another pile lol because this person is NOT having none of that. This person may daydream a lot or can always be detached from reality at times. They are a wishful thinker but can tend to be blind to red flags or illusions that they create in their mind.

❤️🔥 PILE 2:

❤️🔥: Your future spouse is someone who sees the bigger picture and understands how the Universe works. They are very wise and scholarly. They are someone with substance and are not afraid to put in the efforts and get their hands dirty. They are hard workers who tend to get promoted quite quickly or advance in their career very fast as well. This person is quite confident and have a positive attitude. They may love to travel the world or their job may consist of traveling. They are very adventurous people. This person is well educated and can be relied upon or trusted. I’m seeing a downside to this person though. They are very sneaky / secretive so either the relationship will be kept under wraps or you just won’t know everything about this person. This person is quite clever, ambitious and daring but not stupid. This is the type of person that will always be 10 steps ahead. This person may have a hard time with dealing with obligations and responsibilities or just seems to run away from their problems preferably through work or study. This person may tend to take the easy way out of things and hides from the truth. I do see that this person is very strategic though and may like to do things alone or be alone at times. This person definitely keeps their plans secret. They may try to run away from a lot of things or situations that they would rather not deal with. But hey, everybody has their pros and cons. Your future spouse is very financially abundant; well off/wealthy. They definitely worked their behinds off to build such a stable foundation. This person is quite successful and has a great work ethic. They are good with both money and people. They are good in business, patient, stable , secure and a hard worker. This person will definitely go the extra mile with you. But working may be a priority for them so keep that in mind. Your person is highly intuitive and has an expanded awareness. They can be risk takers who are willing to gamble with life in hopes of being lucky. Though this person tends to attract love pretty easily. This person is a true chameleon , always changing and evolving. You can expect alot of expansion in different areas with this person.

❤️🔥 PILE 3:
Cards Pulled: Five of Swords, Knight of Cups, Page of Wands, Eight of Pentacles
❤️🔥: Your future spouse is a rough and tough person with a competitive mentality who wants to win at all cost. Take from that which you may 👀. This can be considered a bully attribute perhaps not with you but with others. Please keep that in mind. This person can be quite a handful and this can very much so be an inner battle within this person. This person can be quite manipulative and conflict-driven. I’m definitely seeing possessive and jealousy issues here. So expect to be only for them and them only. I definitely would pay close attention to that. This person may tend to be in the middle of conflict or drama and they may be uncomfortable when competition steps at their doorstep. You should never put this person in a position where they will have to compete for you and your love. Again, take this information as you please. This person has a mentality of “ get others, or others will get them” . This person feels like people are always out to get them. This person knows how to use people’s weaknesses against them. I’m sorry but it’s giving NARCISSISTIC. On a brighter note, this person is good with their words, witty and intellectual. But I’m seeing that this person might LOVE BOMB you. They are hopeless romantics but only for their own pleasures… not for you… Honestly I would steer clear from this person .. this could be someone you already know . This person knows the right things to say and the right things to do and that fits into their game of manipulation. I’m seeing a very adventurous but childish energy here. This is someone who is not ready for commitment and it’s very possible that cheating can be at bay. I’m more concerned on why you are attracting an individual like this Pile 4. But not everyone is perfect and sometimes we tend to run into those bad apples. I do see that this person is a hard worker , always perfecting their craft and reaping the benefits of doing so. They are goal oriented people and rarely ever procrastinate. Your future spouse is someone who knows how to get stuff done. A relationship with this person is definitely a hell of a ride. Prepare for the thrill because there is always some tricks up this person’s sleeve. I’m seeing more lust than love coming from this connection. For those who chose this pile, please pay attention to the red flags and avoid this person. Typing this has literally got me sick to my stomach. It’s time for you to step out your comfort zone and leave the “bad boy” type alone because trust.. you will get your heart broken many times until you start truly knowing your worth and letting go of these type of people. Good luck. 🫠
Characteristics: Narcissistic, manipulative , goal-oriented, egotistic, adventurous , childish, Water Sign ( Scorpio, Pisces), Air Sign (Aquarius), Fire Sign ( Aries, Sagittarius), Earth Sign ( Virgo) tattoos, neat, wavy hair, muscular, thin, professional, CEO, financial advisor, banker, corporate, firefighter, doctor, fitness instructor

