VI The Lovers: An ant fetching sugar from an aphid.

V The Hierophant: two weaver ants have folded a leaf and sealed it with silk]

ROUGH WEEKEND bc… being an adult is hard

but anyway… managed to pull these cards into existence. I’ve been deciding which card to work on by pulling a random card and it’s interesting. I haven’t heard from the Thorax/Pentacle suit yet so I wonder what they’re waiting for.

Mandibles are currently the suit with the most cards representing them (3 whole cards wowzers)

And… also I’m probably gonna change the titles on the major arcana. I think new titles would make the intended meanings of this deck more clear. But for now, I’m leaving the more common titles until I figure out the cards’ names.

Pick a card - Career Advice

(Escolha uma carta - Conselho de Carreira)

If you want a reading on your energy, just schedule a paid reading with me in DM!

(Se quiser uma leitura na sua energia, basta agendar uma leitura paga comigo na DM!)

If that found you, it was for a reason. Take what resonates and leave what doesn’t resonate.

(Se isso encontrou você, é por uma razão. Pegue o que ressoar e deixe o que não ressoa.)

Card 1 - Maybe you are from the sign of the earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), the advice you need to know is that you need to evaluate your position in society. But what kind of position? Your willingness to help people and the ability to receive, also evaluate your available resources. In other words, you need to seek balance in these two energies. Maybe you've been giving yourself too much and haven't received anything in return. Maybe you have received too much and are not doing anything in return. It is to seek balance and be assertive in the evaluations, especially in your career. If you are changing careers, evaluate the pros and cons or if you are changing jobs, evaluate if you are giving yourself too much and the salary is not compensating or if you do a lot for that co-worker who asks too much and does not give you anything in return or if you are the one who asks too much and does not donate anything in return. Just evaluate this and understand the limits and set limits and evaluate your attitudes and people's attitudes depending on the situation and find a balance.)

(Carta 1 - Talvez você seja do signo de terra (Touro, Virgem, Capricornio), o conselho que você precisa saber é que você precisa avaliar a sua posição na sociedade. Mas que tipo de posição? A sua disponibilidade em ajudar as pessoas e a capacidade de receber, também avaliar os seus recursos disponiveis. Ou seja você precisa buscar equilíbrio nessas duas energias. Talvez você venha se doando demais e não tem recebido nada em troca. Talvez você tenha recebido demais e não está fazendo nada em troca. É buscar o equilibrio e ser assertivo nas avaliações principalmente em sua carreira. Se estiver mudando de carreira, avalie os pros e contras ou se estiver mudando de emprego, avalie se você está se doando demais e o salário não está compensando ou se voce faz muito por aquele colega de trabalho que pede demais e não te da nada em troca ou se você está sendo aquele que pede demais e não doa nada em troca. Basta avaliar isso e entender os limites e estabelecer limites e avaliar suas atitudes e as atitudes das pessoas dependendo da situação e encontrar um equilibrio.)

Card 2 - It may be time for you to let yourself go, be inactive and wait. Because you need to observe things from a different perspective and find alternative solutions in relation to a particular situation of your career or in your career in general or about your job or about your career-related studies and to know what can be done.

(Carta 2: Pode ser que chegou a hora de você se deixar ir, ficar inativo e esperar. Pois é preciso você observe as coisas em uma perspectiva diferente e encontrar soluções alternativas em relação a uma determinada situação da sua carreira ou em sua carreira em geral ou sobre o seu emprego ou sobre os seus estudos relacionados a carreiras e para saber o que pode ser feito.)

wahoo I got more cards done, shoutout to Thun for saying The Tower should be a tree, that was galaxy brained for a billion reasons

[coriander-candlesticks]

I've felt like I should check in with Apollo the past few days and finally managed to clear enough space on my floor to feel alright with breaking out the tarot deck again so I did! Lit his candle, said as as formal a prayer as I could muster beforehand, asked Hermes to help with communication, the whole shebang. For further context: I've been wanting to ask Aphrodite something specific (also via tarot, it's the most grounding tool I've got) but I only have the one deck at the moment and, while I've used it to ask Hermes about things in tandem with Apollo, and Aphrodite introduced herself via it (with a card that also introduced Apollo), I wasn't sure if it would be cool for me to use it to ask her specifically something not in direct tandem with Apollo. I mentioned that in the prayer but also said that that might be a question for a different session, since trying to get an answer to that (on top of the general "hey how are we doing/do you have anything you want me to learn") might muddy my ability to understand the message.

Cue twelve cards falling out of my deck/poking out while I was shuffling. I usually pull ~3 cards on top of whatever falls out, but I ended up not feeling like it was needed. Seven of them fell out face-up, too.

