When two people meet, each one is changed by the other so you’ve got two new people.

the fact that once a year we just put the clocks forward an hour and say that’s how it’s gonna be for 6 months, and then put it back an hour and say that’s how it’s gonna be now is actual proof that time does not exist and is purely a social construct that means literally nothing

I finally published a lil spell book and I’m in love with how it turned out ♡

Inside Candi's head currently

Why is it so hard for me to remain myself in a relationship. I guess at certain parts of my life it's just hard for me to remain myself no matter what. But I find that when I am alone I feel different than when I am with others. I realize that alone time is vital for my mental health, but I am not good at giving myself enough of it. I need to get back to focusing on myself, I feel like this is an on going struggle and constantly reflects onto my relationships and causes issues that shouldn't exist. I have been doing a lot of self reflecting lately. I need to escape to the mountains.

Rest, nature, books, music… such is my idea of happiness.

Leo Tolstoy (via fyp-philosophy)

I fell in love with you not knowing what love really was. I stayed in love with you because no one else made me feel the way you did.I still fall in love with you everyday because there’s no one I picture my future with other than you

First random though post of 2017

I have been doing a lot of thinking here these last few days, and not enough doing.  That’s not to say that I haven’t been doing things, I have been relatively busy, but I’m not necessarily as present as I would like to be.  My boyfriend was/is out of town over New Years, in Utah for a snowboarding trip.  I have been staying at his place a lot lately, I quit my job, I am currently searching for a replacement, and wanting to move closer to the town he lives in, for more reasons than him.  So for New Years I went out dancing with his roommate (which is a female), which was pretty fun.  I hadn’t been dancing in a while, and it was nice to get all dressed up and have girl time.  Since moving to a new state, I haven’t really been socializing enough, so I haven’t made too many friends.  Outside of my boyfriend’s roommate, and their friends. So I have really been missing my friends and girl time.  Which I used to have a lot of.  But I am making small steps towards improving myself and my thoughts.  I have been struggling with them for awhile.  Which was one reason that I moved.  I needed new faces, places and opportunities so that I could grow and work towards the person and life that I want.  I have learned so much about myself over the last few months, and I have grown in many ways.  I want that to continue forever. I found a hula hoop group that meets in the city that I spend most of my time, so soon I will join one of their get together’s, I am sure it will be easy for me to make friends there.  My main goal right meow is just finding a job and doing yoga and work outs on the daily.  I need to be more expressive, so I need to make time to hula hoop and write more often, and get back to reading books often like I used to. These are all things that I always work on doing more of, no matter how often I do them, or what time of the year that it is.  I am always working on bettering and improving my life and myself.  This is something we should never stop doing, striving to be a better person than we were the day before.  When I start to notice myself judging myself often, or having frequent negative thoughts, that’s when I know that I am holding too much in and not accepting my feelings for what they are.  I am working on accepting my emotions in their current state and being okay with feeling a little out of control sometimes.  I am a work in progress, always, because I am always working on becoming a better version of myself.  I have to go clean my boyfriends apartment before he gets home tomorrow.. There is glitter in every room, everywhere, from his roommate and I from New Years. We covered out hair in glitter, and he hates glitter. :) Make your life awesome and enjoy every minute of it. Much love <3

A compilation of Halloween themed tarot card spreads I’ve created, learned from friends, and found on the Aeclectic Tarot Forums. These can certainly be used with other types of divination decks as well. Happy October!

I set down three pairs of cards, mirrored over an imagined horizon line. The first pair, Life and Death, asks the two questions I hold at the core of most of my readings. What do I need to move towards and embrace? What do I need to let go of and cut from my life?

The second pair, Courage and Fear, contrasts the fears I manage well with the fears I repress and avoid. Where in life am I brave? Which fears do I openly face and manage with skill? What fears am I less skilled at navigating? What do I need to shed light on and tackle next?  

The final pair, Celebration and Contemplation, acknowledges the odd dual nature of holidays that jumble festivity and solemnity together. What do I have to celebrate? How can I let go and squeeze the most joy out of this moment? What requires more sober reflection from me? What do I have to meditate on? If you’re in a period of mourning, you could use the sixth card to reflect on what and how you grieve.