❤️🔥 PILE 4:
Cards Pulled: Four of Cups, Five of Pentacles, The Star, Five of Wands
❤️🔥: Your future spouse may struggle with being discontent and stagnant in life. They are not very optimistic which can lead them to missing out on many opportunities. This person is quite unmotivated and may need an extra push to pursue after their goals and happiness. This could very much be their current energy right now where they are in a stage in their life where things aren’t sunshine and rainbows. But the good thing about this, is that this can change and they can evolve from this. They may be too focused on what is not working out for them rather than appreciating and focusing on all the good that they have. They may have a tendency of never being satisfied. Though they do feel very alone in this world and can be quite pessimistic , they are still pretty hopeful people and have a bit of faith that things can change which is their driving force to keep pushing as of now. This may be a depressed individual and someone who may have fear of abandonment issues. This person tends to feel like an outsider and may always seem to be in a bit of a crisis. This is someone who feels as if they are always on the back end and their luck is out of reach. This person feels as though something vital is missing in their life, but they do not know how to change it. Your person is often overwhelmed and requires help from others to stay afloat. This could stem alot of negative emotions amongst this person.. like anger, sadness etc. You just might be the light at the end of the tunnel for this person though. They definitely had a hard life but I do see that this person will come out on the other end with great hope and determination. It just will take time and faith. This person is quite gentle, magnetic and creative. This person isn’t afraid to be vulnerable. Your future spouse is willing to be open and will share their feelings often. This person is quite dreamy and romantic. They possibly get lost into their own world/bubble since that’s the only way they truly feel safe. They are highly sensitive to the needs of others and will strive to satisfy others’ needs before their own. They just are very nice people despite their challenges. No matter what life has thrown at them , they still want to be a light to others even if they struggle to do that for themselves. This person is a lost soul who a searching for themselves and for meaning in life. I do see low self esteem and they constantly doubt themselves but they will keep pushing even with the world on their shoulders. Apart of them , has hope and that hope is what’s keeping them here. They have big hearts and are quite compassionate.
Characteristics: Intelligent, gentle, hopeless romantic, humanitarian, compassionate, big-heartedness. Fire Sign ( Leo ) , Air Sign ( Aquarius ), Earth Sign ( Taurus) , Water Sign ( Cancer ), caramel skin-tone, long hair , curly/wavy hair, freckles, brown eyes, manager, dog Walker, chef, Uber driver, cashier/waiter, artist, songwriter.

"Holiness Hoodoo: Rediscovering Ancestral Roots Without Jesus"
The term "Holiness Hoodoo" may leave some people puzzled, so allow me to clarify its meaning. In my view, Holiness Hoodoo represents a return to the traditional practices of my ancestral lineage, a way to decipher who I am and what my purpose entails. Many of our forebears were devout Christians, and this undeniable fact forms the backdrop of my spiritual journey. Despite the complex relationship that many Black Americans have with the Bible due to the scars of slavery, it's essential to remember that it wasn't the Bible itself that caused harm, but the people wielding it as a tool of oppression.
As I delved deeper into the realms of ancestral magic, I began to notice striking parallels with church practices. To some, I seemed too "churchy" for hoodoo, and to others, too "hoodoo" for the church—there appeared to be no middle ground. However, I've come to understand that my connection to my ancestors is the cornerstone of my spiritual practice. I've realized that perhaps the reason some individuals struggle to communicate with their spirits is that they try to venerate them through African traditions, tarot, or other methods their ancestors might not recognize.
The Bible, as a potent tool in hoodoo, is not revered because we live by its teachings but because it contains powerful scriptures. My mother, for instance, believed in Jesus, yet she was a practitioner of hoodoo—a tongue-speaking, spirit-conjuring woman. Her approach, which I now embrace, is what I refer to as "Holiness Hoodoo."
So, what does Holiness Hoodoo look like for me?
1. Setting the Atmosphere:
I play inspirational or gospel music that resonates with my specific needs, allowing it to fill my home as I clean, pray, or perform spiritual work. Gospel music serves as a direct conduit to my ancestral spirits, and sometimes, when I hear a song I haven't listened to in a while, an ancestor's presence is assured.
2. Keeping a Bible on the Altar:
While I don't read the Bible frequently, I keep it open to the Psalms as an offering to my spirits. The Bible also serves as a powerful tool of protection, and specific verses and pages can function as talismans and petitions.
3. Baptisms:
Baptism, in my lineage, is a ritual practice to wash ourselves of sins and start anew. It's not just for babies; it can also cleanse generational curses and traumas passed down from parents.
4. Shouting:
Listening to gospel music, I engage in the practice of shouting, a form of ecstatic dance that connects me with my spirits. This practice fills me with light and often results in downloads of ancestral wisdom.
5. Laying of Hands:
I perform the laying of hands, a practice I'll discuss in more detail in the future. It's distinct from Reiki and is a significant part of my spiritual tradition.
6. Fasting:
Fasting is a part of my spiritual practice, serving as a means of both elevating my spiritual consciousness and cleansing my body. I firmly believe that one's health plays a pivotal role in their spiritual journey.
Holiness Hoodoo is about preserving the traditions of our ancestors and finding connections with them. It doesn't rely on dogma or strict religious doctrine; instead, it is a pathway to tap into the wisdom and spirituality that has been passed down through generations. In this practice, there is no room for being "too churchy" or "too hoodoo"—it's about embracing the rich tapestry of our heritage and harnessing it for a profound and authentic spiritual experience.