Despite having some concerns about whether all of the cards were "supposed" to be pulled, it was pretty coherent! And covered quite a few things I've been thinking about recently, including sorting out anxiety vs a warning/displeasure, a follow-up of a card that was the focus of my last pull, and a reminder to look at outside/intellectual sources to combat the whatever-the-fuck-my-brain's-on. There were four cards that fell out face-up together in a pile: a card I associate with Apollo at the front and one associated with Artemis (the Moon) at the back, with cards related to unity & growth in the middle. I'd had a pretty bad experience attempting an offering to Artemis last month and have stepped back and avoided asking her for anything or specifically invoking her in prayers/offerings/etc. since (except for once when it involved a pregnant friend b/c it seemed odd and tbh a little disrespectful to ask Apollo for help and not her as well) because I took it as a sign that she didn't want me to work with her. I'm also aware, though, that that bad experience could have just been a meltdown/panic attack. Regardless of whether it was either of those two things, a "hey slow down" warning, or a combination, it was nice to have some clear reassurance & an official introduction. It's also significant, I think, that part of the Moon card's message is about not letting anxiety/"self-deception" (direct from the guide) cloud your intuition. I've been wanting to burn the candle I dedicated to her for a few days now- it's possible that was a sign from her as well.

As far as the deck-use question...the first card that fell out was the Empress (face-up, reversed). My initial thought was that it was a "no", but I decided to look at the meaning in case it wasn't that which was. probably a bad idea. It freaked me out a bit because I couldn't figure out what it was referring to. I ended up using my alphabet oracle tiles for a makeshift yes/no system after finishing with all the other cards and got clear confirmation that my instinct was, in fact, correct.

All in all it was really cool?? By far the most cards I've had in one pill iirc, and a good lesson in identifying how my intuition works.

Ten of Stingers: ten little red ants emerge from the spout of a teapot ]

Some more cards that I’ve finished* this week!

I’m enjoying doing this by pulling random cards from my other decks. Adds excitement of “who am I gonna draw today”. But also the cards with several ants on them? Soul-sucking to do the lines on and if I was choosing the order, I’d put the nines and tens off as long as humanly possibly lmao

* will likely tweak when the deck is nearer to completion but y’know

[midnightmonarchs]

Finally completed the burnt tree!! Glad I took the time. I was on the fence about it but I love it. I’m not happy with the fruit tree but I’m not sure why. 🤔

SIX OF CANES

The Six of Canes is a card of victory, recognition, and the sweet taste of success after a hard-fought battle. In The Skeleton Tarot Deck, this card captures the moment when a figure returns home, parades through town wearing the adornments of their achievements. It's saying, your efforts have paid off and you stand tall, knowing that you’ve overcome obstacles and earned your place in the spotlight. It’s a card of triumph, where the struggles of the Five of Canes have been left behind, and the path ahead is clear and bright.

When the Six of Canes appears, it’s a sign that you’re on the right track, that your hard work and determination have brought you to a place of achievement. This isn’t just about personal victory—it’s also about being recognized by others, receiving the accolades and appreciation that come from a job well done. Whether it’s in your personal life, career, or creative endeavors, this card signals a moment of success, a time to bask in the glow of your accomplishments.

But the Six of Canes isn’t just about individual triumph. It’s also a reminder that success is sweeter when it’s shared. This card encourages you to acknowledge the community that supported you along the way, to recognize the collective effort that helped you reach this point. It’s a moment to celebrate not just for yourself, but with others, to lift up those around you and share the joy of victory.

In the context of community and change, the Six of Canes speaks to the power of collective success. It’s a reminder that true victory isn’t just about one person standing tall—it’s about lifting others as you rise, creating a ripple effect of positivity and progress. This card invites you to use your success as a platform for inspiring and supporting others, turning your individual win into a collective celebration.

WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN THE SIX OF CANES APPEARS:

Victory and Recognition: Reflect on the successes you’ve achieved. How can you celebrate your accomplishments while remaining humble and grateful?

Community Celebration: Consider the role others played in your journey. How can you share your success with those who supported you?

Leadership and Inspiration: With recognition comes responsibility. How can you use your success to inspire and uplift others?

Sustaining Success: Think about how you can maintain the momentum of your achievements. What steps can you take to build on your current success?

WHEN THE SIX OF CANES SHOWS UP IN REVERSE:

Delayed Recognition: Reversed, the Six of Canes may indicate that recognition is coming, but it might be delayed or not as grand as expected. How can you remain patient and keep pushing forward?

Self-Doubt: You might be questioning your worthiness of success. Are you downplaying your achievements? How can you acknowledge your hard work and give yourself the credit you deserve?

Isolation in Victory: Perhaps you’re enjoying success but feeling isolated. Are you sharing your victories with others, or are you standing alone on the podium?

Misuse of Power: Be mindful of how you use the recognition and success you’ve gained. Are you uplifting others or using your position for personal gain?

The Six of Canes is a card of triumph, recognition, and the joy that comes with success. It encourages you to celebrate your victories, both big and small, and to remember that success is even more meaningful when it’s shared. As you stand in your moment of glory, take a moment to lift others up, creating a wave of positive change that extends beyond your own achievements.

New free post about my Empress tarot card up on my patreon :)

I think I love this one so much because it vaguely reminds me of Spice and Wolf. It’s gotta be the wheat and apples + dog.
