How to Predict Timing with Tarot

When performing the Celtic Cross, there are three positions that can reveal when the event will happen: The Advice, The Ultimate Outcome, and The Underworld. Acknowledge all these possibilities. But your intuition will tell you which is most likely.

THE MAJOR ARCANA

The Fool – Whenever you are ready

The Magician – It has already begun

The High Priestess – You know exactly when

The Empress – During harvest season

The Emperor – It is almost done

The Hierophant – It is finished

The Lovers – As soon as you make the choice

The Chariot – In just a few moments

Strength – The minute you accept it

The Hermit – Only after you meditate on it

The Wheel of Fortune – During your first or next Saturn Return

Justice – When you least expect it

The Hanged Man – When the circumstances change

Death – Whenever it is ready

Temperance – After the storm

The Devil – It is happening right now

The Tower – Soon, unexpectedly and suddenly

The Star – The more you believe, the sooner it will happen

The Moon – It cannot be determined at the moment

The Sun – In the summer or by sunrise

Judgement – Soon and inevitably

The World – In divine timing

Queen of Pentacles – End of December to most of January

To Help You Remember:

Wands are days, because they are fire, and fire moves fast.

Swords are weeks, because while a sword is quick to cut, it first requires some thinking on the warrior’s part.

Cups are months, because they are water, and water flows with the moon, which completes a cycle in roughly a month.

Pentacles are seasons to years, because they are seeds, and some seeds only require a season to grow while others need a year.

The timings for the Major Arcana and the Pages are related to the cards’ meanings. Once you know the meanings, you know the timings.

The Kings, Queens and Knights are the Zodiac signs’ birthdays:

King of Wands – Leo (Fixed Fire)

Queen of Wands – Aries (Cardinal Fire)

Knight of Wands – Sagittarius (Mutable Fire)

King of Cups – Scorpio (Fixed Water)

Queen of Cups – Cancer (Cardinal Water)

Knight of Cups – Pisces (Mutable Water)

King of Swords – Aquarius (Fixed Air)

Queen of Swords – Libra (Cardinal Air)

Knight of Swords – Gemini (Mutable Air)

King of Pentacles – Taurus (Fixed Earth)

Queen of Pentacles – Capricorn (Cardinal Earth)

Knight of Pentacles – Virgo (Mutable Earth)

DIY Knit Snake Scarf Free Pattern

This is my attempt at a realistic Pseudonaja affinis, an elapid snake common in Western Australia. This was a requested design by a herpetologist studying these snakes for her PhD. The color Sequoia looks the most realistic for this snake which is sometimes called a Spotted Brown Snake

The 12 inch tail is knit like cord starting with very small needles. Most of the snake is stockinette worked back and forth. The head is knit in the round and requires a little hand sewing with a scrap of some non-fraying fabric similar in color to your yarn. You need some polyfill and eyes. I also added a patch of leather inside the head for shaping.

Knit this Snake Scarf by Barbara Tomlinson from Beachton.com. Find the PDF pattern on her website here, or on Ravelry here.

Did not expect to be called out like that🤭🤭🤭

what type of lonely are you?

rb with your results

[sheneophyte]

Thank you Diana for being the only one here brave enough to voice out difficult truths about witchcraft. Yes, in my experience too even the kindly fae hurt weak willed witches as you call them. A fickle witch is like a fickle boyfriend. You'll make the fae feel like they're in an unstable connection, like they can't trust you! So please, guys, don't talk to an entity if you're just gonna be afraid of them after!

Past Life Memories Spell

A spell to help you further dive into the memories of one of your particular past lives. 

Note: this spell is to be used when you know about one of your past lives in more detail. It doesn’t work very well if you are unaware of any of your past lives, instead check out this spell to help you discover a past life first or this tarot spread.