🥀Book Review: Persephone's Pathway: Wisdom, Magick & Growth by Jennifer Heather
Full Title: Persephone's Pathway: Wisdom, Magick, Growth Author: Jennifer Heather Published by: Heather Publishing (seemingly self published) 2020 Good Reads: Link My Quick Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) stars. Persephone’s Pathway which while flawed and at times meandering is perhaps the best resource available for the modern pagan worshipping or working with Persephone and I wholly recommend it. Official Blurb: Persephone's Pathway is one of balance and duality; embrace the dual goddess archetype of Underworld Queen and Spring Maiden in order to achieve harmony. This book shares the wisdom of Persephone, along with spells and rituals to help you in your daily life. Shadow work exercises encourage you to work with the Underworld aspect of the Dark Goddess, whilst flower magick celebrates the joy and gentleness of the Spring Goddess. Blend the dark and light aspects together to experience how they shine a light on each other in this celebration of wholeness and authenticity. Personal Reason for Purchasing: Was looking for a pagan/witchy perspective on Persephone and stubbled across this one. (Bought from Amazon UK)
Overview of the book's contents. Introduction: A solid introduction, focusing on what the purpose of this book will be, and the author’s goals in writing it, namely ‘an exploration of the mythology and Symbolism surrounding Persephone, along with chapters dedicated to a facet of what she can teach us’, ‘both a collection of information and tribute to her’. Chapter 1: 'Who is Persephone': Introduction to Persephone, her role, dual nature, The Eleusinian mysteries, possible connections to Erishkegal (a mesopotamia goddess originating 4000 BC), and of course the Homeric Hymn to Demeter. Chapter 2: 'Historic Origins': An exploration of the genesis of Persephone in Mythology, through to the Evolution of her story in present day literature. (A personal highlight). Chapter 3: 'A Myth Retold': A modern retelling of the hymn to Demeter by the author. Chapter 4: 'Symbolism': An exploration of the artefacts associated with Persephone, both modern and ancient, the creation of a unique glyph/sigil for Persephone and an extensive and detailed discussion of association/correspondences, some ancient, some contemporary and lastly her common epithets. Chapter 5: 'Creating an Altar': A collection of suggestions and guidelines on creating your own altar for Persephone and common offerings to gift the Goddess. Chapter 6: 'Persephone Magick: Begins with a basic beginners to magickal practice, followed by a recipe for a Persephone Anointing oils, a guide to connecting to Persephone, an innovation and an adaption of the Orphic Hymn to Proserpina.
The Seeds of Persephone A collection of chapters surrounding what the Author considers to be the six core aspects/values which Persephone embodies. Seed 1: 'Union': Focuses on Shadow-work, divine alignment for body and Spirit union, and includes a spell for Spiritual union of lovers, guidance surrounding meditation, shadow-work rituals, and a recipe for a love attraction oil. Seed 2: 'Balance': Begins with a discussion of how to, and the importance of maintaining balance in one’s life, including a meandering discussion of grounding, living with the seasons, incorporating nature into your life, meditation, seasonal altars, self-care, massage, and yoga. Lastly it includes recipes for a Persephone Beauty Elixer’ cream/lotion, a medicinal tonic, a spell for resolution, and a spell for making a decision. Seed 3: 'Intuition': Looks at ways to develop one’s intuition, including an outline for a Persephone focused Lithomancy technique (10 planetary stones, 6 Persephone stones (named for each of the author’s ‘Seeds’: Fertility, Justice, Balance, Union, Sovereignty and Intuition), three tarot spreads and the script for a guided meditation. Seed 4: 'Sovereignty': Is a discussion of [personal Sovereignty, and self-esteem, with journal prompts. Guidance on enchanting a power talisman, and a spell for protecting personal boundaries. Seed 5: 'Justice': Focuses heavily on Persephone in her Queen of the Underworld Aspect, touching on several myths in which she acted as a Purveyor of justice, (Orpheus and Psyche, and a discussion on Trust in regards to the Goddess. Followed by Several spells for truth telling, reflection on behaviour and fair resolutions. Seed 6: 'Fertility': Focuses on Persephone's Spring/Maiden Aspect. Followed by a discussion of Maiden goddesses, Flower Magick, creating Floral elixirs, cleansing sprays, a flower bathing ritual, and spell jars/Witch’s bottles. Followed by the Associations/correspondences and finally a script of a guided meditation, to meet Persephone in her Spring Aspect. Appendix: The Orphic hymn to Proserpina, translated by Taylor Thomas 1792.
Personal Thoughts and Review. I’m conflicted about this book. The first half is an excellent primer on Persephone and including her into one’s personal practice however, the second half the ‘Seeds of Persephone’ are at times Meandering, unfocused and clumsy, but there are jewels among the ramblings.
The book appears to be self published, so I’m inclined to be kinder to the Author than I would otherwise be; however, Persephone’s Pathway could really use reformatting (text justified etc), and would benefit immensely from an informed and passionate editor. Nevertheless this book is an excellent edition to the libraries of those of us who work with Persephone.
Aspects in detail. General content: The first half goes over a lot of content around Persephone, in some detail and is appropriately referenced through allowing the reader to research further. The Second half (the Seeds) is a mixed bag and approaches certain subjects extremely casually, namely Shadow-work and herbal medicine. Persephone’s correspondences: Primarily contained to Chapter 4, the Correspondences are in depth, reference and diverse. However, there are inaccuracies, the most obvious is a mention of Corn/Maize being cut as a part of the Eleusinian Mysteries. As a New World crop Corn was not in ancient Greece at the time and as such has no historical connection to the Mysteries. From my own understanding the crop cut during the Mysteries was likely Barley, a grain though to have great significance to the Eleusinian Mysteries as a part of the hallucinogenic cocktail thought to be drunk by initiates, barley is also part of the offering given by Oddyseus to summon Persephone (“first with milk and honey, then with sweet wine, then with water; and sprinkle white barley-meal above”). Rituals and Spells: It’s Always interesting to see another practitioner's approach, and covering a very broad scope although, I wish they were indexed since they appear throughout the book. Origin Myth retelling: An interesting retelling, possibly my favourite version, however it is not without flaws. Guided Meditations: Enjoyable and Interesting, these scripts approach many aspects of Persephone’s Mythos. Journaling Prompts: These appear seemingly at random in the latter half of the book, but are nevertheless thought provoking. Recommended Reading: While good to see, it is worthy of note that none of these books reference Persephone, Hellenic Polytheism, or Shadow-work. Which are the topics I would like to see additional material given some of my concerns with the book itself. Bibliography: Extensive and good practice.
The Seeds in Detail. Given their significance to the book I’ll review these chapters separately: Union: a clumsy chapter whose advice on Shadow-work is surface level and possibly dangerous for a beginner or someone who is mentally vulnerable. But this chapter does handle the topic of Love workings with the required levity. Balance: Waffling and honestly feels like filler, of the seeds this one is disappointing and feels like lost potential. Intuition: a major highlight of the book, a detailed exploration of Lithomancy, well written and thought provoking. Sovereignty: A good chapter, if a little long winded. Justice: Spectacular, discussion of Queen Persephone and of how to connect to the Underworld Aspect. A personal highlight. Fertility: An excellent close to the book but desperately needs reformatting.
Final Thoughts. I wholly recommend this book especially as a gateway into working with or worshipping Persephone. Despite its flaws, it is the best resource I’ve found on Persephone from a pagan/witch perspective, and my practice is better for reading it.

