It will get cold again eventually. The summer will not last forever. I’m not doomed to live in this unbearable heat for all eternity. <- said while gripping the countertop so hard that the tile is starting to crack

somewhere out there right now is a kid with curly hair being raised by people who have wavy hair at best and those people are giving them 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner and telling them to dry brush it. and that kid is gonna spend all of middle school and high school hating their hair and moping over the flat iron. they're being told right now that if they don't dry-brush their curl pattern into oblivion every morning it means they're unkempt and gross even though they naturally have the kind of ringlets that a thousand bridezillas would commit horrible murders for every june. it's happening right now it's an absolute epidemic and a tragedy every time

So I made an fma themed tarot spread because why not???

I don’t know if this kind of thing has been done before! I don’t claim to know if the information is accurate — it’s mostly theory based on some loose research. Also the symbols used in the canon transmutation circle are really different so it’s more or less guesswork on what’s what. I think it makes sense though??

Let me know if you use this, and if it’s insightful!

Human Transmutation Tarot Spread

The human transmutation circle appears to be made up of two parts: the Three Primes (Cards 1-3) in a triangle, and the Seven Metals of Ancients (Cards 4-9) in the outer circle.

The Three Primes

In Alchemy, “Tria Prima” refers to the three fundamental elements that constitute all matter. They are sulfur (anima - the soul), mercury (spiritus - the spirit) and salt (corpus - the body).

The Primes are related to the Law of the Triangle - in which two components (All) come together to make a third (One). All is One, One is All, get it-?

1.) Sulfur (soul) - Emotional matters

2.) Mercury (spirit) - Intellectual matters

3.) Salt (body) - Material matters

The Seven Metals

The seven* metals represent the different stages of transmutation. They are also symbolic of different aspects of the universe and the human experience; and associated with the planets.

4.) Gold / Sun - Ego, Conscious

5.) Silver / Moon - Subconscious

6.) Copper / Venus - Love

7.) Iron / Mars - Strength, Conflict

8.) Tin / Jupiter - Growth

9.) Lead / Saturn - Limitations, Responsibilities

*The metal mercury is not included because it is already accounted for in the Tria Prima, this is I assume to avoid redundancy.

My mom kept complaining that all of a sudden the Beatles are back and they're fucking everywhere and they're so obnoxious and were practically having an orgy in her garden under a cucumber leaf and that's when I realized she meant spotted cucumber beetles and not Paul McCartney