You Will Need:

🔮 Rosemary (preferably dried) 🔮 Jasmine (preferably dried or tea) 🔮 Marigold (preferably dried) 🔮 Dream Quartz (clear quartz can replace it) 🔮 Amethyst  🔮 Labrodite 🔮 Malachite 🔮 White Feathers (about 2) 🔮 Pen or Pencil 🔮 Lined paper cut in smaller sections (thirds of a page should be good) 🔮 Jar with sealing lid 🔮 Purple String or Ribbon

Steps:

🔮 On your pieces of lined paper at the top of each write down these titles: The Life, The Now, The Memory. Under “The Life” write down which past life you wish to learn more about. In this section write down whatever you may know about this past life already in example if you know in your past life you wish to explore you were a male priest who lived during the 1800s, write that down. Under “The Now” write down who you are now and how it relates to your past. If in that past life you were a priest and now you are no longer religious at all and you feel it was because of that life, write it down. Anything you feel that may correlate write down here. Under “The Memory” write down what sort of memory you wish to dream about or memories, you can make a list if you desire. This can include early life, later life, bad memories, good memories, a purposeful memory, a turning point, etc. 

🔮 Once you have everything written down set them aside.

🔮 In your jar add in your herbs at the bottom then on top add your crystals.

🔮 Take your pieces of paper and fold them or roll them however you wish and place them into the jar and on top of them add your 2 white feathers

🔮 Hold the jar in your hands and focus on your desire to explore the past memories of your past life. “In this jar I seal my desire, to relive memories long forgotten.” And gently (please gently, you do not want herbs and paper and feathers flying into your face) blow softly into the jar focusing on adding your own energy to this jar. Seal it tightly

🔮 Around the lid or lip of the jar tie your purple ribbon to magically seal it with your intention

🔮 Keep jar near, above or under bed and keep a dream journal close by as well. Record all dreams you have come morning

To dream about other past lives or memories open the jar and replace the paper with new ones and re-add your energy to it. Cleanse jar occasionally in the moonlight, especially before resealing with the new desires.

[sheneophyte]

Lady Di, I've been taking your advice on how to strenghten your intuition and thank you a lot because it's been working really really well for me! But one of your advice was to assign people to tarot to memorize the cards better, and I was wondering if you could please suggest more on that? I'm pretty new to tarot and so I don't know if the people assignments I made are correct or far from the real meanings of the cards. Thanks so much!

The Major Arcana as Real People in Your Life

Remembering the cards’ essence becomes easier when you do not think of them as strangers.

The Fool

Your tactless but well-meaning friend. Rarely thinks before they act or speak.

The Magician

Your problem-solver friend. Great at DIYs. Intelligent. Puts themselves first.

The High Priestess

Your mysterious teacher, aunt or professor. Confident. Tends to speak in riddles.

The Empress

The gorgeous and loving mom. Looks younger than her age. Always smiling.

The Emperor

The distant father. Military. Formal. More authoritative than caring or nurturing.

The Hierophant

A conservative and traditional person. May have a problem with gay marriage.

The Lovers

The perfect couple. Not too flirty with each other. They share a deep, quiet love.

The Chariot

Your athletic brother, friend or cousin. Agile. Ambitious, go-getter, achiever.

Strength

Someone who has both a big ego and yet a deep kindness at the same time.

The Hermit

Your single uncle, aunt or friend who is completely content and happy about it.

Wheel of Fortune

The luckiest person ever. Always wins at contests and comes home with prizes.

Justice

Never jumps to conclusions, and wants to hear the other side of the story first.

The Hanged Man

The New Ager who always talks about crystals, meditation, the law of attraction.

Death

The daredevil. Someone who believes there are far worse things than dying.

Temperance

The one who never seems excited about anything. But they are not a downer.

The Devil

The openly racist, sexist or classist one in your midst. Obsessed with hatred.

The Tower

The brutally frank friend or the bully. Destroys the peace wherever they go.

The Star

The person with the biggest dreams. Wants to become rich and famous.

The Moon

A depressed person or a mystic. They are more inwards than interactive.

The Sun

The happiest child or adult you know. Sweet and joyful. Has a contagious laugh.

Judgement

The grandparent or the mentor. Someone wise and mature; strict and stern.

The World

The most successful person you know. Wealthy or is some sort of a celebrity.

For whatever reason. Right now as of uhhhh Friday March 27, of 2020, within the quarantine of COVID-19 you are most likely want to garden in order to feed your family as you want to save money from the grocery store. And to ya know. feed your family.

SO. Here’s some YouTube videos. Mainly from this one YouTuber since she runs her own farm. She talks about what to grow and how to grow as well as saving seeds. (Trust me, saving seeds is better in the long run.) You can also regrow kitchen scraps too if you feel like you’re unable to get any proper seeds. And for fun have a post apocalyptic type garden.