PICK A CARD General Reading (September 2-8)
Disclaimer: Only take what resonates and leave the rest behind. I am only posting this reading on profiles I’ve listed on my Linktree (https://linktr.ee/carinasibila) – all other profiles that might post it are fake. Decks used in this reading: Kitty Kahane Tarot Blue Bird Lenormand* Original Kipper Cards** PILE 1 Knight of Cups, Scythe*, Coffin** Back of the deck: The Emperor You’ve been wanting to gain more control over your life and are about to/planning to get rid of a number of things that you feel are in the way. The cards counsel you that you should take a breather this week and reflect whether some of these things only look impractical but don’t actually distract/hinder you; you’re about to throw out stuff that would still add value to your life and thus should be kept! PILE 2 Page of Wands, Clouds*, Pathway** Back of the deck: The Lovers You’ve been trying to decide whether you should start doing something or not but are hesitating because you fear there’ll be a tough/long road ahead of you. The cards imply that, if it’s something you truly want, this week is an opportune time to take the first step – don’t focus on how long/difficult the process will be but instead on what inspires you to take on this challenge in the first place. PILE 3 Page of Pentacles, Mature Man*, Journey** Back of the deck: Queen of Cups If you’ve been feeling a bit down lately, the cards show that it would be a good idea to take some time for recreation this week. In order to choose the best type of recreational activity for your specific situation, you might want to get advice – perhaps from a book, or from someone who knows you well and is familiar with your situation and individual needs.
